    @virginmedia @virginmedia can have no rival to the worst customer service out there! Said resolved an issue after held for over an hour only to find it’s not and I now can’t get back in touch. 2nd day work ruined

  • Champs707007
    Stephen Champion (@Champs707007) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia It’s now showing there is a problem. It’s been going on for 3 days now being very intermittent but only just started showing there was a problem this morning

  • Biggsy58
    Bernie Biggs (@Biggsy58) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @virginmedia putting their tariffs up by 17.3% from 1st April - that’s 3.9% over the Retail Price Index Inflation of 13.4%…people getting nowhere near this sort of increase in their pay packets…hang your heads in shame especially in a cost of living crisis.

    @virginmedia what’s going on again with this internet at sw4? You just can’t fix a problem? Please don’t come up with your usual excuses and fix itttttt..

  • PJacksonClark
    #TeamParkinsons Paul (@PJacksonClark) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia Thanks KF for your speedy reply. But since "Frankie Bot" and I started chatting three hours ago via customer service chat I've been left waiting. Is that as good as it gets?

  • Ashley_Rhysss
    #AshTag (@Ashley_Rhysss) reported from Southwark, England

    The service from @virginmedia is utterly dreadful. Had Wi-Fi issues so they sent someone out to rectify. Worked for 2 days then the same issues started again. Not had working Wi-Fi for the last 3 weeks. If your thinking of going with them for tv / internet, go with someone else.

    After a mammoth session on the phone to 6 of your departments to arrange interim broadband given your service failed in Nov. & won't be fixed to March I spoke to a helpful chap called David in the Customer Care Dept before I was cut off. Can you help reconnect me @virginmedia 🙏🏻

  • Champion3Claire
    Claire Champion (@Champion3Claire) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia An explanation of the problem and what is being done would be a good start for customer service. Right now that’s sadly lacking. I hope there will be a £ reduction in the bill for the lack of service??

  • TravellingAdam

    @virginmedia my internet is constantly not working it’s really frustrating.

    @virginmedia It has just come back on. The annoying thing is your website said no problems, so I went through the usual, unplugging, checking cables etc. only for the website to be updated later. I should have learned by now.

    @virginmedia Please explain why your Virgin checker site was down too. Disgraceful

    Mitzy (@mihaialaci) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia They escalated my complaint,but looks like the package is not available to us.When my contact expires will definitely looking at other options as I don’t trust Virgin Media anymore

    Mark 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@WhiskyOneIce) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia Yes I have chased and chased and spent 4 hours today on WhatsApp, no advise just can't help because I have outstanding bill....no the line isn't active because it was ported over to Community Fibre on 8th July

    Pippa Crowther (@getpipfit) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia how much longer will services be out in SM1 1RB.. been since last night. No TV or WiFi.Service status check says you are aware. PLEASE

  • squeakytoy
    Steven Peterson 🏳️‍🌈 (@squeakytoy) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia I’ve now had to call again myself because the end of the business day is here and nobody ever called me back. What’s the resolution when nobody ever calls when they promise to?

  • declan1968
    Declan Higgins ☘ (@declan1968) reported from Southwark, England

    @virginmedia What does an area outage mean? I pay Virgin about £150 a month for services. This is over the odds but I thought I was getting a reliable service and so went with it.

  • timhyson
    Tim Hyson (@timhyson) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia 20 hours of being passed around your customer ‘care’ teams and no progress. And yet I doubt this is even close to a record.

  • discobabe76
    DragonFish 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇮🇹 (@discobabe76) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia 8/ have to pay if it came down to a third party router intimating that the fault was mine. No appointment till Thursday! I tried to explain that I care for an elderly lady and he wouldn't let me speak and kept interrupting me which was incredibly rude. I advised him to let me

    MeeMaaOnAMission (@spirit_evolving) reported

    Looks like a lot of people don’t have internet or tv @virginmedia all over the country. 4 the past 2 weeks the service has been diabolical yet @virginmedia have not issued a statement. I’m disabled & kids r gamers so looks like I’m about to switch providers. ANY RECOMMENDATIONS?
