@virginmedia [1/2]Other than my tv service being down for an entire month, I’ve had your customer service/faults/technical team pass me back and forth between yourselves acting as if I’ve reached a different department. All of whom have not helped me in the slightest. I’ve had 4 reps tell me

@virginmedia hello, our Internet has been down for over 4 hours now in Barking. Is there any update on this or when we can expect to have functional Internet back? Its not the first time this has happened and we're reaching the end of our tether!

@virginmedia There’s been no resolution whatsoever. And I’ve called 4/5 times a week since the 29th and have waited nothing less than 50 minutes to be given a run around. If I’m receiving half a service surely I could pay half my bill?

Any Virgin Media customers can tell me is it really that bad? I’ve a provisional install date for Fiber next month but keep seeing messages that it’s down more than up?

@virginmedia I’m tired of hearing I can’t speak to a manager and one will reach out, I’m also tired of hearing your complaint will be escalated and I’m tired of paying and getting half a service. What must happen now?

@simon_tabor @virginmedia My Virgin TV hasn’t been working since the 29th of July. They’ve “sent” 3 technicians, none of them have made it here. this is hands down the worst run service provider, with unethical, unhelpful customer service teams.

@BamBamSam92 @virginmedia Mate, best advice is sack them off and get another service. Go for BT rather.

@BORDERJOE @virginmedia Joseph, my best advice to you and your father is to leave Virgin for BT or any other service provider that acts ethically and cares for their customers which Virgin evidently doesn’t.

@virginmedia Well, I'm nearly certain my issues were caused or fixed by the gentleman in the Virgin Media van outside my residence. All seemed to be well yesterday afternoon and evening (and today so far).

@virginmedia are the complaints team able to reach out? Consistently given the run around by all your customer service reps, you guys are unethical and quite frankly don’t respect your customers enough to keep promises. Will be going to @Ofcom next.

@CateSevilla @virginmedia They then tried to fine me for not sending their 'hub' back and refused to refund the house move cost I'd paid a few months earlier. So so incompetent! SO stressful when all of us work from home too. I moved to TalkTalk & is cheaper and no problems so far, at least :)

(@playerhayer) reported
@virginmedia This has never happened MH. I think there is a massive disconnect in your (and mine!) expectations of basic customer service and experience and how virgin operate. My case is bounced around, no one owns it. I have to explain the issue again. We are closing in on 10hrs of calls.

Aman Hayer
(@playerhayer) reported
@virginmedia I have done this several times throughout August, it seems there is no accountable team or person looking at it and every person I speak to says they will own it but never does. Is there no complaints department I can speak to? I've even asked for a manager call back and get none

Had service issues with @virginmedia broadband since 25th July, still not fixed. Spoken to about 30 staff over the last 6 weeks, 4 engineers visits and one new hub. Request a deadlock letter for dispute resolution if you’re in this position ppl! Get help! They’re terrible!

@virginmedia I know that there is an issue. I need the person who knows when the internet will be back on to communicate with Virgin Media paying customers to advise when this will be. Not a link to a computer page that has given a dishonest answer for the past 24 hours
