  • adammcilrick Adam McIlrick (@adammcilrick) reported from Camden Town, England

    Hey @VirginMediaCorp and @virginmedia ... we waited for your engineer today - rearranged work schedules/meetings. Nothing. No call. No text. No email. No show! DM for our remedy number - this is absolutely #atrocious #customerservice. The #complaint will be escalated if no reply.

  • tonywiseman1976 Tony Wiseman (@tonywiseman1976) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I have better things to do with my time than phoning @virginmedia The system should pick up on this. Virgin’s system is quick to chase me regarding the return of a bloody hub. Absolutely atrocious service.

  • Ianharwooduk Ian Harwood (@Ianharwooduk) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia Your broadband is terrible. I am suppose to have 350meg and it is under 20 on speed test. Your customer service team are incompetent at best. Being told I was being put on hold while they try and sort the broadband out and the agent never came back and didn’t call me back either

  • Ianharwooduk Ian Harwood (@Ianharwooduk) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia I don’t need the app. I know there are black spots as I no signal in certain rooms. Are you trying to wind me up. As I have already said I am leaving. Direct debit has been cancelled and I have notified you in writing via this channel as no other way to contact you

  • tonywiseman1976 Tony Wiseman (@tonywiseman1976) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia The auto response system is terrible & apparently someone should have responded to my refund query & guess what? No one has bothered.

  • sumnerpom Matt 🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@sumnerpom) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia Oh look sound but no picture on at least I know the tv is ok as I can see the home and catch up menus. Service getting worse the more we pay

  • Joshbratt87 Joshua B (@Joshbratt87) reported from Camden Town, England

    As previously stated, anyone thinking of getting @virginmedia don't! They lie, never answer calls and don't turn up when promised. Utter crap from start to finish, all while their tax evading owner @richardbranson sits on some private Island reaping the benefits. Dog 💩 company

  • PeterToohey Peter (@PeterToohey) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    Don’t ya love your tv being down for the whole day during lockdown. Always the same with virgin media.

  • Ianharwooduk Ian Harwood (@Ianharwooduk) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia Supposed to have a 350 meg line. We get speeds of 20 Meg. The router keeps freezing. The router doesn’t reach all the rooms in the house. Internet connection drops regularly. Basically anything that could go wrong does. Terrible.

  • Ianharwooduk Ian Harwood (@Ianharwooduk) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia No just virgin being terrible. Hence why I want to leave. This is not just a one off. We have had these issues for months and your customer service is terrible as well. So I have had enough

  • TheRealMrDrew G (@TheRealMrDrew) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia That issue fixed itself. However, this evening we're getting the same problem. This has been going on for the past week on and off. I'm now told that the issue is estimated to be fixed by 2pm tomorrow - the service we've received from Virgin has been particularly poor of late

  • invisiblehive Pocket Tips (@invisiblehive) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia worst service now. Paying for a TiVo box and have had no wifi or TV working for nearly 9 months now. Have tried a booster now cannot get through to cs.

  • realjonconnor 🔥Jon Connor (No not that one) (@realjonconnor) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia It's not even about that. Even when there are no faults. I still get lag and disconnection issues. Very frustrating

  • chrisoregan chrisoregan (@chrisoregan) reported from Bromley, England

    @etdragon @virginmedia Yup, I suspect this may be the issue. Ah well, first world problem :(

  • hollyliba Holly B (@hollyliba) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia WHAT THE BLOODY HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU EFFING BLOODY INTERNET. We’re all working from home mid lockdown and have jobs to get done. Your service collapses all the effing time

  • Ianharwooduk Ian Harwood (@Ianharwooduk) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia Everything. Broadband is terrible. Slow. Unreliable. Your customer service is terrible. I am cancelling the direct debit now. I was on hold for over 1 hour trying to leave

  • KrLwsn Karl Lawson (@KrLwsn) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Please could you arrange for a customer service advisor to call me. I've been holding 56 minutes, and my line was cut off while speaking to a member of your team. Feel free to DM me for more information.

  • DeanCallan Dean Callan (@DeanCallan) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia Every night I lose internet, I might just stop the direct debit and see how long it takes you to fix that?

  • rob_green86 Rob Green Jnr (@rob_green86) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia Yea I do that and it says to reboot my Hub 3. Which I do and then get 15mb for 2 mins and then back to 4mb. Can you please DM me with a link to online tech support because I've already wasted 3 hours this week trying to get through on the phone.

  • Ianharwooduk Ian Harwood (@Ianharwooduk) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia No just virgin being terrible. Hence why I want to leave

  • HarveyThomasCFC Harvey-Thomas John Keegan (@HarveyThomasCFC) reported

    @O2 hey there just a quick concern when you eventually merge with @virginmedia will I have to change to a virgin media sim or will O2 as a company/network still exist

  • garethbright Gareth Bright (@garethbright) reported

    @virginmedia regarding my last tweet yesterday, it's still down. That's 16hrs now. How am I expected to work from home? No update, no customer service, it's the final straw...

  • mrsmunchiejones ally jones (@mrsmunchiejones) reported

    @virginmedia Why is the Internet down in Liverpool L14 area this is becoming a joke now

  • leigherin88 Leigh (@leigherin88) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve called three times and been promised a manager call back within the hours and it hasn’t happened. I’ve tweeted you for help and you told me to use the messenger service and they told me they couldn’t help. Your company will not help me.

  • andrea_crosby All About Hair (@andrea_crosby) reported

    @virginmedia is there a issue in Gu90ef

  • shazcow55 Shazcow55 (@shazcow55) reported

    And of course your engineer never called us back. Still have the issue. If not sorted today I'll be contacting your CEO & making a very big fuss. Would never recommend virgin media to anyone as your ability to sort out problems is diabolical

  • UFC_NEWS_UK UK UFC NEWS (@UFC_NEWS_UK) reported

    @virginmedia @richardbranson this is the service your company is now renowned for. Cut my connection due to a “blip” and I have to wait in a queue to be reconnected? How is there no process to correct your own mistakes? Worst still zero offer of any solutions or support. AVOID AVOID AVOID

  • garethbright Gareth Bright (@garethbright) reported

    Terrible service recently from @virginmedia . Previous poor quality of internet and equally poor customer service, followed up now with 16hrs of internet outage yesterday& today. #stayaway #virginmediadown #votewithyourwallet

  • ___adxm___ adam (@___adxm___) reported

    @virginmedia everyday the Internet connection goes. This time it's been down since 9pm and still no connection. Yet you're billing me full price each month when you're not providing the broadband service you say you can...

  • annaandchester Anna McLeod (@annaandchester) reported

    @virginmedia your recommendation of using the text service rather than phone is a poor one. Started at 6.30pm last night and by 10pm I was still dealing with the text bot. 162 texts in 3 and half hours between us and not 1 human response from your end. And the typo's 🙄
