    @virginmedia No effort is made to rectify the problem they just want to change to VOIP with no regard to a customer who spends over £1200 a bear for all devices, I wonder what offcom would think

    Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, England

    @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness Ah, so when there will be nothing to do or see you will become interested, is that the customer service ethos at VMB? Staggering, but not surprising

    @virginmedia Broadband down again this morning in SE London, got through to customer services and they advised the outage expected to be fixed by 12th April. No compensation offered and I would have to pay a penalty to cancel my contract.

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

    @virginmedia Obviously i don't have proof because your site doesn't say send recorded so why would i, my number was ported in July and I wrote same time, I have no reason to not send letter and you can see from any data usage that I stopped using your service

  • leighbooker
    Leigh Booker 🐈‍⬛ 3.5% #FBPE #FBPPR #GTTO (@leighbooker) reported from Welling, England

    @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.

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

    @virginmedia 9/ speak but he kept interrupting me. He had no help for me for having no internet for 6 days. He kept sighing and refused to put me through to anyone who could offer anymore help.

  • 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?

  • drummerJ83
    Jay Bourley (@drummerJ83) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia Hi, the VMGo app is telling me I need to upgrade to watch live tv but I’ve got the right package to have access and have until today watched live via the app. Is there an issue? Tried restarting it etc.

  • nicktippett
    Nick Tippett (@nicktippett) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia Might I add that the last handler in pre install stated he was a 'senior' and he was incredibly rude, talking over me and trying to tell me what my problem was!

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

    @virginmedia I've covered all the options; there aren't many. It tells me there are no problems in my area and then defaults to the bot chat.

    Tony Kinson (@mrkinski) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    After the long outage overnight, @virginmedia was back online but is now down again. Any chance of you fixing it before we all need our connection for work in the morning? Asking for all your disgruntled customers. #VirginMediaDown

  • 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.

  • PieFaceMark

    Absolute nightmare with @virginmedia arranging new package. Since agreeing package deal yesterday I've received FOUR different emails telling me I'm gonna be paying four different amounts, all higher than what was agreed. Absolutely terrible customer service and real headache

    @entrustTMF @virginmedia Terrible situation for that long. I'm looking at a voda offer at the mo for switching from virgin when my deal expires. They offer a router with 4g back up. It's weather your can get decent speeds where you are that matters.

    MissHeadShotTV (@MsHeadshot) reported

    @virginmedia We want to sign up but you are saying there is already a order with this address and that you would contact us and you never did.

  • entrustTMF
    entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported

    @virginmedia Seems fair comment-they aren't sensible! Googled "how effective making complaints to @virginmedia is" and came up with some very negative feedback culminating in: "customer feedback AND regulatory data suggest their handling of complaints is often seen as inadequate" Oh dear🙁

    @JONEZZEEonMMA @GameRiot Having been with virgin media previously, Id have killed to have my internet only be down for four hours. I remember one summer we only HAD internet for 4 hours. Shocking service.

  • pepetideo
    CrankyGeek (@pepetideo) reported

    @virginmedia ok... here is some feedback. Fire the person that has thought aquirering new customers is more important than keeping the ones you got and rewarding them. Secondly fire the person that is handeling disconnections. They singlehandely made me a never again costumer. You could not pay me to return
