mark (@PieFaceMark) reported from Poplar, EnglandAbsolute 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
-
Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, England@redheadlass1402 @virginmedia We’ve got the business service but it’s no better. They don’t seem to have any proactive monitoring or fault prevention and pretty much don’t care. They have a 3 hour service level that passed 12 hours ago, totally useless bunch of money-grabbers

Mark 🌈🏳️🌈 (@markselondon) reported from Blackheath, England@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.
-
Nick Tippett (@nicktippett) reported from Croydon, England@virginmedia Pre install Refused to acknowledge any wrong, wouldn't get anyone to even attempt to look till 24th, cust. Service refused to engage as pre installs problem, so am left still with no Internet and no way to sort issues, plus having been spoke to rudely

Hypocrisy Hunter (@HypocrisyHunta) reported@virginmedia @Benleo Ben will get back to you, his internet is down. AGAIN.
-
Uilleam Cameron 🏉 🏴 🇬🇧 🇦🇺 (@youlum) reported@Cryptic_Giraffe @BladeoftheS Hence my comment about a cheaper Starlink, which I’m sure I read is now on offer? And why is it cheaper in some of Europe? Subsidised service? Monopoly? I’ve CityFibre and Open Reach in my street and my provider is VirginMedia (I thought they had their own fibre?)
-
Mike (@Mikefromtheuk) reported@Benleo @virginmedia They are truly terrible. If you simply want an internet connection and you don't have any problems, you might be okay, but as soon as anything goes wrong you hit their awful customer service. I had intermittent problems and it took months to get resolved, I then went to Sky asap.
-
Kathy Miller (@KathyMi25429227) reported@virginmedia Appalling service. What is going on? Cannot speak to anyone...in and out of WiFi connection for a few days...Not on. Want a refund....
-
England My Country I Love You (@UpTheVibration) reported@jomickane @Benleo @virginmedia I've always found them to be really good, been with them years, never a problem, broadband connection is great - we're high usage, and this year they even emailed me to let me know they were keeping my existing discount when my contract was up, I usually renegotiate each time
-
CK (@chris_k_90) reported@Benleo @virginmedia One of the worst companies I've had to deal with as well, other than British Gas. I can't wait to leave when my contract ends.
-
Luke Flatley (@Badmeetsart197) reported@AaronHudsonUK @virginmedia My box is flashing blue and its down
