Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia I performed the reset, it still does not recognise the code. Very disappointed. On Wednesday I wasted 3 hours on the phone talking to 13 of your people one of whom brazenly told me to fix all issues I must buy an upgrade. I am sorry to say the whole experience is abysmal 💔

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
-
#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.
-
Will Jennings (@willjennings80) reported from Lambeth, England@virginmedia You're internet is down *again* in sw9 and your internet service checker page does not work on mobile phones
-
DragonFish 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇮🇹 (@discobabe76) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia 1/ I've been without internet access since last night. I called this morning at 830 and did reset as told, didn't work so was told it'd be passed on to network engineers and they'd get back to me if it didn't come back on within the hour.
-
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.
-
Andrew Battle (@andy_s_battle) reported from East Ham, England@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
-
Mark Connolly (@macon1375) reported from Crayford, England@virginmedia Hah really @virginmedia been trying live chat since 8am and now call but on hold for ages!! Is not on. Causing issues with my work!! #worstbroadband
-
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
-
Andrew Battle (@andy_s_battle) reported from East Ham, England@virginmedia But cutting people off to enforce this is unethical, besides no previous communication has indicated this and the solution is not convenient with where they want to do this and no suggestion to reposition my hub
-

-
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?

The Navigator (@Navigator429) reported@virginmedia hi. I am an ex customer of yours but it seems my account is still active.
