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
-

Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, EnglandTime to ditch @vmbusiness I think, unreliable service & weak support
-
Mark Connolly (@macon1375) reported from Crayford, England@virginmedia Of course. I’ve done everything required of me: I was told it’s caused by my home move and the disconnection due on 12th. Things seem to have been prematurely actioned affecting my signal

Nick Tippett (@nicktippett) reported from Croydon, England@virginmedia Pre install was yesterday with technician linking my house to virgin and ever since I've had no Internet from my current provider. spoke with pre install last night, and today, total of 4 handlers then cust. Service with no resolution and nobody wanting to deal with it now!

#AshTag (@Ashley_Rhysss) reported from Southwark, EnglandThe service from @virginmedia is utterly dreadful. Had Wi-Fi issues so they sent someone out to rectify. Worked for 2 days then the same issues started again. Not had working Wi-Fi for the last 3 weeks. If your thinking of going with them for tv / internet, go with someone else.

Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia Though I am dyslexic I have painstakingly done this on multiple devices and have photos to show It - not posting them publicly but it does not recognise that password 😢 A search on line suggests the problem is not unique. I have one hour to call the manufacturer if you advice.

DragonFish 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇮🇹 (@discobabe76) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia No as I look after an elderly lady with parkinsons on Thursdays which means she doesn't get to get out of the house if I don't see her. So it's booked in for Friday. What help doninhave till then? Or reimbursement? I'm free every day after 3pm & I'm free Tuesday all day
-
Declan Higgins ☘ (@declan1968) reported from Southwark, England@virginmedia What does an area outage mean? I pay Virgin about £150 a month for services. This is over the odds but I thought I was getting a reliable service and so went with it.

Joseph Sweeney (@JosephS65112253) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia I’m going into my 5 week of problems with this crap company they say they will investigate but nothing, no compensation nothing.
-
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 💔
-
Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from Sutton at Hone, EnglandAfter a mammoth session on the phone to 6 of your departments to arrange interim broadband given your service failed in Nov. & won't be fixed to March I spoke to a helpful chap called David in the Customer Care Dept before I was cut off. Can you help reconnect me @virginmedia 🙏🏻
-

Simon (@cleggy1966) reported@virginmedia customer service is an absolute shambles. Had an appointment with an engineer for this morning due to issues in HD4 and because the wider issue has been resolved, you cancelled my appointment and didn’t even tell me. I had a separate issue to the outage. Shocking

RPD Pacer (@rpd_pacer) reported@Cloverbeech @virginmedia Just checked. Their top range broadband is as much as my VM bundle. The service we get is really good, it's the absolutely shocking customer service that comes with it 🙄🙄🙄
-
TheseColorsDontRun (@truthtellerGB) reported@OliverGMcManus @virginmedia What’s more insane is that you are using Virgin Media. One of the worst service provider in the UK alongside O2.

GB Food Finder (@britfoodfinder) reported@virginmedia I have message you @virginmedia Looked at the amount of posts to you on this exact issue, it is obviously an ongoing for many of your customers. Please resolve for all? I am regretting now signing up for another 24 months contract. O2 was always seamless

megb (@Gbarch1) reported@virginmedia Our service in CM16 went down on Thursday 28th @ 10pm. Ridiculous 'updates' have been sent every few hours. The supposed fix is now 2nd June. What on earth is going on?
