    @virginmedia There were issues yesterday but we have been having problems for months and no one ever responds. I don’t believe you are sorry otherwise you would improve your customer service

    @virginmedia I am looking at feedback for a conference session I gave last week. ‘What will you take away?’ ‘Not a lot - sound was so bad I could not understand what was being said’ ‘What could we do to support you?’ ‘Support staff with better home internet’. Hope you’re proud.

    @virginmedia It never says what it is. The fix is always hours away. 3pm in this case. This isn’t acceptable in times most of us work from home.

  • TheSugg
    David Sugg (@TheSugg) reported from Gravesend, England

    @virginmedia hi I’ve received a written response to a complaint from VM but with no way to reply other than the usual customer service number which doesn’t offer an option for this. Can you supply another telephone number or physical address to reply to?

  • Jay_Hul
    J (@Jay_Hul) reported from Crayford, England

    @virginmedia Tbh it’s been ongoing since we locked down in April. I accepted things might be a struggle but as time has passed colleagues and friends are not struggling with day to day connection or having constant lapses in connections. Having spoke to CCare nothing can be done.

    Tracey Cookson (@cooki40) reported from City of London, England

    Well @virginmedia after being with you for 4 years I am disgusted that you want to charge me to leave!! Considering the landline has never worked during that time as well. People never use them, terrible service!!!

  • Gksharkar

    @virginmedia you’re losing customers here in DA146PW 6PW. What’s happening to our broadband service? Third drop out in last week

  • jakub_zalas
    Jakub Zalas (@jakub_zalas) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @virginmedia I know it is an outage. They’re far too common with you. There was not a single outage for the two years I’ve been using EE. It’s a third one within a month I’ve been with you.

  • GraceWaring22
    GRΔCΣ (@GraceWaring22) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I just want 2 speak 2 someone that will sort issues out ASAP without holding for an hour & more. App chat is non responsive. Beyond frustrated by no phone or broadband & terrible backup help support non existent. How can I fix this or please just cancel as had enough now.

  • GraceWaring22
    GRΔCΣ (@GraceWaring22) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Yep that’s funny. Really is. Do you not think I’ve not tried ringing you & only can do so on my mobile as no landline remember, on hold up to 40 mins+ & then cut off. You try it. It’s impossible to speak to a real person. WORST SERVICE EVER👎🏻

    @virginmedia Problems have been ongoing for months and months... you are however completely in denial to the customer that you are a complete waste of time to report faults to. Constantly blaming it on the consumer, even when thousands are on social media airing their issues

    @virginmedia I won't be extending my contract with you, after 25 years of being a customer, your constant lies and lack of resolution to the fault ( your infrastructure is to old) I will remove my account, my children's accounts and the 8 virgin sim cards our family are using.
