    Simon Manning 🇪🇺 - SiManM20@mstdn.uk (@SiManM20) reported from Manchester, England

    @nrgloz @virginmedia Your paying 75% of what we are for 35% of the d/speed there. Neighbour has just switched to Brsk - it’s full #fttp so 1Gb both up/down rather than the 52Mb UL Virgin offer via DOCSIS. £40pm

    @virginmedia my broadband was “delivered” today by Yodel but the package is no where to be seen and wasn’t attempted (I’ve been in all day waiting). I can’t get any help from them, please help!! 😭

    @virginmedia I’m not a VM customer.

  • johnsonhomes2
    johnsonhomes (@johnsonhomes2) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia If that was the only issue than yes that would be the logical next step. But as you’ll see from the previous tweets and email sent on Wednesday it isn’t. All the issues need dealing with in the round or otherwise I’ll have to cancel and go back to sky.

    @virginmedia customer service is so ****. They just transfer you round to different departments

  • Miniboom2
    Rach (legacy fan) (@Miniboom2) reported from Salford, England

    Ah @virginmedia with this up and down service today you are really spoiling us!

  • _AdamGardiner
    Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia It’s everything connected via Wi-Fi. I don’t have the connect app. I check for service status on your website and it usually says there isn’t an issue, but that doesn’t reflect my service.

  • nathangreen101
    Nathan (@nathangreen101) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    Hi @virginmedia is there a particular reason your engineers phone to say they are here but never actually turn up?

  • Jakes_7
    Jacko (@Jakes_7) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @LeedsViking @virginmedia Ignore it mate, like their customer services will your question.

  • _AdamGardiner
    Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia Will they help if the Wi-Fi is working at the time I call? Because my issue is that when it is working, your advisors consider their work done despite telling them that it usually doesn’t last. And invariable, it doesn’t.

  • mark001282
    Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I've been a customer for 10 years. Is this how your treat your loyal customers?

  • sharper76
    Smyth Harper 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇺🇦☘️ (@sharper76) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia No it’s not, and it has now transpired that your customer services agent told me a direct lie that there was a fault in my area when there is not. Someone else has now booked an engineer to come out - next Wednesday. I can’t even have my heating on as that’s controlled vía wifi

  • HollowayAlec
    Alec Holloway (@HollowayAlec) reported from Stretford, England

    @virginmedia is unbelievable that our Internet is so poor, trying to contact someone via phone on numerous occasions waiting for over 45 minutes to speak with someone. Still haven't been able to get through to anyone.

    @virginmedia @richardbranson @VirginMediaCC unethical practice & worst cust serv.after 50 days of total loss of service and no resolution and taking 52 pounds for that period from me now they are denying compensation as well as refund of monies taken.

    @virginmedia No they’re helping. But it’s VERYYYY slow. But almost there.

    @Shredda @virginmedia Oh damn, that's peak. Might just be a coincidence then 🤔

  • martyn_driver
    Martyn The Driver (@martyn_driver) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia after 26 years as a loyal cable customer it is time to say goodbye. It would seem that loyalty is not rewarded, and you don't want low use customers

    @FuzziePieRat @virginmedia then their ignorant staff told me to go **** myself and hung up. I rang back and filed a complaint. Later that afternoon, got an email through to say complaint has been CLOSED! Left VM, never going back till they change their customer service agents

  • LubZafar
    Lubdub (@LubZafar) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve sent back my equipment in two phases. One was sent last year and you want to charge me again. You have a useless non contactable customer service so this needs to be resolved in one message

  • chibmanib
    Chib Ma Nib (@chibmanib) reported

    @virginmedia please sort your Internet services out. Its up and down all day and now I've been without wifi for 2 whole days

  • bigoltiddies
    Tigol (@bigoltiddies) reported

    @JU51LNS @TalkTalk It was never YOUR email, it belonged to TalkTalk and they simply rented it to you as a perk of being subscribed to their service. You've cancelled or are cancelling so they're no longer giving you a free email and instead asking you to pay. BT does/did the same. As did/does Sky. Virginmedia just straight delete the email address after 90 days. You're making a deal out of nothing. Pay the fiver a month and use the time to port out valuable emails by forwarding them to your other email then when you're confident you've got it all transferred, cancel the payment.

    @entrustTMF @virginmedia I got a ‘3’5g router that pulls down the 5g signal, it was as fast as my Virgin Media 200+gbps and more reliable. £25/month. If you’ve no 5g coverage starlink is offering £35 a month.
