  • AndyTDEJ Andy H (@AndyTDEJ) reported from Dudley, England

    I think @virginmedia are attempting to outdo @TUIUK for the worst customer services . I’ve spent 45 mins on hold so far waiting to speak to a human . Doesn’t beat 3 and half hours trying Tui but bless Virgin they’re trying. Just appalling 👍

    @virginmedia I’m absolutely disgusted with the mobile messaging chat. I have been trying since 11:30am to speak to an advisor and still not getting anywhere. I’d now like to cancel my new order as I am disgusted with the customer service for a new mobile customer!!!

    And now you have been offline for over half a day with your website still saying there is no known issue?! I want to make an official complaint to both @virginmedia and @Ofcom , Your service is appalling and your customer service even worse.

  • benavfcfranklin Ben Franklin. (@benavfcfranklin) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia You can stick that. I suggest you fix the connection I’ve been having for weeks now, I can’t even load anything on my phone in the rook directly below. Before you ask I’ve done all the tests too then never heard back from you.

    @virginmedia Absolutely atrocious customer service! Waited for my Hub 4 to arrive as we are now paying for highest broadband, it arrives and has wrong power cable inside, phoned to sort, on hold for 20 mins then speak to someone who has IT issues and has put us on 40 mins hold!

  • benavfcfranklin Ben Franklin. (@benavfcfranklin) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia my WiFi is running at 3.4 download speed. This is the 3rd time I’ve contacted and done tests and still no fix has been made.

    Probably not going to be on here that much for the forseeable. Thanks to @virginmedia and their messed up attempt to 'improve their network' I'm going to be left without Broadband access until at least Monday afternoon and likely much longer than that.

  • Alan4nier Alan Fournier (@Alan4nier) reported

    @virginmedia She said it was your problem and would probably be fixed (remotely) in next 24 hours. I requested a call when it was fixed and she agreed. No mention of steps if it is not fixed. It’s still broken.

  • V1echa V1echa (@V1echa) reported

    @virginhelp @virginmedia broadband connection keeps dropping every minute. so what the hell i can do now? and there is no info about issues did test,restarted , turned off hub, and still nothing. did post @ community . but i think no one cares because its friday night(weekend)

  • jsi_greg Jesse Gregory (@jsi_greg) reported

    @virginmedia is genuinely bloody awful. I would never recommend because we NEVER have telly and they NEVER ANSWER THEIR PHONES!

  • EKSteeler Gary Anderson (@EKSteeler) reported

    @virginmedia this is the 6th time today wifi had gone down. Seriously get it sorted 😡

  • xLepebble Lep (@xLepebble) reported

    @virginmedia it went like 20 minutes ago, just been sat there watching some ronaldo lookalike shout suiii on tik tok live. back up now and will keep updating if it goes down again

  • Teganleaaa Teganlea (@Teganleaaa) reported

    @virginmedia The problem is every single time I call I’m passed from department to department and spend over 4 hours on the phone. I don’t have that time available

  • thenowschool Flip The Script Book (@thenowschool) reported

    @virginmedia Hi John, I moved address some years ago so the cable account is no longer active but the email address is. I managed to speak to an adviser today and was told the issue will hopefully be resolved by early next week or sooner - can you add any details? Thanks

  • donnykebab1972 Kieron Griffin (@donnykebab1972) reported

    @virginmedia @richardbranson Internet down again.

  • DreamSnakes Jamie (@DreamSnakes) reported

    @virginmedia really are useless. Every week I have some sort of internet connection issue. Then they have the gall to charge people £240 cancellation if they move to an area not covered by virgin. @joelycett was right. Virgin Media are by far the worst for bad internet.
