  • rjedwards_btone Robert-John Edwards (@rjedwards_btone) reported from Melton Mowbray, England

    @virginmedia Just do you know. Gone to @Plusnet Cheaper and their customer service from first hand experience before makes yours look amateur.

  • rjedwards_btone Robert-John Edwards (@rjedwards_btone) reported from Melton Mowbray, England

    @virginmedia Oh and I’ve just spoken to your tech team after holding for half an hour. Apparently it’s going to be down for 5 DAYS!!!! FIIIVVE!!!!!!! I’m done. I can’t even get through to cancellations.

  • rjedwards_btone Robert-John Edwards (@rjedwards_btone) reported from Melton Mowbray, England

    @virginmedia Nope. Wasn’t given one. See what I mean about the quality of the service. :-(

  • rjedwards_btone Robert-John Edwards (@rjedwards_btone) reported from Melton Mowbray, England

    @virginmedia Cancellation affected. Leaving you’re shoddy company on 3/8. A complete Waste of my time. How terribly disappointing that a company with your reputation and with whom I was a happy customer years ago has decended to this shambolic state.

  • rjedwards_btone Robert-John Edwards (@rjedwards_btone) reported from Melton Mowbray, England

    @virginmedia Because this internet I pay for with blood doesn’t work I’ve got to wait till Tuesday for an engineer and I’ve waiting months to watch the Indy500 and Monaco GP. I paid MONEY to watch them. And can I speak to a British call centre and get customer relations. Can I hell!!!

  • rjedwards_btone Robert-John Edwards (@rjedwards_btone) reported from Melton Mowbray, England

    @virginmedia He’s still fixing it: currently replacing the entire installation as it was done incorrectly 21 months ago. And yes, regarding a complaint that was raised.

  • rjedwards_btone Robert-John Edwards (@rjedwards_btone) reported from Melton Mowbray, England

    @virginmedia Faulty installation. Incorrect signal noise which seems permanently unstable. Oh and your hub seems to overheat. Formal complaint finally able to be raised.

  • rjedwards_btone Robert-John Edwards (@rjedwards_btone) reported from Melton Mowbray, England

    @virginmedia Sat waiting for my third visit from a Virgin Media engineer. Hasn’t turned up. Because this is a high level complaint I was supposed to be priority. Also was supposed to have a phone call from a manager today. Also didn’t happen. 😡

  • rjedwards_btone Robert-John Edwards (@rjedwards_btone) reported from Melton Mowbray, England

    @virginmedia 1/2. Sadly it hasn’t solved the issue. I find myself again on a Saturday afternoon without Internet. I was going to use it to watch the champions league final with my now heartbroken 8 year old son!!! Technical team hung up on me!!! I’m appalled!!! Disgusting behaviour. ....

  • bradgatetc Bradgate T & C (@bradgatetc) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia ....just when you think your service can't get any worse...it does....wow you are a talented team 😠

  • GRODSTER Hayley Garrod (@GRODSTER) reported from Leicestershire, England

    Why do Virgin Media have to choose today of all days to 'improve' our service and leave us without any broadband or TV for the next 'few' hours 🙈 It had better be fixed and up and running in time for the England match or I will not be happy!! #Lionesses #FIFAWWC #Eng #ENGUSA

  • rjedwards_btone Robert-John Edwards (@rjedwards_btone) reported from Melton Mowbray, England

    @virginmedia Finally yes...only took days to be able to do. Doesn’t fix my internet, pay for my lost work or compensate for the many hours lost, the inability to watch the Champions League Final and Indy 500.

  • 7240Wood Darren Wood (@7240Wood) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia Finally answered after 18 minutes. Very long time to wait also have had a fault with my V6 box . Have arranged for a technician to come out and fix it.

  • rjedwards_btone Robert-John Edwards (@rjedwards_btone) reported from Melton Mowbray, England

    @virginmedia I would do if your team would actually answer the phone. I can’t even get through to blooming cancel!!! 😡😡😡😡

  • IrfhanFox Irfhan Mururajani (@IrfhanFox) reported from Leicestershire, England

    Anyone else having problems with @virginmedia and their admin team, or have you been sent a reminder saying you have a missed a payment (even though you pay by DD)...not happy😠

  • bradgatetc Bradgate T & C (@bradgatetc) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia whats happening to the Broadband in the LE5 area of Leicester....please fix this...😠🤯

  • rjedwards_btone Robert-John Edwards (@rjedwards_btone) reported from Melton Mowbray, England

    @virginmedia Cancellation affected. Leaving your shoddy company on 3/8. A complete Waste of my time. How terribly disappointing that a company with your reputation and with whom I was a happy customer years ago has decended to this shambolic state.

  • rjedwards_btone Robert-John Edwards (@rjedwards_btone) reported from Melton Mowbray, England

    @virginmedia I’ve already spoken to your tech team yesterday hence the engineer visit booked. But we be never used a service where I’ve had so many outages Ever. In 20 years of internet usage. Your company is an embarrassment. .As soon as my contract is up I’ll just survive on mobile data

  • gavincrowe MrNiceGuy (@gavincrowe) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia your broadband and TV packages are far too expensive for the services received. Yet AGAIN my HBB has gone down is as many days weeks and months. Reliability is terrible and I'm paying £121 and have just been told your putting it up AGAIN in September. Total Joke!

  • dylanjfarrell dylan james (@dylanjfarrell) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia @zzpete And your help page has crashed! Again it’s numerous people

    Anyone else NOT been notified of the price rise by @virginmedia ? Still waiting for Someone to call me back regarding my complaint after speaking to OfCom. Second year I've been lied to and after they said that my bill would stay the same price until end of contract 😡

  • davidallevy David Levy (@davidallevy) reported

    @virginmedia Thank you. But removing email access and saying the IT team will be in touch within 5 working days is not ok.....Do you or @Ofcom regard this as an acceptable level of service?

    @virginmedia You are a waste of time! I reported this on Monday. I was told they would monitor and to wait. I've called back many times since. It is now 4 X 24 hours since I reported this problem. And still you tell me to wait. This is beyond a joke! @VirginMediaCorp

  • PSTimJones Tim Jones (@PSTimJones) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, and called you 4 times and been told every time the issue is fixed, I now have had to raise a complaint in the hope it gets sorted.

  • moorcraftjohn johnmoorcraft (@moorcraftjohn) reported

    I note @richardbranson spends millions going to space. A little bit more investment in his @virginmedia customer services department might be better…if not for humanity then at least my personal sanity :D #leavingafter10yrs
