    smallpauldj (@SmallPaulDJ) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia I'm paying over 50 pounds just for 100mg broadband already! Why can a new customer get TV etc to for just 30? Conveniently the phone lines all seem off.

    Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Chadwell, England

    @virginmedia @VMO2News please with pay for someone capable to fix your custom super hub firmware or get rid of it! Hub5 won’t release IP addressed and your middle ware completely messes up Wi-Fi naming and password changes (even the first use one which isn’t even a change)

    @virginmedia could you explain to me why over 20 years of being a customer of yours counts for nothing you’d rather lose a loyal customer

    @virginmedia How can you cancel my contract whilst i am living in the house and take word from a stranger over the phone surely you have broken GDPR

    Michael Truefitt (@michaeltruefitt) reported from Chadwell, England

    @virginmedia Are you planning on giving all your customers a discount for your constant broadband issues and not delivering what people are paying for? I see it was fixed earlier but it’s gone down once again in the last hour. It seems to be a daily occurrence now.

    @virginmedia I'm not sure why, but our Internet and TV aren't currently working! No email to say work is being done. Online even says there's no issue which there clearly is. Area is LE2

    @virginmedia please help. I’m trying to reduce my mums package. She has Alzheimer’s disease. All she needs is a basic internet and phone . No tv. No Netflix. No TNT. For some reason every time I am offered a deal including all the things I do not need. Her bill is due to double

    @itvnews To be honest it is so difficult to speak to a human at @virginmedia I'm not surprised anyone could cancel their contracts. #virginmedia

  • Miss_Pumpkin666
    Autistic Pumpkin (@Miss_Pumpkin666) reported

    @virginmedia my wifi is incredibly slow. I tried to do a test via your app, but it couldn’t load the page to perform the test, so now im just stuck. Can’t play Ps5 because the internet is too slow to stream games, can’t even watch reels on facebook as it’s buffering every 5 secs

  • ConorSwifty
    Conor Swifty (@ConorSwifty) reported

    @virginmedia Hello Virgin I spoke to a really rude colleague of yours called Clarissa which I phoned up again & spoke to a really nice chap to do a complaint by how she talks & wants people to sign up to a £154pm contract as she didn't care about helping at all and kept going quite

  • tonymc39

    Pleased to see this - @virginmedia is a horrible company to deal with

  • BelfastBooks
    Belfast Books (@BelfastBooks) reported

    @TrevorM63275988 Having dealt with Virgin Media on behalf of clients for more than 20 years, I can say their customer service has changed dramatically. They now appear to rely heavily on contact deflection, a practice where customers are repeatedly directed towards web chat, FAQs and automated systems instead of being able to speak to a human adviser. While contact deflection is intended to reduce support costs, my experience is that it has reached the point where accessing a person has become unnecessarily difficult. I'll I'll be raising it with Ofcom under the complaint they have against them.

    El LOBO (@MrPigdenLOBO) reported

    @huckleberrydan @virginmedia Helllllloooooo, this is virgin media, if I could just have your bank account detailssssss, we can sort this right away. Do they have chat support? BT are brilliant for it.

  • UserrReb
    Reb (@UserrReb) reported

    Ofcom has ordered #VirginMedia to check that every affected customer who complained has received the compensation or other remedies to which they may be entitled within the next six months. A disgusting company that no-one should touch.
