    @virginmedia been on live chat hold for nearly 30 minutes and it’s still saying 45 minutes wait as it did at the start. Not very good customer service since pandemic.

    @virginmedia absolute disgrace, shocking customer service/experience. By bill still isn't sorted can't believe the clowns you pay a wage to #theft #fraud I also have a bill for you for my time wasted on this it's currently £650, it will be arriving at your offices Monday morning

    @virginmedia No. I’m done with text, on line and anything except talking to someone. You’ve had the opportunity using the bot, Twitter and online support, now we need to communicate in person. #realpeople

    @virginmedia I’m currently a Virgin Mobike customer but I will be emigrating to Canada mid-term in my contract. Is there any way I can get out of my contract without a cancellation fee?

  • lizdixon77
    Liz (@lizdixon77) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia Have done it both ways. It isn’t just the speed it is dropping out completely for long periods of time and the staff in your call centres are if no help unless you want to buy a new service and you do not get promised calls back.

  • b17yvw
    Billy Patel (@b17yvw) reported from Birstall, England

    @virginmedia I am a very disappointed customer I was on hold for 15 mins finally spoke to a advisor on the retention team who placed me on hold and then the call dropped on hold again now and it’s been 30mins and no answer 😔

    @virginmedia So whilst on the phone you put us through to get a dongle as an emergency and you tried to charge us £39! Wow the cheek of it!

  • JessLeighA
    Jess Adams (@JessLeighA) reported from Ketteringham, England

    @Jake_BHughes @virginmedia apparently we have a blockage where they need to connect us, which is what we would need fixing by thursday. being that unreliable we decided to cancel everything with them fully. a shame because what they offered was great. customer service department is not easy to get round 😭

  • MatthewWalne
    Matthew Walne MCSI (@MatthewWalne) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia I just never get anywhere, constantly going around in circles and no one seems capable or willing to help. The broadband kit provided isn’t fit for purpose considering how much I pay for it.

  • NimeshDave7
    Nimfresh.exe (@NimeshDave7) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia @vmbusiness why does my RTC internet connection disconnect every hour and connect 10 seconds later? It’s been happening for weeks, every hour it will go down for 10 seconds then reconnect??!?!? It’s problematic for my work!

  • MatthewWalne
    Matthew Walne MCSI (@MatthewWalne) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia I’ve re-run the tests and still recommending I get a booster but still no idea how I go about ordering one. Can someone help rather than me going around in circles again please?

    Katie (@Katie68833952) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @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 is there a problem with your website? I keep clicking on links and not working. I have a problem with my broadband.

  • Dog_in_a_hat
    Wayne™ (@Dog_in_a_hat) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia Why would I run a wired speed test when I have no wired appliances? I pay for a wifi service...

  • jnlangton

    @00johnjohn1903 @josephineinnit @virginmedia the trouble with bt is their speeds are not up to the speeds of virgin

  • juanfelipe1
    John Wright (@juanfelipe1) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @simonnread @virginmedia I'm having the same issue. For the period of lockdown I could broadly rely on the signal to my home office. The last 2/3 months I haven't and I am constantly having to tether my mobile at my expense. The router hasn't moved and neither has my office. The service has just worsened

  • _Noumaan_
    Noumaan Abubakar (@_Noumaan_) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia Is it possible to speak to someone over the phone as at the moment I'm not confident with the move being a smooth one. I'm promised call backs which never happen etc

  • ifarrow
    Ian Farrow (@ifarrow) reported

    @virginmedia broadband down again. Go in to web page and it says try back again in 22hours! Go to tele helpline and it costs a fortune. How can I get help fixing this that doesn’t take 22hours. Shocking customer service.

    David-Leroy Sellers (@LeroyDLS) reported

    @virginmedia Basically I’ve had to stop working and have been medically signed off work for the last few months. - As such, I haven’t yet been able to pay my bill and wondered if there is any help available- I should be back at work in the next few much but I’m really struggling financially

    Martin law (@tw1tterlawsey) reported

    @virginmedia - I am writing this in total frustration with your company - you make us all upgrade and then provide an inadequate service- the new box clips, you can not access recordings - @sky must be rubbing theirs hands together - 2 months ani can get away from this
