@virginmedia And our Virgin TV has failed again your service truly is shite and a waste of my money looks like we are left with terrestrial TV through our always reliable tv aerial again you should be deeply ashamed of your outrageously poor service 👎

@virginmedia Tomorrow. This has been going on for over two weeks intermittent but the way I was treated was not the way to treat a loyal customer

@virginmedia No known issues. It’s only wireless speeds. There is no excuse for this, it happens to me almost everyday. I would like to discuss it with someone as I tried at the weekend and was completely fobbed off by your service team. I pay nearly £50 a month and often have to use my 4G

@virginmedia I was speaking with an agent an hour ago due to an issues with WiFi. They said they’d 100% ring me back in 30 mins as we did a hard reset of the booster. It’s been another 30 mins since then and no one has called. #notmyday

@virginmedia @jeffsprogress It didn’t work for a day and you think it is a great experience and good service. With that attitude no wonder we get such a shit service

@jeffsprogress @virginmedia I changed to Virgin because BT would drop out regularly in the middle of the Moto GP. Used to have a great service with Sky but they charge an extra 30 something quid for BT Sport

@lisadunn1978 @virginmedia I have just had hell on and demanded to speak to a manager. At first I was told there was no issue in our area and it was the router then the manager has told me that there is a problem in our area

@jeffsprogress @virginmedia I didn’t miss your point I just do t agree with it - if we pay for service everyday it should work every single day. I do not consider any failure to be a good service

@virginmedia I have the App but having it confirm what I already know is no help whatsoever. Instead of investing in Apps that confirm your service is not fit for purpose why not invest in providing an unfailing service to customers. Currently you take money for services you can’t deliver

Closed an account with @VirginMediaIE in January (notice given etc). Got charged €240 in Aug and another €20.65 in Sept. Promised a refund on 23rd Aug and again on 2nd Sept. Still nothing has been done despite formal complaint. @comreg are aware. Help this go viral #virginmedia

@virginmedia Last night and no, still speed up lag, still delays, still lagging, slow download speeds, slow upload speeds, slow overall.

@virginmedia I've consistently had to complain about the state of my internet; I've only been with you for 6 months but me and my partner cannot continue working with the service we've got. How do I go about either getting an engineer or cancelling?

@virginmedia As they should be, it's an idiotic way of #VirginMedia to deploy an upgrade to a system - I could upgrade my entire network at work to a new operating system, new firmware, new bios, etc, and still ensure no files were lost!

@virginmedia Not an issue with the music, but do have an issue with our broadband. Spent over 2 hours on the phone and a week of waiting and still not getting the speeds promised. So frustrating.

I've been with @virginmedia for about 5 years. We're moving house to an area they don't service now they want to charge me a £240 termination fee. What a scam.

@virginmedia And yes, I have reset set the Hub multiple times an issue still persists. The first person I spoke to suggested it might be an issue with the chip that allows for high speeds in the Hub.

@VirginMediaIE Spoke to another rep. Refund still not processed. Comreg have been updated. Asking for my account (which closed in January) number is a cop out. You have a formal complaint from me already so I'm sure you can find the details if you put even bare minimum effort in. #virginmedia

@virginmedia Finally got through to someone. There is apparently a local fault, but your service checker says there isn't... expected fix time of 7pm so that's a days work up the shitter 👍
