@virginmedia Seems its all over the area. Dozens of posts on local SM pages, people without service since late last night. Can't wait to change providers, to a company that actually supply what I pay for

When you call @virginmedia for assistance with installing your kit (box on the wall is faulty) and the advisor wishes she wasn’t there... I get you finish in 20 mins but doing GDPR and placing me on hold for ages isn’t on?! I pay for a service!

@virginmedia getting somewhat irked at the constant failure in the delivery of your services. And please don't apologise, it won't fix the broadband issue. You are now costing me money. This is not ideal. It's time for me to find a company that can deliver reliable broadband.

@virginmedia Service outage back again! No TV, no broadband, no landline, can't work, can't go out because of the pandemic. Being as polite as I can, I have to say, your service is utter shite.

@virginmedia @Virginmedia and @richardbranson need to improve you customer service and the access. It’s a joke. I feel sorry for you working for them.

Thank you @virginmedia you are yet again delivering an unacceptable service! Broadband intermittent, cant work, nothing on a status update, yet an apology on front of the phone message. I've had better connectivity in a Sri Lankan jungle.

@virginmedia 2/2 customer services is just 'turn it off and on again on automated message' Can't speak to anyone. May cancel direct debit if I don't get some satisfaction and action soon to resolve issues which appear common place complaints

Thank you @virginmedia? The outage fix will carry on for an additional 12 hours. You really know how to provide a great service, don't you? Well, not for me you don't. You've properly messed up my ability to have my work published tomorrow, thus, loss of business. #unimpressed

@virginmedia Sure although I do miss the days when companies who knew customers were having problems called them as opposed to the other way around. I’m a bit old fashioned that way I guess 🤔

Virgin media broadband speed progressively worsening over past 2 weeks. Meant to get 200mb download speed but getting less than 5 regularly. Impossible to work from home. Support contact number says “not been possible to connect you”. Can you please advise ASAP please?

(@Notwat57) reported
@virginmedia It's simple, replacement Internet box and TV box were sent as not working properly, but only one return label. Instructions clearly state one label per box but you only sent one label. I tried to phone but gave up after three attempts and mentioned here.

@virginmedia you told us the issue with out internet connection would be resolved by 10.00am then you pushed this back to 2pm. No communication with customers as to why our service has not yet been re-connected! Not good customer relations.

@tweethue Just to confirm, this is still working perfectly (almost a month later now). Sync box definitely didn't seem to like the upscaled signal from the virgin media box. Maybe one for your FAQ.

@virginmedia You have the absolute worst customer service in history. Countless hours on the phone, cut off, passed from one department to the other, asking me for info on your company. All this on my phone bill. Shame on you!!!!

@virginmedia After 50 minutes wait on the phone I’ve managed to book an engineer, but tv will be unavailable until next Monday (provided they can solve the issue).

@virginmedia hi, I struggle all the time with my phone connecting to your wifi. My laptop, iPad and Mac never seem to struggle. Is there a setting I need to change on your hub or is it my phone?

@LozzaFox @virginmedia We have been with them since they known as NTL back in the day customer service was good now since it's been Virgin Media they dont seem to care. The just want your money. Customer service is very poor. There overseas call centres are shocking.

@virginmedia If I'm a customer of yours and need customer service, you put me through to a call centre in India that provides wrong information. If I call and say I'd like to sign up as a new customer, I get UK/Ireland call centres... This is wrong. Do better.
