  • clairewoods93 Claire Lock (@clairewoods93) reported from Worthing, England

    @TheParkView1 @vmbusiness They are dreadful. We have @virginmedia and regularly use service. And have to argue to get any compensation back 😡

  • fionaduggan Fiona Duggan (@fionaduggan) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia Media. And No. It was just to highlight how shit Virgin have been. And why should I repeat myself. Read up.

  • clairewoods93 Claire Lock (@clairewoods93) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia It just came off my bill but I rang and expressed that it should have been more and they would look into it but I’ve not had a response. You’re going to fob me off with intermittent service but perhaps you should have sent someone round to check but then you’d have to pay out l!

  • clairewoods93 Claire Lock (@clairewoods93) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia I’ve raised 2 complaints and had £5 as a goodwill gesture which is quite frankly insulting. The ofcom regulations states £8 per day for every working day after 48 hours of no service. By my calculations I should of had £24 off my bill. Fri to tues is 48 working hrs then tues-fri

  • daftsidious T.Allen (@daftsidious) reported from Worthing, England

    @Switchtobetter @virginmedia To be fair, CS I've never had a problem with and I have called and tweeted a LOT. I just want my internet to work when I expect it to.

  • PeterNooneComms Peter Noone (@PeterNooneComms) reported from Worthing, England

    Couldn't watch Eng v NZ game yesterday on @virginmedia because the ITV picture was appalling. Just switched on for the Wales v SA game exactly the same issue. Time to switch from this very expensive flaky service. #nothappy

  • clairewoods93 Claire Lock (@clairewoods93) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia The £5 was given as a result of my complaint. I don’t know why you kept harping on about intermittent service. I had NO SERVICE WHATSOEVER FOR 1 WHOLE WEEK!! Nothing, not a bean, no tv, no internet, so please stop saying intermittent service!!

  • daftsidious Timothy Allen (@daftsidious) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia It might be worth putting out a tweet to tell everyone that scammers are currently trying and that you will never DM, because I totally fell for it before they asked the card deets, and I'm internet savvy. Someone else will get screwed because of that.

  • mike_the_frog Mike Coombes (@mike_the_frog) reported from Shoreham-by-Sea, England

    @virginmedia I’ve just been kept on hold for 40 minutes before finally speaking to a very rude and brusque operative who spent 5 minutes asking me to check the cables I’d already checked (I’m not stupid) before hanging up on me. Problem still not resolved. Appalling.

  • vickyleech75 Vicky Leech (@vickyleech75) reported from Littlehampton, England

    @virginmedia Could not offer services at new address so contract cancelled-now telling me I owe £200 & will send bailiffs round-despite murmurous phone calls to get this sorted & raising an urgent complaint 6 wks ago. Have taken advice from @Ofcom and @CISASUK Utter disgrace.

  • panda_creative Panda Creative Ltd (@panda_creative) reported from Sompting, England

    @Paul_667 @virginmedia Nope, not had that problem mate, the only problem is getting this phone line moved over, for such an easy task they do seem to be making it very VERY complicated.

  • fionaduggan Fiona Duggan (@fionaduggan) reported from Worthing, England

    Dear @virginmedia #VirginMedia Your customer service abilities are proper shit. With love.

  • CrossMediaNet Allan Cross (@CrossMediaNet) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia no broadband or TV for five days. Recorded message on 150 says sorry for intermittent service. It's NO service. Can a human contact me please.

  • katestar Katie ⚔️ (@katestar) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia I've tried rebooting it several times, and checked the cables are all secure although noone has been home all day so they've not been touched and it was working before I left but not working when we got home at 4.30pm

  • CrossMediaNet Allan Cross (@CrossMediaNet) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia It’s day six without service. I have been speaking to your call centres who simply tell me what they see on their screens. These are the same messages that I’m getting via text. When I call 150 each day I get the same message saying normal service should resume by 4pm.

  • mike_the_frog Mike Coombes (@mike_the_frog) reported from Shoreham-by-Sea, England

    @virginmedia He said that the box needed replacing but didn’t have time to do it. My TV is unwatchable and your customer service is shoddy.
