@virginmedia A few hours I understand but 4 days and counting is not on. No one seems to be able to give a reliable account of what the actual problem is and when it will be sorted. Just fobbed off constantly. You’ve probably been the most helpful so far.

@virginmedia I just want someone out to check my equipment and sort it. No one else I know nearby who has virgin are having half as many issues as we are. You’ve got my money now come and sort my problem out. It’s been 4 days!

@virginmedia I appreciate your response but I did get through to an agent and the response I got was quite frankly appalling. The only thing that link says is there is a problem with using the app. This is a problem that has now been going on for weeks

@virginmedia absolutely shocking that as a customer since 2012 out of contract since 2014 decided to tackle the £130+ a month bill only to be told we can knock off £10 but increase your broadband is the only offer you can make to keep me with you. Time to move on

Well done @virginmedia, everything down again and I’m told 24-48 hours until it’s fixed. On the opening weekend of the new premier league season. Magic 🙄😤

@virginmedia @MoneyTelegraph Furious right now. 12 different failings by virgin media. Call centre refusal to escalate my complaint. Hung up on twice. No human compassion. Just keep quoting from their script. Completely unacceptable. #poorcustomerservice

@virginmedia It’s broadband and tv. All I can do is watch recorded shows. Can’t even get bbc itv etc. All I’m told is there’s a complex problem in the area but other people I know seem to have problems with either the tv or internet and nowhere as bad as ours. Extremely frustrating

266 excruciating minutes of my life (nine phone calls!) I will never get back trying to get a complaint response out of @virginmedia A customer of over 20 years treated terribly. Let’s hope @bt_uk are better. #misselling #poorcustomerservice @lutzschuler @libertyglobal @ofcom

@virginmedia Unfortunately the first member of staff disconnected our call then the second member was fairly rude so I think it’s time for me to move on and get better service and something I can afford, I’ve been trying for the past year to get a better deal but never got more than this.

@virginmedia No. No response to the online chat or text. Literally nothing, zero, silence. Call volume is no excuse for over 24hrs of no response from a paid for service provider. #CustomerService

I feel like all I do is ring big companies up constantly to be fobbed off about their terrible service & amounts of money they’re taking off me for that service. It’s a joke. @virginmedia and @SSE Im talking about you.Joke both of you 😡. #pissedoff #anotherdaywithnotvorinternet

@virginmedia Done all of this, nothing works, the check my status is useless as it says there’s no broadband issues but when I ring up I’m told there is.

Just realised my direct debit goes out today. But your department that deals with taking payments hasn’t been down for the last 4 days. Funny that 😬 @virginmedia

@virginmedia Customers having issues when using a VPN over a Virgin connection is not on your script and therefore you have no idea what to advise. I advise you raise this as a P1 incident to your Level 3 engineers immediately please.

@virginmedia can send an engineer in an emergency to our neighbour as the socket isn’t straight on the wall.... but can’t send one to activate services. There are 2 vans in my street now why do we need to wait until 24th when hardware already in house?

@virginmedia Internet has gone down several times this week. You keep forcing me to go into the office during a pandemic because you're failing to provide the service I'm paying for. Service status says it won't be fixed until tomorrow. Broke today, broke yesterday and broke the days before.

@virginmedia Yep tried the steps on your website. Again it's gone down this morning just now. Seems to be around this time each day. This is a fibre connection right into the property. BT copper cable was slower yes but never this inconsistent with connection!
