    @virginmedia Only had to wait 2 hours to finally get through to someone who was able to deal with my issue. Stuart Toms, one of your managers was very helpful & got the various issues resolved...

    When @virginmedia answer your call just before 9pm then tell you their system gets ‘shut off’ at 9pm so Aapparently now I have to wait for the computer to restart.. 🤔🙄 Then they just hang up. Same old customer service 🙄

    @virginmedia I have been having broadband issues for over a month. I have been on hold to the call centre for over 45 minutes now trying to get help. Is that normal waiting time?

    @virginmedia Yes I did, just this morning. The system diagnosed a fault and asked me to reset my router. I did and it started working again (as it always does tbh) and has since gone down again. I would like to know how to book an Engineer to call please ASAP! Thanks

    @virginmedia On your website the only way to verify if those details are correct is by “contacting our Customer Care team”, which is hours of waiting and often only to get cut off before I talk to someone. You guys are literally unbelievable.

    @Benleo @virginmedia My experience - engineer comes in to fix box. Tells me to put 'dog away!' I say 'no, she won't come into the lounge or bother you' 'Tea, coffee?' I say 'No' 'Water, fruit juice?' I add 'Fruit, fruit' he says I return with apple & banana He grabs both & puts them in his bag 🤨😖

  • AndyFormUK
    Andy Form (@AndyFormUK) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia We have an issue that’s been going on for 12months. As soon as my wife uses her laptop everything else in the house stop working, Xbox, streaming, even phones. I have 350 GB package and was told I need to upgrade my package to the top one to “fix” the issue. 10 plus calls, hours on hold been past from different departments, engineer visits that don’t turn up and engineers that turn up and say there is a issue with it and someone will be touch when it’s fixed. £40 goodwill I was offered and a call 2 months ago, I’ve even up trying.

  • Liver4breakfast
    Martin Moore (@Liver4breakfast) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia the irony. The repair date for the TV and intermittent internet problems has been moved, after 2 days of the same problem. Try to send Virginmedia a DM "There is a problem connecting with the server".. That's because of an intermittent internet problem that I have.

  • hughwjames
    Hugh James (@hughwjames) reported

    @Benleo I think I had a situation with Virgin media where they called me 5 times back to back. Their customer service is not British.

    @virginmedia quite possibly the worst customer service EVER. I have been a loyal customer for years! Absolutely disgraceful

    @virginmedia no Internet for 2 days saying won't be fixed until Friday, I thought southern water was the worst, you've proved me wrong.

    I have released all audio tapes of my many calls since April 30 and will be collating them for the nation to see how @virginmedia treat their customers and breach consumer law.
