    Ross kane. (@rossthomaskane) reported from Bangor, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia the wifi connection in our home has been terrible the last few months. Anytime my mum calls she gets frustrated because she doesn’t understand the questions, but she is the only person staff will talk to as she is the account holder. Any suggestions??

  • FuscoTV
    Angelina Fusco (@FuscoTV) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Dreadful #biz service @virginmedia all day and evening. To add to the problem @ITVX also stuttering

  • DavidPMet
    David Phelan (@DavidPMet) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Yes. And another call already, that's 2 for today. I'm blocking both numbers. Terrible customer service practice.

  • Garlic_Icon
    WTF! (@Garlic_Icon) reported from Antrim and Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia "aren't guaranteed?" They've been terrible from day one. After 6 months as a customer you clearly overpromise on your capabilities. My speeds at the moment are probably no better than dial up

  • 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.

    So frustrated with @virginmedia sat for ages on live chat reducing my package.. was going through final stages and suspiciously my broad band went down Coincidence??

  • adammccalden
    Adam McCalden (@adammccalden) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia since my virgin mobile UK signal has been shifted from piggyback Vodafone to @O2 it has been a complete disaster, constant signal dropping, constant WiFi calling cutting. This is before my account has been transferred to O2. Complete and utter rubbish

  • peterhkirk
    Pete Kirk (@peterhkirk) reported from Ballyclare, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Having spent nearly three hours tonight trying to speak with someone with no luck I would like to know how customers get in touch, how they can get a solid service and when @virginmedia will cop onto what is acceptable as a business provider?? 😡

  • nadean_ni
    Nadean (@nadean_ni) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia both tv and broadband have been down for well over 24 hours now. Not good enough! Any reason for this?

  • seansteenson
    Sean Steenson (@seansteenson) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Ive had some scary experiences with customer service but as always @virginmedia always take the Oscar for worst customer service performance. #virginmedia

  • mfearonmusic
    Michael Fearon (@mfearonmusic) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Then I noticed that I was missing the children’s channels. I called and got it sorted but I was told the new bill will show as £150 odd but not to worry a manager will be applying discount, that never happened.

  • DavidPMet
    David Phelan (@DavidPMet) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland

    .@virginmedia please can you stop calling me every day? Long term customer offered £45 per month renewal, got double the speed for half the price with @TalkTalk 👏🏼 Since then, repeated calls offering £20 per month package, should have rewarded loyalty to begin with! @Ofcom

    Dermdog ☭ (@Dermo1888) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I'm shocked how poor you treat your customers. I cancelled my service 10 days ago and somehow you talked me into staying... but then failed to live up to your promises again... I have cancelled today. Thank God for the 14 cooling off period. #Broadband #complaint

    Daniel Ryder (@dryder11) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia holding for over an hour to speak to customer services - hung up and rang the sales as a “new customer” answered within 3 rings. I appreciate that your limited with staff but don’t forget your existing customers #frustrating

  • Flomoll

    Just another day of poor @virginmedia service. Going crazy. All that money and useless service. Can’t get through on phone. Insane.

    @virginmedia No. You have proved beyond a shadow of a doubt your customer service is beyond useless.

  • EmmetMcDB
    Emmet McDonough-Brown (@EmmetMcDB) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @okaygeraldine @virginmedia That’s one for @consumerlinda G. I’d give them a call, I’m astounded they can charge you when you move to an area they don’t service. It feels very very wrong.

  • stuartwfrobbins
    Stuski (@stuartwfrobbins) reported from Bangor, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Hello, Broadband service isn’t currently down, postcode BT20 4NS, I have rebooted router, and tried to call, but it says offices are closed. Please investigate/ fix.

  • BeauSooth
    Gerry McCrudden (@BeauSooth) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia "I am really so sorry that you are looking to cancel the services which I will need to get you connected with our customer relations team who will be able to help you further..." I had to ring on a different day as I had no more time that day

    @Andycave @virginmedia Mate, we had them. They were just awful. We switched to BT. Much better. Yes Virgin Media made BT look good. Constant grief with Virgin. No problem with BT.
