    @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

  • lynnnnseyj Lynsey (@lynnnnseyj) reported from Bangor, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I'm not a customer thank God. The complaint was with your construction teams obviously completing half arsed work.

  • DAVIDBUZZ2904 DAVIDBUZZ2904 (@DAVIDBUZZ2904) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia This was not resolved quickly it was all day I was unable to get a service on my phone or any data all day I would like compensation

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

    When is @virginmedia going to be called to order by authorities. How is possible they get away with customers on hold for hours, broadband service levels vastly below power and to rub salt in, @virginmedia think it is acceptable to increase their fees? Enough is enough, @CISASUK!

  • eSean_SZN Sean McIlhatton (@eSean_SZN) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia It says no known issues

  • 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?? 😡

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

    @virginmedia I accept more customers are working from home including myself however after a year I would expect a company such as @virginmedia to adapt and do everything within their powers to improve their service, not worsen!!??

  • DenMagic Den (@DenMagic) reported from Dunmurry, Northern Ireland

    I wonder how many times today my 'superfast' @virginmedia will slow down and cut off? Lodged complaint and passed it onto BBC Watchdog. #virginmedia

  • lynnnnseyj Lynsey (@lynnnnseyj) reported from Bangor, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia hi, how to I make a complaint regarding construction. Office is now closed and the team were in a meeting earlier. Is there an email address?! Really not good enough!!

  • Domsball Dominic Bryan (@Domsball) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

  • chiefmackers Paul McClure (@chiefmackers) reported

    @virginmedia First was they wer waitin on a tool, then it was a gas issue, then waiting on a survey…none of it true. The engineer came out & told nothing stopping the work, they’re just reli behind. Last reason was a car was parked over the access point. So They delayed me another month.

  • AnnetteMOates Kendra & Netty Oates (@AnnetteMOates) reported

    @virginmedia when is the issue at S5 going to be resolved? Over 24 hours now with no broadband or TV services 🤬

  • PaulPeatroy Paul Peatroy (@PaulPeatroy) reported

    @virginmedia My complaint has not changed. Says it was being dealt with on 8/8. I have no service.

  • chiefmackers Paul McClure (@chiefmackers) reported

    @virginmedia Lol I’m basically on a first name basis with the installations team at this point. I’ve more contact with them than my own family. They’re not any help. They just blame the outside works people..but won’t give me their contact details so I can speed this up myself.

  • AmSalt12 ASalt (@AmSalt12) reported

    @virginmedia Absolutely disgusted with your service today. Not acceptable!!!!

  • Thecrochunter7 Stevcho (@Thecrochunter7) reported

    @virginmedia hi there, I have been trying to get my new tv package to work for the last 3 days and it’s not working correctly. I’m getting a code CS2004… your helpline keeps cutting me off and this is really pissing me off… I should’ve stayed with sky…

  • asdhillon86 amardeep dhillon (@asdhillon86) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, has been raised on both lost services and got the standard fix time response.

  • DannyHewson Danny Hewson (@DannyHewson) reported

    Also thanks to @virginmedia for giving me nowhere to specify what the problem is when reporting, sending 3 different guys who couldn’t fix it then missing appointments two days running for the guys who can…then telling me it’ll take 48 hours just to talk to a manager.

  • atticusdraven ASA (@atticusdraven) reported

    @shaun1968 @virginmedia It's ridiculous been like it for days and I've been going around in circles with VM customer service
