    Martin Elcoate (@MElcoate) reported from Topsham, England

    It would appear that @virginmedia broadband is down across the SW until at least midday. Not that you’d know from VM. Have had to glean this from internet searches & Facebook. Usual poor VM customer service.

    @danslee @virginmedia That’s shocking customer handling Dan. If it’s any help I’ve actually found the guys @TalkTalk pretty good especially on tech issues around broadband.

    @virginmedia Router being swapped some time this week ! New customer deal significently better then a customer of 15 years !

    Get @SkyUK @SkyHelpTeam they said, they are good, finish with @virginmedia. So why does the internet go down at midnight every night? Sky?

    @FlipflopRobbie @heartstreatham @virginmedia @suebright01 I felt a little left out today so thought about an outage this morning ... and guess what ! No @virginmedia broadband for 2 hours #intheclub

    @virginmedia how does anyone make a complaint that will be taken seriously?

    JC (@last_centurion) reported from Chudleigh Knighton, England

    @CISASUK @virginmedia I used the resolution service to come to a settlement with Virgin on 9/4/19. Response from Virgin that a cheque would be sent and should be received within 7-10 working days. Today is the 12th working day and I’ve received no cheque in the post. Not happy

  • RapidBI
    Mike Morrison (@RapidBI) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @Yoshi107422871 @virginmedia Yes they say they will raise a complaint but nothing comes of it, no call or e-mail followup

  • petenjane
    petenjane (@petenjane) reported from Topsham, England

    @virginmedia There seems to be a region wide problem with your internet service and your service status page is broken - a service announcement would be useful might save you a few incoming calls too?

  • redsoilgirl49
    Redsoilgirl (@redsoilgirl49) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia Have tried 3 more times to get through with the same outcome. Paying a lot of money for no service and no customer service!

  • RapidBI
    Mike Morrison (@RapidBI) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    Trying to talk to get a change to our @virginmedia account. 5 weeks, none of the promised call back & now they close our account without telling us. If this is how they treat long term customer avoid like the plague!! #customerservicefail #broadband

  • JackieKellySW
    Jackie Kelly (@JackieKellySW) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia total dismay , terrible service, routers constantly fail . Call CS and told you have been customer over 15 years but best to go to @sky for a better price !!

    @Bearded365Guy @virginmedia I’ve tried to get the link a number of times but they still have t sent it. Awful service I just want to speak to a person who doesn’t put me on hold and redirect me to another dept who don’t answer, so frustrating

  • AnimeDeb
    DebAndrews (@AnimeDeb) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia tv and bb down. Please hurry up and fix before the estimated time tomorrow 4pm. WFH and have a teams meeting at 10am.

  • gjp12775
    Graham Palmer (@gjp12775) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @MartinDaubney @virginmedia I've heard negative stories.about them downhere. Again around service. Dread to think what will happen with Flybe, if Virgin supply shoddy service.

  • MElcoate
    Martin Elcoate (@MElcoate) reported from Topsham, England

    @virginmedia I’m complaining about the difficulty & time taken to resolve an issue. Being on the helpline for over 2 hrs, being passed on numerous times, each time going thru security, each time explaining issue, people not calling back when promised, complaint not addressed. feel powerless.

    @WhichUK Thread below a snapshot of my frustration with Virgin Media customer care & their complaint handling process.

    Apologies if my tweets with Virgin Media have landed in your timeline this evening. They couldn’t DM me and all other avenues of complaint have failed.

    I recently cancelled my virgin media contract to join Nowtv...not a good move!..Brilliant concept but just try and speakt to customer services...ho hum..gonna rename it as The Abyss..

  • MElcoate
    Martin Elcoate (@MElcoate) reported from Topsham, England

    Dear @virginmedia, I rarely take to social media to complain however attempts to make a formal complaint via telephone “help”line & via online chat have failed. Your customer service is the worst I’ve ever experienced. Your complaint handling process is also broken. @WhichUK

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia That's awful. Whenever you leave they always try and squeeze a bit more cash out. Disgraceful

  • Old_Motherduck

    @virginmedia @JamieGBarry maybe you should make that clear from the beginning and treat loyal customers as first time customers

    @alisterrussell @PeteUK7 @virginmedia My sis in law was in ICU on a ventilator, I had just brought my brother back from another hospital after an MI. A debt collector for a utility Co knocked at his door. Atm the hospital rang to say we had to go down ( SIL later died) the debt guy said not to worry & offered a lift!

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia @VisionExpress keep sending my now 4 years deceased mother reminders for her eye test. This is despite meinforming them by calling them, attending a store in person and returning to sender the mail. Horrible reminders which are so unnecessary. Well done for calling virgin out.

  • Talk_To_Will
    William Bone ッ (@Talk_To_Will) reported

    @LouiseE120682 @PeteUK7 @virginmedia They are the absolute worst. Not even sure I could put into words how bad they are.

  • korky69
    mick auckland (@korky69) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia reminded me of when my dad passed away with the then "orange" mobile network, called to cancel and pay the outstanding balance, they insisted on speaking with the account holder? explained he had died, they still demanded to speak to him! never the less the bill was left unpaid

  • radavies_art
    Richard Davies FRSA (@radavies_art) reported

    Dear @virginmedia I’ve had no TV signal for almost a month. When I contacted you, I was twice left on hold for over an hour; when I finally spoke to someone, I was assured reception would be restored within 24hrs, that was two weeks ago!

  • Gazmac92
    Gary George (@Gazmac92) reported

    @Billymawa @PeteUK7 @virginmedia BT did this to my mam when my dad died and when they after the third time of her telling them he died they asked if he needed an ambulance. Don’t know why they thought her first reaction to him going into cardiac arrest was to cancel the internet not save his life.
