    @virginmedia As per many comments in this thread I have suffered at the hands of terrible VM customer service. Employees don’t seem to have the tools to do a decent job. So many pillars & posts to be passed between. VM ok when it works but if you need help...

    @virginmedia I had my WiFi and phone installed back in June , the box outside my house was broken so your engineer connected to my next door neighbour, and was told it would only be for a week , I have phoned numerous times and just get ignored . Atrocious service!

    @virginmedia It is hard to complain. I just want to send an email but cannot find how to do this. I do not want to speak to your call centre or use the live text - both routes have failed to respond to complaint. Only other method is to send in a physical letter.

    @virginmedia been a loyal@customer over 15 years. Terrible service . Router issues, tv issues, renewal package severly higher than new customer discount. Told to go sky for a better price !! Great customer service #virginmedia

    @virginmedia @martybhoy1979 Having same issue !!!

  • MElcoate
    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.

    Mandy Pearse (@MandyPearse) reported from Teignmouth, England

    @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.

    AJ Merron (@AJMerron_writes) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @TravelodgeUK Wi-Fi, provided by @virginmedia not only has ripped me off but their customer support team are apparently away all weekend. This is obviously a scam.

  • 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.

  • 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.

    @BoostTorbay @AndrewBrazier1 Never used the first two options. Very much old school. None of the fancy pants Sky or Virgin Media either. Just plain old Freeview for me

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

    @MartinDaubney @virginmedia I would be going to an Ombudsmen. Shocking service. I'm with Sky, really great service.

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

  • BrettWheeler33
    Brett Wheeler (@BrettWheeler33) reported from Totnes, England

    @virginmedia Ok I'm very close to saying just stop and I'll go with @SkyUK as I'm sure they could install me much quicker just broadband is slow with sky

    @virginmedia please don't use Yodel @yodel241653 as a courier service. Pods not delivered today. Van stopped outside, and as I opened the front door he drove off without delivering the parcel. Now got to cancel plans for tomorrow to wait for parcel. Please don't use Yodel.

    @EdnaKrabapple1 @virginmedia There was a Virgin 'outage ' yesterday which caused a lot of problems including pixilating. Most channels are now fine except for BBC 3 and 4. I've not phoned 150 cos I know its not just me and i know I'm not the only one.
