@syeporter180 @virginmedia I’m on virgin and it’s not that great Sye, I was going to sky before I renewed but had the same problem as you because I’d of had to wait months for BT to install a cable so just stuck to the devil I know in the end

@virginmedia It doesn't. No changes made. I had major problems setting this up, it went through someone in your complaints department and they had to do something manual to set the package I was on up. Clearly, even they are incapable. I've had TV for a few months, then it's just gone off.

Word of warning avoid @virginmedia 4 wifi like the plague. I rarely get even 20% of advertised speeds & the CS team are next 2 useless. Paying 4 daily disappointment that upsets the kids. Will never go back 2 them ever. Worst service I ave ever received @EE was so much better

@virginmedia Screw you. Only me dying bothers anyone, literally anyone, it's always impossible to help me until people understand that I will kill myself. You're no better than them. See you in 2 weeks or not "AB".

@virginmedia With respect, your customer service advisors are useless. As is the technology for contacting them. As per my initial message. Last time I went through this I was booked a chat appointment by your twitter team with someone who specifically handled the complaint.

Another day in the life of a @virginmedia customer. TV showing fault. Ran online diagnostics, didn't fix. Site says to call. Call. Go through menu, TV, fault... sends me a text with a link to online diagnostics, says "thanks for calling" and hangs up. Worst. Company. Ever.

Been with @virginmedia back as far as old NTL days. Downgrade our package for the first time ever to keep costs down, and the Internet must have crashed at least 8 times today, the day after we changed. Absolutely useless, on the phone tomorrow to cancel this **** completely.

@virginmedia terrible service. You booked to install my equipment on 13th Dec 2023. Wrong year and no one will sort it out. Your fault entirely

@virginmedia No reported issues. Tried the fixes before, and so did virgin chat. Not just my handset, other people are having the same problem. Am I going to have to change networks, is that what you're saying? Due to the change to O2?

@virginmedia any chance of supporting existing customers, currently paying £32 a month but your offering new customers 25 a month. Helpline said nothing I can do as existing customer.

@virginmedia I dunno mate, that's why I tried to call you lot. You can't help, so don't worry about it. Another weekend without TV and internet, waiting for your engineer to turn up. Another complaint. Another refund.

@virginmedia Clearly not as the issue keeps coming back after multiple engineer fixes outside AND in my home. You're lying through your teeth and leaving me in the dark literally. Stop hiding behind "standard business" replies, be human and help me.

@virginmedia A laughable statement in all honesty you're known for terrible service, demonstrated by the line "Package changes". Who said package changes? I have a TV package, I signed up for, have a contract for and have been using since June. It's disappeared your end, I have the docs.

@virginmedia another day another WiFi outage. This really is the worst WiFi I've ever had. Legally as you are not providing the service as promised am I allowed to cancel the contract ? @CitizensAdvice

@virginmedia 4 You have sent me texts before instead of using proper communication methods. The idea of customer service is to make thing easier for the customer - not for Virgin Media.

I’m fed up with @virginmedia …no service again on a Friday night …pay for fibre optic …my wife can’t work from home …when I called your complaints I was told I needed to buy a booster… I already have a booster …I’m actually losing money with your broadband service 👍🏼

@megscats @virginmedia Ours has been down all day. Was meant to be fixed by 7pm, now not until tomorrow midday (allegedly). The only good thing about this is that we finally decided we won’t renew our contract. The poor service, prolonged outages and poor communication has done the trick.

If this letter is genuine, what does the updating of line unit actually involve and how long will it take? I contacted @virginmedia a couple of months ago regarding an irregular internet service & after being told there were no line probs was sent without notice another modem..

(@LaurenD14561930) reported
@virginmedia please tell me why I’ve tried to cancel my contract 4 times now and I’ve just had an email tos at my bill is overdue and I owe £102! Absolutely disgusting. 4 times I’ve phoned to cancel. I WILL NOT be paying and I will never take my broadband out with you again

@virginmedia Customer service is of no use as for all the drop outs we get regularly to the point we have stopped complaining and wasting my own time, but never in the times I have called I have been offered a solution or compensation. Just we will be getting you connect as soon as we can...

(@nabeelmahmood14) reported
@virginmedia I'm not saying you are doing a bad thing, but first of all I can't wait for my contact with you to finish, keep getting drop outs every week with hours of down time each time, and your competitors currently offering 1 gig speed for what I am paying 80mb with you.

@virginmedia account up for renewal. Best they can offer is 42% more than new customer offer. @ThreeUK account up for renewal. Best deal they can offer is the one I’m on - cheaper than new customer offer 👍. Shame on you Virgin😡

@virginmedia what's happened to customer service? Brand new connection today failed. Rang up about it and had phone put down on me after being on hold. Wondering why I left sky right now

I get regular dropouts everyday and your customer service people are rude and unhelpful and the service is overpriced. Shame on you Virgin Media.
