James Hope (@gingerjames1990) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England@reddersmufc @Ofcom @virginmedia It's awful! I'm sick of calling customer services and getting through to someone who cannot understand basic English language and goes on talking about something else. Then try to speak to three different advisers to raise a simple issue/complaint and they refuse!

-
Matthew Hughes (@MattHugheslives) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, EnglandSo @virginmedia is increasing their prices by £8.50 pm. Wouldn't mind so much if they had decent service, eifi that doesn't cut out when i go upstairs, Sky Atlantic etc. Would go with @SkyUK but their wifi doesn't like bloody copper pipes.
-
James Hope (@gingerjames1990) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England@virginmedia Sorry are you not reading what I am saying? Three calls in the past 90 minutes and still they either don't understand what I'm saying or refuse to take a complaint!
-
💻gremlins r us💻 (@PlumbousSkin) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England@virginmedia I experience this problem all the time. Our phones dont connect, our internet randomly drops out, this isnt a new problem. Just a frustrating one. Everytime we 'monitor it for a week then check back' nothing is ever fixed. Its just a bad service in general.
-
Will Hook (@williamtm) reported from Crewe, England@serenium @virginmedia Lots of ISPs don’t support it, not just VM.
-
sean cosgrove (@mymodlifecrisis) reported from Congleton, EnglandSo @virginmedia don’t understand my 78 year old deaf father cannot call them. They call me as asked out of the blue and tell me they can’t fix the broadband problem, they WONT send an engineer out and I’m getting upset because I’m not hearing what I want. They got that right x
-
Meyrick (@iMeyrick) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England@zebadee1985 @virginmedia Virgin Media, fastest speeds but slowest customer service. It’s a massive shame, it really lets them down.
-
dean condliffe 🏴 (@DeanCondliffe) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England@virginmedia John, please check my file. I’ve called several times, to be told somebody will contact you regarding your complaint. I ask to speak to a manger I’m told, none available. Appreciate this is not your fault buts it’s an utter **** show. I’ll let @Ofcom take the lead from here.
-
Andrew Dickerson (@andy_dickerson) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England@virginmedia Yes I did and Tuesdays fault was shown and yesterday's wasn't so how about you provide the service I pay for. If this continues I will begin getting quotes from other service providers as I am fed up of dealing with bots and spammers claiming to be from you.

Lady Gray (@princessandtoad) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England@StaffordTownUK @virginmedia It’s virgin media..... same reason I left..... my speed was awful
-
Matt Harrison (@paramattharri84) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England@virginmedia No! I'm not a customer its @KezMH who you need to apologise to. Seemingly your lack of ability to even read this thread properly emphasises your lack of ability to provide acceptable customer service
-
Mark ODonnell (@TheLensman) reported from Crewe, England@virginmedia The number used 01455443469 in the UK. They said they had detected problems on our router & wanted to help. They asked me to enter a web site. Having spent almost 40 years in IT I felt it was wrong. The router does have slow moments but I had not reported it.
-
David Knight (@Knightfight7) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England@virginmedia Didn’t think your service could get worse.Wifi is now completely unusable.Getting 3mb wired into a Xbox one.Still got considerable amount of tv channels not working.All for £100 per month.What an absolute disgrace

🍃Lana Banana🍂 (@Laaana_bananaaa) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, EnglandHow ******** can Virgin Media say it's too expensive to connect us with WiFi in this area and would take them years to earn it back, when other people in the smae street have it!!??? 🙃😠
-
Tiny Tog (@Tiny_Tog) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England@virginmedia @virginmedia I’m glad it sorted itself out as the customer service woman said id need a new hub which she said she’d order and would arrive Tuesday (6/8/19). Which it hasn’t. I’m glad I didn’t need it #virginmedia

Craig (@bricknblock1981) reported@virginmedia AVOID AT ALL COSTS - Absolutely awful customer service. Schedule appointments and never turn up. We are now on our 5th rescheduled appointment in 5 days and no expected timeframe for a resolution. Total loss of service 11 days and counting…
-
Sean Hanlon (@seanhanlon77) reported@SziIlar @RacingTV It’s on RTV extra but RTV app is horrid and worse quality, prob watch it on Virgin Media or Sky
-
Diplo (@loldiplo) reported@virginmedia Do you not think the first thing I checked was your website for checked outages and all you tell me to do is book an engineer which you then tell me I have too wait another 2 days to get one??? So that’s 3 days of service you’re not providing of which I pay for.
-
Nadine_CCN (@NadineD_G) reported@virginmedia more than 24 hours of no internet service in the E4 area. I’m seeing people saying that this has gone on for days with them. How can we confirm that our service will be up and running by the suggested time? I have work to do and this is really causing a delay.
-
Paddy 🇮🇪 (@paddywalsh35) reported@PGNWTLOI1D hopefully virgin media steal the rights, RTE coverage is just painfully bad now
-
Told You So (@TYS20212) reported@Oxford_Life @virginmedia The new tv box is absolutely abysmal, the worst “upgrade” in history. If it wasn’t for lack of high speed broadband alternatives here we would be off like a shot.
-
kellyann (@kellyan99166027) reported@virginmedia since 1pm yesterday afternoon we have been told that the problem is being fixed. Every time the estimated time comes up you change it again. We have little to no information about what’s happening. Could you please advise on when. It will be corrected ?
-
Sue Rouse💙 🇺🇦 (@rouse_sue) reported@virginmedia your customer service is appalling. Keep being given the run around and no action. Hate to do it this way.
-
Scottish (@ScottishC87) reported@Ripple300X did you ever get to the bottom of your packet loss issues on Downbad? Speaking to Joby he says you had to stop playing. Having the same issue elsewhere or only on Downbad? I'm trying to talk to Virgin Media just now.
