    @virginmedia just had the misfortune to speak to the rudest person ever whilst trying to sort out my abysmal connection speed when she put the phone down on me after a 20 minute wait!!

  • moorland2
    Moorland (@moorland2) reported from Endon, England

    We stopped paying @virginmedia the£90 for what in fairness was complete crap and have bought a Manhattan @FreeviewTV box and couldn’t be happier. We would never go back to virgin or sky for their overpriced TV service

    @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.

  • Andreaeday
    Andrea Day (@Andreaeday) reported from Biddulph, England

    @virginmedia <sigh> suppose I really shouldn’t have thought that you would provide a good customer service experience based on my experience of my recent dealings. Sad; Virgin Media used to be pretty awesome. Disappointed.

  • shent
    Matt (@shent) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately not, I even gave two phone numbers and an email, just want to know if there is an issue local to me or if it’s a network issue, I can deal with downtime but drop outs and high latency really are frustrating, can’t really have another half a day off work...

  • AndyType2
    Andy (@AndyType2) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England

    @virginmedia Wanted to thank the lady that helped me today. The call ended and it was not me, and I really wanted to thank her. Hopefully you will pass it on, she hung on to the bitter death to help.

    @virginmedia how is the admin panel so slow on the hub 3.0, it’s actually terrible and has been since release 😒 I can’t even access my DHCP settings

  • mbusby993
    𝕸𝖆𝖙𝖙🏳️‍🌈 (@mbusby993) reported from Mow Cop, England

    Hey @virginmedia, please install fibre lines in Mow Cop (ST7) so I can get rid of PlusNet. Had to change from Virgin Broadband when we moved, and I never had a single issue. Sick of PlusNet outages now.

  • andyvic7
    Andy Picken (@andyvic7) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia I’m sick of resetting that hub it’s supposed to be 100mb fibre I had less trouble with my dial up! Do you supply boosters as you can take it out before I spend money to make up for your awful service

  • gingerjames1990
    James Hope (@gingerjames1990) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Again have you read anything iv said????? THREE CALLS to your customer services and all connected to off shore people who have either not got a clue what a complaint is or refused to log one for me! Instead of repeating yourself sort it out! @Ofcom #poorcustomerservice

  • PlumbousSkin
    💻gremlins r us💻 (@PlumbousSkin) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Weve had an engineer out, he replaced our router then buggered off. The problems kept happening even with a new router.. its been months of calling & faffing around trying to get this problem fixed & still nothing, its a joke.

    @zebadee1985 @virginmedia Virgin Media, fastest speeds but slowest customer service. It’s a massive shame, it really lets them down.

    marc (@bighandsmassuer) reported

    @virginmedia all I wanted was a new contract, after 16 years I thought it would be quite straight forward Oh no, the 3 customer service people I spoke to were useless Great way to run a business

  • gingerlegs747
    Gingerlegs747 (@gingerlegs747) reported

    @dshensmith @Benleo @virginmedia I had a customer that I went out to maybe 10 times for endless disconnections on their WiFi, turns out they had fitted her a faulty refurbished router from day one.

  • IamCarrieagain
    Carrie (@IamCarrieagain) reported

    @virginmedia You turned off my router remotely and you can turn it back on until I am well enough to deal with trying to set up the new one. Thought of indirect discrimination under EA 2010? How about the fact your were not up front about your service changes/consequences too?

  • IamCarrieagain
    Carrie (@IamCarrieagain) reported

    @virginmedia No, you absolutely don't understand. Leave me alone. Maybe I will be well enough at some point in the future to sort this. Maybe not. Your treatment of disabled people and your withholding of key information to a customer is disgusting. I'm cut off now, thanks.

  • ProudWhiteMe
    ProudWhiteMe (@ProudWhiteMe) reported

    @Benleo Virgin Media has the worst customer service that i have ever experienced. It is almost impossible to speak to someone who speaks English well enough to understand what is going on. Its chat bots are a waste of space. Yet they continue to put their costs up every year without fail

  • burgs2010
    Nick Burgin - Horror Writer (@burgs2010) reported

    @Mccartney2Phil @virginmedia Down for 8 days. Started our contract last Wednesday and still haven't been able to watch TV 😡

    @virginmedia why on earth is my internet so slow. Only been with you 2 months and it is terrible for the past 3 days. My son is trying to revise for his GCSEs for 2 exams tomorrow and this is not good. Nothing will load. Get this sorted asap
