@virginmedia I have to say @virginmedia are one of the worst companies to contact if you have an issue. Their message system is a joke and accounts a shambles. @skyuk is looking a better prospect!!!!

@virginmedia Not really. I have made arrangements to bring my account up to date and close it as I am a responsible person. However as a result of the U Switch service not working. I have paid you £150 extra for a service that I have not used. So from my point of view I am very frustrated

@virginmedia down in #Basingstoke RG21 - call to find out its out between 10am and 3pm due to network improvements. Surely such a significant outage he should come with prior warning - how to damage #CX ! Could have been a great #CX if communicated well...

@virginmedia No real explanation, just he can’t do it today. I was surprised he already knew of the problem but didn’t stop his installer coming. I spoke to lots of folks today when I called, no one could give me an idea.

@Si_67 @VMO2News @virginmedia Had to make a complaint so they put the line on a month long diagnostic test to which they couldn’t confirm the fault and they’re letting me out of my contract early but basically refused to compensate me properly for my less than guaranteed speed

Ross
(@RossRoss012) reported
@virginmedia Yes I’m aware of that, that’s why I’m annoyed the appointment was missed, and no one can tell me why it was missed, so now I’m paying for a service I cannot use, due to a reason that no one can tell me.

@virginmedia I've tried everything the call centre have suggested and I've had a technician out who failed to fix the problem. Soft and hard reboot, checked all connections on all cables, forced network connection etc

@virginmedia Not a service issue, your packages offer some of the worst upload speeds on the market. Your 1gig fibre has what 50mb upload speed? with all lower packages with even less. Your 500mb package offers less than 10% upload speeds. It's been like this for over a decade.
