    @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...

  • AfroChuck87 Dan 🇪🇺 #TitanUp (@AfroChuck87) reported from Basingstoke, England

    . Why have you hung up on be after being on hold after 40 minutes. Your customer service is an absolute disgrace. You should be ashamed. @virginmedia

  • Gazimoff Gareth “Gazimoff” Harmer (@Gazimoff) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia That’s right. We’d moved house and we’re hoping to keep you with us, but there’s been over a month of delays (issues with current cable). I need it for work, so I’ve been forced to cancel and organise alternatives.

  • pBullox Paul Bullock (@pBullox) reported from Thatcham, England

    @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.

  • JamesHarrisNow James Harris (@JamesHarrisNow) reported

    @SianySE @virginmedia I had exactly the same with them. Eventually paid up after no internet service for some time (they charged me for the rest of the contract, of course)

    @virginmedia - I’m trying to get booster pods to help with the poor wifi that I currently have using your products. But there doesn’t seem anyway to get what you’re advertising. #nothappy

  • Gary_C_66 GaryC (@Gary_C_66) reported

    @virginmedia how do I get support for my broadband that was down all of last weekend and has been down again since yesterday? Your online chat is just a bot that cuts me off and there is no telephone number to call you.

  • thequeenvic18 The Queen Vic (@thequeenvic18) reported

    @virginmedia VM said no complaint can be raised, though in the end I think there are around 5 active complaints, and still nobody knows what is going on, everybody is saying different things. Why can nobody seem to help?
