@virginmedia This lithium service you use is to get people off social media. It obfuscates and is unable to resolve anything. I'll take my chance in the legal system and with independent ombudsman.

16 mins on hold to @virginmedia before I got through to someone who said she needed to transfer me to another department, the recorded message of that department said the number no longer exists and gave me the original phone number to ring! Some customer service that!!!

Anyone else on @virginmedia getting “To Be Announced” on virtually every channel. Tried rebooting, switching on and off. Strikes me that VM has gone to shit recently. Loads of channels have gone, close to sacking it off.

@virginmedia Every single day for the last week my router just turns itself off and starts to update or drops out completely. Paying a lot of money for this service and it just isn’t good enough.

@virginmedia The person that put me on hold said it looked like there was a problem in our area and tried to put me through to technical help but after music droning on for ages it just stopped. Have given up and watching a dvd instead

@simonrim @virginmedia Ended up removing them from our lives due to atrocious (being generous here) customer service. Even now they are threatening £130 charge due to them not sending out the box return kit.

Nice one @virginmedia I've missed all the 2nd half of the match now. No BB, no Tivo. And your still billing me a higher rate than was agreed when I did the tests which say no issues in my area. Tried resets.

@Dabooka @skybiggerpic @virginmedia It was my second attempt to be fair. First time they reduced the price rise to £1.50 per month, then I rang back a few days later to cancel. Found a better deal elsewhere but price was the driver for wanting to leave. Lovely @virginmedia agent was able to help!

If @virginmedia offer you a 6 month free upgrade do not accept it. It is a way of locking you into a further contract. Poor service as always

@virginmedia Before he put us through to the wrong dept. your customer service person was attempting to put us to technical to arrange a replacement hub (overheating, red light) That’s the stage we’re left at.

@virginmedia Just to let you know after purchasing a 3 party router the issue looks like it solved, now getting excellent wifi throughout the house with no drop outs, just some feedback the hub 3 is not fit for purpose please stop selling this router to your customers as it’s outdated

@virginmedia No, I have given the address and they said virgin cannot offer the services in that area. It is in Cornwall in the middle of farmland. I have been with virgin for many years and to be treated like this is pretty poor.

@virginmedia 9 days, 9 days you've left my mother without internet/tv and your terrible call centers either say "we can't do anything" or just hang up. How are you still so bad at customer service?

(@LeeHammond1987) reported
@virginmedia It's wireless - but it's literally about 8 foot away from the router. Other side of the room, no obstructions to it. The connection is just horrible, I reset the router all the time now, and it still doesn't do much. It's just not very good, despite boasting the best speeds.
