@virginmedia Thank you. This is the 4th fault in as many days. I’m sure it will come back soon, but repeated loss of service is incredibly disruptive when we’re all trying to work from home during the new lockdown.

Hey @virginmedia - third long-term outage in as many days in my area. What is going on and why is it impossible to talk to someone? Each time you triumphantly announced it’s fixed, something else breaks? This is unacceptable and your comms with customers is poor. #virginmediadown

Really bad customer service from @virginmedia . Was told that manager will call me within 1 hour. As expected, nobody called. Overcharged me and refusing to refund.

@virginmedia Virgin TV Go app on Android still down. One week now. This is not good. Missed loads of stuff when out and about. And yes I have uninstalled and reinstalled on multiple devices!

I think @Cosatto_Tweets has to have the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. And I’ve rung Virgin Media a fair few times.

@virginmedia why are your fibre upload speeds so slow? 10mbps upload on a 109mbps download speed? Sky and BT and others offer 20mbps download speed on their 67mbps download speeds.Please review this as when 2 people are working from home on video calls 10mbps up isn't fast enough

@virginmedia Internet is down. Your hotlines say there’s a “complex issue in SK4 area” and always say “should be back online soon”. It’s been 2 whole days! #whatsgoingon

@virginmedia Hi Ryan yes everything went fine. Chris is going to email me today just to confirm everything once he gets approval but he says it will be ok. He starts at 4 so he said it’ll be sometime after that. Thanks again for your help.

@CameronYardeJnr @virginmedia Apparently it’s a scam. The problem is the company’s actual call centres are so dreadful it’s almost impossible to tell the difference

@Cassetteboy @virginmedia Best of luck. Their customer 'service' is generally appalling.

@virginmedia yesterday you emailed giving me 23 days notice that my broadband bill is increasing by £216 a year when my contract ends. Today I tried to cancel at the end of the contract, only to be told I have to give 30 days notice. Why do you give 23 days and I must give 30?
-
Cameron Yarde Jnr
(@CameronYardeJnr) reported
@flamingnora @virginmedia This is the thing. I've never seen any follow up about it in an email or when I check online. And if there ARE foreign call centres they don't sound legitimate.

(@BobStapleton) reported
@virginmedia OK, if you ever get this mess sorted out I will be sure to use the same excuse when you phone me to pay my bill "I apologise for non payment but this issue has been raised with my bank and that is all I can do from this side" Thanks for nothing! #worstcustomerserviceever 🤬🤬

@virginmedia Yes and there are no issues in the area so it’s something in my house - my neighbour below is also having broadband issues. I need to book an engineer to come & check connection/equipment etc but can’t get logged in to do this either on computer or phone

@Cassetteboy Good luck getting it sorted. Virgin media customer service is the worst. Took me 5 days and over a dozen calls to get my package cancelled.
