@NOW awful service from you! You've messed me about for two weeks getting an engineer out to my #broadband and you still can't come for another 2 weeks despite the fact I'm a critical worker with no connection #cancelled and gone back to @virginmedia #usless

@virginmedia hi there, we’ve had internet issues since we went to sleep last night. We live in m30. There is a flashing green light on the box, I’ve been on your website to try and reset the box etc. Have you any idea what’s going on?

@virginmedia Told yesterday that it is a local problem due to be resolved by 12th August, however that seems to be a standard reply which is now becoming tiresome. We have to wonder if @virginmedia have fallen back in the hi tech department & that we should move on to a more reliable provider

@virginmedia when your marketing team ring you and tell you that you have internet issues, advised I didn’t have any issues and the rude call handler just hung up. Rang from 01484313420. Not the best reflection for the company is it.

I never been so mistreated by @virginmedia like I was today, the staff on the live chat literally "hang up" on me mid support... absolutely gutted, saved all the conversation and I will seek citizens advice over this, that is no way of treating a 6+ years costumer

@virginmedia Once again my sim card isn’t working. Please don’t ask me to call the service centre, I’ve tried and haven’t got that long to live. Happy to email you details if you give me an address.

@virginmedia told by them today that problems with “catch up” service not something that was paid for so in effect had to put up with the poor performance, in the end offered a tenner! Perhaps there is a better solution, ie get rid of them & get someone who cares 🖕

So many problems @virginmedia this year, poor system, poor WiFI, poor connections, poor customer service, all seem to be continually getting worse as does the response to complaints. Anyone else putting up with this poor quality? @skytv looking a clear future prospect

@virginmedia But that costumer service was abysmal, the person took ages to reply, and when it did, tried to sell me the same internet package I have for more than what I pay currently even...I don't want to have to upgrade my package to "fix" my internet, I just want the speeds I hired

@Netflixhelps I haven’t but I’ve streamed it via Virgin Media and EE’s mobile network, so it feels it’s not likely to be that? Can you or someone on the team try streaming it on iOS and letting me know if it works?

@virginmedia Terrible as always, you cannot deliver in this area, you’ve promised for a few years now but nothing changes, I’ve had to put us on unlimited data on the phones as the WiFi is not fit for purpose, I am on the highest speed apparently… shocking

Anyone else on @virginmedia getting that weekly thing when their internet collapses again on a Sunday night? I’ve asked them repeatedly and they deny it but it’s a weekly outage like clockwork #VMSundayOutage

@virginmedia WiFi down. The "check area" page says there are no local issues but when I run a test it says there are local connection issues. Bl5. Any idea if this is being looked into?

(@mjtolhurst) reported
How am I still waiting for @virginmedia to sort out my connection to my new home when they have admitted they caused the problem in the first place?? Cannot be passed through to another department - surely there is a limit to how many times you can be transferred!?

@virginmedia Having just spoken to the disconnections team, I now understand why VirginMedia hasn’t bothered to fix my email problem- apparently it’s not part of the “contract” and thus you’re under no obligation to provide the service!

@virginmedia Again, I am using it as a record of how rubbish the service has been.
