    Hi @virginmedia is there a particular reason your engineers phone to say they are here but never actually turn up?

  • michaelclark09
    Michael Clark (@michaelclark09) reported from Sale, England

    @Shredda @virginmedia Oh damn, that's peak. Might just be a coincidence then 🤔

  • johnsonhomes2
    johnsonhomes (@johnsonhomes2) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia The guy I spoke to at VM yesterday said that she wouldn’t be eligible for a “disabled” phone line to be installed because it wasn’t claimed when they dug the front garden up 18 months ago. We were never given this as an option at the time, if we had we would have insisted on it.

    Been on a live chat to Virgin Media since 9:30. WFH joys. Not much work has been done. But got my bill down. #CozzieLivs.

    @virginmedia Hi, I’m trying to raise a complaint online but I’m not receiving any acknowledgment. Is there another way I can raise my complaint? Thanks

    Smyth Harper 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇺🇦☘️ (@sharper76) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia No it’s not, and it has now transpired that your customer services agent told me a direct lie that there was a fault in my area when there is not. Someone else has now booked an engineer to come out - next Wednesday. I can’t even have my heating on as that’s controlled vía wifi

  • SandyLindsay
    Sandy Lindsay MBE 🐝 (@SandyLindsay) reported from Sale, England

    Have @virginmedia gone down in South Manchester??? Been kicked off the wifi!

    @virginmedia As I say. I don't like publicly shaming a company that was once good. But your customer service is an absolute disgrace

  • WCONNOLLY2512
    William Connolly (@WCONNOLLY2512) reported from Manchester, England

    @beverleyturner @virginmedia Virgin Media had gone ****. Poor broadband, crappie TV channels and half don't even work.

  • EdwinDa18453545
    Edwin Daniel (@EdwinDa18453545) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia @richardbranson @VirginMediaCC unethical practice & worst cust serv.after 50 days of total loss of service and no resolution and taking 52 pounds for that period from me now they are denying compensation as well as refund of monies taken.

  • barrys59
    Barry Slater (@barrys59) reported from Barton upon Irwell, England

    @virginmedia still no service M27. 4th hour! Rubbish!

  • johnsonhomes2
    johnsonhomes (@johnsonhomes2) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia If that was the only issue than yes that would be the logical next step. But as you’ll see from the previous tweets and email sent on Wednesday it isn’t. All the issues need dealing with in the round or otherwise I’ll have to cancel and go back to sky.

    UtilitaRian 🔶 (@SoloUtilitaRian) reported from Bolton, England

    With the intro of new dedicated Gigabit lines in my street I can't wait to switch over and leave Virgin Media for good. 3x internet has gone down this week and I just called VM. The systems there are down and gotta call back in 3hrs..... useless

    @virginmedia 5 mins left in the match & forced to sit through 3x 20/30 second ads for Real Madrid Vs Bayern Munich. I promise you, whatever pennies you're gleaning from people tuning in late they are wildly offset by those who'll swear never to give you another penny otherwise.

    @virginmedia just to let you know the broadband is down again in Fareham, which is twice in a week. Please sort it out as it’s very frustrating

  • therealsambo121
    One day you'll see the truth (@therealsambo121) reported

    @virginmedia now at the sith attempt of trying to solve this issue! I'm going to quit My contact when it's up . Shame it's not now

  • formerprisoner_
    Reformed Prisoner (@formerprisoner_) reported

    @virginmedia 2/2 cont… ombudsman. You constantly failed to deliver a service, made constant promises and failed to deliver on them, so you were left with no choice but to agree to the cancellation. You are quite comfortably the worst broadband provider I have ever come across.

    @virginmedia @El_Lloydie Dont bother. You wont get any satisfaction. I sent a webform complaint in 27 march and an email to the CEO last weekend. Still waiting for a response
