@virginmedia this awful service is part of the reason I'm leaving. Over an hour of trying to get told lines are busy, no queue or anything just call back later

@rabbiton @virginmedia We had such trouble with them too. 3 times we were let down. One chap claimed he couldn’t climb up a ladder for H&S reasons but knew a chap who would for an extra £50. We had to complain multiple times. Hope they offer you some compensation.

@EE @nick_pope You are penalised for loyalty. Service providers will always try everything to keep you, but it will often be once you’ve made the decision to move. I had no less than. 5 calls from @virginmedia when I cancelled my contract. That. Ship. Sailed!

@virginmedia No faults, no. Speed is low on both wired and wireless. Was getting 200mb correctly for the first week of my contract back in September, but issues since then.

It's 11:45. Having been awake until about 6 or so this morning for the election count, my alarm was set for 8 so I could be up in time for the @virginmedia engineer to fix my broadband. They'd be here between 8 and 12 they said. Clock's ticking...

@virginmedia The person I spoke with was very arrogant on the phone and was reading off a script. No help just said there was no record. We have problems with our internet daily and I try to work from home but I always end up in a local coffee shop using their internet that is #btinternet

@virginmedia @Virgin_Victoria @cyclingbetting What a useless response! It’s clearly across the country, your website is down so can’t check faults and no internet is down as well!

@virginmedia Your customer service is a joke! I've been on the phone over an hour and spoken to 9 different people to be lied to and told the engineer tried knocking and calling my mobile this morning (I've been home all morning but had no one at the door and no missed calls).

@virginmedia Media Services. We were offered a deal back in July which was all sports, movies and kids channels for around £111. Since then we have had our wifi and box and each time I call about one of these issues you clear the deal from our account. This month billing us £215!!!

@virginmedia Each month I've had to make subsequent phone calls to have you rectify the bill. I called 2 or 3 times before this bill came out and was assured that it would not happen again. And as expected it has. Absolutely disgusting service!

@virginmedia sort out your call centres! I was told I would get credit due to the problems I’ve been having with the internet. But now I’m told that won’t be happening! #virgininternetdown #allthetime #sortitout

Awful customer service from @virginmedia As a long-standing customer I only called to see if there were any offers available, but of course these are only for new customers and told I have best deal already. I doubt that. Same old story. #disappointed

@virginmedia We were told we would get a call back within 72 hrs on Sat morn but no call. Every time we call we spend 90 mins on hold. We are new customers & have numerous problems. Now considering cancelling due to appalling customer service. Please can someone contact me.

@virginmedia 200mb package, as I said. No devices that are actively causing the issue - it’s been happening for some time regardless of what’s connected.

Wait all day for the 16:30 kick off. Don't watch anything and pay £70/month for this. Sat on the phone for half an hour trying to speak to someone. Shocking. If you can't deliver what you promise then cancel my subscription. 👊 @Virgin @virginmedia

@virginmedia No issue with the television. The chromecast and other HDMI devices work fine. The TiVo box appears on, but is providing just a blank screen. It seems to respond to the remote, but no output. Switched HDMI and TV port.

@virginmedia Yes but your help says to use 192.168.0.1 when in modem mode as you can see on the image

@virginmedia Shame you can’t keep everyone connected, I’ll be cancelling mine as I’m sick to death of losing connection on my broadband, wouldn’t mind once but when it’s nearly everyday, love taking our money but can’t provide the service you promise, what a laughing stock of a company!!!

@virginmedia I did call but not much joy. There cant be that much difference in price between movies and sky sports but the increase was awful. I cant wait for my contract to end because then I will definitely be going to @SkyUK

@virginmedia Thanks for the reply guys. Sadly the issue keeps coming and going. The screen freezes then I get two green lights on the front on the router. One of these then flashes before I get red lights on the front of my TiVo box.

What a shambles of a company @virginmedia are. I left them in january this year as their prices kept creeping up. I have been getting bills ever since and have made numerous phone calls to their customer services who on speaking to them say i actually dont owe any money

@virginmedia now on 7th day of no internet in the IG6 area. Everyday you say it will be sorted. Not ideal when most people are working from home!!!! You do not even keep us up to date on the issue. Disappointed and will be moving to BT!!

And it is a mistake on their end. They keep saying a manager will phone me back to sort out. This has never happened. This week i received a letter from a debt collection company saying i now owe over £200 in unpaid bills. Phoned @virginmedia again yesterday
