Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England@virginmedia I first informed Virgin Media that my internet was down via online chat on Friday afternoon. Will this have automatically been the time when my loss of service was registered as at the time the advisor said it would be fixed in 24 hours?
-
Tom Rushton (@tomrushton88) reported from Haydock, England@virginmedia Don't use this company its disgusting and disappointing the way they treat customers.

-
Alec Holloway (@HollowayAlec) reported from Stretford, England@virginmedia is unbelievable that our Internet is so poor, trying to contact someone via phone on numerous occasions waiting for over 45 minutes to speak with someone. Still haven't been able to get through to anyone.

-
Steve Maslin (@SteveMaslinG) reported@MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK My 88 year old Mum was in hospital 6 weeks, Dad called her every day until Virgin Media cut off his phone without warning. Dad never missed a bill but they said he had exceeded his limit. When I complained their rep shouted "It's for their protection". Virgin Media are scum.
-
Shaun (@shauny67) reported@virginmedia @weyland76 From your picture it is not a Virgin issue it's your device, it's not released the network connection from the mobile connection. Best response is to restart to device then will connect stop blaming Virgin
-

🌍 Anitaaaa (@Anitaaaa_W) reported@Stsantek @virginmedia That is absolutely disgusting. My mum is with virgin and I’ll be moving her in a few months when her contract is up. They’re customer service is absolutely ****
-
AstralPunk (@astral_punk) reported@MichelleBeckett As a long standing @virginmedia customer, I can confirm that they are number 1 for utterly abysmal customer service in every regard.
-
nico 🏁 (@bombdiggy__) reported@theashrb They all read of a script. If Customer wants A then take this step to see if you can offer them B instead. I hate O2/virgin media
-
MR COOL (@Lifeline04India) reported@virginmedia Team I am waiting for 5 days it’s still the same. Can u help me to fix the issue? I don’t know if it’s connected to router.
-
+(_)/\/\%|€ ©°°| (@tumble_cool) reported@virginmedia I left your service in June 26 after well over a decade with VM. Since that time I've been spammed with multiple emails saying' We’d love to ask you a few questions about your recent experience.' I am not here for your quality control. I am now with a rival of yours.
-
Gold (@MoonwalkOnGold) reportedBut then again I saw a news report about @virginmedia customers this past week so I'm not surprised @VirginAtlantic is just as bad. Terrible!
-
Steve George🏴 (@George66Steve) reported. @virginmedia my broadband services on TV are down. Your app says you're aiming to fix this by 15 July at 16.07 (the false specificity impresses me not one jot). The issue number is F012372779. The issue started yesterday. Why on earth am I paying forca service that I will not..
