@virginmedia The only solution you provide is to miss precisely what I pay you for, so you can get it fixed in time for me to watch in the main, what I don’t want to watch. You have no solutions beyond telling your customers to suck it up whilst you hoard extortionate subscription fees.

@virginmedia 1 hour on the phone with your technician making out it was a fault my end thanks for the worst customer service experience yet. The only thing that keeps me with your service is that no one else offers 350+ meg

for your services, not for these problems to occur. Whilst I think of it too. I’m very very disgruntled at the level of customer loyalty. Come on @virginmedia you can and should do better! 😡😡😡😡

@bucklandmatthew @virginmedia It’s really poor, I feel like you just spend most of your time going around in circles with them. Status page will say no issue, troubleshoot page says issue and to turn everything off. You do so and it still doesn’t work and you get the same message from the TS again.

So @virginmedia are doing a discounted deal plus £100 credit for ex service people who have the DDS card , very good of them if they didn’t tell me that it can only be done online!! So if you’ve served your country and decide to call them on the phone , tough! @discounts_mod

@virginmedia No thanks, I’m done. Literally spent hours on the phone to your customer services and I’ve had enough.

@virginmedia No, I’m on the super hub 2ac. I have got no wired connections and so am not/cannot check them. The box is working fine as is the internet through the box so I assume the problem is just with the WiFi.

@virginmedia We took the new deal online which included a television for being a new customer. Therefore, we got a second box fitted & 4 months later, still NO TV. For the first month, the box didn’t work properly & we were promised a discount of our monthly bill & that didn’t happen either.

@SkyUK was thinking of leaving @virginmedia but you broadband speed is way to slow even though BT say they can give 300 MB with ultra fast fibre. Now thinking doing a split tv with sky bb with vm. 😭

@virginmedia why have I still not got my problem resolved! 😡 Engineers have been, waited for appropriate fix, still no engineer or phone call. I’ve been talking with a helpline for 30 minutes today, and now I’ve got to wait an hour! for another phone call. 😡 I’ve taken the day

@virginmedia There was a fault that had an estimated fix of Tuesday at 18.00. We have had complete loss of connection like we had done before but now it’s intermittent and keeps dropping out. Issues since Sunday now, the fact we are on Friday is something of a joke.

So frustrated with @virginmedia service tonight, been on phone for over 40 minutes, broadband speed of 15 mbps not the 200 we upgraded too!!!!! And no getting the customer service rep to understand we have been complaining since Friday. #poorcustomerservice #hellosky

@virginmedia so still waiting for my return call about escalating a billing dispute, that was started Tuesday. Very poor service once again, and to be told in the call you can send an engineer to see if its crossed wires at a one off charge of £90 that's taking the ****.

@virginmedia Given that I can access the internet through the TiVo box I’d think the wired connection is ok. This is happening frequently now and there is never an issue shown on the status page but is often an issue when I run the troubleshoot. I’m increasingly fed up with the service.

@virginmedia Internet is ******* shocking. Every week we have connection issues and never any refunds for payment. Absolute joke. Will be swiftly looking for a new provider

@virginmedia Hi, as mentioned I have already tried these steps and I still do not have any internet access. Everything was ok until there appeared to be work being done on the box on our street last night. Been v poor and now not working ever since.

Why @virginmedia does your service status say broadband in NG5 is fine when it clearly is not (again!) - as confirmed by your offshore support team.

@virginmedia Your missing the point-I’m no longer a customer I want my emails back and account closed. Cyber Crime are involved and this is ridiculous #shameonyou @virginmedia @BBCWatchdog #blackmail

@virginmedia I’ve had two technicians out in the last 8 months who have both said ‘you won’t have any problems in the future’. My wifi cuts out every other hour, sometimes every other 20 minutes.

@virginmedia So who do we contact to get this sorted please? Your general customer service line was useless? Is there a special number or e mail we need to contact? Basically there’s been a number leak and spam scam callers have people’s numbers. What are you doing to sort this?

@virginmedia I’ve just checked it says there’s no issues but there is because my phone and iPad won’t connect to it

@virginmedia I was given a number to report it on an automated service. I don’t that weeks ago and still no response.

@virginmedia Yes and it was very unhelpful. As far as theybwere concerned the complaint is still open and I was advised to raise another complaint about my previous complaint to obtain the outcome! Surely this can't be correct?!

@virginmedia I’ve pressed 1 and it’s now asking for account number etc. I don’t have that as the flat we own is rented out. Is there another way of getting through to customer services?

(@lucia1806) reported
@virginmedia Just to follow on I have informed your Customer Service Team that if this does not get done to the correct standard we will going elsewhere. Its gone on long enough. Poor Service and poor Internet. Incidentally I spoke to a very rude unhelpful lady in your CS today. Very rude.

@virginmedia Thanks for your reply. It’s an intermittently very slow broadband speed. I’ve gone through troubleshooting steps (ie turned it off and on again) and no status issues, however when I try and run a test via the app/website it doesn’t seem to work.
