@virginmedia It’s only been in the past few weeks that it’s gotten so bad. I was getting updates 2 weeks ago from @EE saying they were doing work in my area, but have heard nothing since. Shame you don’t have wi-fi calling

@Poxo01 We have been battling rising costs and poor service with @virginmedia for years. Have argued down the contract repeatedly due to issues. Just got the internet and home control stable again and then get another price increase letter. Fed up with them.

@MrPaulTreadwell @virginmedia @Ofcom I’ve just spoken to a very rude lady in retentions. Have been lied to, apparently I was on the internet all day yesterday, I was in the office.

@BankerJase @virginmedia I’ve yet to deal with a Virgin Media team that provide decent customer service. Which is why I’ve given up on TV/Telephone. Broadband will only last if they maintain a service.

@stephanemassey @VirginMediaCorp You should leave Virgin Media, I can pretty much guarantee the service won’t improve and you’ll be left with no internet on a regular basis.

@virginmedia Nonsense. If you valued me as a customer I would not have gone through 3 months of unanswered calls and when I did speak to staff- accusations of lying. Check your records before cut and pasting bland replies.

@_gl_lxuise @SkyUK @virginmedia Same problem here. They keep saying they have fixed the issue when they clearly haven’t. They are good at putting prices up but not at fixing issues. I’m going back to Sky.

@gaz112 @virginmedia That'll be the same @virginmedia that sends passwords out by post, complete with other sign in information. They're pretty much a joke at this point.

@virginmedia utterly appalling customer service once again. 15 minutes on hold to cancel a contract miss-sold to me.

@virginmedia up to their scams again and when you get through all the button pressing on the phone and are past from one to another then when you start asking questions they hang up .

@virginmedia Price rises, overseas call centers, the time spent on the phone listening to the nausiating voice. Suggest you look at social media and learn about your shocking reputation and customer service. Im out !!

@MrCMorley @virginmedia If it’s anything like the ongoing outage in Four Oaks they won’t bother to contact you. I checked they had my correct details and I’ve had no updates. I’ve now cancelled my contract.

@virginmedia Your an absolute joke of a company, you charge me £50 a month for broadband and it hasn’t worked for the last 2 months, 4 people in our street have the same problem but yet when an engineer comes out they claim they’ve fixed it when they havent,sort it out,disgrace.

@EE Hi Mark. In the last few months, signal has been on and off like a yoyo, with total downtime last week which made working from home difficult. @virginmedia also died too, so wasn't a great day 😅 Other half uses Voxi and had no issues with connectivity.

@ChrisScottBtn I’m fed up of this process year on year with an ongoing problematic service. Three complaints, two left unanswered. And then the onus is on you to chase! I cannot be bothered with them anymore. That’s the level customer service I’ve come to expect from @virginmedia now.

@virginmedia So frustrating. Been with you 6 months now. Called customer service they said they sorted the problem and they havent. still cannot sign into any online media despite resetting the password several times. Internet is shocking as well as customer service.

(@BenMason232) reported
@virginmedia @virginmedia Don't give me the small print T&Cs nonsense. Just explain to me why you feel it's acceptable to charge me £250 because YOU CANNOT PROVIDE ME YOUR SERVICE. If I was trying to cancel, fair enough. But I'm not. U don't offer the service where I'm moving.

@virginmedia @virginmedia I've had a look and a lot of people have reported similar issues. Please can ours now just be rectified and us compensated, or I will be forced to terminate the contact early.

@virginmedia 40 mins on the phone to find out I can either stay with rubbish #VirginMedia, and not get the service for which I pay or I can pay £240 to end my contract. #VirginMedia is rubbish

@virginmedia Hi. Could someone get in touch please. I'm having issues logging in to my virgin media account despite the fact that I know for 100% certain that the account name and password are correct. Thanks

Lady Dave
(@LadyDaveO) reported
@virginmedia Apparently the compensation is only applied with a total loss of service whereas mine is intermittent, turning on and off every few seconds. So while unusable for me, it provides #VirginMedia a great loop hole

@sebmatthews @virginmedia @SkySports Always had trouble cancelling services in the UK. Unless you give them 6 months notice and chase weekly. Not to say we haven't had our issues here too.

@virginmedia No. It’s useless. Our whole street is down, and we have all been reporting and phoning. Your website bears no resemblance to our scenario which includes not being able to work from home.

@virginmedia Yes we know that it is not showing any problems in the area - we have had those phone conversations over the last 3 days. However there are problems as all houses supplied by virgin do not have broadband. You need to send out engineers today!!!
