Well done to the engineers @virginmedia for sorting out my internet in Earl’s Court (ahead of time as usual). I appreciate that people have genuine problems, but we need to keep a sense of proportion. Especially compared with brave Ukrainians who face far worse troubles than us.

@virginmedia we’ve had no service in EC1V London, since our Wi-Fi was installed last month. We’ve tried to call countless time and we keep being told about “area issues” that would be solved the day after but never do. This is just unacceptable behaviour!

@virginmedia have had intermittent issues for over a month now, every time I go down the route of reporting the issue it just says wait 24 hours. How can I speak to someone about this as the phone number never gets me to a person?

@virginmedia This is false advertising. My broadband goes off more than it’s on and then it is so slow. I have lost count on the times I have called the help line. I have rebooted routinely, it works for a while then off again. I have had enough now as enough is enough!!!

Hey @O2 just struggled down to the shopping centre to take advantage of the @GreggsOfficial free hot drink & treat offer, via my @virginmedia account, (available until 0000 tomorrow apparently) but got here, and offers have disappeared from app or come up as ‘sold out’ 🤬🤬🤬🤬

@virginmedia ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE SERVICE! I’ve worked with major computer and ISP’s over my time but by far Virgin Media is the worst! I pay £111 a month and not one person can help. Intermittent internet for a month but they say just wait another week it may be back on!

@virginmedia I think I may have an idea what’s happened to your service in #borehamwood It looks like a kerbside box has been totalled by a drunk driver.

@virginmedia I have done this now 7 times since 28th Nov without any Virgin service. I just called for the 8th time as I am expecting a new hub today to now be told it’s not coming today . A long list of bad customer service. I am fed up . Don’t use Virgin media as for the customer your left

So it turns out @virginmedia have a help system that isn’t helpful. Catch-22 built into system and no tv. Why am I paying them?

@virginmedia very disappointed with the upgrade package in being offered by Virgin. You are offering a loyal customer to upgrade to Gig1 for £51.15 whereas new customers get it for £45 p/m. Where is the loyalty?

@virginmedia I’m going to get disciplined in work as I don’t have internet connection. Who can my employer speak with to confirm this is a virgin issue??

@virginmedia I have no broadband or phone, your online checker doesn't work and neither does your helpline. What's going on?

@virginmedia Look just leave it tonight. If it’s the same in the morning I’ll contact customer service to see how long it will take to close my account. Cheers for trying to help.

@virginmedia Still cutting in and out as it has been for many weeks… no local area issues listed anywhere. Have been trying to get ahold of someone for weeks now but just keeps looping in the app, really frustrating

A combination of @OpenreachHelp‘s incompetence by cutting through the internet cable outside my house and @virginmedia no showing for an engineering visit to fix it has me having to run my business through my phone hotspot until Friday. That’s if they show up, of course.

Can you please just sort out the broadband issues in SE9 @virginmedia Been ongoing since the 30th with timeline of resolution continually moving out.

@premierinn no Free WiFi or Ultimate WiFi at Premier Inn Euston. Twitter has lots of other complaints of the same issue nationally… why I am asked to speak to Virgin Media, how hard can it be? Forget Network does not force the page to reload, what else can I do?

@virginmedia I know!!! Your website online chat forces you to move to Whattsapp and then everything crawls along - but the phone line keeps failing after 30 mins wait. Not sure what to do about this replacement emergency backup line

@virginmedia There is really no point complaining when no matter how many times you talk around the issue and people say they understand and see your point, you still don’t get anywhere. Would be great if people didn’t fudge answers and lie when they don’t know what to say though.

@Defencebrief @virginmedia I had this and I went through the cancellations team and I was offered almost the same price as a new customer. They will do it eventually after a lot of haggling as they don't want you to leave.

@virginmedia Said there was issues with broadband, it told me to check cables/restart, have done so and WiFi now isn’t even coming up as a network option on my phone. Saying need to send a technician on next stage. Service level across the company is below par and would recommend any other

@virginmedia why do existing customer need to ring up to order your Stream device? Not wanting to be on hold for an hour I have purchased a @Roku device. Took me 2 seconds to order and will be here tomorrow. #lostbusiness.

@virginmedia No it’s fine il just cancel my direct debit and wait for Virgin to contact me , customer service is shocking and not helpful at all !! On your online community chat it states numerous times that the hub need replacing , why can you not just replace the hub

@virginmedia You have also just raised a complaint to get my issue resolved and then automatically closed my complaint. Plus the complaint contained all the wrong information even though your agent said that she had written it all down. What type of a joke service is this!
