    Adrian Malaiet (@malaiet) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia worst internet provider in UK, appalling service

  • Anthony_Lonres
    Anthony Payne (@Anthony_Lonres) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Your online status reports no faults but as I said in the thread, I have called your support centre at least 10 times & they confirm there is a fault which has been the case since the 2nd of March. I am assured, every time I call, that it will be fixed within 7 days. It never is

  • GaborPfalzer
    Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @Mike_Randazzo1 @virginmedia Thought about it, but it’s most likely a management directive, nothing will happen. All I want is my package, set up the new flat, and not hear about them until we cancel again, hopefully last time.

    @virginmedia @Big_Stylo Guys, your service page isn’t working. You need to listen to what your users are saying rather than just repeating the same response

    Like night follows day, it gets a bit hot and @virginmedia goes down. Useless #virginmediadown #virginmedia

    @virginmedia i have been loyal customer and i asked if i change my package to phone and broadband as its far more affordable for me seeing the prices. You refused offering me what is on offer i find at absolute ridiculous and unvalued therefore requested cancellation.

    Joseph Machta⭐⭐ (@pepemac27) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia hey there. Our broadband has been down since yesterday and the estimated fix time keeps being put later and later. My wife is working from home today so it's pretty impossible. Please could we have some sort of replacement dongle in the mean time?

  • MissMikaSimmons
    MIKA SIMMONS (@MissMikaSimmons) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Hi - my wifi still isn’t working. I’ve texted you and now tried to call you to cancel with no answer from either. Can I ask where is the money from your customers being spent?

  • Julia___Valerie
    Julia Valerie (@Julia___Valerie) reported from Kensington, England

    @dazzleeds @virginmedia Have exactly the same experience with @virginmedia - customer service does not exist but the charges are taken and increased without fail. For three weeks have been trying to get in touch and get some support with zero result argh 😖🤯😭😭😭😭

    @virginmedia F*k YOU. No wifi for a week. Waiting for a supervisor to call me back within 24 hours. FOUR DAYS Later and 2 IDIOT technicians ... cancel my service NOW. I’m moving my building Into the 22nd century. Keep playing with copper wires See ya *******

  • GabrielaLungu
    Gabriela Lungu (@GabrielaLungu) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Right… in the meantime I trust you won’t charge us. No service should at least mean no pay. If not also a bonus for the disruption and the frustration caused 😑

  • GaborPfalzer
    Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @AlexanderTroup @virginmedia I guess there is a retention quota of some sort, that needs to be hit for some big wig get a big fat bonus. Especially, since we staying a customer anyway, just different account.

    Martin Jones (@MHartleyJones) reported

    @virginmedia OK Thanks. A technician will be visiting us tomorrow, though I suspect that the fault is in your exchange switch. My point is that you should keep repairs and sales separate. A customer with a serious phone problem is unlikely to buy extra services at that time.

    @europa I had @virginmedia once. The worst service I have ever had. Cancel. @VirginMediaIE

  • TruthAsylum121
    (Re)Search & Destroy (@TruthAsylum121) reported

    THREAD 9 — COMMUNITY CALLING AND THE MONEY BEHIND THE DEVICES The Community Calling programme gives us another important part of the story. Virgin Media O2 and Hubbub have worked together to collect and redistribute unwanted smartphones. Migrant Help has been one of the organisations receiving devices for asylum seekers and refugees. Then there is the Tech Lending Community Fund. The first phase was worth £400,000 and supported charity partners to establish tablet-lending hubs. The projects included organisations such as Thames Reach, the Kurdish and Middle Eastern Women’s Organisation, Willowacre Trust, Refuge and Leeds Refugee Forum, with tablets and O2 data being made available through the programme. In Swansea, around 700 donated phones were distributed through a Community Calling project, with O2 providing 12 months of free data, calls and texts. Swansea Asylum Seekers Support made 127 referrals to the scheme in 2021. Its records also show £8,175 spent on phone top-ups, covering 1,160 £10 top-ups. There was another £2,400 provided by Hay Brecon Talgarth Sanctuary for Refugees. The funding came through organisations including the Moondance Foundation, Comic Relief/SCVS Emergency Fund and Welsh Government/SCVS Integration Care Fund. This is where the investigation starts moving beyond technology companies. There is philanthropic money. There is council money. There is Government money. There is corporate money. And there are charities distributing the resulting technology.

    @nicolatallant Nicola...with your experience in investigative journalism you should be all over this! I have never heard of such widespread corruption. You know what should be done here. Do the right thing. Ask the questions.... Start with the Shilling report...or how about the fact there is NO PULSE RECORD for #MrP regarding the allegations and subsequent harrassment of #MrP. The enablement and cheek turning is disgusting. Do your job. @rtenews @virginmedia

  • finn33
    Caroline (@finn33) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve done the trouble shooting steps. You’ve checked that I’ve paid my bills. Hence the comment about the engineer. I don’t need to give you any other details.

  • colonbarbarian
    Captain Howdy (@colonbarbarian) reported

    @denchaser @virginmedia I love my VM broadband, but dealing with their "customer service" team is like banging head against a brick wall. I just renewed my contract, still being charged twice as much as a new customer. Offered me £55 a month then went up to £59 as soon as I went to accept it.

  • Yuzi87
    Greg Cunnington (@Yuzi87) reported

    @virginmedia You gave me no other option but to pay £68 a month while a new customer will pay less than me forever.

    Ruth Whalley (@Leftdoubleclick) reported

    @virginmedia My iron tripped out. We got everything up and running again, but no internet, no landline, no fire to, no sound bar.we rang you for help. You said you would send an engineer at around 7pm this evening. This is very poor service.

    Savannah (@justicenowxxx) reported

    @O2 @O2Help @VirginMedia I have been ignored for a week by your complaints team. I am now in Mexico with no service at all despite written assurances that Mexico is covered under my Inclusive Zone benefit. Complaint ref: C‑2707267834. Urgent senior‑level fix required today.

    @WeAreOpenreach @NeilJac74898351 @virginmedia In this case it looks like Virgin media has its fttp networks also available via nexfibre but a couple of addresses they don’t serve do exist. If at one of those then retailers on Openreach network are the way.
