    Wow @virginmedia is having a complete meltdown in my area and their automated service is telling me that this "short" interruption to my internet services should be resolved at 10 am tomorrow. That's 14 hours from now! What if my work depended on it?

    Our 4th day of no internet thanks to @virginmedia Can’t talk to a person. Fix date changes three times a day and it’s yet to be fixed. And yet they take a small fortunes out of our account every month.

    Please could @virginmedia on 0330 303 5309 stop calling me, then immediately hanging up. That’s rude. I’ve now blocked your number.

    @ameehan71 @virginmedia All new and reconnected. 200mb then next day nothing, comes on for a day then drops to 10mb. Talk to customer service and they don't have a clue. They also want over £400 for me to leave. Worst service I've ever known

    @virginmedia 14 hour wait for a response on your chat bot and I still haven’t passed security. That’s some service

    Helen Pinkers (@Barchetta66) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia So that’s it. We’re still no closer to solving this issue than we were when it went down at the beginning of the week. Absolutely dreadful service.

    @virginmedia help why have you made it so difficult to log a landline vault on line. Need to call, as line out of order since friday. I am certain it's systems fault as display message I have seen on previous occasions.

    @virginmedia How long have you got? I have just sat down in a restaurant to cry on a friend’s shoulder. The nice server said, “how are you?” I just burst into tears! Seriously. My disappointment is palpable. I want to go back to @BT

    @virginmedia as you know PR is important to a company. If you want to look good on the public eye and social media. I think you should automatically credit all customers effected by service issues Friday and last night. Hopefully I going to be able to watch the final episode of

    @virginmedia I managed to pay it in the end but please could you fix your website…there’s some weird redirecting happening when trying to either view or pay your bill. London/Broadband

    @virginmedia Hello Virgin Media, I’m trying to pay my monthly broadband bill online but when choosing pay bill it keeps redirecting me to your help page, so I can’t pay atm. When will this be fixed (won’t be paying late fees). Many thanks 🙏

    Cont… @virginhelp @virginmedia What can be so difficult that a COMPETENT team of engineers can’t fix in these days. The fact is we believe that virgin are a team of incompetents and the time has come for us all to leave Virgin. You are a disgrace.

    @TheFreds I've been with O2 since the very beginning and never had a problem. Even better now they've teamed up with virgin media.

  • Carolestfc1
    Carole Yeo 🌻 (@Carolestfc1) reported

    @virginmedia You've been "working on it" for days. I dont want to have to watch on a poxy little screen I want the service you get paid to provide. How much are you refunding sky sports customers for the loss of service ?

  • pgreen83
    Paul Green (@pgreen83) reported

    @virginmedia Could you reply to my DM? Absolutely shocking service with no accountability. £120 a month for what? No service, no customer service! Potentially you are in breach of contract and now ignoring customer complaints. Not a good look this!!

  • marcwalby
    The Yellow Head (@marcwalby) reported

    @IainSankey @virginmedia Interesting, this was going to be my move in October. I have never used the phone line and we don't watch any of the Virgin TV stuff. Was it really that hard to get just Broadband?

  • RyanCartiers
    RyanCartier (@RyanCartiers) reported

    @virginmedia No, that has resolved nothing. A fundamental change to actually learning to provide timely customer service is required. 6 min. to schedule a call back 20 min. later - approx. 30min lead time Pick up phone and resolve issue <5 minutes. who needs math class?

  • conjuredundead
    Conjured Undead 🧟‍♂️ (@conjuredundead) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, please help me further, by please looking into my issue and communicating clearly the fault and rectification plans.

    @virginmedia I don’t have sky sports as part of my package with you but have been able to watch it since Saturday. Is this part of the same issue?
