@virginmedia I've already spoken to them many times including tonight and they can't do anything other than tell me that the date has moved yet again. Nobody seems to be able or willing to fix your broken status system.

@virginmedia Your service status online tells me everything is fine, even when I run a test, while tech support can only tell me that there IS a fault and the estimated repair date has been shifted yet again, this time to April 21st. SMS updates are useless too. It's absolutely infuriating.

@virginmedia Your various automated customer service systems are a horrible mess, they flat out contradict each other! It's shamefully bad & has been so for a long time so this can't be news to you. Why have @virginmedia STILL not done anything about these basic customer experience problems?

@virginmedia @virginmedia will someone actually be able to help us or will we get the same service we’ve been getting from various people we’ve been talking to? I don’t know how else to escalate this anymore!!! It’s taken so much of our time and added stress ...

@virginmedia Surely you must agree that your service status is useless if there's a fault for 15 days but doesn't once give me a correct status? Why is the status tool broken and why is it not being fixed?

@virginmedia don’t appreciate being hung up on by your despatch team. I’m aware of an issue today in the SE20 area, however I have had issues with my connection for the last week - could you please help since your call centre won’t?

@virginmedia We signed a new contract and we were meant to have internet connection by Monday/Tuesday. We still don’t! We called then on Wednesday and they said they call back. They never did. We called yesterday. They said they’ll look into it. Nothing yet!!

@virginmedia It says on that website that the issue my be fixed by 5pm on Monday! More than 3 days to fix an issue... It shows how much you care about your clients. Appalling.

@virginmedia Apparently a local fault but my signal test says no issue -still not resolved and still no TV -follow up call that was promised within 3 days hasn’t materialised (Day 6 and counting)

This was day *15* of working from home with no broadband thanks to @virginmedia and no reliable information about fixing the outage, no provision of an alternative connection (e.g. 4G dongle) and many hours wasted on hold. No wonder they are worst-rated by @WhichUK - avoid! 🤬

@virginmedia None, sadly. Email updates promised & never arrived. A call from an engineer also promised & never happened. The social media team have been responsive. Other parts of Virgin much less so.

@virginmedia Hi - I did speak retentions but they only offered me £29 of current contract for 6 months. Wanted to change package totally and downgrade, was hoping for deal equivalent to new customer discount, as would be whole new package ( downgrading from ultimate oomph to big oomph)

@virginmedia there’s no service yet again and the care team is not responding and no way to get help. According to your service status everything is fine. Why did you cancel my engineer’s visit?

@virginmedia It wasn't like for like. It was to replace a tivo 500 with tivo 6. I now don't have any controls for a tivo 6! Again, the promise to send me 2 remote controls was made and nothing sent. I am going to call and cancel contract because I am not getting what I am paying for.
