    The @BBCiPlayer on @virginmedia is absolutely useless. So unresponsive and slow. The sport is finished by the time it eventually loads.

    @virginmedia Your customer service is absolutely shocking. You have cut off a vulnerable pensioner twice in the past 72 hours for reasons of your own error, leaving her with no means of communication whilst apparently being unable to fix the issue for 24 hours. Shocking! 🤬

  • AGM60
    Andy Murdoch (@AGM60) reported from Wemyss Bay, Scotland

    @virginmedia Therein lies part of your issue. Contact centre customer service non-existent. No accountability. Empathy zero and telephony platform not fit for purpose @richardbranson I look forward to a resolution as per an email now received. Confidence low unfortunately.

    @virginmedia I don’t want to leave been a customer of Virgin media for 30 years, and I’m told my monthly data allowance is used when I connected to WiFi, customer service on 789 was insisting that was the the case , and on web chat exactly the same. What am I meant to do when nobody can help

    @mcneill_craig @virginmedia They don't make live chat easy to find for existing customers. If you are a new customer browsing packages it's there. But minute you log in to VM online the function vanishes into thin air

    @virginmedia Hopeless customer service. All you had to tell me was yes or not if it was virgins fault in my area. But then again your just a call centre and hopeless.

    @virginmedia Just spent 90 min on the phone technician took 20 min to fix internet signal so will see how long that lasts he was very helpful then put me through to get a better deal on my package and was on hold for 70 min unbelievable and still no answer time to move on 😡

    @virginmedia getting really fed up with your service. Too many times I get message about can't connect to hub or some other connection problem. Cant even watch recordings as its on unit in living room. Bloody annoying for what you charge.

    Stuart Mills (@MooeyMills) reported

    @virginmedia you need to employ more staff it’s impossible to speak with a human being when support is needed and your online solutions are totally inadequate and result in unwanted enineers visits

    linda butler (@butler47) reported

  • AndrewW12290183
    Andy W (@AndrewW12290183) reported

    @virginmedia Still yet to happen. Plus you will still keep my money for a TV subscription that I never signed up for. Virgin does not reward customer loyalty. I also see you think customers issues are funny

    Hello @virginmedia the Internet has been down since 7.30am and I haven't been able to register a loss of service on your website. Wtf

  • AndrewW12290183
    Andy W (@AndrewW12290183) reported

    @virginmedia Why ? and I don't appreciate the laughing face as this is no joke. I complained about being charged for a TV package I never signed up for. Nothing happened. I leave Virgin but I have to chase you to return your quipment. Hopefully Friday will be the end of dealing with Virgin
