  • lizdeoli liz de oliveira (@lizdeoli) reported from Sudbury, England

    @virginmedia I have rung twice waited over 2 hours and still can’t sort out a request to cancel an account for someone who has learning difficulties and is escaping domestic violence. Disgraceful

  • Da_Hayts Mark Hayton (@Da_Hayts) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia suggest you get more technical support staff!! Second attempt to get support after being disconnect after an hours waiting in a queue😡

  • lukeredpath Luke Redpath (@lukeredpath) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia @ruskin147 It’s also affecting your 4G mobile data service so every time your broadband goes down so does the 4G and we lose all of our internet access.

  • Greenking66 Chris Green (@Greenking66) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Hi would it be possible for someone from your customer care based in the uk to phone me please.

  • lukeredpath Luke Redpath (@lukeredpath) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia trying to find your TV only plans on your website is a nightmare. Can’t do anything on your slow clunky mobile website.

  • lukeredpath Luke Redpath (@lukeredpath) reported from Colchester, England

    @jasonkneen @virginmedia That page never seems to work for me.

  • philipcook1974 Philip Andrew Cook (@philipcook1974) reported from Layer-de-la-Haye, England

    @virginmedia I have had enough of your poor service 😡 talking to people who lie, can’t answer my questions so then hang up!! I have 3 mobile contacts with you my 2 daughters & my own, it’s a shocking service. All I want is the deal I signed up to 😤

  • philipcook1974 Philip Andrew Cook (@philipcook1974) reported from Layer-de-la-Haye, England

    @virginmedia Had enough - paying for a service - not getting what I pay for & just getting know where fast!!!!

  • lizdeoli liz de oliveira (@lizdeoli) reported from Sudbury, England

    @virginmedia Amazing how you won’t sort out the problem with the account holder but you’ll speak to someone else about the account without the account holder’s permission!

  • MichaelGagaHale Michael Gaga-Hale (@MichaelGagaHale) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Got a notification that the service has been fix. It hasnt, I still have no wifi or tv. Earliest an engineer can come is Saturday 🙄

  • jj_phoenix66 JJ_phoenix (@jj_phoenix66) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia We turned everything off overnight & service had resumed this morning.checked yr svs system last night & there were reported failures in colchester & around the UK.Having been a prior customer o f20 years, whenever it rains then sunny, you always have issues!

  • dwmw2 David Woodhouse #FBPE (@dwmw2) reported from Great Bardfield, England

    @treysis @noIPv6 @omnomis @virginmedia @tschaeferm @adam_as61 Nah, @AskCiti always used to be the only way to get competent customer service. At one point I almost took to using them first without even bothering to go through the proper channels first.

  • CordenGemma ❤Gemma❤ (@CordenGemma) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia when will we have normal service again.

  • philipcook1974 Philip Andrew Cook (@philipcook1974) reported from Layer-de-la-Haye, England

    @virginmedia The worst bit you get one letter on 6th Nov saying your case is being investigated & apologising for taking 8 weeks to sort, two days later the case is closed as I didn’t reply to a letter 4 weeks earlier I never received!!!!

  • philipcook1974 Philip Andrew Cook (@philipcook1974) reported from Layer-de-la-Haye, England

    @virginmedia Please can you assist before I take this further @richardbranson as your customer care is certainly way off the mark. Kind regards Phil Cook

  • Greenking66 Chris Green (@Greenking66) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I done the scan and the signal upstairs is weak and very very slow😕

  • jimaxyn Jimmy Regan (@jimaxyn) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I spoke to the team, they will arrange a repayment, my issue is that when you want the money, even if it's on the wrong day, you get it instantly, when I demand a refund it's 4-5 business days and that means I incur charges due to your mistake

  • Da_Hayts Mark Hayton (@Da_Hayts) reported from Colchester, England

    Terrible service keeping me waiting for an hour by @virginmedia

  • MichaelGagaHale Michael Gaga-Hale (@MichaelGagaHale) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I’ve done that. Think you just need to find and engineer that can fix it now.

  • MichaelGagaHale Michael Gaga-Hale (@MichaelGagaHale) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Now its 1600 tomorrow. Pathetic really, no explication for the fault or reason for delaying fix time.

  • 4442444its A (@4442444its) reported

    @virginmedia Hi . What do you mean you don't support vpn's? Is this a new thing? It was working fine until two days ago. Are you saying I need to change to Sky?

  • TerezaLoux Tereza Louise Kirwan (@TerezaLoux) reported

    @virginmedia have got to be the WORST rip off serviced and boast the most frustrating customer service business EVER Draining ..... like if you agree!

  • DaMall1n DM (@DaMall1n) reported

    @CallyM_ @virginmedia @virginmedia might be worthwhile jumping on this straight away “piss poor” is fair on this occasion

  • danjack1871 Daniel Jackson (@danjack1871) reported

    @virginmedia I booked an appointment this evening (for Friday morning), but didn’t book one beforehand as I was specifically told by your customer service that there was a problem in my area and engineers were working on it? Is there no record of this?

  • grant_cherry Grant Cherry (@grant_cherry) reported

    @virginmedia WiFi has been down for two days not in SW London, what’s going on?

  • Marlon_Ferro Marlon (@Marlon_Ferro) reported

    @virginmedia Compensation doesn't help during the last 8 days or right now

  • TheBn102 Bn102 (@TheBn102) reported

    @virginmedia I am and have been since December 2016. Your marketing team decide to harass me from time to time despite my preferences, but this is by far the worst.

  • gregofallgregs Greg (@gregofallgregs) reported

    @virginmedia Absolute joke of a company. Put me in touch with someone who can actually help and talk more than 3 sentences of english in 45 minutes. Nothing has been fixed. New router still hasn’t solved intermittent connection issue. No effort from technician to resolve issue
