  • 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.

  • 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.

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

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

  • kennythekilt kenny wilson (@kennythekilt) reported from Colchester, England

    @AlanWhitaker83 @virginmedia Terrible staff terrible service and not getting to cancel an accounting only opened today but due to poor customer service I want out!!! Told call back Saturday

  • 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!!!!

  • 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 🙄

  • 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

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

  • 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!!!!

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

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

  • 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.

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

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

  • vinsofficial_ Vinicius dos Santos (@vinsofficial_) reported

    @virginmedia It seems to happen on both, and I've called 3 times now and my issue doesn't seem to get solved. I've ran the test on the phone, with both the robot and with an actual employee. They said within 48 hours it would be fixed and still nothing has given.

  • rifaterdemsahin 🦄 Erdem 🦄 (@rifaterdemsahin) reported

    @virginmedia @erdem @vmbusiness resolved the issue. It was my bad a disconnected cable and the 2.5 mhz wireless is just not fast enough or there are other issues. would there be fttp in cb11bb ?

  • katheri23524514 kittykat (@katheri23524514) reported

    @virginmedia It's Internet and TV, service has been awful for weeks, cutting out or not available repeatedly

  • vinsofficial_ Vinicius dos Santos (@vinsofficial_) reported

    @virginmedia Currently I'm subscribed to 200MB, and the speeds I get vary so much, my main issue is ping/ms. I used to get 25/30 ping/ms and now its 40 stable and it spikes to 20,000, 15,000 it's ridiculous.

  • giangiuk72 Giangi (@giangiuk72) reported

    @virginmedia Cant get hold of your billing team and 3 months free never materialised! Awful service @virginmedia

  • vinsofficial_ Vinicius dos Santos (@vinsofficial_) reported

    @virginmedia Why is it when I have an issue with my broadband speed, your employees instantly result to trying to up-sell me instead of fixing the issue at hand? What is going on with your customer service, I'm seriously considering moving to a different ISP

  • P_C_Boyd Peter Boyd (@P_C_Boyd) reported

    @virginmedia Issue is happening on almost all channels

  • Philmmaker1111 Philip Iyegbe (@Philmmaker1111) reported

    I keep saying it but I really need to do something about ditching @virginmedia thought it was convenient but they don't know the meaning of an uninterrupted service. #whysopetty

  • simonwds Simon Woods (@simonwds) reported
