  • RedemptionBroon
    Redemption80 (@RedemptionBroon) reported from Birkenshaw, Scotland

    @GSpellchecker @virginmedia They are rarely competent, not as bad as Vodafone but no one is. Broadband speed wise though no one is close so no interest in cancelling.

    @virginmedia had the technician come out today after days of patchy service. Got the hub changed, and ... Service still terrible. And now I'm to wait "24 hours"...

    Wilson (@wilsonfkp) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia I guess it's being restored, I'm on a wired connection and last night and early this morning was like connecting and disconnecting, a bit unstable but I guess your team is working on it

    @virginmedia seems to be down in Renfrew... No internet for tonight 😭

    @virginmedia Well that's another inconvenience. I can't put into the limited characters what we've been through since Friday with your service.

    @virginmedia I have a complaint and cannot find a email address for it

    Holly McCormack 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Hollz2012) reported from Paisley, Scotland

    It seems I made a good call using the OVO priority link this morning and not one through virgin media. Joined a virtual queue of around 12,000 that took half hour and although would like to have been lower down at the gig, I can’t have many complaints. #peterkay

    Hey @virginmedia it’d be pretty cool if you guys fixed my internet at some point. Like i know I’ve only spent £30 trying to call you guys and I did get to speak to this nice angry man on your support line who hung up on me immediately (which is a bargain)

  • Coops_71
    Elenita (@Coops_71) reported from Thornliebank, Scotland

    @virginmedia I sent an email at 10.51 this morning which was delivered without any issues.

    bristian cungay (@ChristianBunga7) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia He treated me like I was stupid. Turned it off and on again and replugged the wires, he replaced the box and left. I mean I am stupid but there really was no need @virginmedia

    @virginmedia Hi, any issues affecting ML3 0QJ? Had no service on my broadband for about half an hour and its been on and off all day. Thanks.

    Andrew Bradley (@AndrewTOG) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    Well no @F1 the. Thanks to @virginmedia failing and not connecting. No customer support open and no response online… what dark age company is this ?

  • jimnimmo60
    oor Jim (@jimnimmo60) reported from Airdrie, Scotland

    @O2 @virginmedia probably the worst mobile phone company to deal with. Customer service is a joke. Trying to resolve fraudulent activity on my account and no understanding. Abysmal. Please go anywhere else except them. Just cut me off now.

  • Chban1967
    Banjo (@Chban1967) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia Absolute shambles of a company with absolute zero customer care. Phone up and agree a contract only to get something totally different phone to complain they tell you the phones getting cut off, the goalposts get moved continuously, communication atrocious. AVOID!!!

  • babslp_xo
    Babs 🤍 (@babslp_xo) reported from East Kilbride, Scotland

    @virginmedia why does your password reset function not work? Page says it’s down for maintenance when you click the reset link, been like this since I joined you in August and I need access to change my DD date

  • spongebath63
    Willem_Wikkelspies (@spongebath63) reported from Dennistoun, Scotland

    @virginmedia What is going on with your customer care(?) line? I call 789, I get an automated voice telling me that calls are not being connected to this number and I'm told to call 789 to speak to a member of the team, so i call 789, I get an automated voice.........!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • nuttynanaannie
    Anne Marie McPhee (@nuttynanaannie) reported from Motherwell, Scotland

    @virginmedia Thanks. I'll try that. When I do a status check it flags Tivo right away but shows no issues with broadband or phone when I then run a broadband check it says there's an intermittent fault in my area. !

    @virginmedia when I press the red button to access sky sports plus I no longer receive an error message. Has my box been successfully updated to fix this issue and I should now expect no further issues from this incident? Thanks @Virgin

    @Strudlehoffer @JFab208 @virginmedia I really do feel your pain. Are there any companies out there that even pretend to offer acceptable customer service?

    Mr Moanivator (@MrMoanivator) reported

    @virginmedia My broadband hasn't been working since around 11am today. All week, Virgin has said that work was due to be completed in my area around 11:15am today. It's now saying that the hub is the problem. I've restarted and reset it, but it's still not working 🤬
