    @virginmedia GT it would be easier if you could access a telephone and engage with a customer that needs assistance. I have now wasted another 20 mins of my time 😡😡 how do I get a resolution?

    @virginmedia Possibly the worst company I have ever dealt with. Cut off twice. I only wanted to buy a new remote. Absolute shambles of a company. Disgraceful customer service.

    @virginmedia any chance you can contact me regarding my house phone which hasn’t worked for 7weeks. Have written to Sunderland and spoken to robots, and constantly get told to dial 151 which I can’t as house phone line is the problem!ty

  • reid2131
    Craig Reid (@reid2131) reported from Larkhall, Scotland

    @virginmedia First of all, they said it would take 24 hours, then they said it would be working for 8am. Then a fault in the area, then there’s a delay in getting a test signal to the router. I’d just like the full functioning broadband I was sold.

    @virginmedia The solution is leaving so I don't have to use more electricity.

    TheGodofPod (Movie Daft) (@TheGodofPod) reported from Clydebank, Scotland

    @toptenpods @skytv I to have fell victim to this, but via Virgin Media, who it took fully 2 days to cancel with. Horrible experience for Mrs B.

  • MXK1000
    Dave (@MXK1000) reported from East Kilbride, Scotland

    Guys supposedly from @bt_uk going round the doors in EK saying my neighbours have complained of slow internet speeds. That's ok I'm on VirginMedia. They asked me to do a speed test on my phone. I told them to piss off. 1 I'm not a BT customer 2 I'm not your data source

  • jamboross
    Ross R MacLean (@jamboross) reported from East Kilbride, Scotland

    @virginmedia As a mark of respect,have you given us all the day off from the internet? Nothing working again!!! Getting pretty fed up with this, and yes I've checked your service online.

  • 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.

  • donmackeen
    don mackeen (@donmackeen) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @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"...

  • rjmfulton
    𝕽𝖚55𝖊𝖑𝖑 𝕱𝖚𝖑𝖙𝖔𝖓 (@rjmfulton) reported from Thornliebank, Scotland

    @virginmedia hi, just wondering if your support staff are trained on identifying and handling complaints properly? So far “to express my dissatisfaction” and “I would like to complain” haven’t worked.

  • GiggsyBlantyre
    Alan Lappin (@GiggsyBlantyre) reported from Hamilton, Scotland

    @mcneill1967 @virginmedia Not filling me with confidence! Phoned for update, boy said he could help, which he couldn’t. Asked to be put through to CRT, “I’ll do that”. “Hello, Retention Team”. Nope.

    @virginmedia I have had no broadband in G75 8 area of East Kilbride since 10.30pm on 3/11. We've had 4 rolling fix times which now says 14.15 today. tried your WhatsApp - told you are not taking anymore fault reports. Can you give honest fix time please?

  • nuttynanaannie

    @virginmedia Hello I have no tv service and also cannot get into my account to do service check. ML1 5HD area of Motherwell. Channels are all pixelated and sound affected.

  • LoraineRiddick2
    Loraine Riddick (@LoraineRiddick2) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia It says there are no problems in my area!what does it take to actually speak to someone, or get a technician out to check where fault is originating from!it’s absolutely shocking!Ive worked in customer service for a good many years, and never experienced such awful service!

  • weeshug72
    Hugh Moan 💙 (@weeshug72) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia why just you just call me under the guise of "offering me a discount on my services" then offer me a deal that means me paying for an extra service I don't currently use or want?

    So, after three long telephone calls, I'm back to square one. Now, I'm going to have to look for an alternative internet supplier. I wouldn't mind so much, but I've been a customer of @virginmedia for about 30 years! 😡

    @colonbarbarian @virginmedia @SkyUK I got a deal of them via email a few years back. Gigabyte sports movies there hole package for £60. Then my bill came in around 190. They tired to get out of it by saying I never accept it. About 6 hours on the phone and they finally said they where.
