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

    @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.

    @virginmedia After spending hours trying to get through to you yesterday on the phone I raised a complaint about that. Solution this morning? ‘Call us’ is this a joke? Are u so think? #dreadfulservice

  • Lshire_Laird
    The Lanarkshire Laird (@Lshire_Laird) reported from Motherwell, Scotland

    Hi @virginmedia after 2 weeks of repeated calls and being promised a new remote ordered each time when it wasn’t, I finally reached a customer service agent called Maciej Betnat who took the time yesterday and today to help. He is great & I want to see that this is recognised. 👏🏻

  • NorthernSaint72
    Paul Wilcox (@NorthernSaint72) reported from Barrhead, Scotland

    @virginmedia your broadband service is woeful. Every single day for months it goes off. Stuck in a contract that does not provide the service we pay for. All we are told there is an issue in our area. You won’t have any customers here soon.

  • AlexxAdair
    Alexander Adair 🌙 (@AlexxAdair) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia Literally calling to cancel my package and I can’t get through

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

    @virginmedia That's useless. The service comes and goes, so you won't compensate me. And if have to deal with a "service" that continually cuts out

  • DRoss215
    David (@DRoss215) reported from Paisley, Scotland

    @virginmedia I was promised a reconnected service by yesterday. Didn't happen no form requested 😡😡

  • scottstafford87
    Scott stafford (@scottstafford87) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia It’s connected to the network

  • AlexxAdair
    Alexander Adair 🌙 (@AlexxAdair) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia It wont even let me run a speed test. When I go to status check it says no problem found but when I call I says intermittent issues??

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

    @virginmedia I had a quick start broadband kit sent out. I fitted it all. No broadband, despite 6 calls to your “help” line. Been told a different fault each call. Can this be looked into?

  • seawxy
    rach ✨ (@seawxy) reported from Motherwell, Scotland

    @virginmedia no, i’ve not received a resolution. someone contacted me regarding the complaint, then when i responded, they have just ignored it. the complaint is regarding incorrect billing and poor customer service.

  • 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.

  • lordofanywhere
    dios mio la creatura 🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦 (@lordofanywhere) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia is a complete and utter joke in Glasgow. Apparently there is a fault and won’t be resolved until January 5th. On Twitter, they redirect us to the service status page, which is “experience some problems” and we can’t check service status. Compensation is in order.

  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia He came at 0730 Saturday. All fixed by 0755. The cable outside was cut. No signal getting in. All fixed so easily by the engineer

    @virginmedia Folks, wifi down in Glasgow

  • 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.

    Dan Worley (@worleyyy) reported

    @virginmedia You clearly don't take it seriously enough. I've complained multiple times over the last year and because I haven't made a complaint twice in one month you won't do anything and force me to pay a £400 fee to exit my contract. Utter horrendous service!! Worst internet company ever

  • nellynoo72
    Neil (@nellynoo72) reported

    @virginmedia can anyone tell me what the status is of the broadband outrage in CV4 please? All day it's just said there's an issue that your engineers are trying to fix. An ETA would be great

  • hellosunshine52
    Elle 🌸🗽 (@hellosunshine52) reported

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK I’m so sorry for your loss. I can’t imagine how hard all this is. For your info with regard to your issue - virgin media have just been fined £28m for preventing people ending their contracts. Perhaps talks to the culture internally that you are describing

  • Mayur_pdf
    Mayur Shikotra (@Mayur_pdf) reported

    Shocking bad service by @virginmedia. Engineer was meant to come to see if our property could get broadband. Apparently he “turned up” and decided we cannot have broadband. All while I’ve been waiting here for him. Checked CCTV and no sign of this engineer.

  • MoonwalkOnGold
    Gold (@MoonwalkOnGold) reported

    But then again I saw a news report about @virginmedia customers this past week so I'm not surprised @VirginAtlantic is just as bad. Terrible!

  • worleyyy
    Dan Worley (@worleyyy) reported

    @Ofcom @virginmedia I am glad to see you get your come uppence. Im still trying to leave you after a full year of terrible low speeds. Trying to force me into paying a leaving fee of £400 even though you do not provide a proper service. @Ofcom what do I do??? I'm fed up of poor service.

  • 1123funko
    Dunc in a bothy (@1123funko) reported

    @virginmedia I did all that before I tried on here. Not my first experience with this stuff. The issue was I had a ppv bought that I didn’t get to watch so the point is moot now tbh.

  • Lifeline04India
    MR COOL (@Lifeline04India) reported

    @virginmedia Yes from. 5 days. Can we get compensated for such issues? Please fix. Due to this issue I have moved to virgin and it’s the same here

  • JuliaCoombcj
    Julia Coombs (@JuliaCoombcj) reported

    @Stsantek @virginmedia Unfortunately this is standard procedure. Tried to cancel Sky TV just before contract ended as price had risen,watched the date like a hawk. They advised me to take out the 2 years again and cancel on the date. Hope you never notice. Why isn’t this illegal?
