DaveChristieImaging (@davechristie15) reported from Shiremoor, England
@louisewil86 @yanic1965 @virginmedia I'm supposed to be on 50mbs...nowhere near! What they dont tell you (any bband supplier) but my engineer does....is that the fibre cable only goes to your local substation box...then thru copper cable to your house ...so slowed down automatically!
-
Paul G (@PaulGmedia) reported from Whitley Bay, England
@virginmedia My contract has expired and I’m wondering what options are available if I decide to sign a new one. Feels like it’d be easier to leave, tbh. I’m also moving house so wanted to discuss moving service to new address. I appreciate you’re busy, but it’s an absolute nightmare.

@virginmedia We have two VM boxes for collection as we have already left your network. Can you please arrange for someone to disconnect and collect them? Thanks in anticipation.

John McGann (@McGannJohn) reported from Whitley Bay, England
@virginmedia After 2 hours on hold I got through to a nice guy in the call centre, he couldn't work out the issue so I've got no Internet for 2 days until an engineer comes out. Love paying for services I don't get...

@virginmedia Will you please sort your **** out, 7 times my internet has dropped for 30-60 seconds it’s so frustrating pay for the best broadband available and have to put up with this 😡

Les Pigg (@piggypics) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England
@virginmedia No but I have now dealt with it via your customer services and asked to remove my mam from virgin sales list. Thanks
-
DaveChristieImaging (@davechristie15) reported from Shiremoor, England
@louisewil86 @yanic1965 @virginmedia Refuse to pay for a month...any contract by law gives you 14 days to cancel!
-
John McGann (@McGannJohn) reported from Whitley Bay, England
@virginmedia great customer service tactics, tell people theres going to be a long hold time, when they get to an hour on hold just hang up on them because they clearly don't need Internet any time soon...
-
alistair oates (@alistairoates) reported from Whitley Bay, England
@virginmedia Please if you’re providing a terrible internet service don’t use the phase, ‘Oops. Our bad’
-
Bev Middleton (@bev_middleton) reported from Sunderland, England
@virginmedia furious that I have been double charged for a bill, then I try to message support and its been over 1 week and nothing done, single parent who already paid the bill is not happy

John Lacey (@schizoid007) reported from Gateshead, England
Can't wait till my contract is up with @virginmedia to move back to @skytv probably the worst TV experience I've ever had. Horrendous hardware, UI and Operating System
-
John McGann (@McGannJohn) reported from Whitley Bay, England
@virginmedia amazing concept of telling people who have no Internet at home to log onto an Internet chat room to get help with getting their Internet back, do I get a refund for the data used to tether my laptop just to get access to customer service?
-
peter atkinson #FBPE (@peterat50) reported from Whitley Bay, England
Anyone thinking of dealing with @virginmedia don’t their customer service is woeful . Another hour wasted trying to contact them 😡

-
Steph. (@stephwales_) reported from Gateshead, England
@virginmedia are you going to respond or do you just pick and chose? This is disgusting service. Over 70 quid a month for half a service!!!!!! Cancellation in Feb when my contract Is due at this rate.
-
Steph. (@stephwales_) reported from Gateshead, England
@virginmedia, you've text me a link after your phone robot tested my equipment, the link doesn't work. This has been on going for 3 to 4 weeks. I've been paying for a service I've not been receiving. I need to speak to an actual person!!!!

Mohammed J Kharal (@MKharal786) reported
@richardbranson Dear Mr Branson, I would like to bring to your attention, how terrible the service has been from one of your companies, Virgin Media. It has been over a year since I’ve been experiencing issues but NOT a single person in your organisation has taken responsibility.
-
Paul Whitelegg (@PaulWhitelegg) reported
@virginmedia John, thank you for the reply. Currently things are working. However, that misses the point. It’s the inherently unreliable service that is objectionable. This comes in different guises: drop outs; reduced speeds; variable WiFi signal strength. And its been like this since Jan.
-
Michael John Kemp. GSM. esq. (@emkaybeesoon) reported
@virginmedia @boola81 Internet has been down in LU6 3AG since 15:00 yesterday with nothing on your status page, pings to google are intermittent and lots of time outs.
-
Crystal78 (@Crystal27674320) reported
@virginmedia can someone please DM me regarding an Alf account and cheque refund. Poor customer service
-
Saurabh Rana (@Mr_Saurabh_Rana) reported
@virginmedia Day 2 - without broadband. Spent 2-3 hours on Customer care HelpDesk but no luck. #virginmedia #virginmediadown #stillwaiting
-
Andrew Molodoi (@idrewdoughnut) reported
@virginmedia John, it’s been 11 months. Please stop with the absurd excuses. Having 0.3 Mbps every single day for 11 months is not acceptable. The estimate for this fix is always 2 weeks, but has been postponed 25 times!!
-
Sadé (@iamsade_x) reported
@virginmedia I am a vulnerable customer but I received an increase in my contract even though I was told I would be exempt? Could this be seen to please 😢
-
Fede Rilli 🇮🇹🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@federilli) reported
@virginmedia Sadly getting worse. Even lost the phone signal. Wifi terrible. It’s such a disaster
-
Paula Akpan (@paulaakpan) reported
One day, I really will write a report into how service-providing corporations like @virginmedia lock people into contracts, attempting to squeeze money out of people at every turn, and the devastating impact it can have, especially if it affects your credit score etc

Ellie Rocks (@EllieSRocks) reported
@virginmedia No this is the problem. We never received any emails and called to query why
