@virginmedia If this keeps on where can I complain next? @tsascheme @OmbudServices as I can #Virginmedia don't seem to take the problems they create and being a service provider seriously

@virginmedia I’ve been having issues with my wifi since I got it last year and now we’ve been talked into getting a “pod” for an extra £5 p/m only for the guy to say it still doesn’t guarantee wifi speed. Whatever you lot are smoking please quit.

Tim Evans (@TimEvans1503) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia yet again last night and now this morning your service is t working despite the large amount we pay you every month. The two of us work from home - you are costing us business. If you can’t provide a decent consistency service then admit it and we’ll change provider

Dan (@Dannuccino) reported from West Bromwich, England
I've never had a more frustrating ISP than @virginmedia support lines provide no help and we're stuck in a loop of disconnects whilst being told nothing is wrong.
-
Adwoa Agyeiwaa (@tweet_estaa) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia That’s not what my issue is. WHY IS THE INTERNET SO INCONSISTENT??? - and threatening to charge a £240 to cancel the contract for wifi that does work is very poor customer service!
-
Steve Re-cycle (@poole_ste) reported from Wolverhampton, England
Why did I swop to #virgin? 2 months ago and nothing but problems @virginmedia it took over 20 days to get my tel no changed then you change again why did you not tell me! How do you expect anyone to contact me V useless biggest mistake and very £xpensive one with poor WiFi too.
-
Adwoa Agyeiwaa (@tweet_estaa) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia If these pods don’t work, I’ll back with more reasons for why people should avoid using your rubbish service. It’s pathetic really that I have to come on Twitter to do this for you to be bothered just because of reputation. Disgraceful
-
Tim Evans (@TimEvans1503) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia Would it be ok to not just send me the same message each time but tell me how you’re going to make sure the service what it should be? Both my wife and my work is utterly dependent on good internet access

Turns out turning your @virginmedia Hub 4 off and on again resets the 2.4GHz network name.

Tim Evans (@TimEvans1503) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia big thanks for your rubbish service that meant I dropped out of giving a lecture part way through - we pay a small fortune and expect decent service
-
Steve Re-cycle (@poole_ste) reported from Wolverhampton, England
@virginmedia Thank you for this but I do seem to have done everything mentioned in your document through ringing 150 so far no senior manager has got back to me! Me thinks maybe something is not working but will try again 🤔 oh yes even been through #resolution

Steve Re-cycle (@poole_ste) reported from Wolverhampton, England
@virginmedia I also asked to be put through to complaints as I have done before and then the phone goes dead. I have been so reliant on my old number sick older members of family in times of great stress #help

Steve Re-cycle (@poole_ste) reported from Wolverhampton, England
@virginmedia Good afternoon #Virginmedia my problems still go on I have had an engineer visit problem not a fault but from when I first started with you. Contacted customer service who promised a manager would contact me. Nothing since except one scam call. #nothappy

Adwoa Agyeiwaa (@tweet_estaa) reported from Birmingham, England

declan horth (@HorthDeclan) reported
@virginmedia I'm sorry, I know you're trying to help. But I keep getting told different info and not one person has helped me. I recieved no activation email, I have called already and get hung up on. I just want to use what I pay for
-
Alex Goswell (@alxgos) reported
@virginmedia you should be ashamed of your ridiculous blocking outgoing calls policy. My 86 year old dad is alone at home and unable to call anyone while we wait for you to post a security word. Very poor #CustomerService #poorcustomerservice
-
Richard Jewell (@R3dtopJewell) reported
@virginmedia I’m hoping that an engineer maybe able to come out and look at the issue for me. Are you able to assist facilitating that at all?
-
Abhishek Pandey (@abhi_0702) reported
@jerryaldrichiii I'm pretty sure @virginmedia does the same (or at least did in 2021) where they ask for the first few characters of your password to verify your identity if you call a service helpline.
-
Mat Ong* (@mattang) reported
the grass is not always greener. day 4 of @bt_uk internet and it’s died. trouble shooter when you login is a loop of the same question over and over. terrible experience so far. @virginmedia all is forgiven ps the box on the wall is literally screaming like an injured animal.
-
stephen anderson (@stephen36064332) reported
@virginmedia No I’m not calling again. I’ve spent over 12 hours on the phone to you trying to sort this out. Your customer service needs to do what they say and call back.
-
Mazz Carsberg (@CarsbergMazz) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England
@virginmedia I've got a bone to pick with you. We got a new box a while ago, and it's randomly wiping the recorded shows. Not one at a time, all at once. We've been in touch with customer services loads of times, but they all just took us through the same pointless (1)

Cerys Morgan (@cerysamorgan1) reported
I’m trying to cancel my virgin internet due to terrible connection. The customer service person trying to convince me to stay, had such bad connection they had to rearrange the call…oh the irony! #virginmedia

.@SkyUK, why has ur broadband service been so slow for the past couple of days? .@virginmedia, i really shouldn't have left you.😭😭😭
-
Mrsadams797 (@mrsadams797) reported
@virginmedia the broadband problems we have been experiencing in the last few days are ridiculous. The constant drop outs are having an effect on home working for our family and having to reconnect the sky box all the time is a headache. When will this be fixed?
