    Tony P (@WorTony) reported from Selston, England

    Hey @virginmedia I’m really loving the customer service - called 2 weeks ago to report a broken remote - I was told a new one would be on the way. I’m still waiting. I called yesterday and was told the email address I was giving and have had registered for 15-20 years was wrong

  • TheG0000ner

    Is there something wrong with @virginmedia at the moment. Got a very very crap speed of less than 1mbs #virginmedia #virginmobile in the S40 area. Can't log into my account either? 🤬 This is happening far too often for £69 a month!!!

    @Louise4Mh @virginmedia You wait till they try and rip you off by allowing reverse unsolicited text messages to your devices and charge you a £1 a message for a message never sent or received. Criminal.

    @virginmedia why do I keep having to tweet you regarding you appalling broadband. Again your service is down in DE3 area and I may have to go into work rather than work from home like I should be

    Realoldguy/newpc (@NewpcOldguy) reported from Hucknall under Huthwaite, England

    @railperf @LNER @VirginTrains LNER, better trains, Inc HST! Better media/website, & far superior staff service. I would rather go ECML & across to Glasgow than suffer a Virgin experience.

    @virginmedia your broadband is awful. Never works. Tried to call customer support, there is no number. Tried to check on internet for some help and it's very confusing. Very unhappy customer.

    Bhavna 🙋🏽‍♀️ (@MissBeBop) reported from Eastwood, England

    When @virginmedia wifi is working it’s bloody amazing, when you need to raise an issue with them it’s the most frustrating experience ever. Today I have had 2 people hang up mid call, 3 bots, 2 people on chat and still in the same place. No ******* wifi!!!!

    @virginmedia WiFi down, AGAIN, Ethernet devices working fine, just wireless that isn't working. Happening more and more recently and it's getting absolutely infuriating.

  • Kathryn_Cook1
    Kathryn Cook (@Kathryn_Cook1) reported from Derbyshire, England

    @virginmedia Rubbish. I live in a cottage with minimal phone signal and 4g so rely on wifi. It’s down regularly and impacts my work as well as TV etc. Who would you recommend I move to?

    .@virginmedia call wait time for sales is 0.9 seconds. Transferred to 'Customer Support', and have been waiting for 34 minutes so far. #priorities 🤔

    @virginmedia Hi again Virgin, why does it look like my engineer appt has been cancelled? And good to know that there is a wider issue in the area.

  • GingaGill
    GingaGill💙👩🏻‍🎓😷  (@GingaGill) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia Yep…experienced issues with Santander & Portsmouth water co. The latter wanted to speak to account holder to confirm closure ! The former insisted my father had made changes to his online banking; a bit tricky really as he was dead& they didn’t have any internet. Total nightmare

  • df1888
    d_f1888 (@df1888) reported

    @LutzSchueler @virginmedia We’ve been waiting since January for VM fibre to be installed and the customer service has been shocking. I’ve raised 3 complaints emailed your office and still have not had the service installed. Next stop the communications ombudsman !!

  • wadannatt
    Wayne Dannatt (@wadannatt) reported

    @virginmedia instead of sending a text message stating that services will be fixed soon, how about giving a timeframe? My Internet has been out all day, you've just increased prices yet again, this is the second time in six months and last time it took you two days to fix it!

  • pauljonesAIR
    Paul Jones - Performer/Shooter, Web sites🔞 (@pauljonesAIR) reported

    @virginmedia @PeteUK7 HOW LONG does it take it to update your accounts? Asking on behalf of all auditors, everywhere. Also, template posts like this do not assuage and make you look uncaring to an even wider audience. How HUMANS work :- 1) This sort of post should trigger a HUMAN with AUTHORITY to handle. It's not "a few days", it's a few months. I'm pissed because in my case I'm still dealing with an idiot org (not Virgin) after THREE YEARS. 2) They apologise. In Public, without reservation or excuse. 3) Privately, they apologise and make a concrete gesture. In this perhaps, "let us know if they supported any charity, we'll send you a cheque for £1000 made out to it". Privately because otherwise grandstanding. £1000 because you want to show you're sorry, and that this sort of thing is so rare that you can be generous. £100 just looks a cost of doing incompetent business. CHEQUES : still the only way to send money via a third party where you need the third party to know it got paid. And yes, they still exist. Even if Branson has to get it from his branch in person.

    So been without WiFi and tv because of @virginmedia outage in barnsley since early morning supposed to be fixed by 5pm tonight and 4g is useless

  • BrianNicholso16
    Brian N (@BrianNicholso16) reported

    @markenello @virginmedia Been through the frustrations too Mark. Almost made my blood boil, cut off several times while on long calls and took ages to manage to leave. Had issues afterwards too. Moved to EE and really happy and a UK call centre with very helpful folk. Fifty pounds a month less too!

  • milesc2003
    Miles (@milesc2003) reported

    @virginmedia due to last nights thunderstorm in WS14 the fiber broadband had been down since 3am. Spoke to a human at 8:30am who said they are waiting for an update. No internet for 9 hours for many people who WFH. Any updates would be appreciated

    @j2l_971 Hi it's us from Virgin Media O2. We're sorry about ongoing issues that you're having with your account. If you like we can look into this however we would need to do this in a private chat because we would need more info.
