    @virginmedia Hi, we are having issues connecting to the wifi throughout the house. The room the hub is in is good but the rest of the house is very poor, we have our children complaining that their games consoles won’t connect or buffering and glitching and it’s costing us a fortune.

    @virginmedia Everyone is very apologetic but that doesn’t help give a vulnerable old lady the peace of mind that her son is available at the other end of the phone, should something happen.

    @virginmedia it took my nearly 3 hours to cancel my contract after 7 years with you. Your customer service representative made up a fake outstanding bill from 2016 as an excuse not to help me. All sorted now but never going to be a #virginmediacustomer again.

    @virginmedia Still no return bag 3 weeks after you said you were sending it. Can’t speak to you because I’m not a customer. Sort it out please ASAP.

    @virginmedia There isn’t an outage. I have been told it may be a line fault but the hub was fine yesterday afternoon

  • jeibbotson

    @virginmedia please sort out your appalling broadband service in the derby area. More time down than up @Ofcom you ought to mandate refunds

  • neilmjohnson72
    Neil Johnson (@neilmjohnson72) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England

    @virginmedia You need to sort your customer service out, it is absolutely disgraceful. Your technical team are ignorant and hang calls up without situation. You are getting dumped!

    @drummerwhitey @virginmedia Not sure if you’ve done this Steve but when I had issues and no joy I slated them on here every 10 minutes, they finally pulled me into a private chat room and I got things sorted

  • SmileyJMH
    Joanna Hayes (@SmileyJMH) reported from Loughborough, England

    @virginmedia just had call from 'Harry' in London, your technical department. Apparently I'm having issues with broadband speed... His employer ID was 194, apparently? He was shouty, in very loud place, couldn't tell me who I was. Please look into number 01323897224. Infuriating.

  • HistoricCatLady
    Rebecca Ward (@HistoricCatLady) reported from Mackworth, England

    @virginmedia what’s going on? I can’t even get onto your website for the service tracker using my phone data! I could really use an update here so that I can actually work!

  • GodberKen
    Ken Godber (@GodberKen) reported from Annesley, England

    @virginmedia hi - I have a sim only mobile contract that's not been used for at least 18mths. I've stopped the DD as I'm unable to simply cancel via website and the number quoted to call doesn't work. I've got nowhere to go with this problem now.

    @Carolestfc1 @virginmedia Bang on Carole, unacceptably poor from @virginmedia. Ditch the standard robotic replies, either sort it out for Carole pronto or sort out a refund AND a goodwill financial gesture. 👊🏼

    In the meantime the @virginmedia ‘supervisor’ whom I waited 90 mins to talk to on Tues night, & who promised to escalate our outage to engineering so I could have SOME INFORMATION, has of course not been in touch Just like the other supervisor who made the same promise last week

  • APTSArchive
    APTS Archive (@APTSArchive) reported

    @virginmedia we notified you in early July that we would be moving on 31st. You deemed our new address as unserviceable & therefore there would be no early termination fee & to return the kit to you. I have made in excess of 10 phone calls with your moving home team - amount to several hours getting contradictory information every time I've phoned, depending on who I spoke with. On Wednesday you took £1,070 from our bank account, causing us to become overdrawn, despite assurances from your moving home team that there was an extension on our account in order to give us time to return the kit, & no early termination fee would be charged. The kit was returned to you on Wednesday morning. Upon phoning yesterday (yet again), I was dealt with someone that might as well have been a robot, he's inability to listen & constant repeating set phrases over & over again was of little help & particularly annoying. You have made the issue of moving home particularly difficult and stressful, which for a company of your size I find inexcusable. I emailed your moving home team on Tuesday & yesterday yet have still not received a reply, despite being told in a phone call my email would be dealt with as a matter or urgency! I'm resorting to public exposure in the vain hope there will be some action & you will expedite this matter.
