@virginmedia your customer service is unbelievably pathetic. You think paying me £50 discount will resolve my contempt for your service, well it won’t. It took you 6 weeks before anyone even contacted me. I pay for 300 meg WiFi, I’m lucky if I get 20.

@virginmedia are there known issues with broadband in Loughton IG104QU? Had very patchy speeds recently . Paying for 350mb, typically getting 150mb+. Few days now of <30mb 😫

@virginmedia There's always engineering work. It resolves a drop in the bucket when there are reported outages every. Single. Day. Not being hyperbolic. We were told we need to call and document every issue. So we do. Every day the automated message says engineers are coming. It's a joke.

@virginmedia You obviously don’t read my tweets. I complained and it took 6 weeks to reply. Your company is really pathetic, and has no customer service.

@virginmedia Considering I’ve experienced multiple internet and TV issues over the last few weeks (whilst trying to work from home) it would be appreciated to see some compensation on next months bill

******* typical. Self isolating & my @virginmedia Internet & TV have gone down due to some issue in the area. Had just started working my way through season 8 of #SilentWitness.

@virginmedia you have less than 20 minutes it get the service back up and running or it’s contract cancel time #LineOfDuty

@virginmedia Looping this conversation back into noisy, bottomless support channels and forums isn't gonna cut it. I am fed up from wasting my time waiting on hold for 45-90 minutes only to be told "we've already told you engineers are coming, bye." This is infuriating.

@virginmedia Yeah, there are outages. Every single day. I can't remember a day WITHOUT an outage. The only reliable part of my wifi is that my colleagues expect it to be painful talking with me. It's embarrassing. Contract ends in October. You're gonna charge me £250 to leave. I've tried.

@virginmedia getting these emails saying “we are sorry you are leaving” but I didn’t cancel my service with you guys. Should I be worried about it?

@virginmedia There was a fault- already checked. Need to know why this keeps happening - paying £63 a month for a service that hardly ever works!

@virginmedia are you actually kidding?? Service down for #LineofDutyFinale (and not going to be fixed until the 5th May)

@virginmedia no broadband, WiFi or TV services in the SE7 area until 5pm today is completely unacceptable for people working from home. Engineering faults should not be happening during the day. £8 compensation is absolute peanuts. Very poor indeed.

@LDesesperes @virginmedia Customer service is terrible, no point in making a complaint as they say they'll contact you to discuss but never bother. As soon as an alternative option comes to our address we are leaving

@Sneak_666 @virginmedia I’ll jump on this. Left virgin due to the prices going up and not needing the whole service now. The retention team called me and offered me exactly what I needed (broadband only m200) for £22. Vodafone had sold me 50-60mbps for £19 so thought it was a great deal.

@virginmedia Sorry guys but it fixed itself for about 2 weeks, and now it sucks again. We need a review on our set up, somethings got to improve.

(@Pete_Js) reported
@DonnaBrannan12 @Sneak_666 @virginmedia Sadly not the case. They give you a contract that says we are giving you a service that should be X amount (double the price) but we are really nicely going to discount it by 50% for x amount of months after that it goes to that supposed normal amount

I said it before but this time I mean it. I'm gonna be leaving #virginmedia. Been with them for 10 years and they've never once valued me as a customer nor have they sent anyone to fix my Internet, but they're happy to charge me £80 for service they don't give @virginmedia bye

(@strongbow1932) reported
@Sneak_666 @virginmedia I might speak to these customer relations people. £84 a month is a pure rip off for repeats on nearly every channel. I’m out of contract and if I can’t find a reasonable deal I’m off. Broadband is crap at the best of times too.

@virginmedia You could offer it to me free and I would say no, it is crap, and when I phone to cancel I'm looking forward to the grovelling and we have a new deal, your equipment is outdated by 20 years fibre to the cabinet the coaxial to the house very 90s, upgrade to fttp or you are doomed.

@Del_101 Try a different device on that same port/cable. If issue stays, it’s not your virgin media box.
