    @virginmedia This issue was chased on the 30th Nov 2020 (had to wait 45 days for the cheque) & then once again on 15th Jan 21, as cheque not received. Advised it would be posted in 14 days & still nothing.

  • Garyonline1 Gary dorrington (@Garyonline1) reported from Chipping Ongar, England

    @virginmedia Also it would be nice for someone to point out what is the problem we are currently having.

  • OllieToogood Ollie Toogood (@OllieToogood) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia I’m trying to contact you but can never get through by telephone, what earth am I meant to do? Your customer service has gone to pot

  • samorrisuk Sam Morris (@samorrisuk) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia you are an absolute disgrace! My internet has been awful all week, I work in the NHS and need a stable connection for working from home which I have been unable to get this week! And your chat support person just went on their “break” mid conversation! Sort it out!!

  • Transome77 Terry Ransome (@Transome77) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia really disappointed now. Unable to watch on any devices! Can’t get through on phone, no help on line! Waited again! To change my devices still told I have reached maximum devices. Disgraceful service, you keep convincing me to stay but patience is very low now! HELP!

  • matthewcarter7 Matthew Carter (@matthewcarter7) reported from London, England

    @TobySutton17 @SophieEB @virginmedia They are terrible! Loads of people see the high speed and go for it (like I did!) but the reality is very different. Avoid. 👍🏻

  • Grahamthecabbie Graham Long (@Grahamthecabbie) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia no wifi, no television, no landline. Again! Your service is dreadful! Won’t be using you again when the contract is finished!

  • MisterBurak Mr B (@MisterBurak) reported from Hackney, England

    @sezelerol @virginmedia The worst customer services! I’ve had my fair share never again!

  • tianbosi 添柏司 TDP (@tianbosi) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia That number had wait times of over an hour. You still haven't compensated me for my 3 day outage last year. Why should I pay 50pct more?

  • CouchPotatoUK West Ham Wesley ⚒️ #GSBOUT (@CouchPotatoUK) reported from Stratford, England

    @virginmedia your website is down in the UK. Cannot log into accounts or use SkySports app

  • Garyonline1 Gary dorrington (@Garyonline1) reported from Chipping Ongar, England

    @virginmedia We have had no coverage over the weekend in december we were without service for 10 days this seems to be an ongoing problem which you are failing to cure

  • sureshhalai Suresh halai (@sureshhalai) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia wii fi gone again, not good when you trying to watch wandavison on Disney plus, and the tech dept in India are closed, pay £50 per month for this ? Think am being ripped off, HELP

  • tonywiseman1976 Tony Wiseman (@tonywiseman1976) reported from Ilford, England

    @TheEmmaGoodwin @virginmedia I left this company after lockdown 1.0. It’s a pain getting a new service provider BUT it’s worth it in the end.

  • tonywiseman1976 Tony Wiseman (@tonywiseman1976) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia Apologies do not resolve the problem.

  • rayallsop1983 RayWilliamAllsop #RaRa (@rayallsop1983) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @JackieMKM @KimberleyJayne4 @virginmedia That’s a lot of money for a poor service mate, I pay £50 a month that’s for tv phone and internet, but well worth for the quality of service you get. Your welcome 👍🏻.

  • leeleyland3 lee leyland (@leeleyland3) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia you have without doubt the the worst internet service going, your customer service is shocking !!! I spent over 12 hours on the customer service chat going around and around only to have them terminate the conversation. Next day "how can we help"

  • jessie_tovey Jessica Tovey (@jessie_tovey) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia I expect a response immediately. This issue has been going on for a fortnight and your customer service is beyond parody now. WHERE IS THE ENGINEER? WHY AM I STILL WITHOUT WORKABLE INTERNET? Hasn’t stopped you sending me my first bill has it...

  • Garyonline1 Gary dorrington (@Garyonline1) reported from Chipping Ongar, England

    @virginmedia No apparently there are ongoing issues in my area Cm5 9az which you are hoping to resolved by the 5th but not definite i just wish you would inform customers when these faults occur rather than us chasing you up

  • Rashidfreed Rashid Iqbal ☔ (@Rashidfreed) reported from Kensington, England

    @Rhodri_H_Davies @virginmedia It's #virginontheridiculous that @virginmedia have had the same lame excuse for their 'temporary', nightmarish wait times on their 'helpline' for 12 months now Who else gets the dropped calls as soon as you mention a bad broadband connection? Were trying to #homeschool here!
