    @virginmedia help, your internet has cut out again #unreliable #badservice

  • dietmarlen Dietmar Lenden #FBPE (@dietmarlen) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Well surprise surprise. The WiFi is down again. 6 weeks in a row. Call Centre hing yo when passing my call to a manager. Poor service. This is now unacceptable. How do I complain (other than @Ofcom) about this poor service. Why is the service so awful now.

  • RogerCole10135 roger cole (@RogerCole10135) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia reply to your tweet “NO” my wife pays a lot of money to your company for a poor service.

  • paulparker81 Paul Parker (@paulparker81) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia experiencing the worst customer service I have ever had. Been a customer for 10+ years but not after today @SkyUK will be gaining another customer instead

  • NickLovell_ Nick Lovell (@NickLovell_) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia new broadband install today, was working fine now nothing. Your website won’t allow me to set up my account to check local service. Im an ex virgin engineer so know what to do and check. No Down or upstream signals. Same for neighbours. Get this sorted immediately

  • TomMcKCharity Tom McKenzie (@TomMcKCharity) reported from London, England

    Hey @virginmedia, internet down for awhile now and your service checker isn't working. Not the first time recently.

  • tmacbond Tmak (@tmacbond) reported from Wickford, England

    This is unacceptable @virginmedia your services especially the customer services despite endless promises still not done #ShabbyServices

  • FionaGraham Fiona Graham (@FionaGraham) reported from London, England

    @ProfWoodward @virginmedia I can believe it. That’s outrageous - and clearly they don’t need the business. Which given the expense of their broadband + TV package seems about right. If it’s any consolation - it’s down a lot, and the speed we get is constantly being throttled, even before covid.

  • tmacbond Tmak (@tmacbond) reported from Wickford, England

    @Ofcom @virginmedia How on earth can you on a simple change over of service that your representative said or was an easy job & you still 5months later still being billed & endless promises not kept now it’s calls eating into family time & not end in sight!! Help

  • tmacbond Tmak (@tmacbond) reported from Wickford, England

    @1KolaAdebisi @virginmedia @Ofcom @Ofcom Your intervention is really needed here because @virginmedia has really failed in their dispensing of service #ShabbyServices

  • NickLovell_ Nick Lovell (@NickLovell_) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia so my services, since being installed have not worked more than they have worked. As first impressions go this is very bad. If this isn’t fixed by this afternoon I will cancel my services as im still within 14 days cooling period.

  • Onlyanopinion1 Ignorance_is_Bliss (@Onlyanopinion1) reported

    @virginmedia any idea when our internet will be back on in PE4 please we are going into day 2 now and it is causing all sorts of issues and you have stopped advising of a completion time. Thanks

  • SarahDMGreen ☮ Sarah Green ☮ (@SarahDMGreen) reported

    @virginmedia Thank you for the new phone. Unfortunately there is still an issue with connecting. My mum @PamelaMaryGreen will need to contact you again

  • elnazr7 Elnaz Rasoolzadeh (@elnazr7) reported

    @virginmedia Yes when I called your customer service there was an automated message saying there was. Really bad timing and also important to be able to speak to someone during these times!

  • kevinnorris7 kevin norris (@kevinnorris7) reported

    @virginmedia you have cancelled my install, third time since 22/10. Each time you offer £25 off my bill. So far you owe me £75. But I won't get it because it's not an active account and I will cancel before you solve the problem.

  • TTfanofthe90s Liinzi BOO 👻👻👻👻 (@TTfanofthe90s) reported

    @virginmedia The service your providing at the minute is shocking!! 4 days I've been trying to talk to someone, holding for 55 mins most times, to then be hung up on!!!!

  • HarrySaxtonMar1 Harry Saxton-Martin (@HarrySaxtonMar1) reported

    @virginmedia my wifi isn’t capable of handling a game of fifa and a firestick to be in use at the same time, could you guys explain why exactly this isn’t possible as you’re meant to be providing a service that can handle multiple devices?

  • TTfanofthe90s Liinzi BOO 👻👻👻👻 (@TTfanofthe90s) reported

    @virginmedia Omg how bad is it that you ring nearly every hour every day hold for 57mins then they pick up and hang up, I'm FUMING!!!

  • homer3105 Daren Timbrell (@homer3105) reported

    @virginmedia customer service Is totally useless as I have been on hold for over and hour and then got cut off, there help bot is about as much use as a chocolate teapot as well. Think it’s time to leave and find a different supplier,

  • onamch DrSchizo (@onamch) reported

    @virginmedia Well they clearly can't that's the problem. I'll force the issue to be past to a UK agent I guess, seems that's the only way

  • itssammykins Sammy Glover (@itssammykins) reported

    @virginmedia hi, checked service status and apparently no issues found but internet been going on and off since Thursday for a few people, is there an issue in the WA11 area?
