Benjamin Hartrey (@benj8min) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia With respect, your customer service advisors are useless. As is the technology for contacting them. As per my initial message. Last time I went through this I was booked a chat appointment by your twitter team with someone who specifically handled the complaint.

Right Direction (@BackOnTrack__) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia Rather than patronise me just offer a good service snd get it sorted tomorrow.
-
Trudi Foster (@MsWhippet1) reported from St. Julians, Wales@virginmedia I was told to wait in this morning between 8am - 12pm for an engineer to fix my broadband. It's now 2pm and no sign of an engineer. I was told I'd be charged £25 if I missed the appointment. I think I should charge you for having to hang around for 6 hours waiting.
-
MaartenX. (@MaartenSleeckx) reported from Victoria, Wales@virginmedia Clearly not as the issue keeps coming back after multiple engineer fixes outside AND in my home. You're lying through your teeth and leaving me in the dark literally. Stop hiding behind "standard business" replies, be human and help me.

Monkenstien. (@3_monk) reported from Beechwood, Wales@virginmedia I get your bills, that is how I realised as a loyal customer I am paying £40 plus a month for Internet access only. Fortunately for me and not for you BT Openreach have been installing fibre to home allowing me greater negotiating power as tou have no respect for loyalty.

-
Accessible Waterways Association CIC (@accesswaterways) reported@NicolaG01 @virginmedia My experience of Virgin has always been they suffer from technical issues. Many is the time in the past I have called them, they have told me to do things at my end which I know will achieve nothing... and then it magically works!
-
Mike B (@BonesE78) reportedIm sick to death of @virginmedia and their **** service!!! How do I cancel?
-
Rob Sharman ⭐️⭐️ (@sharman_robert) reported@virginmedia appalling customer service, you either speak to a bot or a moron on a messaging service…they still haven’t fixed any of my issues I’m done at this point
-
Tre (@Liafreytre) reported@AndrewW12290183 @virginmedia They never send them. Still have old crap of theirs from years ago.
-
Amy Heppingstall (@AmyHeppi) reported@virginmedia That’s all you ever do look into it never any action it improves for a few days then terrible it used to be such great service where has that service gone??
-
Teddy (@ChokeLever) reported@giffgaff Tbh I didn’t chose @virginmedia because their reviews are poor. I should’ve known better as it was still their engineer who failed to show up. #Frustrating, but for #giffgaff not to have any means of rectifying the issue is unacceptable. I am being penalised as a result.
-
Amy Heppingstall (@AmyHeppi) reported@virginmedia absolutely terrible wifi this afternoon this is not the service I’m paying for !!! Really fed up of this
-
SJL (@lambypies) reported@tom550993 Haggled Virginmedia down to £50 a month for decent broadband, one set top box for live TV and the middle TV package. Now TV and Netflix still trials less than £75. If I could get a decent reception with an aerial I would ditch the box too.
-
Jambo (@The_real_Jambo_) reported@virginmedia @officialprendie I live in this area and lost connection about 20mims ago. Router is flashing red. I work from home, how long will this take to fix?
