@virginmedia Okay I'll keep paying you for something that doesn't work and wait for another customer to advise how to resolve the issue... or if I'm really lucky a moderator might get in touch... 👌 Is there an SLA?

@virginmedia intermittent connection fault on broadband for almost 36 hours...its farcical and so annoying not being able to use a service for which I'm paying. How long does it take engineers to fix this fault? Was told the fix would occur this morning but alas! #Help

Contract with @virginmedia is expiring up £20 p/m. Great Black Friday deal for new customers. Won’t match it. Told if sign up in my name as new customer (currently in partner’s name) they’ll offer it-great but still want £35 one off fee for equipment -we have equipment here 🙈

Let's hope @virginmedia broadband service is better than their pavement relaying skills. Disruption and mess all over Caerphilly.

@virginmedia I’ve had a text to say our issue will be resolved by 1/12 but this seems to be a continuous issue and I have a child trying to do schoolwork from home due to Covid so it’s vital our BB is working and for our heating too which works via wifi.

@virginmedia What’s your customer service telephone number? Can’t find one anywhere. Don’t want a “Message Bot” - I want a human to sort out our problem. Wife’s a GP trying to provide patient care from home -can’t because of broadband problems. Don’t tell me to reset the router!!

@virginmedia Last pt... a helpful member of the community just advised me to text a random mobile number for help. May be innocent but I have no idea if that is a @virginmedia number ... feels a little suspicious / could be a scam? Hope the moderators track these types of things too.

@virginmedia do you have an escalation or complaint process that doesn't involve transfering me and hanging up on me..I just want to become a virgin customer you have your chamber on my private driveway and tell me I can't be connected. If it doesn't exist I guess I'll dig it up?

@virginmedia Yeah 100% , it's been fine for the last 15 years I've been with Virgin, but I renewed my deal after it expired and it went crap overnight , I don't get it

(@tobypalmer1) reported
@virginmedia No, other than I have to wait 3months due to a banking error that delayed 1 payment. Witch has been paid and over the last 6 year payments of upto £200pm have never been missed I find it very disappointing

(@JSambrooks) reported
Hi @virginmedia any chance you can sort your complaints team and engineers to speak to each other. Another date change on visit, another complaint and no call. Won’t be accepting £10 compensation this time. Appalling service for 20 yr customer.

@virginmedia Hey, it seems to be the case while I'm at work and it's only been this week. My colleague (also on virgin) is having the same issues (he listens to the radio on his phone and it keeps cutting out). My texts and calls are absolutely fine, it just seems to be 1/2

@virginmedia I've made another complaint using that link reference C-150922722 . I think the previous complaint appeared closed by VM without my consent as it didn't appear on any list, and without any resolution.

@virginmedia Your online services and whatsapp service can't help me. I keep getting passed between call centres located all over the world. Worst service I've ever had from a supplier bar none.

@virginmedia All I can do really is inform others on social media so they'll stay away from you, and maybe write to MPs to make UK law match other countries where it is illegal to charge an early exit fee. After all, if people could just leave, your service would be impeccable.
