Running on about 4 hours of broken sleep, woken up with a cracking headache, cramps and Virgin Media is down. Life is hard.

@zoebartlett Funny how @virginmedia say they have no access to accounts over social media yet yesterday I dealt with my issue finally over the same social media platform. They contradict themselves time after time.

@virginmedia This is the exact problem. Your agents deny there is an issue in the area. A recent social media post revealed many people in our neighbourhood have the same issue. All your agents want to do is ‘send signals’ to our router and restart our router. Nobody taking issue seriously.

@virginmedia Still no response. 19 days and counting 🙄. It’s clear you’ve been lying to get rid of me. What are you going to do to resolve this issue before I contact ombudsman? A suggestion: you arrange for someone to contact me. By now it should be clear to you your support doesn’t work.

@virginmedia and after a previous phone call a few weeks ago where your adviser said we could write a letter of complaint, we have still received no response in writing as requested and today been told it’s not your policy to reply? Terrible service!

@virginmedia do you have ANY customer service people working? I have tried ringing you for the last 24 hours and constantly get a ‘ring back later’ message. The service these days is appalling. I sent a tweet yesterday that mentioned Amazon and they replied to me. Virgin didn’t!

@virginmedia so you don't have a complaints team yet you advise to ring x number to raise a complaint. Misleading information re when a call can be pulled to listen to. Told twice 72 hours, 96 hours gone by and now being told 30-40 days.

@Jimbob_Du @_Kano_P Virgin media is the worst, I had a fault with my Vito box it took 4 months before customer service put me through to faults, explained what was happening to the person who answered immediately he said its a Vito fault...

@virginmedia December. Official complaint prior to that. Please read back through your thread, the broken promises and the lies then come back with a proposal to resolve.

@virginmedia on top of hundreds of spam junk emails we have umpteen scam calls on the landline. Very day I am getting increasingly saddened by Virgin Media’s inability to stop scammers and spam flooding my system. Very expensive terrible service

@virginmedia another poor lengthy phone call with one of your customer service advisers following being mis-sold your services. Refusal to listen to our original telephone calls where we were mis-sold the service and refusal to accept any responsibility.

@virginmedia Just wondered if I’ve waited long enough yet for anyone @virginmedia to care enough to respond to me? Still no forum response. Still not complaint response. Still line issues. Just lies from your SM team.

@virginmedia I get that. But several people on there have logged issues. I haven’t used that tool but try it. But issue is defo at your end as between outages speed/latency is brilliant and other people have same issue on street. That’s why I’m so keen to fix not leave as usually gr8 service.

@virginmedia Yes dropouts Ethernet and WiFi. To be clear that message was not our engineer. Just proof prob is beyond our home. That neighbourhood thread is 14 comments long! We’ve had 2 engineers out. Cable replaced and hub replaced. Problem persists. 4 dropouts this eve alone.

@virginmedia Your agent told me 72hrs. But then I was also told if I post on the forum I will get support. But we can all see how that has panned out. Just. Fix. The. Problem. Why is this so difficult? I guess copy/paste apologies are just cheaper than dealing with the real issues.

@virginmedia 2. Consultant has offered me 125mbps for 44 pound (18month contract). I am customer for over 8 years, it just amazed me HOW IT IS POSSIBLE, that @virginmedia offered this to an 8 year customer, while having on website SAME DEAL for 26.5 a month.

@virginmedia Hi so it’s now been over a month and this issue still hasn’t been fixed even though you keep giving me dates how much longer do I have to wait for this issue to be fixed? What’s the current timeframe for a fix?

@virginmedia No issues in my area when phoning the number either. It's been 22 hours technically but what worries me is that the fault doesn't show anywhere? Postcode is E17

5. What I would suggest to @virginmedia customers: Once your contract is finished, just end it. There is no point to be with them, since they don't respect your money. But if no other choice: end it. Ask for a service as new customer.

@virginmedia No broadband since 2pm yesterday. The live tracker shows no outage but the 0800 561 0061 days there is an outage in my area (Wn72jj). When’s the ETA? Because i phoned up the guy said an engineer is not available to 14th, will I be entitled 5 days compensation then?

(@early_speciall) reported
1 My @virginmedia broadband contract has finished. So it has been changed to 30day rolling contract. Massive price increase (from about 35 to about 55 quid), as always. Called @virginmedia support to sort it out, to get me on new contract.

4. For being loyal customer to @virginmedia you're getting: -higher price than new customer -absolutely useless customer help that just tries to take as much of your money as they can (keeps offering SIM deal or some other ****)
