  • sheradondublin Sheradon Dublin (@sheradondublin) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia The new box arrived, and the WiFi sorted itself out for now at least. The boosters are still generating the old network also. I’m planning on leaving everything as it is till it goes wrong again, then I’ll call.

  • sheradondublin Sheradon Dublin (@sheradondublin) reported from Margate, England

    Hello @virginmedia, is there a way I can talk to someone about my WiFi problem this morning.

  • D4nBu7ke Daniel Burke (@D4nBu7ke) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    I sent a email to @virginmedia on the 15th January, I was given the following Complaint reference: C-150121161 And promised contact within 28 days, by my counting it’s been 2 months.....

  • SamRSparrow Sam Sparrow (@SamRSparrow) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia Already done it and there is an outage in the area and now saying won’t be updated until 9.30pm? How am I supposed to work?

  • jsfuller75 Jason Fuller (@jsfuller75) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia Is there a fix for your customer service as no one seems to want to help me on your messaging service.

  • bobvoyage Bob Voyage (@bobvoyage) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia if you think I am going to be talking to my family over Christmas while my WiFi is down, you can think again. Get the engineer out here or I'm sending you shite in the post daily.

  • sheradondublin Sheradon Dublin (@sheradondublin) reported from Margate, England

    Morning @virginmedia, I’m starting to become a little fed up with your current business model. You take my money, but supply a less than reliable WiFi service. Will it take a cancelled direct debit to get your attention? Please fix. 😡

  • SamRSparrow Sam Sparrow 🇪🇺 (@SamRSparrow) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia I am extremely unhappy broadband been down since 1.15pm. Booked an engineer. This has been cancelled with no explanation. Can’t book another. Service status says it’s fine but many others online in CT10 says there is an area issue. First person on phone hung up.

  • CaryAWright Cary Wright (@CaryAWright) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia not had internet, for 24 hours. I spoke to customer services at 18:00 who “guaranteed it would be fixed by 21:25” I checked this 3 times as, at that point, I could arrange alternatives to finish work for Xmas. Now I can’t and still have no internet. Appalling!

  • SamRSparrow Sam Sparrow (@SamRSparrow) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia service down in CT10 area, loads of people reporting this on social media etc but service status says it is fine. Can you please look into this ASAP?!

  • SamRSparrow Sam Sparrow 🇪🇺 (@SamRSparrow) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia The service status page hasn’t updated since 1pm. Everyone in the area has the internet down and yet I’m being told right now on the phone there is no problem. I had an engineer booked tomorrow and VM cancelled that and now can’t send one until Monday? Awful service.

  • SamRSparrow Sam Sparrow 🇪🇺 (@SamRSparrow) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia Why would my page have no update since 1pm? I’m only getting updates via community Facebook page and my parents. My postcode is CT10 2SW. I would also like to know why my engineer visit was cancelled and how I make a complaint.

  • MagicIce Magic Ice (@MagicIce) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @QueenieandBlue @RageDarling @virginmedia Im with virgin media mine goes down with really really bad weather like we are having now. But apart that i carnt complain about the service. Because my sky goes at the same time as virgin does in the bad weather.

  • nghudson Nigel Hudson (@nghudson) reported from Preston, England

    @Jess_Guth @virginmedia @virginmedia are the pits!!! Dreadful customer service and they’ve tried to charge us for a phone service we terminated 3 months ago!!! 👎🏻🤬

  • Jackd_cpfc Margate Jack (@Jackd_cpfc) reported from Margate, England

    @money4nuffin @virginmedia This is the 1st issue I’ve had with them in fairness and not happy with the way they are handling it. Other than screen shots of other peoples phones I’ve had no updates

  • D4nBu7ke Daniel Burke (@D4nBu7ke) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia Nothing at all, I would like the complaint looked at today and I want a call or email. Not sms.

  • andeenic Andy Nicoll (@andeenic) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia Hi I have now chased up 4 times wasting countless pointless hours and it seems that I need to contact CISAS to get a response unless you can help. Ref number COM10411 f

  • gadogrescue Guardian Angels Dog Rescue Ltd (@gadogrescue) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia your customer service is very disappointing. Have nothing but problems but never get any help from you.

  • jimmygreen83 James Green (@jimmygreen83) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia... broadband has been down all day and expected back at 5:25pm, still not working. Now, recheck the app and not expected back until 8am tomorrow! Seriously?! Why? What has happened? How can it be down for that long? Ridiculous, especially when people work from home.

  • Dan13lBurk3 Daniel Burke (@Dan13lBurk3) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia I’m not a technician, can you guys just let me leave my contract after this. Terrible customer service, even worse service, waiting to join @EE but stuck in a contract that only seems to work one way. You really are a shambles.

    @virginmedia I have been trying for the last two days to notify you that I am moving house. I have tried your chat function (awful), and just spent 52 minutes waiting on hold on the phone, and have just been cut off. I don't know how any legitimate company can operate like this.

    @virginmedia I don’t need to be patronised.. or quietened down.. I need help by someone that can get something done quickly. Can you arrange that? Can you actually do anything real to help the situation? Or is this just PR?

  • YellowZephyr Jozo70 🇬🇧 (@YellowZephyr) reported

    @virginmedia I appreciate your help, messaging isn't the best form of communication. I am not angry at you, but I am annoyed of the service I am getting. My postcode is W3 8EW.
