Gareth Balmer (@garethbalmer) reported from Bristol, England@virginmedia All good now - there were some power issues in another part of Gloucester that seemed to be causing the V6 box at our house and a few friends to restart. Very odd

Ryan Carrington (@thisisryanc) reported from Bristol, England@virginmedia Constantly drops out, coupled with frequently slow speeds. Price increases for a worsening service.
-
Miles (@Milesenberg) reported from Bristol, England@virginmedia my mum's landline is down and she's found your customer service that she's tried to call on mobile completely unhelpful. She needs an engineer to go to her house to fix it.

-
Matthew Turner (@MTurnerNFL) reported from Bristol, England@virginmedia The only issue I have with that is that every time I contact that number, the following happens: 1) I explain the issue, again 2) they advise me to follow the steps as are online, again, that I've already done, even though I say I've done them 3) they ask me to monitor 1/2
-
Alex (@0JTheJuice) reported from Bristol, England@virginmedia Hey BG, so in total it disconnected 7 times from 7pm yesterday. The lights started flashing Green, after multiple resets it continued to disconnect throughout the evening. Really disappointed. Not the first time I’ve had issues with virgin’s internet.

GW 🔰🏴 (@GW_Mktg) reported@O2 terrible signal in my own home. @virginmedia have let me down (yet again) so no WiFi equals no use of phone. Long-standing client and not really feeling that benefit. Started a DM conversation which went dead. Please help
-
Paul Turner™ (Personal) (@PaulTurner140) reported@DrealSMAK @virginmedia Don’t waste your time. They only want you to DM them to keep your complaint from public view.
-
Karl Dyer (@KarlDyer15) reportedTo work for @virginmedia you don’t need a brain cell, maybe the worst company in the UK I’ve ever had the displeasure of dealing with. Avoid them at all costs

tommier (@coillteman) reported@TheMandyGall @virginmedia @rte RTÉ bias, it doesn't suit the governments narrative on whom their very existence depends on. €750,000,000 was a great handout to them. That's ¾ of a BILLION WTF they are beholding to the government who have paid a high price for a PR company which RTE is.

neil holden (@neil131161) reportedAnyone in your establishment care to answer & dare i wish you reply to my messages on webchat or Wassap?? Absolute shambles of a service 🤬 @virginmedia
-
Emily Atkins (@bahallathegreat) reported@virginmedia It was taken up by a carpet fitter and never relayed it so angry at that and I never had anyone to look to see if everything was running ok

Ali Dalton (@alidalton) reportedIn 2017 I was the first designer at a UK fintech startup now valued at $100m+, with 500+ employees across 60 countries. It was just me, two founders, and two others in a room in London. The work wasn't a redesign. It was branding and the early flows for a payments platform. Nobody in that room called it design strategy. It was five people deciding how the product should work before there was a product. Then I spent almost a decade in the corporate world. Citibank, Mercedes, NatWest, Virgin Media. Products used by 50M+ people. £11M NPV on one project. That world taught me systems thinking, rigour, how to make a decision that survives fifteen stakeholders and a compliance review. It also taught me that six months to ship a signup flow is not a law of physics. It's a byproduct of the org chart. Most funded founders assume those two things come as a package. That if you want big company craft you have to accept big company timelines. You don't. The thinking travels. The process doesn't have to. I didn't leave because the work was bad. It was the best training I could have asked for. I left because I wanted the room of five again. Take everything those companies taught me and run it my way. No six week kickoff. No deck to justify a deck. A way founders can actually work with. So I started my studio last year. 5+ projects since across Fintech, publishing, agri-tech, and two founders launching their brands from zero. It's graft. But it's my graft now. If you're funded, building, and the product works but the numbers don't - that's the exact problem I spend my days on.

Kate and her girls (@kateandhergirls) reported@virginmedia Your chat colleague already looked into it and was incredibly rude and basically said tough you’re an existing customer on a contract and we don’t help our loyal customers, just new ones 🙄

Joe Duley American voiceover person (@Americanvoiceo1) reportedYour service is atrocious. @virginmedia I attempted to call in to report (ongoing ) technical issue and your agent tried to upsell me a SIM card. Now...your phone number is not working, nor is our BB or TV. Offcom and Ombudsman will be receiving a correspondence from me.
