@virginmedia I’ve been trying to message with your help section for 3 hours now - had 2 agents introduce themselves then disappear. All I want to do is let them know the details of someone pretending to be Virgin who tried to scam me then threatened me this morning. Not good.

@virginmedia Can't get through and wifi is getting slower and slower. Could you please ask someone to send the signal to my box remotely as the automated system promised to do yesterday - but didn't! Thanks.

@virginmedia Look, I've done everything you told me to do: sending messages to the text no. you gave me - no response in a week - calling an automatic no that said it would send a signal to my equipment 'BECAUSE SOMETHING IS WRONG' - nothing happened......calling and not being answered ....

@virginmedia 45 minutes to get through to a person. Told them I wanted to leave. They put me on hold and cut me off! Goodbye Virgin - Hello Sky (the @skytv package is £70 cheaper). @virginmedia customer service is a disgrace

@virginmedia Eventually yes but had to go though the sales team first I get with the COVID situation it’s more tricky than normal but the 150 line though is appalling to be cut off after waiting spending nearly two hours is really poor service guys the people I did speak to were very helpful

And also @virginmedia if you reply to me with one more bot. I'm going to Dedicate every free hour I have for the next month to writing a fleet of bots to get people to leave your sucky service. So stick that up your bots.

@virginmedia I used the automatic system for Virgin to send a signal to sort out my problems - nothing has been done, now I'm on hold to speak to a human being 16 minutes and counting. This is unforgivable 2 weeks of : Slow Wifi, no apps working and can't even speak to someone.@BBCWatchdog

@virginmedia After over 3 hours and on my 3rd agent I managed to report it. The call was a scam, saying that my wifi was too slow and trying to get to my laptop. When I twigged and refused they became abusive and threatened physical abuse.

You bunch of cheap *** fraudsters @virginmedia . Invest in your infrastructure. Invest in your tech support. You really need a government watchdog don't you. You clearly can't be trusted to be a private company

@virginmedia We tried valiantly. After being let down again on the basics of simply getting us our equipment and getting us online we did eventually manage to speak to someone. Thankfully we managed to cancel and go back to Sky and never need to deal with Virgin Media ever again!

@virginmedia It literally says on the page in my account 48 hours. Instead of actually getting one of your colleagues to call me, following such a serious situation, you would prefer to prove a point? You haven’t even asked me what I need yet. Or how you can help. 15 years a customer and this

@gingerhobbit There was a day last year where Virgin Media went down for like the whole of Cambridgeshire, so half the team couldn't connect, including me. I made sure my boss knew the sitch then got on with some housework till it was done.
