@Jack173_ @virginmedia The service has been truly awful for a week now Jack, you'll probably find it's nothing to do with your end. This is exactly what I'm talking about. If someone takes your road up, you get a notice. If Virgin fibre goes down or someone just pushes the wrong button, it's all meh

@virginmedia I did and they couldn’t do anything. I’m very disappointed that not even going just broadband could reduce anywhere near new customers. My car insurance has to match new customer deals. You should do the same.

@MeNigeStew I'm with @virginmedia suffering for decent coverage in parts of the house & despite trying a pod (which has yet to work btw) wifi extenders (which fight with the main router) & 2 engineer visits I'm still suffering. Having full TV as well not sure how broadband price breaks down

@virginmedia @Mikeper81999705 This is what I'm tweeting about. It's no information that the internet is down, I know my internet is down. Customers for some odd reason, might want to know why??

@virginmedia Yeah we're just going to wait yet again for you to "fix" the problem, not holding my breath! And yet you chose to address this and not the rude customer service I received 🤔

@virginmedia very disappointed that being a customer for nearly 25 years doesn’t warrant any discount but being a new one did. Bye bye I’m off to @bt_uk

@virginmedia Can your company please start putting out adequate information directly to your customers please, instead of assuming we should go looking for answers. Believe it or not people deal with the truth far better than these days would tell us. Why is the network failing?

@virginmedia Tried them all over 18 months. Short of moving the router, which imo will shift the issue from one room to another, there's not a lot else open to me according to your representatives. We work from home and my wife uses all her mobile data every month as a wifi hotspot

Morning @virginmedia I know it's not your fault but communication is impossible so I have turned to Twitter for help. Have you any idea when @YodelOnline will get their act together as we have been wasting days off waiting for important packages from you?

@virginmedia I’ve contacted after last months bill and the bill before and before….I get told that I won’t be getting chased for the difference but I don’t understand why you just can’t get it right and fix it

@virginmedia @richardbranson how bad are your installation teams in Blackpool! They can’t even put a cable in the ground in 6 weeks at my property, think somebody needs to check on your engineers to see what they do all day! #busydoingnothing #virginmedia #broadband 👎🤬

@virginmedia Internet back up now. Don't have a problem with either maintenance or an unavoidable fault, I just wish you'd send out an SMS or something to inform customers of why, and for how long. Otherwise you get people just sat waiting and none the wiser.

@virginmedia I have paid for all my boxes to be updated and setup by your engineer. I have just spent 45 mins trying to reinstate sky sports, which I pay for and haven’t had since, on my new boxes before your ‘customer service’ abruptly cut me off! What do I do now? 😡

@virginmedia I’m looking to upgrade my hub 3 as it’s old and rarely gets above 40mbps although we’re on the 350mbps fibre broadband package. I wanted a new hub 3 or the hub 4 but can never speak to a human. I bet if I was a new customer I would get through straight away. 😡

@virginmedia What a TERRIBLE monopolistic broadband service you provide in Kentish Town NW5 2LL/2JX. This last 10 days, endless outages. For this you rob me of £60pm. Many neighbours report the same exasperating experience. Can't wait for next month when G-Network goes lives.

I swear @virginmedia have the worst customer service ever! Paying customer of a good package from them for well over 2 years and they can't even get an email correct Which has caused billing issues again that shoukd have been resolved the first time
