    @sabele26 @Kat_Bee_123 @virginmedia Terrible none of them have good customer service, sky's as bad.

  • Garlic_Icon
    WTF! (@Garlic_Icon) reported from Antrim and Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia "aren't guaranteed?" They've been terrible from day one. After 6 months as a customer you clearly overpromise on your capabilities. My speeds at the moment are probably no better than dial up

  • tomdkeating
    Tom Keating (@tomdkeating) reported from Carryduff, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia any idea why Broadband and TV are down all day today in BT8?

  • boyd_ar
    Adrian Boyd (@boyd_ar) reported from Jordanstown, Northern Ireland

    @JAcheson_Eng @virginmedia I’m sure they all have issues at some point although I’ve had Sky Fibre Broadband and it’s been very good and the service support over the phone has been really excellent. I had an issue recently and it was sorted in 30 minutes over the phone.

    @virginmedia Multiple people across different parts of the city I’d say yes there was an issue. 14hours ago. But I’m not reporting a fault I’m making a complaint.

  • peterhkirk
    Pete Kirk (@peterhkirk) reported from Ballyclare, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I accept more customers are working from home including myself however after a year I would expect a company such as @virginmedia to adapt and do everything within their powers to improve their service, not worsen!!??

  • DenMagic
    Den (@DenMagic) reported from Dunmurry, Northern Ireland

    I wonder how many times today my 'superfast' @virginmedia will slow down and cut off? Lodged complaint and passed it onto BBC Watchdog. #virginmedia

  • DrRichCollins
    Richard Collins (@DrRichCollins) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia hi, how do I escalate a complaint through customer service please? New service connection as of Monday... tv service still not working despite 2 calls (and v long waits) to customer service number. Not happy and considering cancellation.

  • FuscoTV
    Angelina Fusco (@FuscoTV) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Dreadful #biz service @virginmedia all day and evening. To add to the problem @ITVX also stuttering

  • Torig1983
    Victoria Gillespie (@Torig1983) reported from Dunmurry, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Working now but annoying as has taken most of afternoon up... now waiting for pc to reboot and virgin media chat doesn't work on phone so kept being given to runaround and redirected to faq pages. .such a faff

  • HarbourLord
    Harbour 💚 (@HarbourLord) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia you have the worst laid out website. All I'm trying to do is speak to someone on chat to figure out why I have zero upload speed right now and honestly thinking of just cancelling my broadband contract because your site is so unfriendly for customers to navigate.

  • beezlebum
    Sir Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia you've surpassed yourselves this time! 50 days without broadband and yet another promised date of reconnection passed with no communication or explanation. I refuse to waste another sunny weekend waiting for your useless 'customer services' to lie to me.

  • peterhkirk
    Pete Kirk (@peterhkirk) reported from Ballyclare, Northern Ireland

    When is @virginmedia going to be called to order by authorities. How is possible they get away with customers on hold for hours, broadband service levels vastly below power and to rub salt in, @virginmedia think it is acceptable to increase their fees? Enough is enough, @CISASUK!

  • davidannett7
    David Annett (@davidannett7) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @JakeOKane @virginmedia Customer service are a complete shambles, probably the worst out there

  • beezlebum
    Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @raycasey2003 Delicious! Having just spent six months of my life battling @virginmedia for the bare minimum compensation I was entitled to and witnessing their atrocious 'customer service', this has delighted me. I know he doesn't own Vigin Media anymore, but he created the monster.

  • Pascalstil
    Pascal Stil (@Pascalstil) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Nice nonsense answer. One of our connections here in the house has been down for two weeks because a second connection was added, this ome is all on you

  • mfearonmusic
    Michael Fearon (@mfearonmusic) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia And I was also advised if it wasn’t resolved soon I should show the contract agreed to ofcom. Hopefully you can fix this or escalate it, thanks.

    @virginmedia @Francesca090900 There us no option for loss of TV service, only for broadband and calls.

  • RBlackPA

    @virginmedia Its sorted, I’m switching to another provider. I’ve never had such a poor customer service experience in my life

    @virginmedia @_JIMBO55 You still have not got it ! A customer has problems with your service who has messaged, emailed and called VM but you still have not dealt with their issues. Take your out of date equipment out of my home and I will move on to a better provider. For an 82 year old unacceptable.

    @caz_fizz @MelJanie @virginmedia Virgin are terrible now. Since the Welsh and North East staff were laid off. The overseas workers are untrained and promise the earth but deliver nothing and cause hours of phone calls for issues that could and should be solved in 3 minutes.

    Virgin Media/O2 service event to **** when they started using the same type of call centres that Scammer PayBack would have interest in.

    Alex Davies (@daviesa02) reported

    @virginmedia an engineer visited over the weekend to install my broadband, but the external work wasn’t finished. CS booked another engineer for today, but they don’t need them anymore because the roadworks are is being completed today. £25 to cancel myself, can this be sorted?

    Paddy Sweeney (@PaddySw99745534) reported

    @virginmedia @pholmes38 Repeatedly sent messages/emails explaining the issues. You don’t appear to know what you are doing. Awful customer service. Paddy Sweeney

  • TomJJarvis
    Tom J Jarvis (@TomJJarvis) reported

    @virginmedia Your salesperson confirmed by text that his manager had approved covering that £6 for the term. I have the messages. It has never appeared on my bill. He asked me to email a compensation request, which I did. No reply. Chased three times since. No reply. 2/
