  • Cod49ers Marc Tobin (@Cod49ers) reported from Grays, England

    @virginmedia A thousand times. On a chat all day yesterday and was promised someone would call me, no one did. To say this is the worst customer experience I have ever had would be an understatement.

  • Juliefleur24 Joobs (@Juliefleur24) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    Great still no tv or more importantly internet from @virginmedia again, apparently there’s an ‘issue’ 🙄

  • ChrisyL1 Chris L (@ChrisyL1) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia Ty for getting back to me, look we have been together for too long to just throw it all away bc of one incident so I will take a look once I’m home from work ... I miss you lots x

  • joana_ferreira1 Joana (@joana_ferreira1) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia I've been without broadband this past 2 days😤its been weeks of instable Internet and now it doesn't work at all.I contacted customer service that always tell me that a engineer its solving the problem but still no Internet

  • dietmarlen Dietmar Lenden #FBPE (@dietmarlen) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia is down again for our entire block and the CS line is still closed. 3 weeks in a row. No status update and same issue. Not looking good here

  • MarkPashby Mark Pashby (@MarkPashby) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia i get it. Captalist country and therefore a fallacy to beleive we dont need you. You social media support responders are in jobs etc But really, VM broadband is a joke. Bring back telewest and the more personal service of old. #virginmediadown again

  • NickLovell_ Nick Lovell (@NickLovell_) reported from London, England

    @ThreeUK absolutely fed up of the abysmal service I get with my broadband. It simply doesn’t work. Was promised a speed in the store, ive never even got half. Constantly dropping out. Time to change back to @virginmedia

  • cooperthecub Cooperthecub (@cooperthecub) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia Please can you help. Yet again my download and upload speeds are terrible can’t load or download anything. I’m paying for 110mbps but you give me 7mbps and less than 1mbps upload. Your ruining my business I pay you guys so much cash and my issues never get callbacks

  • Corey_XOTWOD Corey (@Corey_XOTWOD) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia your internet service is so bad, feels like my entire internet connection at home got put in a spliff...sort it out...

  • Cod49ers Marc Tobin (@Cod49ers) reported from Grays, England

    All ******* weekend on to @virginmedia about their shit service and absolutely nothing

  • dietmarlen Dietmar Lenden #FBPE (@dietmarlen) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia That is the first thing I checked and after the call center told me all is fine, an engineer will be sent out on Monday a text came back about 3 hours later to say there was actually an issue and you are working on it. So after we all called an issue was found hope it is fixed

  • Corey_XOTWOD Corey (@Corey_XOTWOD) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia your internet service is ******* ****, sort it outttt

  • dietmarlen Dietmar Lenden #FBPE (@dietmarlen) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia This issue is now appalling. Now I will not have internet connectivity for at least 3 days. That is unacceptable and I will have to wait until a new router arrives which is shocking

  • Cod49ers Marc Tobin (@Cod49ers) reported from Grays, England

    @financialombuds can I get out of my @virginmedia contract with no costs due to their complete failure to provide the service I pay for and refuse to deal with my issues

  • dietmarlen Dietmar Lenden #FBPE (@dietmarlen) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia mmm. Apparently because 10 flats are not working at the same time it is not a fault on your side but each one of us has the same issue by chance as your sys say all is good. Well all is not good and we have to wait till Monday for an engineer (all of us) area 22

  • stevespotlight steve osagie (@stevespotlight) reported from Swanley, England

    @virginmedia i used to highly rate your services but over last 3weeks your team & customer services been the worse . I am trying to pay a bill & u keep charging me more i will never ever use @Virgin service again highly disappointed #BadCustomerService #CustomerSrvice

  • kelly_bingham2 Kelly Bingham (@kelly_bingham2) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia you are an absolute shambles and that’s me being polite .... countless amounts of calls, hours on end of holding on the line and trying to resolve a very simple issue and it is STILL not resolved ..I am beyond frustrated now and will never ever use you again

  • stevespotlight steve osagie (@stevespotlight) reported from Swanley, England

    @virginmedia Always like the service rendered before but this time around unfair and i think this needs to be looked into as you have log on how many times i called in last month alone, #unfair #badcustomerservice

  • MarkPashby Mark Pashby (@MarkPashby) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia still no connectivity at all for me in SS0. Running a successful ISP should also surely include upda ting customers when issues arrise. Internet connectivity in this day and age is a utility, not a nice to have. #virginmediadown

  • thebooooooth Mark Booth (@thebooooooth) reported from Basildon, England

    Problems with @virginmedia continue. Now the wifi is down and no streaming tonight! #shouldnothaveleftsky #FirstWorldProblems

  • iana1964_mrsg Fabiana (@iana1964_mrsg) reported

    @virginmedia so we wait 60 mins on a call, get a revised price, & then the contract is emailed at a higher price than advised - really ? Is this how you treat customers?

  • grahamc72999873 graham carter (@grahamc72999873) reported

    @virginmedia Red button still not bloody working, don't say we are working on problem,it hasn't worked since season started. You are now *************** out of us customers

  • saccharyn Mars (@saccharyn) reported

    @virginmedia It clearly says an agent logged a complaint on my behalf but the issue I’m complaining about hasn’t been resolved.

  • MrHuskyx Husky (@MrHuskyx) reported

    @virginmedia Just spoken to someone on your fantastic customer service phone number, while she was yawning and not giving me clear answers!all ask you? What are you going to do about loss of service on multiple times? Couple of pence of our already £100+ bills? Ridiculous company!

  • jon_Oncecontent Jon (@jon_Oncecontent) reported

    @virginmedia Thats my question though - why can’t you - Dongle because the service has been poor fitting the broadband - ordered 22 August - order wasn’t done - wasn’t fitted - won’t be until November / its appalling - people hang up / drop calls / don’t call back - Joke

  • philthyrobbo Phil Robinson (@philthyrobbo) reported

    @virginmedia Yet again, NOT WORKING PROPERLY. Managed to get the Boro match on the red button in the front room when it should be working in mine too, but it's the Burnley commentary AGAIN! Just like 2 weeks ago. Abysmal service @virginmedia.

  • saccharyn Mars (@saccharyn) reported

    @virginmedia A complaint has been logged. I am obviously waiting for you guys to sort that out and contact me back. As per your own company’s complaints procedures. Do I also need to teach you how your company operates?

  • DannyTaylorDT Danny Taylor (@DannyTaylorDT) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    Every single championship midweek fixtures, there’s always an issue with the red button. They either forget to turn the game on or instead they’ve now managed to put the wrong commentary on. Sort it out @virginmedia @SkyFootball. Wrong commentary on the Boro game
