@bjorn_haynes @vmbusiness Took over 9 days to fix my business land line, retail shop, had customer panicking that we had closed. Not what you want to here. Then no broadband for two days couldn't take care payments, cost us 1000s. Then when down again this week. Biggest threat to my business is virgin.

@virginmedia It’s not a connection issue. Your engineer fitted my 10 year old tv with the latest HD box, which has overloaded my HDMI ports & my tv is now broken. Customers services do not understand what I am saying. The engineers have both confirmed a replacement tv needs to be sent out.

@bjorn_haynes @vmbusiness Takes so long to pass through each layer of customer service as well, must have explained the situation 15 tines. You feel unless you push the situation won't get resolved. Case of he who shouts loudest.

@virginmedia WHAT AN AWFUL SERVICE YOU ARE PROVIDING! Internet down over 1 hour, your automated service hangs up when saying it’s going to test my line and when I ring and go to ‘ want to leAve’ that’s a 10 min+ hang on phone Sort yourselves out Virgin Media😡

He said that @virginmedia will confirm with the engineers manager that what I am saying is true, and there will be no issues in arranging this. He totally accepts that the virgin box has wrecked my tv... trying to explain this to the people at customer services is another story..

@foxinthebox2010 @virginmedia You do have a point @foxinthebox2010 though because they were asking if customers would be willing to pay £20 one off fee, then £15, £10, £5...which implies they could afford to upgrade for free but just want to squeeze more money of out their customers. We’ve had awful service

Virgin media - your automated service has a flaw, it just repeats the same message, ‘ no faults found’, when there is a fault, like my internet is giving 2Mb download right now

And now ALL of my channels are ghosting. The picture is so bad I can’t watch anything, on any channel. My tv was totally fine before they arrived! The engineer said for me to call @virginmedia customer services, tell them what had happened, and a replacement tv will be arranged..

@foxinthebox2010 @virginmedia The £20, £15, £10 down to £5 smacked of desperation really! Just give me the bloody box. We’ve been with you long enough!!!!!

The man on the phone told me that can’t happen, and that my tv isn’t broke! Totally patronising me! I haven’t even been with @virginmedia for 24 hours, and I am totally appalled with the customer service! I am awaiting a call from a manager. Fingers crossed e understand me!

@virginmedia our wifi drips out anything between 4 and 8 times a day. The app always says there are no issues. Getting pretty sick of it now. Looks like going back to @SkyUK is the only way.

@virginmedia So only total loss of service allows me compensation,just 7 days of really awful service including customer services, when asked about compensation and I query the criteria,throw a ‘sorry I can’t hear you’... Now that’s really awful customer service 😡

@foxinthebox2010 @virginmedia It was a customer insight survey sent to me by email. Gives you no chance to really voice your opinion as it’s just pushing the new box.

@virginmedia Buy its another Friday, only 2 weeks ago the same thing, was off all day, back on at 11pm. I'm working from home but can't now, what's the "problem" this time. It's infuriating

@virginmedia shame really because you’ve provided a good service over the years but only leaving due to the previous tweets. Might be back in the future but i am quite loyal to my providers hence 10+ years with VM so will probably stay with my future provider for a good while.

@virginmedia Can you stop doing this please? Unfortunately, unceasing apologies on Twitter do not compensate for your failure to schedule a service visit within a reasonable period of time.

@virginmedia On both my wired PC and our various wireless devices. Rather confusingly, when I checked the service status just now it says that there is an issue and an engineer is due to fix it before 6 tonight, but if I then run a test it tells me there is no network issue found.

@virginmedia Yes I have seen that guidance. But there is still nothing you can do with that guidance. I have tried to email, and chat online but no one responds. Is there a form I can just fill in? It’s getting very frustrating. If not I’ll just cancel.

@virginmedia is just going to remain inadequate?” That was the end of it. Not once has there been an offer of sending anyone out to investigate- we just put up with interrupted work meetings, frequent resets and more time spent telling you the problems (usually with the obligatory 30 mins

@virginmedia I have done that numerous times, at about to monthly intervals. At the conclusion of the last one, the team member said “Well, then I don’t think there is anything else I can do.” To my response of “You mean we pay you £130 a month and you are telling me that part of that service
