Andrew English (@andy_english) reported from Dewsbury, England@LordTets @virginmedia Go to Ofcom... you have clearly given them ample time on numerous occasions to resolve your complaint. Life is too short to spend your time waiting for promised calls and web chats... let the ombudsman deal with them.

Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported from Sheffield, England@StueyDay @virginmedia @lionsgateplusuk The service is awful and customers find it too hard to get a prompt response. Last time this happened it took at least 8-10 emails before they got past the automated letter asking me to switch off, reboot and check all the connections.

Claire 💙 (@ClaireWinslade) reported from Sheffield, EnglandMoved to @virginmedia on Monday and router didn’t come. Then when it came Wednesday the internet wouldn’t connect. After 7 phone calls and an engineer called out it’s still not working 😡 and it seems if you are on hold for too long they just cut you off. So frustrating
-
Gary Fretwell (@GaryFretwell1) reported from Wakefield, England@virginmedia I appreciate your advice, but rather than ask fellow customers for a fix I’d rather hope @virginmedia trained staff would be able to rectify this issue. I’ll try the forum, but this is not the way to run a business….@Ofcom
-
Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia Oh yes and I’ve phoned. It appears to be that yesterday’s problems haven’t been resolved.

Jon Ashman (@JonAshman2) reported@virginmedia I’m paying £176.00 per month for your services so quite frankly an apology isn’t good enough I’ll contact yourselves later regarding my contract the service you now offer is woeful
-
Duncan Waugh (@waughzone) reported@dobbin1957 @virginmedia I struggle to get any communication from @virginmedia at all but then, when they did communicate, it contained blatant lies saying they had fixed the issue and an engineer had been out (neither of those things happened).
-
RoadRunner TX (@FredBra93439257) reported@TheMercianNews I'd like to see mobile phone and internet companies shut down operating in the UK on a single day. Have USN/Seals sever all international fiber into the UK on a single day. SHUT DOWN the City of London Physically SEVER International Fiber from BT/OpenReach, VirginMedia/O2, Vodaphone and the LINX Nework internchange in London. Ideally each line in 2-3 points of varying distance from UK shores to make repair more complex than laying new fiber. Air attack on all the major BT interchanges plus the physical operations of Cloudflare Akamai, AWS/Cloudfront, GoogleCloud CDN and smaller operators like Azure, Netflix, Meta and every source of new fiber either mfg or warehousing Destroy every piece of equipment and then just leave. Make all European govts TERRIFIED of the crazy Americans Destroy the internet as a means of brainwashing the British public

Prettyflyguy (@Prettyflyguy77) reported@KaiGWatson Have a look at Cityfibre providers if your area has it. You'll get Virgin media speeds but with a much better reliable service.

Robb Pickard (@PourMeAGin) reported@skytv never met a system so unfit for purpose. The latency on Sky Glass causing freezing is awful. To be told no solution is BS. Cannot wait for contract to be over so can leave. Maybe @virginmedia will make a decent offer to rejoin.
