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.

Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia It’s strange because the online help claims there’s no problem but the phone says there’s a major problem in the area. Perhaps the online help needs updating because it’s no help at all
-

Abdullah Mulla (@a8dullah_mulla) reported from Dewsbury, England@virginmedia well done 👏🏽 new way of resolving complaints! Offer a resolution that you know customer won’t accept so you can pass on to an adjudicator… all in a record time of 8mins!!!
-
-BMiller- (@BMiller36990477) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia Sure, office this morning at about 8am. No service and Internet access by 9.30M and popped back late morning and still nothing around 10.45am. So finished my admin at home with my own broadband connection. Didn't call or raise the issue as its a pointless exercise. Cheers

lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia failed install which worked for 2 hours and I cancelled within 14 days . I've now got a a bill for £62 ! Your staff just cut me off and I'm disabled and need help
-
Ed Foster (@EJJFoster) reported from Wakefield, England@virginmedia I have tried the status but its saying the service is fine. Yet all the people on out estate are complaining they cannot get onto Virgin internet. We cannot book an engineer as isolating. Why is it constantly broken or speeds so slow?

IMinimann (@IMinimann) reported@saltyy_savage @virginmedia When will people realise that Virgin Media internet is just awful? They promote crazy how download speeds, decent upload speeds, only for it to fluctuate like crazy, switch to BT/EE & don't look back 💪 @FriendlyGuyTTV

Daran (@LoyalRoyalDaz) reported@shaunriley1954 @DarcKni68649817 @virginmedia Telecential.. i started with them as well. They were based just down the road from. The lack of respect we get as super longterm customers is terrible but they are all the same..
-
Abs (@redphillll) reported@virginmedia can you please advise why I have not had my complaint resolved within the 28 days? It has now been over a week since it should have been resolved. You advised that I would receive a call back this week and I haven’t. The way this has been handled is unacceptable.
