What an absolute farce @virginmedia are. Pay a ridiculous amount each month for slow broadband that regularly doesn’t work. Now on to a second day with no service and TiVo is also down. Pathetic.

@BBCRedButton I don't think your red button service is working on @virginmedia. It's brings up the iPlayer but no live stuff like the springwatch webcams

@virginmedia @virginmedia service from you has been poor for months - missing the footie is just the last straw. Kindly send an engineer to fix our broadband - the wires at the wall outside are exposed and when we test each day our speeds are below 20MB/s when we are paying for 100+ Thank you

@virginmedia hi a few folks on our street keep experiencing drop outs of WiFi signal in the middle of the working week, a few of them have made contact with you but no issues are being found, and you don’t seem to be able to help? but there is clearly an issue?

@virginmedia how do you log a complaint? It’s made impossible. Emailed the ceo weeks ago and no response

@virginmedia Then when transferred to ‘customer care’ so that I could complain and seek compensation, I waited another 20mins and was eventually cut off without speaking to anyone.

@lxwissssss @MartinEdition @virginmedia Mine is excellent once they replaced the wiring because it was old and now mine never goes off and it’s super fast! The English call centres are great but the Indian and Philippines ones are really bad I avoid them because they just read off scripts!

. @virginmedia rang virgin last week to move house. You've done the external install yesterday but haven't turned up for internal install today. Tried to log into my account and it says my package is cancelled no options for support at all. Called and hung up on before answer.

@virginmedia Thanks for reply. Problem was that no agent ever responded to move requests via the bot. I sat for 1hr on the phone last night and finally got it booked. If the bot had worked 1st time I’d be switched on when I move. Now I’ll be without service for a week. Not good when wfh!

@virginmedia They raised a complaint and nothing was done about it, they probably didn’t even listen to the call where I was sold the product, if they did it would have been dealt with

@virginmedia I called the help line and a bot told me to restart my router twice and then proceeded to end the call. Little fed up

@virginmedia I was told that I would be called back by a manager #lies Now due to further incompetence you have cut off my Internet & phone service. Claiming that I haven't paid a bill when there's a direct debit set up! #diabolical service. I've never been treated so poorly.

@virginmedia Hi, my Hub 3 seems to be totally broken. No internet, non responsive to hard reset, does not assign IP when plugged in via Ethernet. Have appointment scheduled for Saturday but wondered if possible to send replacement sooner since it isn’t a connection issue.

Could you please let me know how to get in touch with the installations team because your customer services team has put me again on the tune even after repeated requests. This is ridiculous. @virginmedia

@virginmedia @O2 Your company is a joke. You don’t want everyone to be connected as you can’t organise your company to install your services! I have been waiting since August.. customer service dept is useless!

@virginmedia This has been going on for nearly two months. You keep telling us he hasn't provided proof of move to an address that Virgin does not and cannot service. We have emailed it 4 TIMES!! We have tried to call and can't speak to anyone as my 78yr old dad has forgotten his password

@SingleMumDiary @virginmedia Just read this. You are not alone. My in-laws, both in 90s have had no phone for about 3 weeks. Engineer booked for today - didn't turn up and still no working phone,working for very long standing customers who need a home phone. Awful from Virgin Media!!
