  • watchvideosoul Nezih Savaşkan (@watchvideosoul) reported from Lambeth, England

    @DDavidian @virginmedia Upload is advertised. About 20meg. But had a few issues recently where download has randomly dropped from around 180-200 down to under 15.

  • scottyboy1973 Scott Brindley (@scottyboy1973) reported from Poplar, England

    @Ofcom @virginmedia @BBCWatchdog Virgin Media, you are the worst! Offering me a paltry £20 compensation for 10 days of total service loss. You deny it was a total loss not intermittent so I am not eligible for Ofcom compensation! False! #virginmedia #poorcustomerservice

  • baby2mummies 2 Mummies & A Baby (@baby2mummies) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia I have tv,phone and BB with you, I have called today to sign up to mobile, still haven’t received confirmation email or account details. Have called twice, not impressed with service and thinking time to cancel all virgin products I have

  • Lonmark1980 Markie (@Lonmark1980) reported from Bromley, England

    So annoying at @virginmedia internet had gone down!

  • Louisblack Louis Houghton (@Louisblack) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia I phoned up today to find out why I was paying £50 a month for internet when a new customer pays £35. I was basically told to accept it so I think I’ll look at moving to @SkyUK for £27 a month.

  • ShivzBelle Shivz Belle (@ShivzBelle) reported from Merton, England

    15yrs I was with @SkyUK @comcast and after just speaking with a top call handler I’ve just been passed through to the most arrogant unhelpful person in the cancellation team! I’m leaving mate! @virginmedia @TalkTalk Loyal customer coming your way! #Telecommunications

  • Louisblack Louis Houghton (@Louisblack) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia It just seems odd that Virgin seem happier losing an existing customer than just giving them the same deal as a new customer. Instead of £35 a month they get nothing.

  • KeithBursnall Keith Bursnall (@KeithBursnall) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia According to your website broadband connectivity is fine and TV is experiencing some issues with certain channels. I have no broadband and no channels at all

  • Holly_Christie Holly Christie (@Holly_Christie) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @james_etheridge @virginmedia I found Virgin so unreliable and their customer service so terrible that in the end I left them after 8 years of loyalty because I just couldn't work out what I was even paying for...

  • aubreydav1s Aubrey Davis (@aubreydav1s) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia Still down. So I’ve now missed two live games and soccer Saturday. Been on hold at your call centre for 30 minutes now as well

  • gborg9 Gino Borg (@gborg9) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia I have done multiple times ... by phone and by chat ... the Indians helpful but useless, the British patronising and rude

  • ValetShoeDoc Valet@Shoe-Doc (@ValetShoeDoc) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia Virgin Boardband why for the last 3 THURSDAY in a row that there is a Boardband outage in the RM26QD area. We work in a society where companies allow working from home. Called Customer Service who was just reading a script and repeating himself. Sort it out Virgin

  • lambertusc Lambertus Cornelius (@lambertusc) reported from Merton, England

    @Camclarky @virginmedia Get out Cameron, Sky is a superior service in every aspect. I am hoping to rid myself of Virgin AS SOON AS THEY BOTHER ANSWERING THEIR PHONE! #TransferTalk #TransferDeadline #virginsucks

  • gborg9 Gino Borg (@gborg9) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia blocked my mailbox on 23rd .. numerous 30min phone calls later, and patronising responses, fake promises of call backs ... mailbox is still unavailable.. shockingly awful customer service .. disgusting.

  • agrayphoto Adam Gray (@agrayphoto) reported from Croydon, England

    The @virginmedia customer service can’t understand one simple request and problem, passing my housemate between pillar and post for hours on the phone and making broken promises. Seriously useless. Oh and the internet speed has been crap and not as advertised for months - avoid

  • aarongrantham aaron grantham (@aarongrantham) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia It’s working now, the point is that it wasn’t working when the women’s open was on yesterday with no warning or redirection. I tried to get help and was waiting 18 mins (timed). And by the way not the first time virgin randomly change the description or the channel.

  • FelicityJBee Felicity Bainbridge (@FelicityJBee) reported from Poplar, England

    Disgraceful customer service by @virginmedia - 15 min wait to discuss £20 increase in bill with no comms. RUDE staff ‘I don’t care if you want to leave’, immediate transfer and 15 more mins of music... APPALLED. #CustomerService #fail

  • scottyboy1973 Scott Brindley (@scottyboy1973) reported from Ilford, England

    @adelarks @GemMcK13 @virginmedia Just cancel your contract if you're not getting the service

  • flowergirl_lon Flower Girl London (@flowergirl_lon) reported from Croydon, England

    @Leearna6 @suz_rudnik @virginmedia Ofcom compensation is £8 a day for loss of service but they don’t pay it until service is back on... defo chase it up as it’s the law now not just a customer service / good will gesture. As soon as you are reconnected it should be applied to next bill.

  • mfelmi Dan King (@mfelmi) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia It was media. The call was finally answered after around 40 minutes. I wouldn’t mind if this was an isolated issue but I’ve had a number of problems with virgin media customer service (by phone) and looking online it seems that many other customers have experienced the same.

  • H_Turner78 Howard Turner (@H_Turner78) reported

    @virginmedia Down detector has been lit up like a light bulb for the area since Thursday, I'm not going to waste over an hour on hold to be told you have intermittent problems in the area and you're very sorry. You really do have a low opinion of your customers don't you.

  • jayneylou21 jayne whitehouse (@jayneylou21) reported

    @virginmedia If you send me a direct message I will send you my account number to look into - I would like to make an official complaint

  • NeilWil32810651 Neil Wilson (@NeilWil32810651) reported

    @virginmedia You need to make it easier for people to leave and join another provider , never again will I use virgin media

  • Gxzza Gaz (@Gxzza) reported

    @virginmedia last few days internet has been going on and off constantly not staying on for longer than 5 seconds? tried everything reset everything still not working

  • jennysweetie Jennifer West (@jennysweetie) reported

    @virginmedia I am absolutely disgusted with the service (or lack of) that I have received over the last few weeks. Completely disgraceful. Appalling company.

  • Lewishamdreamer Jason is on Mastodon 🏳️‍🌈🪷 (@Lewishamdreamer) reported

    @virginmedia Maybe you should. Why should I formally report a widespread problem you are unable to detect? It’s your network. Good grief. This happens every time and I guarantee it’ll take about 4 hours for your company to even notice (& longer to act).

  • gnixon88 Hands! Face! Space! *facepalm* (@gnixon88) reported

    @2xpressfreely @virginmedia DO NOT USE VIRGIN! Their service is appalling.

  • deano_0808 Dean O'Dell (@deano_0808) reported

    @bwianofnazaweth @virginmedia Honestly the customer service was terrible! I lost a days pay to be home for when they re-scheduled their original date.
