    @virginmedia Just when I thought you'd fixed it, it goes wrong.....was working fine during the day. Busy times your service is shocking. I've now got the same message.... insufficient bandwidth.

    @virginmedia Have tried 3 more times to get through with the same outcome. Paying a lot of money for no service and no customer service!

    Not happy with Virgin Media at the moment. No WiFi since Saturday. Tried calling and got nowhere as the call centre is closed. Don't need this during self isolation. Does anyone else have this problem. Not good enough Virgin Media.

    @MartinDaubney @virginmedia I've heard negative stories.about them downhere. Again around service. Dread to think what will happen with Flybe, if Virgin supply shoddy service.

    @virginmedia I had my WiFi and phone installed back in June , the box outside my house was broken so your engineer connected to my next door neighbour, and was told it would only be for a week , I have phoned numerous times and just get ignored . Atrocious service!

    AJ Merron (@AJMerron_writes) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia Apparently there’s some form of outage on the network as a whole. I can’t get any clear answers from the @TravelodgeUK Wi-Fi help line. The network just seems to be refusing to connect logged in devices. I’m here for one night and requested money back for Wi-Fi to no avail.

  • AJMerron_writes
    AJ Merron (@AJMerron_writes) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @TravelodgeUK Wi-Fi, provided by @virginmedia not only has ripped me off but their customer support team are apparently away all weekend. This is obviously a scam.

  • gjp12775
    Graham Palmer (@gjp12775) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @MartinDaubney @virginmedia I would be going to an Ombudsmen. Shocking service. I'm with Sky, really great service.

  • AmberDowning
    Amber Downing (@AmberDowning) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    Get @SkyUK @SkyHelpTeam they said, they are good, finish with @virginmedia. So why does the internet go down at midnight every night? Sky?

    @virginmedia I am very angry at the service I received today on the phone trying to sort out my new house. I need more help.

    @BoostTorbay @AndrewBrazier1 Never used the first two options. Very much old school. None of the fancy pants Sky or Virgin Media either. Just plain old Freeview for me

    John Sabian (@GymItalian83) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia I think most companies have rubbish customer service. Only good thing about Virgin is their broadband is decent

  • g_hannam
    Graham (@g_hannam) reported

    @virginmedia How am I supposed to contact you? You don't answer the telephone, the link to live chat doesn't work and there's no email address. I need to discuss a recent communication from you

  • IAmMattVC
    Matt Valentine-Chase (@IAmMattVC) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia I had a similar issue with plusnet and open reach, still waiting for the fibre to be fitted. I think it's the beginning of the end for this level of poor service, people have had enough.

  • Monapics
    Monapics.com (@Monapics) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia They have been fined by the mediator in my case but still have not fixed a simple email issue. They have now been pulled up again to get it sorted from last year. Dealing with the Indian call centres have had no progress there, and only one person spoke understandable English

  • TessaOutlook
    TessaRestoreBritain🇬🇧🇮🇪 (@TessaOutlook) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia You should speak to @dshensmith about this, he's had some issues himself with these companies but to do with phones. He might be able to give some advice obviously not legal or watch his videos if you haven't very good information in them

  • Bowtomephil
    Phil (@Bowtomephil) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Some are great some are not. I had an issue told them what I thought it was as it happened before. One guy said its not that, came three times, changed modems, cables connectors etc. I told them don't send him , they sent a new guy listened to what I said, fixed what I said.
