  • SimonBonds007 Simon Bonds (@SimonBonds007) reported from Telford and Wrekin, England

    @virginmedia any reason why it’s taking you 4 hours to fix a problem in our area. This is the service you expect us as existing customers to pay through the nose for. But when we ring up and complain you say your deals are for new customers only!

  • ces12fielder Dave CES Fielder (@ces12fielder) reported from Telford and Wrekin, England

    @charleeanns @virginmedia @SkyUK Both as bad as each other , look after new customers but not the old , same as phone companies

  • GrumpyXMatelot Captain Buzzkill RN (@GrumpyXMatelot) reported from Telford and Wrekin, England

    @virginmedia Tbh the 5 minutes of dead air before I put the phone down on your colleague who was "just seeing what she could do" didn't help your cause much

  • Kerry777 Kerry (@Kerry777) reported from Newport, England

    Come home after a long week at work. Hoping to enjoy some tv but no. @virginmedia playing up once again. Apparently it will be resolved by Monday despite their pre-recorded message saying the problem was fixed at 15:00 hrs! #really #greatservicenot

  • philip_osborne Philip Osborne (@philip_osborne) reported from Telford and Wrekin, England

    @virginmedia 1/2 It’s with all devices, we’ve tried everything, we’ve reset, we’ve turned everything off and on again, we’ve switched from 5ghz to 2.4ghz and back again … it’s … just … so … slow! 😫😫😫 And I don’t get why we should need to be IT experts to get a good service …

  • GrumpyXMatelot Captain Buzzkill RN (@GrumpyXMatelot) reported from Telford and Wrekin, England

    @virginmedia 40 minutes and I finally get to talk to someone before being put on hold again as I'm bringing transfered because that person from @virginmedia can't help despite going through a multi choice option list that be part of the Turing test

  • Appolotech Dave Stone (@Appolotech) reported from Telford and Wrekin, England

    Just had my first bill from @TalkTalk, from whom I get the broadband speed I pay for, whereas with @virginmedia I got half what I paid for at twice the price. Should’ve switched in any of those 15 years I was a loyal customer getting terrible customer service!

  • _jwynny James (@_jwynny) reported from Newport, England

    Virgin media need to go bust after tonight’s showing, just got to the good bit in who dares wins and it goes down for the millionth time today

  • DonWalker124 Don walker🇬🇭🇬🇧 (@DonWalker124) reported from Telford and Wrekin, England

    @virginmedia Exactly the same thing they keep telling me whenever I called them so if you truly want to help kinda send someone to come & have a look. Tf3 2LD.

  • Kerry777 Kerry (@Kerry777) reported from Newport, England

    @virginmedia poor service! Second time calling in a week! Slow service and bad reception! For the money you pay it’s not acceptable. Time to look ok for a new service provider!

  • philip_osborne Philip Osborne (@philip_osborne) reported from Telford and Wrekin, England

    @virginmedia Nothing listed on the service status page.

  • SimonBonds007 Simon Bonds (@SimonBonds007) reported from Telford and Wrekin, England

    @virginmedia Update says 6:30pm. It has been down since 2pm. No updates via text or email. Very disappointed.

  • Kerry777 Kerry (@Kerry777) reported from Newport, England

    @virginmedia I give up! Time to look for another service provider who cares about their customers!

  • GrumpyXMatelot Captain Buzzkill RN (@GrumpyXMatelot) reported from Telford and Wrekin, England

    @virginmedia 35 minutes trying to talk to someone and nearly two hours from your how can I help tweet. No wonder I'm leaving

  • VickersDavid David Vickers (@VickersDavid) reported from Acton, England

    @virginmedia Help !!! How do I cancel my contract? On line it says to ring you and when you ring it says to go on line. If I call to try and speak to anyone at all, there is simply no answer, no matter how long you hold for. #stuck #customerservice? @richardbranson @MartinSLewis

  • khnatter Kate (@khnatter) reported from Newport, England

    @virginmedia Down again in Newport , Shropshire ! Trying to work 🙄

  • khnatter Kate (@khnatter) reported from Newport, England

    @virginmedia Trouble is as I explained, it’s rented accommodation and the rental company have the login and password info and are closed all weekend. Making studying impossible 😠

  • Appolotech Dave Stone (@Appolotech) reported from Telford and Wrekin, England

    @ObsessiveJohn @virginmedia They don’t have any competitors for speed, but that means customer service is complacent. The strongest guarantee with them is that you will not get the speed you pay for during peak times (evenings and weekends), and they won’t care!

    @virginmedia All mail has been either ignored or responded to with no suitable advice for my issue. Telephone - no help. I'm not talking about hanging up after 5 or 10 minutes. Even well over an hour of waiting doesn't help. Twitter - no help. It goes in One Month (19/02/2021). Court it is.

    @virginmedia your phone lines dont work, the people on the other end of live chathave taken 3 hours to help me out, still not sorted. I just had one person cancel my premium sports subscription without my consent and pass me off to another department who will take another 3 hours

  • TheLondonTaxiTr The London Taxt Trasnsport Co (@TheLondonTaxiTr) reported

    @virginmedia can you explain your one gig broad band is slower than the 350mb and is more expensive a@d to try to get help with this new router is like trying to get hold of lord lucan. Maybe I should just stop paying and see if you contact me
