@virginmedia Come on guys. Can you at least let me watch the MotoGP on BT sport 2? I’m pretty sure I have the rights to watch it since I watched it yesterday no problem

@virginmedia I’ve re-run the tests and still recommending I get a booster but still no idea how I go about ordering one. Can someone help rather than me going around in circles again please?

@virginmedia Thanks. The text service doesn’t work well to say the least. How do I post a question on the community to get an order placed please?

@virginmedia The service keep cutting out. And having to reboot 3/4 times a week. If no one comes and fix the fault. I will cancel everything and go to the ombudsman to claim back all the money paid for a fully working service.

@virginmedia Sorry, I don’t understand how posting on a forum will get me in contact with someone who can help me. The customer service isn’t good enough.

@virginmedia Forget it. Totally useless all round. Absolutely the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. What’s the point having a social media team?!

@virginmedia What’s the point they seem unable to help and disconnected the call twice! Absolutely hopeless service

@virginmedia The text service is a bot so doesn’t understand what I want. I don’t understand how posting on a community forum will help me order wifi pods. I’ve posted but just get replies from other members. I want to be able to contact someone at Virgin not other customers.

@virginmedia Have done it both ways. It isn’t just the speed it is dropping out completely for long periods of time and the staff in your call centres are if no help unless you want to buy a new service and you do not get promised calls back.

@virginmedia I just never get anywhere, constantly going around in circles and no one seems capable or willing to help. The broadband kit provided isn’t fit for purpose considering how much I pay for it.

@virginmedia Horrific broadband speeds, and even worse customer experience, being passed from pillar to post, continually repeating security questions, going through the story each time and being disconnected thrice in one day, without a single courtesy call back. No worries, BT’s gain

@virginmedia I know I recently extended my broadband contract with you but the service is abysmal and the customer service even worse. Can I cancel please and I will go back to Sky.

@virginmedia constant problems with broadband over past few weeks, still not up to 500mb speed I should be. Calls to your call centre are pointless and no promised calls back received!

@virginmedia appalling treatment of existing customers. Price increases, poor products, no help and calling customers liars. Would avoid unless you want prices to keep going up and up.

@virginmedia "the best way to get in touch is to call us", but that doesn't mean they'll ever answer, even after an hour of waiting on hold they will just hang up on you.

@virginmedia @raiden Virgin Media broadband service is down again for third work day in a row. Automated phone system says an "outage in your area" but website says all fine. Then phone system hangs up without ability to talk to support. Dreadful. #westhampstead #NW6 #virginmedia

got an urgent email from @virginmedia ; trying to contact via the 0345 454 1111 number as requested but lines are shut for second day running? Online chat has had me on hold for hours. Really poor. How can I contact customer service asap?!

@birchplease @virginmedia Exactly the same with my lack of service. Shocking that a company is allowed to be run like this and regularly increases their charges.

@virginmedia Yes. Run the diagnostic checks. Power cycled, the lot. I'm currently getting 67 on a 200 line. I know people are wfh/home schooling but it should not be taking down the network this badly. Catch up tv in the evening is buffering like mad.

@virginmedia @virginmedia As I said in my previous tweets, I have already made nine phone calls to #VirginMedia over the past week, and have spent over seven hours on the phone in total, but the issue has still not been resolved. What do you suggest I do next?

@virginmedia you are quick enough sending my mother a bill, pity you keep ignoring her issues with having no tv picture. Yes, we have turned it off and on, yes we have had a new (reconditioned) box, and yes we have bought her a new tv! No we don't appreciate being on the phone
