  • Johnty14 John Richards (@Johnty14) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia next to useless support over the last 2 days trying to explain to your technical department what packet loss is! In the 40 mins it takes, the packet loss and speed has gone back to normal.

  • lissaburns Melissa Burns (@lissaburns) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia down in #Basingstoke RG21 - call to find out its out between 10am and 3pm due to network improvements. Surely such a significant outage he should come with prior warning - how to damage #CX ! Could have been a great #CX if communicated well...

  • amy_woodliffe amy woodliffe (@amy_woodliffe) reported from Newbury, England

    @DaddyHoggy @virginmedia This is terrible!!!

  • Gazimoff Gareth “Gazimoff” Harmer (@Gazimoff) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia That’s right. We’d moved house and we’re hoping to keep you with us, but there’s been over a month of delays (issues with current cable). I need it for work, so I’ve been forced to cancel and organise alternatives.

  • Chloe1seymour Chloe (@Chloe1seymour) reported from Basingstoke, England

    Trust @virginmedia to go down🤬

  • pBullox Paul Bullock (@pBullox) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia No real explanation, just he can’t do it today. I was surprised he already knew of the problem but didn’t stop his installer coming. I spoke to lots of folks today when I called, no one could give me an idea.

  • Johnty14 John Richards (@Johnty14) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia I’m having issues with my broadband starting & stopping every 10 mins or so, packet loss too. I’m in the RG21 area but the website says no known issues!

  • pBullox Paul Bullock (@pBullox) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia moved house today, supposed to have been reconnected but you have a problem you knew about for days. Arrive and tell me not today mate! I’ve gotta go get data from #Vodafone now. After 20 years, it’s like my wife leaving.

  • 16_bit_boy T 🎮 (@16_bit_boy) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Already checked that, no issues apparently..

  • pBullox Paul Bullock (@pBullox) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia moved house today supposed to have been reconnected. You have a problem, known about for days but arrive and say not today mate! I gotta go to Vodafone now for data. After 20 years, it’s like my wife left me...

    @virginmedia I’ve called 789 four times over the past two days and have been on hold for 20 minutes EACH time just to give you my PAC code 😭 talk about bad first impressions

  • i96jms Jane (@i96jms) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia If you forgot your pin your bank would send a replacement through the post. Please arrange for a way to cancel this account that does not cause further distress.

  • SparkleEyedGirl Nicola (@SparkleEyedGirl) reported from Newbury, England

    @virginmedia I have a security issue with my router, I cannot login in or change password as somebody else is logged in. I have tried repeatedly over the last few days to contact you. We have 2 vulnerable adults in the house and need to sort this ASAP!

  • Hello_HWC The HWC (@Hello_HWC) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Slow speed Constantly dropping service Not able to connect devices, TV and computers To be fair your engineer was the best bit! The rest was an absolute shambles. It’s all in a complaint I have through on your website to the resolution team...

  • sweetieasd anniet (@sweetieasd) reported

    @virginmedia It’s more of the insult that you have given such bad service both on the phone and technically and then have the sodding cheek to up my bill

  • steveblake13 Steve Blake Ⓥ (@steveblake13) reported

    @virginmedia Technically no fault to service because I improvised a cover out of card and duck tape to protect the interior from further vandalization and rain/weather damage. Basically you are saying I should of waited to lose my service then. Nevermind, there are other service providers.

  • CoachZen Andy Rowlands 💙 (@CoachZen) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks tried that number and they confirm the outage is still ongoing till at least 20:10. Is it possible that when it's restored they can keep those Indian spam centre calls blocked but allow other calls through. It's been nice not having any time wasting calls for a month.

  • RokerPark150705 Andy McGuire (@RokerPark150705) reported

    @skytv Hello can you tell me the cause of the persistet signal problems on @SkyFootball and Sky Sports Main Event channels and explain why it's happening repeatedly recently? And what are you doing to fix the problem?? - Extremely angry @virginmedia customer 😡

  • spudhead1979 Keith Miles (@spudhead1979) reported

    So @virginmedia call me with an amazing offer of a big price increase, and they'll throw in products I don't want. And when I start asking questions, they hang up on me. Top customer service.

  • rogerpsan Red Roger LFC #JFT97 Legacy fan and proud! (@rogerpsan) reported

    Once again @virginmedia how can my long term customer status with you result in my "exclusive benefits and discounts" mean I end up paying more for the same package I already have, whilst a new customer will pay £19 a month less than I currently pay. Customer service my arse

  • Khybarstani_ Scoobster (@Khybarstani_) reported

    @virginmedia Do you have an outage in E4 8SA area? Not been working since 4 days and your tech support is useless

  • Khybarstani_ Scoobster (@Khybarstani_) reported

    @virginmedia when will the official notification for price increases be sent out to customers?? I will be cancelling everything as the service is ****

  • _AshWilliams83 Ash Williams (@_AshWilliams83) reported

    @virginmedia When I worked in the complaints team for the virgin ADSL side we never treated any customers with contempt like this. If we agreed something to retain a customer it was honoured.

  • SusieNics Sue N (@SusieNics) reported

    @virginmedia shocking service this morning when trying to cancel an 82 yr old package who is moving into a nursing home - passed from pillar to post and then cut off!!! This is a stressful time for all I loved and you are making it harder!
