  • CaryAWright Cary Wright (@CaryAWright) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia @Dan13lBurk3 I spoke to your customer service team who “guaranteed this fault would rectified by 21:25”. I explained the gravity as I needed to finish work for Xmas. They lied!! I’ve now got to drive to London and work through the night! Appalling!

  • jimmygreen83 James Green (@jimmygreen83) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia... broadband has been down all day and expected back at 5:25pm, still not working. Now, recheck the app and not expected back until 8am tomorrow! Seriously?! Why? What has happened? How can it be down for that long? Ridiculous, especially when people work from home.

  • nghudson Nigel Hudson (@nghudson) reported from Preston, England

    @Jess_Guth @virginmedia @virginmedia are the pits!!! Dreadful customer service and they’ve tried to charge us for a phone service we terminated 3 months ago!!! 👎🏻🤬

  • Jackd_cpfc Margate Jack (@Jackd_cpfc) reported from Margate, England

    @money4nuffin @virginmedia This is the 1st issue I’ve had with them in fairness and not happy with the way they are handling it. Other than screen shots of other peoples phones I’ve had no updates

  • als_adventures Al's Adventures (@als_adventures) reported from Chestfield, England

    @virginmedia He has a letter as a review. So we need to speak to someone to cancel it. He’s being charged each month according to this letter. Goodness knows how long for.

  • Dan13lBurk3 Daniel Burke (@Dan13lBurk3) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia I’m not a technician, can you guys just let me leave my contract after this. Terrible customer service, even worse service, waiting to join @EE but stuck in a contract that only seems to work one way. You really are a shambles.

  • CaryAWright Cary Wright (@CaryAWright) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia not had internet, for 24 hours. I spoke to customer services at 18:00 who “guaranteed it would be fixed by 21:25” I checked this 3 times as, at that point, I could arrange alternatives to finish work for Xmas. Now I can’t and still have no internet. Appalling!

  • rde42 Bob Eager Eur Ing #FBPE 🇪🇺 🇪🇺 🖤 #RejoinEU (@rde42) reported from Herne Bay, England

    @AgiBergman @JolyonMaugham @virginmedia They are both awful at customer service.

  • SamRSparrow Sam Sparrow (@SamRSparrow) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia Already done it and there is an outage in the area and now saying won’t be updated until 9.30pm? How am I supposed to work?

  • SamRSparrow Sam Sparrow 🇪🇺 (@SamRSparrow) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia The service status page hasn’t updated since 1pm. Everyone in the area has the internet down and yet I’m being told right now on the phone there is no problem. I had an engineer booked tomorrow and VM cancelled that and now can’t send one until Monday? Awful service.

  • SamRSparrow Sam Sparrow (@SamRSparrow) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia services in #Thanet have been off since 1am on the 23rd December and now you are pushing it back until 2pm today for a fix and still no engineer on site - that will be over 36 hours with zero updates to customers right before Christmas. What is happening?!

  • CaryAWright Cary Wright (@CaryAWright) reported from Margate, England

    @Dan13lBurk3 @virginmedia My neighbour has spoken to Customer Service too, who have informed him that it will not be fixed until the 28th!!!

  • CaryAWright Cary Wright (@CaryAWright) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia @Dan13lBurk3 I spoke to tour customer service team who “guaranteed this fault would rectified by 21:25”. I explained the gravity as I needed to finish work for Xmas. They lied!!

  • SamRSparrow Sam Sparrow 🇪🇺 (@SamRSparrow) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia I am extremely unhappy broadband been down since 1.15pm. Booked an engineer. This has been cancelled with no explanation. Can’t book another. Service status says it’s fine but many others online in CT10 says there is an area issue. First person on phone hung up.

  • D4nBu7ke Daniel Burke (@D4nBu7ke) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    I sent a email to @virginmedia on the 15th January, I was given the following Complaint reference: C-150121161 And promised contact within 28 days, by my counting it’s been 2 months.....

  • D4nBu7ke Daniel Burke (@D4nBu7ke) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia Nothing at all, I would like the complaint looked at today and I want a call or email. Not sms.

  • SamRSparrow Sam Sparrow 🇪🇺 (@SamRSparrow) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia Why would my page have no update since 1pm? I’m only getting updates via community Facebook page and my parents. My postcode is CT10 2SW. I would also like to know why my engineer visit was cancelled and how I make a complaint.

  • SamRSparrow Sam Sparrow (@SamRSparrow) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia I would suggest then that the service status should be updated to reflect that situation.

  • SamRSparrow Sam Sparrow (@SamRSparrow) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia service down in CT10 area, loads of people reporting this on social media etc but service status says it is fine. Can you please look into this ASAP?!

  • bobvoyage Bob Voyage (@bobvoyage) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia if you think I am going to be talking to my family over Christmas while my WiFi is down, you can think again. Get the engineer out here or I'm sending you shite in the post daily.

  • Kyliejwilkinson Kylie Wilkinson (@Kyliejwilkinson) reported

    @virginmedia I have had no internet all day! I work from home so tomorrow will be extremely interesting! Technician can only come out on Tuesday! Only had the service for over a week and already shocked at the service

  • pennilessarcade Simon (@pennilessarcade) reported

    @virginmedia no internet since storm last night. Received a text to say this was fixed but still nothing. Live status has been inconsistent all day: says no issue when logged in, but down when the same postcode entered and no account name. Can't work from home full time like this

  • NathanLFC1996 NB* (@NathanLFC1996) reported

    Never go with @virginmedia for internet. Connection goes down atleast once a day. Just done it again, 5 hours till fixed. Never get any compensation as they fix before 2 days every time but then it fails the next day. Joke

  • MillwallDolbs4 Dolbs (@MillwallDolbs4) reported

    @virginmedia Oh shut up talking ****, 4 days have gone by with you keep saying this and still no one can assist, help or advise, your service is the worst

  • BrianPelan Brian Pelan (@BrianPelan) reported

    @virginmedia What a lovely gesture. You charge me the full amount even though you didn’t provide a full service. I’m seriously impressed with the generosity of @virginmedia

  • Powell170 Carl Powell (@Powell170) reported

    @virginmedia right then, one very unhappy customer! I was under the impression that fiber broadband was the best and quickest you could have… have your 350mb deal and its ****!!! Had better connection and speeds with BT superfast broadband. How do I get out of your contract?

  • ebonyjay98 ebonyjay (@ebonyjay98) reported

  • arwenearnshaw Alison Luff (@arwenearnshaw) reported

    @virginmedia Says there’s a TV issue. Will be fixed by 7 June. TWO days 😡. Not good enough.

  • powerandrea 🌺 (@powerandrea) reported

    Re the J word and trending Twitter. After weeks of shutting down and resetting itself our @virginmedia box finally went properly on the blink Thursday evening gone. No technician available until Tuesday. Think we've had a very lucky escape.
