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?!

Heaven And Hell (@heavenndhell666) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England@virginmedia please can you advise me of your complaints number or email please do not tell me to call on 03454541111 as this number is a waste of time and effort but I would like to make a formal complaint with the view of terminating my contract due to your incompetent service

Sheradon Dublin (@sheradondublin) reported from Margate, EnglandHello @virginmedia, is there a way I can talk to someone about my WiFi problem this morning.
-
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!
-
Sheradon Dublin (@sheradondublin) reported from Margate, England@virginmedia It’s the same problem we always have with your WiFi, it’s patchy at best. Even when I’m standing next to the box

Bob Eager Eur Ing #FBPE 🇪🇺 🇪🇺 🖤 #RejoinEU (@rde42) reported from Herne Bay, England@AgiBergman @JolyonMaugham @virginmedia They are both awful at customer service.
-
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.
-
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!
-
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
-
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.
-
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.
-
Andy Nicoll (@andeenic) reported from Margate, EnglandThree formal complaints to @virginmedia and three promises of a returned call within 24 hours. 3 fails out of 3. At least your appalling service is consistent
-
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.
-
Sheradon Dublin (@sheradondublin) reported from Margate, EnglandMorning @virginmedia, I’m starting to become a little fed up with your current business model. You take my money, but supply a less than reliable WiFi service. Will it take a cancelled direct debit to get your attention? Please fix. 😡
-
Michael Smith (@revdmesmith) reported from Kingsdown, England****** @bt_uk been at my parents for past couple of days. Had to reset router every day at least twice. Broadband goes down regularly. Thank goodness we have @virginmedia at home!
-
bob mitchell (@bobmitchell82) reported from Margate, England@virginmedia I checked on the app and it says my account has finished . I’m not going to waste more of my time being left on hold when I have requested someone phone me back and been told 24-48 hours and still nothing. If only the customer service were as helpful as your Twitter team
-
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!!
