Dan Knowlton (@dknowlton1) reported from Acol, England😂 Twitter Automation gone wrong... Take a look at this @virginmedia thread for a great example of Twitter automation gone wrong. 🤖 Automation < Customer service 😀

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?!
-
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.

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

JannerJo 🦠💉💥 (@JoTreCanterbury) reported from Canterbury, England@tryingattimes @virginmedia 100% correct took ages to cancel my 80yo mum's service when my dad got vascular dementia. They sent me all sorts of patronising messages on here. All designed to extract money from vulnerable people. STEER WELL CLEAR!

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!!!

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.

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”.

Heaven And Hell (@heavenndhell666) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England@virginmedia Up to your services you make sure they are unemployed so available when your company makes errors. Needless to say the day my contract ends I leave

-
Ste (@SteT238) reported@virginmedia The first engineer cleared errors off the hub then requested the underground engineer to attend who then replaced the cable underground to the property. Our next door neighbour has also reported the same issue.
-
Lara Mitchard (@LaraMitchard) reported@virginmedia And what’s the estimated fix time?
-
Keith A Pearson (@keithapearson) reported@virginmedia Still waiting on your chat agent - to say he/she is incompetent would be the mother of all understatements. And yes, I've tried calling in the past, and that experience was so frustratingly pointless that I'm never trying again.
-
Emma ✞ 🦌 (@emmawhufc42) reportedI’m trying to cancel Netflix but now I have to call virgin media because it’s through them I’ll be back in six hours once I’m off the phone
-
London leaver (@ross_biagini) reported@virginmedia 2 Outages Identified & raised but 2nd one is not expected to be resolved until 3/6/26 @ 9.06 That will be at least 3 full days of outage
-
alexander jordan (@alexanderjordan) reported. @virginmedia network down since Tuesday. Entirely down Tuesday, intermittent Wednesday, down again today, you keep changing the status and then advise to wait 21 hours to book an engineer, that would mean earliest visit Monday provided you don’t change the status again.

Дж Б Б 65 (@Birkenhead1872) reported@virginmedia Your wifi is utter crap and doesn’t work Your customer service is a joke You are not fit for purpose
-
nikky linnane (@NLinnane) reportedIs Elaine Burke the only tech expert available in Ireland for tv ? She's never off virgin media and now she's on rte news. It would be great if we could have other view points not just one because they are connected to the right people.
-
Melody Lane-Hayman (@ScepturaMelody) reported@virginmedia I realise that could of been without your control but they are still available on sky so I should of gone with sky obviously never mind I found movie channels I didn’t even realise I had as they were below the already greyed out ones that were paid for channels
