Lately Virgin Media hasn’t been very good at all. I never used to have issues with it.

@virginmedia That would imply that I had faith in your services & belief that you cared about your customers. I know from the past that this is not the case. I have already checked and this problem is supposed to be fixed by 3pm, it has been ongoing since 8am. It really is tedious and boring

@foxinthebox2010 @virginmedia The £20, £15, £10 down to £5 smacked of desperation really! Just give me the bloody box. We’ve been with you long enough!!!!!

Virgin media - your automated service has a flaw, it just repeats the same message, ‘ no faults found’, when there is a fault, like my internet is giving 2Mb download right now

@virginmedia So only total loss of service allows me compensation,just 7 days of really awful service including customer services, when asked about compensation and I query the criteria,throw a ‘sorry I can’t hear you’... Now that’s really awful customer service 😡

@foxinthebox2010 @virginmedia You do have a point @foxinthebox2010 though because they were asking if customers would be willing to pay £20 one off fee, then £15, £10, £5...which implies they could afford to upgrade for free but just want to squeeze more money of out their customers. We’ve had awful service

@virginmedia Or maybe that’s wishful thinking. Anyway. We will be considering our options over the weekend and I don’t think we will be staying with VM. Bad service is too regular now

@Dianemiddleto @tankhead666 @virginmedia Thanks. I got the text hours after talking to Virgin Media on the phone to activate my hub after a house move. Never had it before. Something not right in their call centres.

@virginmedia When you are using your data in your own house so often, have Netflix, Now and Amazon Prime you pay for that you can’t even use when Broadband are down, you have to ask, what the HELL am I doing with a company that can’t provide a basic bloody service.

Hey @virginmedia you better offer me a better deal tomorrow or else I will be leaving. New customers are always treated better than existing. I know from experience with you guys that this never changes.

@foxinthebox2010 @virginmedia It was a customer insight survey sent to me by email. Gives you no chance to really voice your opinion as it’s just pushing the new box.

@sky_support We have the full Sky Sports package on our Virgin Media box. How much would the cost come down by us getting rid of the F1 channel as I prefer watching paint dry. If it's worth it the golf one could go the same way as I only watch the football and cricket ? Ta

@virginmedia From speaking to other people I know Virgin have done this previously - disconnect existing customers & give temp tel no then hassle for customer to get proper number back.

(@baggyjumpas) reported
@virginmedia Yrs ago - yes. But she has been with Virgin for few yrs. Virgin disconnected her. Virgin issued the temp no. I know that we don't need an engineer to come out. You just need to restore the correct tel no. Virgin tel customer service is extremely poor for residential customers.

@virginmedia Of course I have checked. You app says there is no problem at my address but Internet forums says you are having multiple issues in this area and all over the country.

(@AdaRoseCannon) reported
Did @virginmedia fire all of their support staff? It's literally impossible to speak to a real human anywhere and anytime it says it'll connect you to one it just hangs up instead after spending ages dealing with a machine.

(@KIC_Social) reported
@virginmedia @Ofcom Please don't apologise. I've had nothing but apologies and wrong bills for months. Instead do something about the systemic failures in your company's customer service. I'm never going to get the time back that I've wasted haggling in order to get the contract that was agreed.

@virginmedia No, it was not resolved at all, I ended up paying to have the phone fixed myself, I explained this to your team and they gave me €20 off the next bill, better than nothing I suppose, I wont be using Virgin Media again for a mobile phone service once this contract expires, thanks
