    @virginmedia you are an absolute shambles and that’s me being polite .... countless amounts of calls, hours on end of holding on the line and trying to resolve a very simple issue and it is STILL not resolved ..I am beyond frustrated now and will never ever use you again

  • paulparker81 Paul Parker (@paulparker81) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia experiencing the worst customer service I have ever had. Been a customer for 10+ years but not after today @SkyUK will be gaining another customer instead

  • NickLovell_ Nick Lovell (@NickLovell_) reported from London, England

    @ThreeUK absolutely fed up of the abysmal service I get with my broadband. It simply doesn’t work. Was promised a speed in the store, ive never even got half. Constantly dropping out. Time to change back to @virginmedia

  • dietmarlen Dietmar Lenden #FBPE (@dietmarlen) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia mmm. Apparently because 10 flats are not working at the same time it is not a fault on your side but each one of us has the same issue by chance as your sys say all is good. Well all is not good and we have to wait till Monday for an engineer (all of us) area 22

  • LiisaJane LiisaJane'x (@LiisaJane) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia @nickgooner80 I wanna know why my broadband has been all day! I do not want to be paying for a service I cannot use!!!!!! 🤬🤬 I have a bored 6 year old. SORT IT OUT!!! And I can’t check my service status as I can’t access the internet even on my 4G or the virgin media app.

  • dietmarlen Dietmar Lenden #FBPE (@dietmarlen) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia This issue is now appalling. Now I will not have internet connectivity for at least 3 days. That is unacceptable and I will have to wait until a new router arrives which is shocking

  • tmacbond Tmak (@tmacbond) reported from Wickford, England

    @1KolaAdebisi @virginmedia @Ofcom @Ofcom Your intervention is really needed here because @virginmedia has really failed in their dispensing of service #ShabbyServices

  • thebooooooth Mark Booth (@thebooooooth) reported from Basildon, England

    Problems with @virginmedia continue. Now the wifi is down and no streaming tonight! #shouldnothaveleftsky #FirstWorldProblems

  • NickLovell_ Nick Lovell (@NickLovell_) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia new broadband install today, was working fine now nothing. Your website won’t allow me to set up my account to check local service. Im an ex virgin engineer so know what to do and check. No Down or upstream signals. Same for neighbours. Get this sorted immediately

  • dietmarlen Dietmar Lenden #FBPE (@dietmarlen) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia is down again for our entire block and the CS line is still closed. 3 weeks in a row. No status update and same issue. Not looking good here

  • RogerCole10135 roger cole (@RogerCole10135) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia we done that, all connections are in to the box, your company network thinks that we are connected via router this not so, but has a cable run into the house.

  • RogerCole10135 roger cole (@RogerCole10135) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia reply to your tweet “NO” my wife pays a lot of money to your company for a poor service.

  • Corey_XOTWOD Corey (@Corey_XOTWOD) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia your internet service is so bad, feels like my entire internet connection at home got put in a spliff...sort it out...

  • tmacbond Tmak (@tmacbond) reported from Wickford, England

    This is unacceptable @virginmedia your services especially the customer services despite endless promises still not done #ShabbyServices

  • Corey_XOTWOD Corey (@Corey_XOTWOD) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia your internet service is ******* ****, sort it outttt

  • NickLovell_ Nick Lovell (@NickLovell_) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia so my services, since being installed have not worked more than they have worked. As first impressions go this is very bad. If this isn’t fixed by this afternoon I will cancel my services as im still within 14 days cooling period.

  • CookieWFC86 Jon Kirk (@CookieWFC86) reported

    @virginmedia Yes have ordered both but that’s going to mean yet more days with with no service, just seems weird for both to go at the same time

  • enkeli85 Clare Old (@enkeli85) reported

    @virginmedia I tweeted this 31 minutes ago so still clearly not working.

  • DarrenLingard Darren Lingard (@DarrenLingard) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve just measured it again and the spear is back up to 343meg. The ping is quick again. When the WiFi is slow the ping is also very poor along with the jitter.

  • Rustique_Maison Teresa Steele (@Rustique_Maison) reported

    @virginmedia I was told, also when trying to register my mobile it shows, wierd I know! I had p/word resent to try to change that way. No joy. I can only get through to offshore call centres who are so rude! I tried to call original salesman, I get, I’ll call you back! So not interested

  • cdrider1 Craig (@cdrider1) reported

    @virginmedia I don’t have a virgin landline. Why not at least give another option rather than assuming? This is not good customer service.

  • sh33ran7 Ant sheeran (@sh33ran7) reported

    @virginmedia Over the phone and yes got a text to confirm an engineer would be at mine between 4-7pm yesterday. This issue has been going on for nearly 3 weeks and an engineer couldn’t be bothered to show up and fix the problem

  • JoJagiello Joanna Jagiello (@JoJagiello) reported

    @virginmedia So in the mean time no one bothers to actually fix my problem? Pathetic.

  • MargeDacre Marge Dacre (@MargeDacre) reported

    @virginmedia I have already done this a few times. Every time I call for help I am told there is a 'localised problem' that aims to be fixed by 23/11 ... though generally I just get an automated response

  • SGHarber46 @sourcingstewart (@SGHarber46) reported

    @CookieWFC86 @virginmedia Jon virgin are really bad I would suggest move to another supplier, we have been a customer for 3 weeks and have unnecessary drilled holes in our newly painted walls and no one has called to rectify also internet goes down every day and we are meant to have 516 mb

  • tiberti_g gtTest123456789 (@tiberti_g) reported

    @virginmedia Tried them all. Ms Teams will work intermittently while doing calls and video calls. As people are forced to work from home this is an essential service to be offered while I have to try and cope tethering from my phone, while paying for your useless service
