    @virginmedia afternoon. I’ve been on hold for 25 mins and when I finally got through the line went dead after security questions. My mum has been without her TV service for over a week. Last night an engineer was due by 6 o’clock and never showed. Another text stating the 26th

    Steve Lees (@measlewolf) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia I understand that your systems were down last night, which happens, but I’ve been on hold for 30 mins this morning. We have a text to say it’s resolved but it isn’t. I just need to speak to someone please.

    Adie Hughes (@AdieJAMster) reported from Swindon, England

    @virginmedia Internet has been down again for the whole night. When I spoke to you about the recent last 6 times it’s been down you said there was no issue! Looks like whole of UK was down now yet our bills go UP & UP & UP! #virginmedia

    Ronnie Harris (@redron1975) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia so what crap excuse u got today for us in the ws10 area? Internet down again. Honestly if you were a guard dog nothing would be safe. Even less reliable than the weather forecast.

  • measlewolf
    Steve Lees (@measlewolf) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia Yes, the fault dates back from the 25th August and hopefully a fix will be made tomorrow, if not an engineer is booked for next week. When I finally got through the team were very helpful

    @virginmedia Dear ‘RP,’ I find your tone unacceptable. I don’t care how many times you’ve had to repeat the statement; customers are paying for a service they’ve not been getting, so dial down your level of obnoxiousness please.

    @virginmedia Engineer visit happened last week and I was told I need a new cable fitting outside my property when I have said this to your fault Steen I have tried charging me £25 and now they are just sending out an engineer to look for problems yet again

    Andy (@a_Muss60) reported from Swindon, England

    @matt_hanson70 @virginmedia Intermittent for 2.5 days, Sunday always v poor the worst is 0.4mbs with a 250mbs supply. VM's script always saying reboot etc.. Funny though following reporting an issue a week ago I suddenly recorded 256mbs for an hour then it slowly drops to normal! First ever hitting supply.

    @virginmedia @WaynesWorld20_ How many areas have this 'intermittent' loss of service? O have it in DY6 too.

  • scbadham
    Scott badham (@scbadham) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia really disappointed in the service lately all it does is keep dropping. I’ve had no Internet services for the last hour again the fourth time this week and it’s still not working

  • tr0y1291
    Troy (@tr0y1291) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia the most unreliable service going! Sky should be rubbing their hands together knowing that this shower of **** is their main competition.

    @virginmedia Experiencing issues in your area there is a technician in the area but still doesn't explain why my routers fans go really loud and disconnected from everything I have to keep resetting to get it back to normal then on top get "issues in my area" like always

  • lvwlvs
    LVWLVS (@lvwlvs) reported from Cheslyn Hay, England

    @virginmedia Everything is running fine then my devices can’t connect. It takes me switching the router off at the wall and on again for the connection to reestablish itself. First world problems but it’s a pain when I’m working upstairs and the router is downstairs. And it should just work!

  • iPaulTweeting
    iPaulTweeting (@iPaulTweeting) reported

    @virginmedia your customer support is appalling. My bill has gone up from £127 to £350. The App it keeps telling me to use either says oops something has gone wrong or directs me to a bot that goes nowhere. Now I’m on the phone for over an hour with no indication as to whether they are going to answer

  • obbsie
    Chris Hobbs (@obbsie) reported

    @AEthelswin @virginmedia Ah. Thanks. Trying to speak to customer service. Been three hours now.

  • SteveSmith98
    Steve Smith (@SteveSmith98) reported

    Hi @virginmedia. Fault F012283434 started last Thursday and you're now saying you don't intend to fix it at all this week. Do you actually think it's OK for your customers to be unable to work for a week? Could you not even try to explain what's wrong and what you're doing?

  • bhoyjohn1888
    John Cameron (@bhoyjohn1888) reported

    For **** sake Virgin Media. Answer the goddam phone. 40mins and counting. Awful customer service. Crap

  • dougbowski
    Paul Douglass (@dougbowski) reported

    @virginmedia Why is dealing with your customer services such a pain? Contract renewal for broadband only - £84 nearly double. Get in touch, 3 different departs, offers from £77 down to £44 then up to £53 all for the same deal. I’m thinking I will just leave for @Vodafone

  • Boshek6
    Boshek (@Boshek6) reported

    @virginmedia after 19 years of flawless service. You have gone to **** in the last 2 months. Constant issues. Last contract with you. Once this one ends. I’m done with you. This is all it takes. I’ll never use virgin again for anything.

  • SteveSmith98
    Steve Smith (@SteveSmith98) reported

    @virginmedia Why? Why can't you just give a straight answer to a simple question? What is going on, what are you doing about it, and why does it take so long? If you want to provide "the most helpful and tailored support possible", stop waffling and answer the questions!
