@virginmedia I need to speak to someone urgently about Virgin showing a missed payment on my credit history back in August 2018, when I cancelled my internet back in June 2018 (which was made incredibly difficult by poor customer service at the time)

@virginmedia If your internet service to St. Helens could be anything other than complete dogshit for more than five minutes that’d be swell. Since 7:30 this morning, constant outages of internet service. STILL happening at 16:00. Thanks (for nothing). Again.

@JacobAlderHam @virginmedia Shocking isn’t it mate, I’ve not been able to use streaming devices or gaming devices for a few weeks without constant spikes and buffering. I pay for 200 down and receive about 40... so much packet loss. Shambles.

@virginmedia also run tests. All came back fine. Significantly below minimum guaranteed speed. Average 20mbps. Disappointed that I was promised a call and never got it. Been on hold too long. Appalling service.

@vmbusiness at this current time working from home under so much stress and pressure the last thing you need is your broadband playing up. This is not acceptable we ate paying for a service which is currently nonexistent. Wifi goes down every 5 min. Please can you look into this

@virginmedia reported slow speeds on Sunday. Promised a call back between 2 and 4 hours. Not received. Not getting the minimum guaranteed broadband speed yet paying in full. Proving difficult to speak to anybody. You appear not to care. #poorcustomerservice

@virginmedia spoken to your “customer service”. Advised that promises for call back on live chat cannot be traced and nothing they could do. The call centre apparently has no record of live chat conversations. Advisor seemed to blame me! For a media company very poorly connected

@virginmedia Please do not apologise again as your sentiment is becoming diluted and feeling somewhat condescending. What exactly does "Will be along to assist as soon as possible" mean? A resolution? I have now spent a considerable amount of time and effort just to receive stock responses.

@virginmedia There are no known faults - we have tried rebooting and checking all connections. The box was only fitted on Friday (it is a replacement Samsung box). I have tried calling several times but the ‘lines are busy’! Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

@UswitchUK can you get me out of a deal with @virginmedia if I switch to a new broadband provider with you, I'm not happy that they can increase a price and have terrible customer service, yet I can't speak to them to resolve it because of Covid. No help, no price increase

Hey @bt_uk do you have space for a @virginmedia customer who is thinking of leaving? They hung up on me after an hour on the line and are hiking my bill up to £46.50 for only 35-45Mbps. 😭
