  • lorna_conway Doonie (@lorna_conway) reported from Redditch, England

    @virginmedia Friday I booked an engineer as the WiFi on our hub keeps dropping. At the same time I upgraded my package. This includes tech help. Since Friday I've had no WiFi. I tried website chat but got dropped I've tried calling but was waiting too long. I'm getting bored!

  • ChrisImms I.Am.Chris.Imms (@ChrisImms) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia any chance of some customer service? Installation booked for last Friday, engineer didn't show up... twice I've called and been hung up on. Complained via email, no response. Anyone want to tell me what's going on?

  • David_Preece David_Preece (@David_Preece) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Yet again my internet is down, just had half service for 2 months and it worked for 10 days now gone again... yet you still take full payment out my bank, I see this a theft...

  • Jod_69 Jo (@Jod_69) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Broadband down again today 4th time this week. Really will have to rethink providers

  • SteveA_3 Steve Arliss (@SteveA_3) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    This is the exact reason I use the web chat!! To ensure conversation is saved on screenshots! So far today @virginmedia have been completely useless! Want me to pay for a service I'm not getting and they dont know when I will be able to get again

  • Jod_69 Jo (@Jod_69) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia As per last message it says problem in area. It’s back working now (see time of initial mail). 4th time this week it’s been down for prolonged periods of time. Not good

  • TheRamblingElf Richard (@TheRamblingElf) reported from Birmingham, England

    @AksTailor @virginmedia When I had some issues like that I haggled a month or two of free Internet from Virgin until the issue was resolved. Convincing them to do that took an infuriating number of phone calls but it was a satisfactory outcome, I've stuck with them.

  • PhilCampbell_ Phil Campbell (@PhilCampbell_) reported from Willenhall, England

    @virginmedia Yes there's no issue on the checker. The connect app says it's fine except for a few times it's said the connection is poor. But 1mb some nights is ridiculous...

  • SteveA_3 Steve Arliss (@SteveA_3) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    And they expect me to be happy to wait until the 5th of december now? While still paying full price forbabaervice I cant use because they messed up @virginmedia seriously wtf!!

  • SteveA_3 Steve Arliss (@SteveA_3) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    And @virginmedia want me to pay if I decide instead of the uncertainty i want to cancel it and get someone like @SkyUK or @BT installed that can actually provide the service you pay them for

  • walsallmatt WalsallMatt #76TottersLane (@walsallmatt) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    DEAR VIRGIN MEDIA! SORT YOUR **** OUT YOU BUNCH OF TOSS RAGS!!!!

  • stumccullagh Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Solihull, England

    Only 3 months until i can get rid of @virginmedia awful internet even worse customer service!

  • cybilrat Jennie O (@cybilrat) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    In these times where working at home essential @virginmedia one week before anyone can fix my internet which was fine before your maintenance

  • lorna_conway Doonie (@lorna_conway) reported from Redditch, England

    @virginmedia It's not an issues according to the site. It's working on wired connections. I'll be looking for compensation after this. If the costomer tells you there's a problem then take their word they're the ones paying you, why would they spend money other than to get what they pay for.

  • PhilCampbell_ Phil Campbell (@PhilCampbell_) reported from Willenhall, England

    @virginmedia Not gonna keep calling. I also won't be paying for a service you guys can't be bothered to give me.

  • PhilCampbell_ Phil Campbell (@PhilCampbell_) reported from Willenhall, England

    @virginmedia Still having issues. Was on hold for 1 hour 20 yesterday too and also got cut off...😑

  • K45TRO EA (@K45TRO) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia why is your broadband so awful?

  • Neil_Churchard Neil Churchard (@Neil_Churchard) reported from Solihull, England

    Wow just had the worst customer service from @virginmedia can’t say I’ll be staying a loyal customer at this rate 😤

  • mraymond68 Mark (@mraymond68) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia I have spent over 3 hours on the phone to you trying to get my broadband sorted and SIMON decides to cut me off!! Great customer service!! 😡

  • Jod_69 Jo (@Jod_69) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Yep just says problem in my area. Not helpful and is getting to be a pain tbh

  • RF34303722 RF (@RF34303722) reported

    @virginmedia Working at home and Virgin router keeps cutting out every 2 hours. I've rebooted, reset hub and reconnected multiple times. I've called customer service twice for over an hour. No help whatsoever. Loose promise that technical team will investigate within 7 days!!

  • interaction0410 Clive McCarthy🇪🇺 (@interaction0410) reported

    @virginmedia Basically you need to list the postcode areas that are currently down and give an estimated time for repairs, your support teams do not have a clue what is going on in the UK they asked me where I was looking on the website

  • Kasimy91 HK 🇱🇧 (@Kasimy91) reported

    @naimrahman73 @virginmedia That was my bet and thats an expensive fix but just tell me instead of not saying anything

  • VikRobins Vicky Jones (Robins) (@VikRobins) reported

    @virginmedia We seem to be getting more faults than ever in our area, its not ideal when half our Development are WFH and are relying on the same service provided by Virgin.

  • Huriye Huriye (@Huriye) reported

    So @virginmedia changed their PAYG policies without informing those of us who use it. I didn't use my balance within 180 days so they suspended my account, deleted my number and my phone can no longer make calls. After half an hour with a so called Customer Services operator,

  • 1192tom Tom Campbell (@1192tom) reported

    @jon_denby @virginmedia Honestly as soon as the engineer left the door I put my router in modem mode and for a 3rd party one. No issues yet.

  • ChaseMbbsMbchb bilbo (@ChaseMbbsMbchb) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve had to call my service users today to tell them I’ll now video call them on Saturday - my only day off this week because I can’t today and I can’t use a coffee shop or be elsewhere because of patient co-ordinator confidentiality. Back up network solves the issue

  • weggieg64 Wendy grainger (@weggieg64) reported

    @virginmedia It's ok, I don't want anything done about it, just thought they would have realised there were already problems in the area.

  • Huriye Huriye (@Huriye) reported

    she wasn't even going to send me a new Sim, and said I'd have to start a new account online then request one, till I kicked off and she transferred me to Sales and a nicer operator who really tried to help. But I reached the conclusion, @virginmedia doesn't want me as a customer

  • StuartMetcalfe2 Stuart Metcalfe (@StuartMetcalfe2) reported

    @virginmedia Why not? If they won't call me I will call them. You lot are a load of rubbish and give the worst possible service imaginable. Can you 100% assure me someone will call me today? I've been waiting since Saturday?
