  • robchippyman Rob Chipman (@robchippyman) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Tilton247 @virginmedia I had the same for 2 years. Constantly disconnecting on a daily basis . Changed the Hub and it worked straight away. No issues since. Good luck getting a new hub off them though.

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

    All TV boxes playing up , had issues for a couple of days now can’t get through on phones is there any issues in B37 area ? @virginmedia also I’ve been waiting nearly 2 years for my wifi booster

  • BrianMCape Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Another fail. I've reached out in exasperation since my chase-ups of 14th, 19th and today have been ignored. As have my 5 messages to your local rep who promised to be on hand. If you can't be bothered to help me, I'll just escalate via another route @richardbranson

  • LynneMasters LynneMUFC#22#44 (@LynneMasters) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia why is the Sky Sports red button not working

  • EvanD Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve done that. My connection drops out for a minute or so every 30-60 mins. Hard to replicate. My account has notes regarding the reason why the credit was given last time. Ideally I don’t want to wait so long for the same issue to be fixed.

  • BrianMCape Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia No. Already done it about 7 times without any luck. I refuse to waste more hours in queues, only to rehash my issues to another anonymous operator. I've been assured that this is in the hands of a named handler, who didn't call me back as promised and is ignoring my emails. Fail

  • kolapoagunbiade TheBosz (@kolapoagunbiade) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately, you dont have a ticketing system or cobtact email to track issues, rather a phone system that requires you to wait forever to get through to an agent. A/c number: 095063606. I was charged x2.5 of what i was tp pay.

  • Phil_Bonna Bonna (@Phil_Bonna) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Angela_Griffin @virginmedia I have the fibre optic broadband for £23.95 month and the customer service is great

  • jordyanslow1 jordy (@jordyanslow1) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia any chance of an update regarding the outage in my local area regarding internet connection? It’s been down 2 days straight!

  • EvanD Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Just called your offshore call centre regarding my internet connection. I’m having the same issues as I had when I got a £154 credit from you. /1

  • F1Dweeb Hamps (@F1Dweeb) reported from Redditch, England

    Broadband not working folks and your site keeps crashing on 4g @virginmedia

  • frugalista1 Frugalista (@frugalista1) reported from Dorridge, England

    @virginmedia Typical Virgin Media response. Passing me on. Not actually solving the problem. I will never come back to @virginmedia and will advise all my friends never to think of using you.

  • jenkin99 jen (@jenkin99) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia We had issuse with our service, and was told we would need new cables. We the new cables installed. They left cabels hanging in the garden which has since been removed. Our grass is ruined (I have photos) it looks like next doors cable are also under or grass????

  • BrianMCape Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia Just to let you know, I've taken the time to write out another complaint via the link. I've submitted and it says 'nothing to see here'. The link says response within 7 days, and the submission says 28 days, and then my portal says I haven't raised a complaint. ANOTHER FAIL

  • Stephen12857059 Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Nobody has called me and the WhatsApp chat is very frustrating and not dealing with the issue. This is very simple, I was sent contract paperwork with an agreed monthly fee of £86.75. Why have I paid two months of excessively higher payments. I should have left VM

  • EvanD Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia 2/ Despite that issue being due to a junction connection in the cabinet in the street, the op seems to refuse to look at that and just wants to reboot my router. Also claims it is due to my use of Modem Mode. Is there anyone in the UK I can contact regarding this?

  • Stephen12857059 Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I called 150 today to speak to a Supervisor regarding my bill. I was told I would receive a call within the hour. NOTHING. I agreed a contract 18/8/22 and the last two payments have been £65 & £75 more than agreed. This is shocking customer care and service.

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

    The problem in my area B37 has been happening for over a week can’t watch any TV now @virginmedia over £100 a month!! Plus I’ve been waiting 2 years for an internet booster

  • DeanCondliffe dean condliffe 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@DeanCondliffe) reported from Birmingham, England

  • allmark_jd JDAllmark (@allmark_jd) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve got the full tv, phone and broadband package, but like many people can’t justify paying for it with price increases everywhere. All I wanted to do is drop down to a broadband only deal, but as we have had constant issues with our router, would like a new router.

  • sajashaw78 Sarah (@sajashaw78) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks, I've done everything recommended ans it's still as poor. It's constantly buffering and is so frustrating.

  • amyjeffery80 Amy Georgie (@amyjeffery80) reported

  • cxfredwilko Fred Wilkinson (@cxfredwilko) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks John, my Netflix App is just not loading. Keeps on Trying to load and never does?

  • chezza54256 Chez (@chezza54256) reported

    @virginmedia So much so that I went into the office today so I could actually get some work done, I would advise your customer service team to party less and actually do their job.

  • amyjeffery80 Amy Georgie (@amyjeffery80) reported

    @virginmedia trying to cancel service all day. in queue on WhatsApp since 11.43am. on hold for an hour and disconnected. You finally answered I talk to lady 1 and explain she puts me thru to man 1 i explain he puts me thru to man 2 who ask the same questions and then cuts me off.

  • hoopy91 Steven Gibson (@hoopy91) reported

    @virginmedia Are you able to confirm for me that my IP address is dynamic or static? Disney+ help centre asked me to reset the Hub again expecting it to show a new IP address but it came back with the same one.

  • JamieJay73 JamieJ 🐙 (@JamieJay73) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply. I ended up using the WhatsApp function and was eventually put through to Jake in Customer Relations - he was awesome. Renewed package at same rate we're in now. Long term customer happy. 😎👍
