  • licklemouse Stuart Cockerill (@licklemouse) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia tremendous service had problems with my tv service for 3 weeks now which you still haven’t sorted and now you put my bill up and to try and sort it all out I’ve now been on hold for an hour shocking

  • thephdrunner Dr Emma Neachell (@thephdrunner) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Cee_langie8852 @virginmedia Yes, they are useless. No service most of yesterday and as of 0530 this morning, no service again. I’ve spent hours waiting to get through to the technical team. It’s time @ofcom got involved.

  • thephdrunner Dr Emma Neachell (@thephdrunner) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia B744LG my neighbour is also having issues. Internet keeps dropping out so there’s clearly some sort of intermittent fault. I’ve wasted 45 mins on the phone trying to report it.

  • acroline Caroline Durbin (@acroline) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia utterly appalling customer service once again. 15 minutes on hold to cancel a contract miss-sold to me.

  • gorman_wba Liam O'Gorman (@gorman_wba) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia Your an absolute joke of a company, you charge me £50 a month for broadband and it hasn’t worked for the last 2 months, 4 people in our street have the same problem but yet when an engineer comes out they claim they’ve fixed it when they havent,sort it out,disgrace.

  • scgough §↯mØn (@scgough) reported from Birmingham, England

    Anyone else experiencing DNS issues for certain sites. UK based. I’m getting unresolved errors via virgin media net but ok via mobile data. #dns #networking

  • tonymartin82211 tonymartin (@tonymartin82211) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia up to their scams again and when you get through all the button pressing on the phone and are past from one to another then when you start asking questions they hang up .

  • unit_1974 🐺Wolfish (@unit_1974) reported from Birmingham, England

    @BankerJase @virginmedia I’ve yet to deal with a Virgin Media team that provide decent customer service. Which is why I’ve given up on TV/Telephone. Broadband will only last if they maintain a service.

  • unit_1974 🐺Wolfish (@unit_1974) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Poxo01 We have been battling rising costs and poor service with @virginmedia for years. Have argued down the contract repeatedly due to issues. Just got the internet and home control stable again and then get another price increase letter. Fed up with them.

  • thephdrunner Dr Emma Neachell (@thephdrunner) reported from Birmingham, England

    @_gl_lxuise @SkyUK @virginmedia Same problem here. They keep saying they have fixed the issue when they clearly haven’t. They are good at putting prices up but not at fixing issues. I’m going back to Sky.

  • unit_1974 🐺Wolfish (@unit_1974) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ChrisScottBtn I’m fed up of this process year on year with an ongoing problematic service. Three complaints, two left unanswered. And then the onus is on you to chase! I cannot be bothered with them anymore. That’s the level customer service I’ve come to expect from @virginmedia now.

  • thephdrunner Dr Emma Neachell (@thephdrunner) reported from Birmingham, England

    @MrCMorley @virginmedia If it’s anything like the ongoing outage in Four Oaks they won’t bother to contact you. I checked they had my correct details and I’ve had no updates. I’ve now cancelled my contract.

  • gjw1603 Gary Webber (@gjw1603) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Price rises, overseas call centers, the time spent on the phone listening to the nausiating voice. Suggest you look at social media and learn about your shocking reputation and customer service. Im out !!

  • acroline Caroline Durbin (@acroline) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Nonsense. If you valued me as a customer I would not have gone through 3 months of unanswered calls and when I did speak to staff- accusations of lying. Check your records before cut and pasting bland replies.

  • thephdrunner Dr Emma Neachell (@thephdrunner) reported from Birmingham, England

    @MrPaulTreadwell @virginmedia @Ofcom I’ve just spoken to a very rude lady in retentions. Have been lied to, apparently I was on the internet all day yesterday, I was in the office.

  • markshawnwo mark shaw (@markshawnwo) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia internet down in Birmingham checked with reported issues and not known anything else reported it

  • Chrisf2016 Chris fletcher (@Chrisf2016) reported from Wednesfield, England

    So @virginmedia are increasing our bill again. We've been loyal customers since it was telewest even with all the problems over the years we stuck with you Well thats it. I will be finding another supplier 👋👋👋

  • thephdrunner Dr Emma Neachell (@thephdrunner) reported from Birmingham, England

    @stephanemassey @VirginMediaCorp You should leave Virgin Media, I can pretty much guarantee the service won’t improve and you’ll be left with no internet on a regular basis.

  • TeeKhan84 Tariq Khan (@TeeKhan84) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia problems with my phone line in B9 Birmingham.

  • thephdrunner Dr Emma Neachell (@thephdrunner) reported from Birmingham, England

    @BFILeigh @virginmedia @SkyUK I don’t know you but Virgin Media as a company are so bad they look Sky look amazing. If you can cancel and find an alternative I’d do it.

  • munyapower1 munyapower (@munyapower1) reported

    @virginmedia 2 complaints raised, no resolution. A Manager was supposed to call me today, did not happen.

  • clivemm1947 merv (@clivemm1947) reported

    @virginmedia @chefjames1982 Obviously if you want virgin to get there finger out and help you just put it on Twitter. It took me a 12 month such poor service

  • Anubhav35580718 Anubhav Rana (@Anubhav35580718) reported

    @virginmedia I am definitely not looking to cancel it however I don't have no other choice left

  • marklehmann26 marklehmann26 (@marklehmann26) reported

    @virginmedia our fibre broadband has been terrible all weekend with only 2 hours of actual Internet. Why is it taking so long to fix surely you have alerts in place to notify engineers of a problem and they the go and fix it. Or have you done a #PandO and sacked everyone

  • MikeWalker2012 Mike Walker (@MikeWalker2012) reported from Poole, England

    Happy days @virginmedia is down yet again... No broadband, no telly, no landline! 🤬😤

  • kirst4485 kirsty Gorman (@kirst4485) reported

    @virginmedia any chance your support team can expedite the sky cinema upgrade I added?! Desperately need it for the Oscars tonight 🙏😭

  • meatandpotato Mark Eatock (@meatandpotato) reported

    @virginmedia Could you please advise how we progress with this!?? Your services are not fit for purpose! It simply doesn’t work. I would like to be able to shop around for an alternative provider but don’t see why I should pay any termination fees as you aren’t providing the service??

  • pjbwilson Peter Wilson 🔶 (@pjbwilson) reported

    @virginmedia They were going to monitor my connectivity for 24 hours on Friday. And then never got back to me.

  • hellenicvvitch Bethany Riddle (@hellenicvvitch) reported

    @virginmedia No. The last call was someone telling they couldn’t cancel because we owe more money. We asked for the supervisor and they said they would call back. No one did. All your staff do is string customers along to cheat them out of more money! It’s disgusting!

  • SirFletchPhelps Dave Martin (@SirFletchPhelps) reported

    @Tdr1nka @virginmedia Never had an issues before but this is ******* terrible.
