  • danandbec Dan and Bec (@danandbec) reported from Stafford, England

    Well, @virginmedia what a way to welcome a new customer. Two weeks in and I’m getting speeds so slow the internet is unusable. A week to wait before an engineer visit and there’s no compensation. How do we key workers work from home this week on 2mbit?

  • small1808 nathan (@small1808) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia an hour on hold and still no further forward 😭😭😭😭😭 this is why i dont ring with problems with my service from you

  • Rocketman_86 Rocketman_86 (@Rocketman_86) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Yes. No human tone. No customer service. The usual have you tried changing the batteries in your phone, could it be your handset etc ( they bought new ones 6/7 week ago thinking it was them) may be they should ask Virgin Media to reimburse them

  • EmzeeJaye Emily-jaye collins. (@EmzeeJaye) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia considering my number isn't on the directory and I've never given it out to anyone, it's funny how I am getting so many scam and cold calls.

  • xTrustBandit #bandit4president (@xTrustBandit) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia u guys ******* suck . Worst internet UK

  • Rocketman_86 Rocketman_86 (@Rocketman_86) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Your a tech company and doesn't have an email address. Your live chat is laughable and waiting times on the phones is silly. Trying log into the account - forget password the username doesn't exist. The self help is insulting intelligence is the ringer switched on for instance

  • AshMcFarlane95 Ash🌐 (@AshMcFarlane95) reported from Rugeley, England

    @virginmedia you internet service is down again

  • mrsclholdcroft Claire Holdcroft (@mrsclholdcroft) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia can you please tell me how to ensure that you cancel my contract? I have tried since June! I’ve moved out and you keep on sending me bills and notices of not paying! The chat is useless as no one actually helps! It then disconnects! So disappointed.

  • andyvic7 Andy Picken (@andyvic7) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @drummerwhitey @northernsky67 @virginmedia Steve it was a last resort for me but other avenues were fruitless, I ended up getting a visit from an engineer , a booster and a reduction in my tariff after I told them I’d leave , normal customer service is dreadful, keep on pushing them

  • small1808 nathan (@small1808) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia been on hold with one of your customer service agents for 45 minutes now hope she is alright

  • Timtastic10IAR Paul Rooney (@Timtastic10IAR) reported from Rugeley, England

    @virginmedia And down it goes again 😂

  • mrsclholdcroft Claire Holdcroft (@mrsclholdcroft) reported from Stafford, England

    Trying to speak to @virginmedia is so hard, trying to cancel my contract for nearly 2 months now. Does anyone ever get out?

  • PeachyBeechy cara (@PeachyBeechy) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia is there an issue with the internet service in ST4 Stoke on Trent?

  • booksandcomics StaffordBooks&Comics (@booksandcomics) reported from Stafford, England

    Right in the middle of hosting a virtual pub quiz with friends from around the world and our WiFi with @virginmedia cuts out. It’s been fine all the way through lock down, unsure why these past few days it has been awful...#virginmediadown

  • supercharger49 Brian A Wilshaw (@supercharger49) reported from Rugeley, England

    @virginmedia Our virgin has been down for 2 days. When phoning, all we get is a message saying 'Sorry the service in your area is intermittent, our engineers are doing their best to fix it. Intermittent???? I wish! We've had no telephone, internet or TV continually for 2 days, 😡

  • EmzeeJaye Emily-jaye collins. (@EmzeeJaye) reported from Stafford, England

    Virgin media really need to pull their finger out. Don't boast a service that you simply cannot provide. What a bloody joke. #virginmedia #failmedia

  • Ohrate_Tri Chris Walton (@Ohrate_Tri) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia how do I organise a home move service. I’ve been on hold on the online chat since yesterday teatime. No one is answering or speaking to me in there.

  • beth_emma_ Beth Emma (@beth_emma_) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    This is ******* painful @virginmedia were in the middle of a lock down sort yourselves out 🤬

    @virginmedia Tv down internet down

  • KarinaChilton Karina Chilton (@KarinaChilton) reported

    @leonagraham @virginmedia Best one was last week when workmen cut through our UFO cable (not Virgin). Lady on the tech help desk still insisted she needed to check my line speed before proceeding! The cable was in two pieces, she sounded surprised when it came back as zero! 🤔🤨

  • iammisswilliams iammisswilliams (@iammisswilliams) reported

    @virginmedia how many times will you **** up my wifi. I want to leave I’ve had enough.

  • JohnKingscott John Kingscott (@JohnKingscott) reported

    @virginmedia Countdown to fix being pushed back to 1600hrs in 3...2.... (day 3)

  • Nickynockyno Nicola Cheeseman (@Nickynockyno) reported

    @virginmedia I need to speak to a human help! Going round in circles on your website and live chat and phone …

  • iammisswilliams iammisswilliams (@iammisswilliams) reported

    How are people mean to work from home without wifi @virginmedia?! This should be a part of my get out clause cause there’s no way I’m paying £240 to leave when I’m not getting the service I’m paying for.

  • subhie Subhakant (@subhie) reported

    @virginmedia I just called customer support and the engineer is scheduled to come today later . It been going on for more than 1 months now. I am thinking of approaching ofcom. I am quite frustrated.
