    @virginmedia Thanks for your advice about the forums. A very helpful person tried to help but apparently no result. I called 789 again today. A ticket has been raised 3-5 days before I get a result. THREE TO FIVE DAYS is not acceptable. OFCOM says I should get a code with A MINUTE

    @virginmedia 50 minutes on the phone. 6 operatives. Nobody can tell me when the fibre will be fixed. First today. Then Monday. Then the 17th. Then the 22nd. Then the 17th again. Like I said - a shambles. Service cancelled. @Ofcom @bt_uk @SkyMediaUK #hitmeup

    @virginmedia I’m more bothered about getting the same offers as new customers. Never understood why companies don’t value the customers they already have

  • WMattitude84
    Matt W (@WMattitude84) reported from York, England

    Email from @virginmedia saying my bill going up by £3 a month when I’ve had zero service for 28 hours and counting and no service for 10 days of the last month!! Great!

    Geoffrey Armstrong (@Gaarmstrong318) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia I saw the disclaimer. What is really shocking is I’m having to have this out publically with you. Your offshore call centre is not fit to diagnose issues. Every times I’ve called with a major fault I’ve been told there is an area fault and to wait for it to be fixed.

  • dreadedwhisky
    Guy Rushworth (@dreadedwhisky) reported from York, England

    @EE There’s a distinct possibility that I’ll be switching services in the imminent future. The help from @virginmedia has been laughable. However, having spent £10 to top up the EE SIM card and then finding out I can’t contact your customer support because it costs 25p extra is rich.

    @vmbusiness hi, in my student house we’ve been without wifi for 3 days now. i’ve used the website to check the service but it says it is working fine. we’ve now been relying on data for 3 days (which is also v expensive). please help!

  • Gaarmstrong318
    Geoffrey Armstrong (@Gaarmstrong318) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia well done virgin, moved into new house you come to do the setup and it’s not working right. What a sodding surprise!

  • varney1987
    James Varney (@varney1987) reported from York, England

    Spent over an hour trying to work out why I have no internet. @virginmedia app tells me all fine in my area, the my router must be turned off. Yet the lights are on everything is connected to it. Just no internet coming through #WTF #FFS #VirginMedia #IJustWantedToWatchGoodOmens

  • Gaarmstrong318
    Geoffrey Armstrong (@Gaarmstrong318) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia getting so sick of having to deal with you. Raised a complaint in August had one missed call in August and a letter in September saying you would get it touch only to be told you are now closing the complaint cause I haven’t spoke to you..... seriously this is a joke

  • nettlyork
    James Dickinson (@nettlyork) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia I cannot get through to your call centre. Please accept this message and confirmation as of 28 days to terminate my account with you as of January 25th 2020. Account number 724766503

    @virginmedia my fibre has been down all day so far, area 22. Tests come back as everything is okay... it’s really not

    @virginmedia Paying too much. I can't get through by calling 150 on land line get bored after 1 hours and 27 mins of waiting. I want to stay with virgin media as all I watch is eurosport. Help please😁👍

  • bruce_mcdowell
    Bruce McDowell (@bruce_mcdowell) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia morning, try to help my elderly mum out, WiFi has been off since last Friday, she also out of contract and we can’t get through to any advisor? Help please

  • knitting_tsuki
    Hayley Dumont (@knitting_tsuki) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia I’ve just been on hold for AN HOUR and then you cut me off. This is terrible customer service! How am I supposed to get hold of someone to discuss the problem I’m having with my broadband?

  • yorker_old
    Nathan (@yorker_old) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia Yes done all the checks. I would not be able to get 50mb down load if it was not set up. Upload is 0.5mb. Can be intermittent also. Help!

  • Gaarmstrong318
    Geoffrey Armstrong (@Gaarmstrong318) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia I’ve lodged another complaint for this, not entirely convinced you will fix the issues. Being force to fought up for extra CPE in order to make your piss poor service to work is frankly disgusting

  • SkyFilming
    Sky Filming (@SkyFilming) reported from York, England

    Lol @virginmedia internet down and their website service status page is also down. 😂

  • barstep
    Barrie J Stephenson (@barstep) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia 24 to 48 hours to obtain a PAC code from you is not acceptable. Why are your systems not working? I tried using a text message but directed to make a quick phone call. After 20 minutes (quick?) on a call I’m told your system is generating error codes.

  • adam7485
    Adam Thompson (@adam7485) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia All I was told was that the new estimated date of fix is tomorrow at half four, but not holdi my breath

    @OliverGMcManus @virginmedia Im sure you can after so many days of not working as its breach of contract on their behalf. Look into it.

  • R111_Gaz
    Gaz (@R111_Gaz) reported

    @palmertrees @Amy_90_x Well, yes, just like people pay for Sky et al. Point is, its normally an extra fee channel, but not this afternoon, any Virgin Media customer can have it.

  • truthtellerGB
    TheseColorsDontRun (@truthtellerGB) reported

    @OliverGMcManus @virginmedia What’s more insane is that you are using Virgin Media. One of the worst service provider in the UK alongside O2.

  • ShirleySarah70
    ShirleySarah🌹🎸🦊🦔🐦⚽ (@ShirleySarah70) reported

    @virginmedia @RumouredRebecca I want to end my tv services early. I did ask for help a few times but you haven't responded yet. Why is this? Im still leaving no matter how many times you ignore me, your service is abysmal. I'm still paying even though I use Freesat. HELP PLEASE 🥺

  • MannyParmar
    Manoj Parmar (@MannyParmar) reported

    @virginmedia you’ve made no provisions for your vulnerable customers in the LE5 5AA area after a lightning strike took out comms for everyone? Your estimated time to fix has gone from 24 hours to 4th June which is over a week away! How are life line pendants going to work?

  • markrmifsud
    markrmifsud (@markrmifsud) reported

    @virginmedia This is beyond a joke. Estimated fix 1st June 12:05

  • Urban__Groove
    Urban Groove (@Urban__Groove) reported

    @virginmedia How dare you give your crap partners O2 @O2 permission to set up a direct debit in my account without my permission? 😡 Next time you pull a stunt like that i will end my contract immediately and go else where, You thieving B******* 😡

  • burgs2010
    Nick Burgin - Horror Writer (@burgs2010) reported

    With @virginmedia still being down for many people (2 weeks now), how many customers are they about to lose to @EE or @skytv ?

  • Alissa_SarahLou
    Alissa (@Alissa_SarahLou) reported

    @virginmedia When are you going to issue a formal statement on the nationwide wifi outage. Cm16 area been out since last Thursday, but for others I can see it's been a lot longer. Do right by your customers and issue a statement

  • textmaniac78
    Adam Weston (@textmaniac78) reported

    @OliverGMcManus @virginmedia I got told once and I don't know if it works but if you ring up and upgrade to another package it's classed as a new contract so you can cancel within 14 days maybe worth looking into doing that
