  • Jack_Deyes Jack Deyes (@Jack_Deyes) reported from Southampton, England

    @Kelly_Jackson88 @virginmedia I was with them for a few weeks and all I had was problems with them. I’ve moved over to #BT and they are great so maybe check them out

  • Duckocide Duckocide Games (@Duckocide) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia So I'm told after speaking to you. Not seeing it on service page though. Agent said there was network issue.

  • edinnature Stephen groom (@edinnature) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia connection down again. No internet. Connecting to router etc, rebooted, reset, reinstalled drivers, reset ipconfig. But service status still saying everythings fine...clearly not 😔

  • PandaKingPinder Panda 🐼 (@PandaKingPinder) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia The issue is some of the ports in the back don't work, we get occasional dips in the internet's which some days don't reach the amount we pay for and the webpage says we can upgrade our hub but can only be done on the phone to see we can't get hold of anyone.

  • Danzy92 Craig (@Danzy92) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia Yes, I’ve checked everyday and despite signing up for text updates about this issue, I’ve heard nothing despite being 48 hours after the date it was supposed to be fixed. Not even a further text so confirm a delay. Could you provide any update to the SO15 postcode issue?

  • Alec2306 Alec Clapperton (@Alec2306) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia I have done all of this multiple times and nothing has come up. Today has been particularly bad where I lose signal every 5 minutes. I don’t need to keep doing the troubleshooting steps, I need a new router or an engineer

  • Duckocide Duckocide Games (@Duckocide) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia Yeah. Done all that a number times. I've spoken to tech support. Awaiting an engineer call. I'll leave this conversation here. Appreciate your attention but running those tests will just get me to the book an appointment or thrown out. I've run them a lot. Thanks. Ttfn

  • tom_smith6 Tom Smith (@tom_smith6) reported from Southampton, England

    @_JC8 @virginmedia @virginmedia Hi can somebody please contact me regarding an issue I have with my virgin account please?

  • PaulineR59 Pauline Richards (@PaulineR59) reported from Southampton, England

    @LDesesperes @virginmedia Lucky you. Loyal customer for over 20 years......nothing for loyalty

  • Alec2306 Alec Clapperton (@Alec2306) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia I have been constantly looking at the site and it keeps telling me there are no issues. It only appears to be WiFi that is an issue

  • Duckocide Duckocide Games (@Duckocide) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia Still not working. About to phone

  • Duckocide Duckocide Games (@Duckocide) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia So I'm told after speaking to you. But seeing it on service page though.

  • Duckocide Duckocide Games (@Duckocide) reported from Andover, England

    @thedarkfenix @virginmedia I hope so. I really rely on the service now.

  • colingrinnell colin grinnell (@colingrinnell) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia is there any known problems with your WiFi hub ? The WiFi signal I receive is terrible constantly dropping out. I spend most of the time on 3G as it’s more reliable. I have rebooted all routers and boosters but noting seems to make the WiFi work

  • Danzy92 Craig (@Danzy92) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia wifi issues for over a week. Run test every day for it to just say there’s some issue in your area. When will this be fixed? Costing me money to commute somewhere where I can get wifi and disrupting my work.

  • Lou_LouFML LoUlOu (@Lou_LouFML) reported from Southampton, England

    Cheers @virginmedia WiFi gone down in the middle of the FA cup semi final. Utter **** as usual

  • WebbTowers Trevor Webb (@WebbTowers) reported from Hedge End, England

  • SarahJaneDyke Sarah-Jane Felicity (@SarahJaneDyke) reported from Eastleigh, England

  • samir_sampatel samir patel (@samir_sampatel) reported

    @virginmedia New package as my dela is ending. Spent 50 mins on hold just now and then cut off !! Terrible service. Can't speak to a person

  • GarethECoates Gareth Coates 💙 (@GarethECoates) reported

    She did offer to arrange a callback from her manager, but then explained this would take 5 working days which, given that I originally placed the upgrade order with @virginmedia via their website on 08/06 strikes me as spectacularly poor service. (3/END)

  • westerby1 Norma (Stuckasaurus) Roberts (@westerby1) reported from Thornton, England

    @virginmedia Hi, John, is it possible to find out if anyone rang me just before that call was made? I'm wondering if I've responded to something I shouldn't have? I'm normally very careful about unsolicited calls and, usually, hang up, but I'm only human & we all make mistakes! It was April.

  • philmcc1875 Phil McCabe (@philmcc1875) reported

    @virginmedia It's not much use. It has been due to be resolved @ 1806 for the last few days. Its now pushed out to 0825 on Tuesday 14th with no real updates!!! Poor customer service yet again from VM

  • prfrankowski PiotrRFrankowski (@prfrankowski) reported

    @virginmedia It did not. And I was not and am not going to wait over an hour. I only got through to a real person (unsure if that was true) once on the chat. That person told me a code would be sent to me by mail. It never happened.

  • prfrankowski PiotrRFrankowski (@prfrankowski) reported

    @virginmedia I never got through on the telephone. I went over the idiotic AI routine on the chat maybe 40 times now. The adviser told me on the chat four weeks ago that I would be sent a “code” which would enable me to finally cancel your service. IT NEVER ARRIVED. Got it now?

  • DavidColeman33 David Coleman (@DavidColeman33) reported

    Moving to new premises due to economic downturn. Virgin can't provide service to new premises. Unlike @BTBusiness & @SkyUK, @vmbusiness will charge a cancellation fee higher than the cost of paying for the service until the contract ends even though we won't be there! Wickedness!

  • Newsugarbush72 wayne herbert (@Newsugarbush72) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, can u help? I have virgin tv but need the box moved to another room. Is there a charge for this? Thanks.

  • SDH1844 Sue Higgins (@SDH1844) reported

    @virginmedia @SimIwan Terrible, terrible service.

  • Binzy66Tequila TEQUILA Dogwood (@Binzy66Tequila) reported

    @virginmedia It's the fire stick and it's not listed in help section... If there something I can purchase to make the connection better...?
