  • nookandwillow clare wilson (@nookandwillow) reported from Prescot, England

    @ThingsByNik @virginmedia Have noticed they’re hard to get hold of as I’ve had issues with my install (outdoors related) they should at least do you a deal…if you could actually speak to them they will prob offer you something, that’s what Sky usually do

  • nookandwillow clare wilson (@nookandwillow) reported from Prescot, England

    @ThingsByNik @virginmedia Oh no, I’ve just signed up for their BB as our Sky one is awful and it’s the fastest available, I keep hearing not the greatest things about them though 🙈

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia LS, I have and do regularly when ever it seems slow. It varies from 12mbps download to a maximum of 110mbps. However the monthly average is under 60mbps. Which falls well short of my guaranteed speed.

  • GaryLiverpool Gary  (@GaryLiverpool) reported from Liverpool, England

    @Deanzey @virginmedia But it never… I used mobile 5G 😜

  • shell634 Michelle Oldroyd (@shell634) reported from St Helens, England

  • Gary_Kilroy Gary Kilroy (@Gary_Kilroy) reported from Liverpool, England

    The customer service offered by @virginmedia has now reached such comically useless levels that they're now making it next to impossible for me to pay them for their services!

  • jayniecakes Jayne (@jayniecakes) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Why have a Twitter presence when you can never answer account specific queries? It's a ridiculous set up.

  • Kiefer1667 Marc Lancaster (@Kiefer1667) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia hi, is it possible to check if my virgin mobile is being moved over from using ee to Vodafone? My signal keeps dropping in and out....i was told this would be happening sometime this year.

  • Ceasar_1990 Chris Greenhalgh (@Ceasar_1990) reported from Liverpool, England

    Virgin media internet is the worst 😤

  • shell634 Michelle Oldroyd (@shell634) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia The TV is out The box just keeps going from no signal to starting up on a loop Currently ourphone line isn't working again I've lost count of how many engineers have been out ! We are paying just under £100 a month for what ?? Thankfully internet ok I'm a home worker !

  • shell634 Michelle Oldroyd (@shell634) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Yeah I did initially and then doesn't load the page Tried calling just automated sent me links to mobile the same links already checked and then hung up No estimated time of when will be fixed.. I guess it's with people finishing work and realising their service is down hmmm

  • shell634 Michelle Oldroyd (@shell634) reported from St Helens, England

    Here we are again had TV on for 5 mins why I have a drink and breakfast and it's off again.with a fix date of Monday 17th I believe @virginmedia But bet we don't get any bill discount for the continuous outrage ! 3rd day WA9

  • Kiefer1667 Marc Lancaster (@Kiefer1667) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Thanks, if i request a pac code, does this cancel my contract automatically or do i still have to try and speak to someone in person over the phone, ive checked my account and im just on a rolling 30 day plan now my contract ended last dec,thanks

  • jayniecakes Jayne (@jayniecakes) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia They will disconnect my services but it might take 24 hrs..as I say if Openreach come and find I have a working phone line then them and Sky will cancel ny ibstallation! Please can my phone but turned off as of midnight or at least mych earlier than 24hrs?

  • jayniecakes Jayne (@jayniecakes) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Well I've just had a "sort of" resolution but still not really acceptable. I gave 30 days notice to cancel my services as want to get Sky. Sky and Openreach are coming tomorrow to fit phoneline & services. I have booked a day off work for this. If there is still (cont) >>

    @virginmedia First you disconnect me the day after I renewed my contract. Then you create a new account and disconnected all my services including my business phone. Then you took away my tv channels. When I complained you put the phone down. When I raised a 2nd complaint you never responded.

    Yet again my neighbours and I are trying work without @virginmedia connection in our area (#Botley, Oxon OX2) BUT the virgin website says there is no issue in our area. Does this mean it isn't being fixed? (I can't work out how to email you) How do I get an update?

  • AminaSBegum Amina Begum (@AminaSBegum) reported

    @virginmedia I have done this many times and I have contacted the team via WhatsApp however they agree that it is virgin’s fault but due to your teams being abroad they are unable to help further. Please can you send me the complaints procedure

    @virginmedia Hi! I've been unable to use my WiFi since 4am. I got a connection for around 20 minutes, and I currently work from home. Even with an ethernet cable, it's saying my broadband connection is down. What can I do as it's not going down well with work...

  • tat2loo Lucy Rogers (@tat2loo) reported

    Is there a company out there with worse customer service than @virginmedia ?? I have never been more frustrated just trying to speak to a company.

  • AyyEmbo inF Embo (@AyyEmbo) reported

    @Iou611 @virginmedia Poor customer support.

    @virginmedia That's a shame, your team we're more than eager to take more money off me and not resolve my problem.
