Laser Lux, Wigan. (@TheWiganParky) reported from Haydock, England@virginmedia If my bill went down with my speed, I wouldn't mind.
-
Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England@VirginMedia Received message. Now not accepting my email address. I have one only. My problem is with the remote control which is activated by pressing 2 buttons when they light up. Have had nothing but trouble with one remote for one TV. Your communication us not helpful.
-
owen southworth (@obpls1995) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia can you explain why the moment I told your staff over the phone that I was disabled they decided to speak to me as if I was an idiot and then tell me they can't help me because I can't spell out my password despite telling them 5 times what the password was.
-
CryptoDan2k (@CryptoDan2k) reported from Roby, England@Huawei21327032 @virginmedia They tried to charge 30quid a month for piss which isn't the issue it's a mix of virgin media kit and also the line. Spent 2 gars studying CISCO networking CCNA and they think I don't know what I'm talking about
-
kevin.james (@pillbo01) reported from Bolton, EnglandI have virgin media but they don’t have a Customer service that you can speak to. Or email I’ve had a problem for over a month since an engineer messed about in the box in the street. Picture on tv keeps pixilated.
-
zach close YT 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈 (@ZachcloseYT) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia you are so crap we don't pay you to keep having problems daily
-
Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England@virginmedia See thread above, nothing changes except the time of the estimated fix. It must be very localised as not everyone in my area is affected. So if it is damaged cables, I haven’t seen anyone out repairing them over the weekend, it’s a joke
-
CryptoDan2k (@CryptoDan2k) reported from Roby, England@virginmedia Yes, as discussed many a time. Without fail occasion I phone there is a fault in my area and you will not send out a technician. This circle can not seam to be broken. This is why you have failed to get an engineer out to me for months and months.
-
Amanda Ralph (@aralph50) reported from Liverpool, EnglandPlease sort this out. You charge enough, surely we are entitled to a service that actually works??@virginmedia #virginmedia
-
Gary Banks (@GaryBan47314801) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia This is not the first time. The service the last 12 months has been shocking And now you're asking for the over the top increase in monthly payments 😡😡😡
-
CryptoDan2k (@CryptoDan2k) reported from Roby, England@virginmedia No, not really as you have reliability issues in my home which I believe is part the router and part the virgin line coming into my home.
-
Lindz Devine (@LindzDDub) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia @virginhelp I've never had this much issue as I have had today. I'm plugged in on ethernet, I've reset my hub, and checked my area and there is no issue at all. My WiFi is working from my hub but yet its booting me out of Destiny 2 and not just that but the chat parties on PS5 itself
-
CryptoDan2k (@CryptoDan2k) reported from Roby, England@virginmedia Done it again, 3 outages in 3 days. Very poor
-
Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England@virginmedia I'm not sure this is the 3rd box. It's the one with the router in same room. Re advice remotely got message saying problem could not be solved.
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia It’s to our address, we need a full repull and was told it would be done within 48hrs. This issue has been going on for months, they were just telling me to reboot the hub.
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@jenwahkiddles @virginmedia Pity they didn’t do it for us, had no tv or broadband for over 3 months and can’t even get the compensation they owe us, plus the direct debits they took knowing we had total loss of service. Shambolic company.
-
Tom Rushton (@tomrushton88) reported from Haydock, England@virginmedia And the last complaint I raised over this got cancelled because it didn't have any details to the complaint even though all the messages are there to see through your WhatsApp service but the retentions team can't see that or deal with the complaint or help in anyway way
-
Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England@virginmedia Could the problems in the area have caused damage to the equipment? As it was working fine before. Do I get compensation for all this time as the earliest appointment is Friday 14th?
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia They’ve been today apparently to do the repull and nothing has changed. Still no service. I won’t be paying this month as I’m not paying for nothing.
-
Anne McCormack (@1AnneMcCormack) reported from Billinge Chapel End, England@virginmedia I tell them to ring 999 or 0151 709 6010 if they want to report a crime. They hang up but they sound South Asian and their English is poor. I worry about other oaps being conned. Good luck chasing them.

Daniel DOA4 (XBOX) & Daniel_DOA4 (PSN) (@Daniel_DOA4) reported@virginmedia my internet broadband and tv are not working! This isn’t the first time this has happened to me! Really annoyed and need to use internet everyday. I do have mobile data on my phone but that will most likely max out. Please help! #notfair #BadService #IsSkyBetter?
-
Alloqui Strix (@AlloquiStrix) reportedIf it took me over a week to fix a network problem (it will actually be 10 days when @virginmedia get around to fixing our problem) I would have been fired. And you can't seem to register for compensation, even if you follow @virginmedia's own help system
-
simon bennett (@felixeemopener) reported@virginmedia This is the same service I use every Saturday and bank holiday that tells me there’s an intermittent signal in my area. Rather than send me links like this, how about fixing the issue?
-
Mandy H 💙 (@ShropshireMandy) reported@virginmedia why is your customer relations so bad? I have spent 3-4 hours on the phone trying to get a refund after you carried on taking payments after I terminated my contract. Please get it sorted.
-
Ashley Reade (@AshReade) reported@virginmedia You’ve left a vulnerable customer isolated despite a written promise of service until May 2nd. Your staff ADMITTED the error at 13:45 today but a manager just hung up on me. Absolute disgrace. Turn my lifeline service back on now. #VirginMedia #Ofcom
-
Fredo (@6ixFredo) reported@virginmedia Im cancelling my direct debit and im not paying a single penny until you sort out your abhorrent service. its been a year ive been having these issues and your cs team who barely speak a lick of english have been beyond useless. Multi billion £ company btw

NozzaOneHand (@NozzaOneHand) reportedI am seriously confused why we are stuck paying ridiculous prices for 1GB Internet from @virginmedia because @toobbroadband and @Hyperoptic won’t get there stuff together to help the north of the UK
-
Mrmutherfukery (@Mrfutherfukery) reported@virginmedia Hello, My router doesn't seem to working properly I have all the regular things recommended but the wifi is still slow. The router is quite old can I get better one please?
-
Gareth Lloyd (@El_Lloydie) reportedWell, the customer service from @virginmedia these days is really quite remarkable. And that's not a compliment. Here's a thread... Informed them that I'm moving house, and they get it booked for Friday 3rd April. All good...
