    When you have 1001 things to do, Uber slow internet (yes @virginmedia I’ve tried switching on/off etc but still feel like I’m on dial up) and still haven’t a call time for job tomorrow is making me a proper grump #mondaythoughts #MondayMotivaton #MondayBlues #MondayMood

    @virginmedia getting beyond a joke this no internet again in WN5 area after only getting it back working after 3 days last week you had better refund some of my money back and also data charge for my family's mobile network not good enough

    Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia So service resumed around 3pm with an email confirming it. In the last 5/10 mins the wireless connection keeps disappearing off. It’ll return for a second or two, then drop again. Unsurprisingly your status checker says there isn’t an issue despite there clearly being one.

    @virginmedia It’s for mine and my daughters mobile. Been going on now for 2 days. Can’t make or receive calls. Been into Virgin store today and they gave me a new sim. But couldn’t help with checking to see if there were issues in my area.

    Shaun (@shaunbentley) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia Still on the phone. Just found out the eng that was supposed to come today to fixed the frayed cables outside was a no show. Also all my smart lights have stopped working meaning the local network (not broadband) has gone down. Finally you’ve agreed to issue a deadlock letter.

    came home to a letter today stating your increasing my bill 3.00 per month from September! What's happened to loyal customer discounts utter joke! #Nothappycustomer @virginmedia

  • BazxAnderson
    Baz Anderson (@BazxAnderson) reported from St Helens, England

    So get an email on Sunday saying my @virginmedia bill is going up in September. Since then nothing but problems with the internet. If your going to charge a fortune. Provide a decent service.

    Dear @virginmedia I don’t want an automated response, I want a solution. I have had intermittent internet access for 4 WEEKS and have had ENOUGH. I want to speak to a human being, can I have a number to complain to please #crapservice

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve tried a few times but I keep getting cut off when they don’t know how to deal with the query. I’ll keep trying and maybe someone will be able help!! Thank you 🙏

  • lorraineayrton
    Lorraine Ayrton (@lorraineayrton) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Estimated fix time, it’s been going on for 4+ weeks and yes that is the number I am calling. It reset everything and did tests and currently running HOWEVER the next drop will be 5pmish as per the norm. It last went off at 14:53. I need a human being & cant speak to one

  • lorraineayrton
    Lorraine Ayrton (@lorraineayrton) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia I have tried EVERYTHING to speak to a human however the automated rubbish doesn’t let me get there. It just tells me there is a problem that you are trying to fix. Clearly I am aware there is a problem and has been for sometime I have done all usual diagnostics my end

  • lorraineayrton
    Lorraine Ayrton (@lorraineayrton) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia OK I am getting mad 🤬🤬🤬 This has been my problem I CANNOT GET THROUGH TO A HUMAN BEING. Everything is automated. When I try to call it goes round the houses and then the call drops. #lostacustomer #igiveup

  • lorraineayrton
    Lorraine Ayrton (@lorraineayrton) reported from Bolton, England

    @blackheartorch @virginmedia 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 is all I have to say right now. Just want to talk to a human and not deal with an automated service x

  • DagsJT
    Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia So it looks like the router resetting was the start of a bigger issue. Router appears to be having issues again. Your diag service thinks the router is switched off but it certainly isn’t.

    @virginmedia It's a fault you was suppose to fix yesterday at 4.15 in the area but still hasn't been fixed

    Yata (@Obvcop) reported

    @mowatb @HarisA1995 @virginmedia I think the only solution is to badger them until they send engineers out to fix it, the site is still saying no fault. They also told me to resart on the phone and I could connect with slow speeds, which worked for a bit, but after I restarted again I lost all ability to connect

  • IzabelaMnich
    Izabela Mnich (@IzabelaMnich) reported

    @virginmedia Please read emails to your ceo. I spent days trying to contact Virgin to sort my problems like many other people. FB your chats phone calls emails nothing works You have no respect to your customers! For telecommunication company you don’t know much about communication!
