  • HazelHendriksen hazel hendriksen (@HazelHendriksen) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia I need some technical help as my equipment is faulty. Tried all the resets and followed advise but box keeps going into standby. Also not been loading any tv planner or what’s up next for weeks. The box is over 7 years old. Think a technician would be helpful

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

    @virginmedia Nope. I have username already selected to my email address, password filled in on both fields, security question drop down selected and answer given in the field, and date of birth drop downs all selected. There’s nothing else I can select or that hadn’t been filled in now.

  • LiamFitzy9 Liam Fitzpatrick (@LiamFitzy9) reported from Liverpool, England

    @sky box has just gone off, rang them said I need to get an engineer out £65, and boxes need upgrades another £7 a month. Told them I’ll just cancel it, but I can’t do that over the phone. Just had to buy a £10 day pass on now tv for the boxing @virginmedia see ya Monday

  • 52Normski Norman Williams (@52Normski) reported from Bryn, England

    AWFUL SERVICE. Wrote to @virginmedia about my mobile; no response so rang 789 who cut me off 3 times as they couldn't put me through to that office in Swansea. Direct number online was wrong. On 4th call logged complaint; they to ring me back in 3 days. Not holding my breath.

  • garyjowen2 Gary Owen (@garyjowen2) reported from Atherton, England

    There is a problem with the internet in M46 0HU @virginmedia

  • davidfiggins David Figgins 🌱🌎💚 (@davidfiggins) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia The other services work fine. I have no issues with connectivity other than when streaming on demand shows/movies. The only assistance I need is for you to sort your streaming service.

  • thecraigthomas Craig Thomas (@thecraigthomas) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia you are just awful at customer service and fault management. I am utterly appalled

  • nathanrigby__96 Nath (@nathanrigby__96) reported from Tyldesley, England

    **** @virginmedia shit internet!😡

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

    @virginmedia Adding a character and then removing that character worked. By pasting the password in, it wasn’t accepting the password regardless. It needed a character to be manually added. I’ve never seen that before on any password fields on any other site, seems like an API issue maybe.

  • Nathann_B Nathan Booth (@Nathann_B) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia how can I put a complaint in about poor customer service and about a technician appointment being cancelled without being told

  • Sam_Cook_1986 Samuel Cook (@Sam_Cook_1986) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia disappointed to say the least. Customer for 5 years, out of contract, bill is £120 a month, Phone up to renew and negotiate, no offers. Despite Amazon being a new competitor for sports and the mobile experience being infinitely better with them. Package cancelled.

  • annbenedict9 annbenedict (@annbenedict9) reported from Brinscall, England

    @virginmedia surgery phone line keeps cutting out on patients- national issue I am told

    Surprise surprise the @virginmedia estimated fix time for RH15 has moved back again!! No internet, phone or TV. Totally UNACCEPTABLE!!! Never had this trouble with BT or Sky. I suppose my own fault for putting all my eggs in one basket with massive holes in! #avoidliketheplague

  • julieecarter Julie Carter (@julieecarter) reported

    @virginmedia @virginhelp Thanks, I had confirmed an upgrade, but was at work. When I got home and looked at handsets I charged which one I wanted. So called to alter the order. This is where the problem lay.

  • MDeanEsq Martin Dean #FBPE 3.5% (@MDeanEsq) reported

    @virginmedia I've had what I think is a scam phone call from someone claiming to be Virgin Media. He sound Indian, and the call sounded long distance. He said my system needs to be re-configured, and hit quite irritated when I said we hino issues. I hung up. Is this you?
