  • maxinetennet74 Maxine Tennet (@maxinetennet74) reported from Walker Gate, England

    What will it take for @virginmedia to actually sort out an account after a bereavement??? 3 months later, endless calls and empty promises. Continued anxiety and distress for an elderly woman is not the bereavement service I’d expect. Appalling.

  • pearceswan David Pearce (@pearceswan) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

    @virginmedia I know my line is spoofed, when an incoming call from a foreign country is giving out I’m not wrong number as I’m being spoofed I am technically aware of this I used to provide support for a very large telecommunications company

  • KeithRwc Keith Dawson (@KeithRwc) reported from Washington, England

    Looks like @virginmedia are again trying to take Netflix payment that should already be included in my Volt. This is disgusting behaviour having already spoke to them previously!! Anyone else having similar issues?

  • didixon74 LadyDi (@didixon74) reported from Blyth, England

    @virginmedia please can some one contact me about my unresolved complaint. Genuinely worst service I have aver received, want to cancel my contract as I have lost all confidence in your service. Over 4 hours on the phone in the last week and still no further forward. Thanks

  • gaznolan Gary Nolan (@gaznolan) reported from Mitford, England

    @virginmedia Ridiculous service from your team in Manilla. Both Joy & Brian telling me I wasn't able to pass security because I couldn't tell them my next bill date as the package/contract is ended even after telling them my normal date and all other DP information

  • CazzaW CazzaW (@CazzaW) reported from Walker Gate, England

    Wakey wakey @virginmedia shoddy service not to update a LOT of the UK on broadband problems

  • Andymorris74 Andrew Morris💙 (@Andymorris74) reported from Mitford, England

    @virginmedia Your whole system is down! No access to telephone No access to broadband No access to website No access to status checker What’s going on???

  • Neil_Rivelino Neil Todd (@Neil_Rivelino) reported from Mitford, England

    @virginmedia We’ve never received a reply and no out of office. My wife has sent a chase last night. Feel really let down by @virginmedia #LetDown #PoorCustomerExperience

  • pearceswan David Pearce (@pearceswan) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

    @virginmedia I spoke to them the other day they told me that you do not record any time when the broadband drops out only when a customer calls in so please can you get this sorted out thank you

  • CazzaW CazzaW (@CazzaW) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @virginmedia down in Newcastle? How am I meant to work?

  • classicm Mike Moody (@classicm) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia All my tv, broadband and phone services are down. Nobody available from Virgin to help. Done all the usual checks and still off.

  • pearceswan David Pearce (@pearceswan) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia If there is any tools that you can suggest I use to solve my issue it will be greatly appreciated, I don’t mean to mean in your position but I just would like to know exactly what you can do SHAW at the end of the day I’m assuming you’re going to tell me to go to technical help

  • Nicola_Johnston Nic Johnston 🇺🇦🌻 (@Nicola_Johnston) reported from Mitford, England

    @virginmedia come on. You just have a good idea from the outage earlier today how long this is going to take. I’m trying to WFH with Covid. @bt_uk how long does it take to switch providers?

    @virginmedia Hi JB, sadly my wifi still has major issues. Can someone please investigate? It’s been over 2 weeks with very limited wifi (only emails and basic web search). Can’t make video calls or stream things/very fuzzy. Interfering with ability to work or do admin. Can’t book engineer

  • jlamodeespinosa Jaime Lamo de Espinosa (@jlamodeespinosa) reported

    @virginmedia This is absolutely crazy. I have been on the phone with your customer service, getting transferred from one department to another and now they tell me that the request to reconnect has still not been sent abd that it would take at least 72h fron today. This is CRAZY

  • RoyBurn1 Roy Burn (@RoyBurn1) reported

    @BigAlzzzz @virginmedia Any chance Virgin could fix my horrible broadband coverage. The only consistent thing about your service is your inconsistency. Terrible service, charge a premium but absolutely terrible

  • Frankieabroad Frankie Belle (@Frankieabroad) reported

    @virginmedia Hi AR, thanks. If it’s not fixed by tomorrow would I be able to have a webchat? The fix date keeps getting delayed or the service checker says it’s my devices or reboot the hub. I have POA for my dad who’s a vulnerable customer and need wifi to make calls for him and zoom appts

  • NEBERKENEZA Aaron Morgan (@NEBERKENEZA) reported

    @virginmedia Have every connection assessed at the network box and asses the lines into peoples homes as this has persisted for ten years I swear on god

  • Blueisdcolor Ateesh (@Blueisdcolor) reported

    @virginmedia Absolutely pathetic mis-selling, I upgraded to Volt and was told you get 3 Wi-Fi pods to cover all areas in the house. Now I get told, You will get them only if you prove with “our Virgin Connect” app thst there is poor connectivity
