    Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia It works intermittently. When I speak to an advisor they fix the issue at that moment. Then, the next day it’ll cut out again and the process repeats. It was working when the engineer left, but it didn’t last 24 hours. Intermittent isn’t good enough. I rely on you for work.

  • WCONNOLLY2512

    @beverleyturner @virginmedia Virgin Media had gone ****. Poor broadband, crappie TV channels and half don't even work.

  • CallyRaven
    Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @virginmedia 3 times in 3 weeks we are without internet! We are paying for a service we are not able to use! Are we going to be compensated for this?

  • Rayzor74
    Ray Morgan. NHS💙🇺🇦 (@Rayzor74) reported from Stockport, England

    Good start to the day with @virginmedia informing me my monthly bill is increasing by £15/month and I have until the 17th of April to decide on my options. That is £180 annually. Having been firstly a Nynex customer and a Virgin customer since the takeover think it may be time

  • dantheman8t5
    Daniel McDermott (@dantheman8t5) reported from Dukinfield, England

    @virginmedia any idea when the outage will be sorted? I have work to do today

  • anttaylor23
    Anthony Taylor (@anttaylor23) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia The what's app line is fine, your advisers don't seem like they want to keep me as a customer. Well not for a decent price anyway 👀

  • blokealex
    alex. (@blokealex) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Complaint is about billing after cancellation, your staff refusing to process my request to cancel and being told a different thing every time I call back… it’s been awful.

  • johnsonhomes2
    johnsonhomes (@johnsonhomes2) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia If that was the only issue than yes that would be the logical next step. But as you’ll see from the previous tweets and email sent on Wednesday it isn’t. All the issues need dealing with in the round or otherwise I’ll have to cancel and go back to sky.

  • roslers_vest
    Scott Moseley (@roslers_vest) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia Yes currently showing resolution time of 0230 04/11 this is a really poor service it has been off for the majority of the day

  • martyn_driver
    Martyn The Driver (@martyn_driver) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia after 26 years as a loyal cable customer it is time to say goodbye. It would seem that loyalty is not rewarded, and you don't want low use customers

  • mark001282
    Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I spoke to your customer service team on 2nd January who advised all issues had been resolved and my sim card was being sent out by royal mail delivery. Even with any postal delays out of your control it seems odd that it hasn't arrived.

  • _AdamGardiner
    Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia Will they help if the Wi-Fi is working at the time I call? Because my issue is that when it is working, your advisors consider their work done despite telling them that it usually doesn’t last. And invariable, it doesn’t.

  • SurrealPaulT
    Paul Terry (@SurrealPaulT) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia hi Virgin. We had an outage of broadband and TV services beginning 23rd Sept which lasted for 4 days. At the time we were told we would be compensated for this loss. As it hasn't come off our latest bill, how do we claim?

  • tonyj01
    Tony Jacobs (@tonyj01) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia seems to be down nationally. 1: tell us status 2: tell us when back on

  • martinmoscrop
    Martin Moscrop 🎺 (@martinmoscrop) reported from Salford, England

    @LennieThevan @virginmedia That sounds terrible Lennie. If you want to change a plan and save money they go out of their way to be unhelpful. However, if you want to spend more their customers service Is better.

  • roslers_vest
    Scott Moseley (@roslers_vest) reported from Rochdale, England

    @bluecitygirl232 @virginmedia I had the same issue with them in December always down not reliable couldn’t WFH so binned them off went to BT and fingers crossed not had an issue to date

  • KerryKez7
    Kerry Louise (@KerryKez7) reported from Urmston, England

    Don’t ever get Virgin Media internet/WIFI it’s SO garbage & keeps going off especially when your watching something WTF & apparently it’s the most up to date & according to them it’s the best NO it’s not plus it’s expensive for being SO c**p 🤬💷😤

  • tuite_liz
    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?

  • PaulRegent1
    Paul Regent (@PaulRegent1) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia no internet available in Bolton - must be an outage as, although coverage is very poor, it isn’t usually this poor!!

  • pillbo01
    kevin.james (@pillbo01) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia That number is a automated response not a customer service agent and an utter waste of time

    @virginmedia 10 straight days. No WiFi/tv channels. No, it’s not an area outage,it started as one but now it’s a major issue affecting my connection.I’ve been on the app but it says no outage issues in my area. No one can seem to tell me when it will be fixed. I work from home and need wifi

  • Jimmyboy35
    James Agg (@Jimmyboy35) reported

    @virginmedia I have now been on hold for my broadband and TV issues for over 2hours in total

  • cycleprawn
    SFB-Mod (@cycleprawn) reported

    @obbsie @virginmedia They are absolutely ****. Wouldn’t use them if they were free. They are dishonest and I wouldn’t trust them to run me a bath without cocking it up.

  • kram2510
    Mark (@kram2510) reported

    @virginmedia I have been on the phone in a queue for 3 hrs for it to be cancelled .. total of 4 hrs now! Sent out a new hub without activating it.. been without WiFi for days now .. how can we run a business … message before I cancel the package

  • SullivanSK
    Stephen Sullivan (@SullivanSK) reported

    @virginmedia Well over 2.5 hours on hold regarding a total loss of service and no responses to DMs. Live chat also seems to be disabled on the app. Really shocking customer service. Can you tell me how much longer I should expect to be on hold? Or have someone reach out?

  • Merse2506
    John Mercer (@Merse2506) reported

    @virginmedia The help on your website is very bad. Please can I arrange an engineer

  • RonTamblo
    Tamblo (@RonTamblo) reported

    @virginmedia Virgin media is the worst business to get answers from . Either trying to actually speak to someone rather than a Bott who doesn’t understand. Trying to upgrade due to constant messages saying my box needs upgrade and getting no help is a joke !!!!

  • grandadthegrey
    Steve H 📷🦋🐝 (@grandadthegrey) reported

    Just spent an hour trying to contact a human at @virginmedia but failed. Customer service line useless. Chat didn't work. Web site takes you round in circles and does not solve what I wanted to know.

  • nickholding01
    Nick68 (@nickholding01) reported

    @virginmedia Trying to help my neighbour. She got message saying needs to upgrade to 360 by June but when we follow instructions to go to apps and games there is no 'upgrade' option

  • nickried
    Nick Riedlinger (@nickried) reported

    @virginmedia is there a way to renew my service without spending 3 hours on a Web chat and 2 and a half hours on phone calls because the price and content of my product keeps being changed by your various agents?
