    @virginmedia As I say. I don't like publicly shaming a company that was once good. But your customer service is an absolute disgrace

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

    @virginmedia Have you just stopped responding now? Having some system issues?

  • nathangreen101
    Nathan (@nathangreen101) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    Hi @virginmedia is there a particular reason your engineers phone to say they are here but never actually turn up?

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

    @virginmedia It’s everything connected via Wi-Fi. I don’t have the connect app. I check for service status on your website and it usually says there isn’t an issue, but that doesn’t reflect my service.

    @virginmedia hello, can you please fix the broadband in the sk11 8aa area once and for all. It was down yesterday afternoon, just gone down today and down last week. Clearly there is some Faulty hardware that needs replacing. How can people work from home with broadband like this

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

    @virginmedia Submitting a complaint will probably result in an apology at best. Given I pay £1k per annum for an unreliable service it’s time to look for an alternative provider who can offer a more satisfactory customer experience

  • SiManM20
    Simon Manning 🇪🇺 #FBPE (@SiManM20) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Will do. That was your cue to step in and offer some ‘customer service’ btw.

    @virginmedia Hi. Is there a difference between cat 5E & cat6 & cat7 ethernet performance wise on your network 🤔. I'm using cat 6 ethernet from my hub 3.0 to your provided powerline booster . Then from powerline booster to my V6 box. I'm using cat7 ethernet from hub 3.0 to V6 🤔

  • 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

  • NeilAshtonActor
    Neil Ashton (@NeilAshtonActor) reported from Stockport, England

    @jimmyoates @virginmedia Same James. Same area and it’s not been working for an hour. It says on their website no issues in the area but not had any service.

  • sharper76
    Smyth Harper 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇺🇦☘️ (@sharper76) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I’ve just connected a new router for faster speeds and it isn’t working. I’ve called up and your customer services person who told me contradictory information, put me on hold and then hung up on me.

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

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

  • tuite_liz
    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

  • 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

  • Tiffers1973
    Tiffers (@Tiffers1973) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    Wow @virginmedia your services have gone off thu no fault of mine yet I have to wait 6 days for you to fix your faulty equipment!! Cancellation pending due to total lack of customer service! I have been a customer since day one and never have I exp such a lack of cust care

  • nathantalbot
    Nathan Talbot (@nathantalbot) reported from Urmston, England

    (Test) Is anyone experiencing a virgin media Internet outage in B9?

  • MCR_ADM
    Adam🍺 (@MCR_ADM) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia No they’re helping. But it’s VERYYYY slow. But almost there.

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

    @virginmedia And our Internet is down again this morning! So because its intermittent we don't get compensation, tried to call, can't get through (have to do it on mobile, our 'landline' is now internet reliant!)

  • SandyLindsay
    Sandy Lindsay MBE 🐝 (@SandyLindsay) reported from Sale, England

    Have @virginmedia gone down in South Manchester??? Been kicked off the wifi!

  • sharper76
    Smyth Harper 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇺🇦☘️ (@sharper76) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia No it’s not, and it has now transpired that your customer services agent told me a direct lie that there was a fault in my area when there is not. Someone else has now booked an engineer to come out - next Wednesday. I can’t even have my heating on as that’s controlled vía wifi

Virgin Media Issues Reports

  • IamCarrieagain
    Carrie (@IamCarrieagain) reported

    @virginmedia Which part of I am disabled and cannot do this on demand do you not understand? Did you even think of the consequences on your disabled customers? You weren't upfront re my current, working router being switched off after just 5 days. Disgusting service. Now I'm without any

  • IamCarrieagain
    Carrie (@IamCarrieagain) reported

    @virginmedia My issue is you turned off my working router. I'm disabled and you turned off my service.

  • Donatedparts
    Steve Austin (Not the real one) 🇬🇧 (@Donatedparts) reported

    @Benleo @marktenjag @virginmedia File an official complaint stating you were misled & want the contract cancelled without penalty. You can use a Consumer Rights Template from Citizens Advice. Escalate to a Communications Ombudsman if the company rejects your claim or fails to resolve it within 8 weeks.

  • ShirleySarah70
    ShirleySarah🌹🎸🦊🦔🐦⚽ (@ShirleySarah70) reported

    @RosyPosy_kitteh @IamCarrieagain @virginmedia They were very rude to me this afternoon. Both on chat then phone. Ill be cancelling my services next week once I have the opportunity to ring up. They treat older (I'm 72) people with disrespect.

  • Andy_wxm
    Andy Jones (@Andy_wxm) reported

    @virginmedia Been a customer of yours for 2 months and my broadband keeps dropping out. Have switched off the hub and back on yet the broadband signal is still having the same problems

  • Jackmeough7058
    Jackmeough1 (@Jackmeough7058) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Left 08/23. Landline wasn't working for 12months+. Indian call centre kept promising engineers that never came. Online logs of issue were cancelled automatically after 28 days 'You haven't been back in touch, assume issue is resolved'. I was a customer over 20yrs. ******* useless

  • Luv_Farmers
    Chrissie (@Luv_Farmers) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia I'm surprised that an investigative journalist even accepted these conditions in the 1st place. VM has an awful reputation for this kind of behaviour which is widely known. Sorry this happened to you but it was to be expected

  • StewartGar49182
    Stew G no23 (@StewartGar49182) reported

    @virginmedia They aren't recently issues they are current issues is BB being throttled back? All i get from virgin is there's no problems in the network so why is it so slow?

  • Novemberpoppy82
    Poppyfields18 (@Novemberpoppy82) reported

    @virginmedia why on earth is my internet so slow. Only been with you 2 months and it is terrible for the past 3 days. My son is trying to revise for his GCSEs for 2 exams tomorrow and this is not good. Nothing will load. Get this sorted asap

  • GothGuyGamer
    Gothguy (@GothGuyGamer) reported

    @saltyy_savage start a new contract with virgin media with a new email address, the "new" customers get all the decent prices, sincerely ongoing customer for 10+ years paying £40 for a decent connection
