  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia It's pretty annoying to phone support, wait 30 minutes to get through, then listen to someone who only knows the basics, reboot, pinhole in the back of the router, plus we can't understand each other. No point in calling support, my contract finishes soon, I look forward to that.

  • lady_leslie Victoria Leslie (@lady_leslie) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia please can someone get in touch re new installation and BB not working, was promised a call back on Saturday & Sunday but it’s not happened. If it can’t be activated I’m happy to go to another supplier but also need to speak to you to cancel

  • alwalsh72 Andrea Walsh (@alwalsh72) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia we cannot report because everything is down. It's up and down the whole of the country

  • ThatPavaldo SocialiteAppetite 🌹 (@ThatPavaldo) reported from Bury, England

    @JDenebe @virginmedia @EASPORTSFIFA I have the same problem and I am with Virgin media

  • btownofficial_ officialBtown (@btownofficial_) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @virginmedia why is it taking so long to sort out the fifa issue it’s *************** everyone who are on VM and want to play futchamps why can’t you give us a time scale on when it should be ready @NepentheZ @Itshaber @Marshall89HD

  • lady_leslie Victoria Leslie (@lady_leslie) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Because the install date has only been set today. Because your call queues are lengthy & when you get through to someone they don’t know what the issue is so hang up or transfer you elsewhere. I’ve not just called for a chat.

  • SiManM20 Simon Manning (@SiManM20) reported from Manchester, England

    @stenev @MrEuanStewart @virginmedia Until the 3 kids scream that ‘the internet’s gone off’ and you reboot it. A reboot of the @virginmedia kit always sorts it - shame they’ve never explained why though.

  • rRetro87 reconsidered Retro (@rRetro87) reported from Manchester, England

    @MsEmilyMorris I’ve got Sky Q so not sure if that makes a difference but defo call and see :-) I had horrendous customer service from Virgin Media once so vowed never to go with them again!!

  • dave6018 David (@dave6018) reported from Leyland, England

    @factuk @SkyUK @virginmedia @Facebook Thanks just annoys me, I pay for full tv service and idiots reselling mean I have to pay more for my legal services

  • TheOmnisis Brian Cooper (@TheOmnisis) reported from Sale, England

    @gazza_d @virginmedia That's just baffling. We deal with customer data, and have our InfoSec processes locked down so hard but I still get sleepless nights worrying that my team might slip up on something.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Wireless is not good the TVs upstairs keep buffering, the gaming is hardwired pretty crap.

  • lady_leslie Victoria Leslie (@lady_leslie) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia CW I give up 🤯 I’m happy with the install date they’ve given. The issue is the service, repeat calls and failed promised along with the 143mins calls to you along with an hour on webchat. Erik tells me the charges for calling are my fault as free from virgin but line not active.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia My upload speed is up and down, line not stable, come on VM. Sort it out.

  • lady_leslie Victoria Leslie (@lady_leslie) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia No, unfortunately your team were really unhelpful so I don’t know what the issue is. A callback was needed because the BB is not working & your staff couldn’t help me any further so promised me callback to either resolve it or cancel the account

  • GibboLFC1892 Andy Gibson (@GibboLFC1892) reported from Hindley, England

    @virginmedia Is there an issue with Virgin TV. Got V53 error. Looked at problems in our Area (Wigan) no issues..

  • neilrstanley Neil Stanley (@neilrstanley) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Not sure I can replicate problem now I’m successfully logged into the app.

  • KateBoarman Kate (@KateBoarman) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia I understand that, I told him I did not want to confirm details and would call in my own time, He was then very rude got angry and abrupt! It actually sounded like a scam. I am interested to know if it was virgin media agent as he needs more training!

  • SamMcCartney Sam McCartney (@SamMcCartney) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @Craig273 @virginmedia No. I just want to cancel sky sports as for £31.75 a month I don’t get the use out of it. I was lied to saying it would affect my package discount. I already get BT sport for free and if Amazon will be streaming more it’s pointless

  • msmithuk22 Martin Smith (@msmithuk22) reported from Warrington, England

    Another week @virginmedia services down yet again, first they screw up my network up resetting everytbing, failing to listen multiple neighbours have no internet. Then call again and agree outage but don’t expect anything back we only compensate for more than 48 hours #badservice

  • Bridgey36 Bridgeman ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (@Bridgey36) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Can I cancel , pause my sports subscription until this virus is over.

  • ash2805 MrsP2805 (@ash2805) reported

    @virginmedia @virginhelp Since midnight last night I’ve had no internet & phone. The fix will now be 11.15 tomorrow, I understand this is an outage but why is this taking so long to fix?

  • NicoleHarr92 Nicole Harrison (@NicoleHarr92) reported

    @virginmedia So from 48hrs, to max 5 working days and now 7 working days?? Why is everyone giving me different info. I have tried to rest it and its the same problem. Someone needs to reset it and call me, this is ridiculous….

  • Bostonian7119 The Bostonian (@Bostonian7119) reported

    @virginmedia I was given the wrong information - there was a power outage. Not good service.

  • nasirsaleem2009 Nasir Saleem (@nasirsaleem2009) reported

    @virginmedia calling for last 5 hours for a business fault, over 40 mins hold 3 times and No one to answer. Well done Virgin Media 24/7 technical support. My business losing revenue by the hour. Shame on appalling service

  • will_thelwell Will (@will_thelwell) reported

    Another day, another @virginmedia outage. Absolutely pathetic going off for the 4th day in a row.

  • Burrowsdaughter Heather O'Dell (@Burrowsdaughter) reported

    @virginmedia Don’t bother, Virgin have not unblocked our IP address since 23 June and yesterday after a call our internet is not working. We are in contract until 3August so need internet until then as we are paying for it! Been put on hold to try and speak to someone for 30 Minutes now !!!

  • Burrowsdaughter Heather O'Dell (@Burrowsdaughter) reported

    @virginmedia @virginhelp promised a call back from @virginmedia since yesterday as with our internet. Had blocked IP address since 23 June and unable to send emails. They never call back - appalling service!!!!

  • DjPseudonym James Thomason (@DjPseudonym) reported

    @virginmedia Internet is up and down every 5 minutes. Is there an issue in the area please?

  • MissMarvel2016 Christine (@MissMarvel2016) reported

    @cheeeztoast @virginmedia You should make a proper complaint anyway. Going to ask @JoinPhil to switch the account over to my name so I can because this is unacceptable. The level of gaslighting has been unreal.

  • l_fisher90 Laura Fisher (@l_fisher90) reported

    @virginmedia why do you keep cancelling on new customers with less than 24 hrs notice and last thing at night? Why do your engineers not want to install your services to a new customer? 🤔
