    @virginmedia I’m a new customer and have installation booked for 24/02 for my broadband. The house currently doesn’t have any TV aerial cables, will these be installed the same day?

  • babybio18 Tracy Abraham 💙💙 (@babybio18) reported from Wigan, England

    Need a new internet provider @virginmedia your service has become unreliable. When I’m trying to learn online and have lost service at least 5 times today already 🤬 #nothappy

  • Nicole_Baker Coley B (@Nicole_Baker) reported from Whittle-le-Woods, England

    @virginmedia Understood. As I said I will wait for what was promised and continue to highlight where virgin media fail to keep promises.

  • TerryBpne Crazy Corner (@TerryBpne) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @MintyPNE @virginmedia I ranted & got nowhere. My wife got an engineer round and job sorted (V box on 2nd room) They don't care about customer service.

  • memcalea_maire Maire Cubbin (@memcalea_maire) reported from Wallasey, England

    @virginmedia Is anyone going to let me know why we aren’t getting the service we pay for ? Our tv services are still not working since 26th January . WiFi keeps dropping off too . Promised follow ups from a 3 hr phone call wait the other night didn’t happen either . Unhappy customer

  • PHEFC83 PH (@PHEFC83) reported from Liverpool, England

    @caffyhank @virginmedia They are shite. I left them 2 weeks ago due to the same issue. 100mb and was getting like 2mb. Although when I phoned up a few days before disconnection, they messed with my settings and I got 100mb!!

  • memcalea_maire Maire Cubbin (@memcalea_maire) reported from Wallasey, England

    @virginmedia Update : got through after approx 20 mins , fault still in area and no expected completion date . Home schooling restarts next week and I’m hoping it will be resolved by then as causing many problems for my children online doing the work set by their schools

  • Nicole_Baker Coley B (@Nicole_Baker) reported from Whittle-le-Woods, England

    @virginmedia Already tried this & the people who answer the calls aren't authorised to deal with it and so I get another promised phonecall which is never made!!! What are you going to do to rectify the problem that's been ongoing since November 2020?!?!?! @MartinSLewis #poorcustomerservice

  • Nicole_Baker Coley B (@Nicole_Baker) reported from Whittle-le-Woods, England

    @virginmedia As was promised (via, text, tweet and written correspondence!!) I have spent countless hours on hold to no resolve. I will await your promised call. Each day I don't receive said call/contact I will continue to demonstrate publicly how bad your customer services are..

  • Nicole_Baker Coley B (@Nicole_Baker) reported from Whittle-le-Woods, England

    @virginmedia Ooo a response! Now I have a dilemma - do I have to complain about the length of time it took to even try to help me with my original complaint? I do sincerely hope I actually get somewhere this time. The time I have spent trying to resolve this is astronomical!

  • srudd1992 Ruddy (@srudd1992) reported from Leyland, England

    @mrandmrsblandy @virginmedia I had the exact same issue last week, eventually put a complaint online and still nobody has been in touch from @virginmedia

  • Samanth32789588 #hellomynameis Samantha Miller (@Samanth32789588) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Your Customer Service really is so bad...looks like another hour long phone-call AGAIN with probably somebody AGAIN, who doesn’t know what they’re talking about. Definitely taking our customer else where after this 😡

  • memcalea_maire Maire Cubbin (@memcalea_maire) reported from Wallasey, England

    @virginmedia on phone last night for nearly 3 hrs trying to resolve a speed issue 16 not 350!. Promised a phone call today which didn’t happen ( again ) . Now on hold waiting for over an hour again . Have contacted Ofcom for advice as this is surely a breach of contract

  • ClaireW15691381 Clario73 (@ClaireW15691381) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia had no TiVo working for 1 week now. WiFi running really slow. 5th day of calling up and being passed from pillar to post, on hold for 45 mins only to be told I’ve been transferred to the wrong department, further hold for 35 minutes to have the line go dead!!!!

  • memcalea_maire Maire Cubbin (@memcalea_maire) reported from Wallasey, England

    @virginmedia Done this multiple times and yes there has been since 26th jan ! Was supposed to be fixed by 9th feb . Been on phone for 3 hrs , promised call backs and then asked yesterday to do the downloads . Your advice is going around in circles and not sorting our issues out .

  • memcalea_maire Maire Cubbin (@memcalea_maire) reported from Wallasey, England

    @virginmedia Thank you and I hope so too . No team didn’t advise what the issue is , just that there’s an engineer in the area trying to fix it since 26th jan . No expected date of resolve was told

  • memcalea_maire Maire Cubbin (@memcalea_maire) reported from Wallasey, England

    @virginmedia Tv services are back up and running but due to an awful month not having it working do wonder when it will go down again . WiFi still shockingly disappointing. 48 mbps is our download yet we are paying for 200 mbps ie what we upgraded to a few months back . Disappointing

  • babybio18 Tracy Abraham 💙💙 (@babybio18) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Thank you for your help, after using the app we need a hub 3 as we have an outdated hub.

  • ItsEdenExile 𝕰𝖉𝖊𝖓 𝕰𝖝𝖎𝖑𝖊 🖤 (@ItsEdenExile) reported

    @virginmedia We're paying for atleast 300mbps and getting 17mbps or less download speed. I work online and this is happening every day for atleast a few hours. I've got no food in the fridge and bills overdue because of this. PLEASE FIX IT NOW

  • ScienceOfDesign Nathanael Rouillard (@ScienceOfDesign) reported

    @virginmedia do your agents not respond to people trying to cancel? Because spending the last 10 days on hold and you STILL failing to hear any response to my attempt to cancel is completely unacceptable, rude, and feels scammy and scummy

  • JordsHigs Jordan 💀 (@JordsHigs) reported

    Just your daily reminder never to use @virginmedia for WiFi as they do actually do anything when their own service doesn’t work then claim they don’t guarantee wifi … absolute joke we’ve had this account for years and have never been told that … we need a new hub !!

  • ianphilthompson Ian Thompson (@ianphilthompson) reported

    @virginmedia No the service status has not shown at outage. It’s still varying in speed and the signal keeps dropping off and on.

  • dee_platts Dee Platts (@dee_platts) reported

    @virginmedia we had the 360 box about 4 months ago and it keeps freezing on my recordings then it deletes all my recordings, apps don’t work and have tried calling to complain and get no where! Absolutely fed up and angry! Please can someone help otherwise I will have to go! 😳

  • thejayfaulkner Jay Faulkner ♿ (@thejayfaulkner) reported

    @virginmedia they also said unspecified work in the area to do with stability issues could be causing it and it may be back in 24hrs ...though couldn't tell me where the work was, what it was, or when it started.

  • homoboy1983 Dan Waller (@homoboy1983) reported

    @virginmedia I'm absolutely appalled at the level of customer service, I'm a new customer and I left Sky to come to you, I have called in 3 times in the last week's, and told a manager would call me back, this has not happened. I'm so disappointed.

  • ElBeetroote ElBeetroote (@ElBeetroote) reported

    @virginmedia really awful connection problems since moving to you from @EE which was also bad. Can someone contact me to help please - making working from home really hard work thanks

  • EntertainerJoel JoelTheEntertainer (@EntertainerJoel) reported

    @virginmedia I am trying contact people and the WhatsApp message are bots! I had to go out so I can find wifi so I can sort this problem!

  • Dharmit66 Dharmit (@Dharmit66) reported

    @virginmedia Poor customer service. Can't even get a cancellation right. Wont let me raise a complaint either over the phone. Cut me off twice. Poor notes left on system. Will not be using you again.
