  • ewart71 Jim Ewart (@ewart71) reported from Leyland, England

    @virginmedia It’s not fixed yet @virginmedia still intermittently losing internet won the wired connection also on demand still not working without dropping out and encountering errors - get it fixed as we are sick of paying you top end broadband for nothing

  • KathyyyLouiseee Kathy Louise (@KathyyyLouiseee) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia I need to speak to someone urgently about Virgin showing a missed payment on my credit history back in August 2018, when I cancelled my internet back in June 2018 (which was made incredibly difficult by poor customer service at the time)

  • 2013jamiepep James Pepperd (@2013jamiepep) reported from St Helens, England

    £1260 per year for a 3rd rate service #VirginMedia

  • CharlieIDIC IDIC (@CharlieIDIC) reported from Kirkby, England

    Whatever you do think twice before joining @virginmedia it might look fast on paper but the 100mbs service is running slow in Kirkby when it runs at all. Customer service just blames Covid @VodafoneUK gave me prices really quickly by a lovely lady working from home

  • shmike07 michael allen (@shmike07) reported from Seaforth, England

    @III_VIII_I @virginmedia I work for another provider,it never drops below 60mb anytime day or night so it’s possible to do it. Over subscribed in your area.

  • mrsyozzer1 Sara Hughes❤🦁 (@mrsyozzer1) reported from Birkenhead, England

    Yes annoyingly intermittent service, any idea when it'll be sorted @virginmedia

  • aboardy Alison Boardman (@aboardy) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @virginmedia spoken to your “customer service”. Advised that promises for call back on live chat cannot be traced and nothing they could do. The call centre apparently has no record of live chat conversations. Advisor seemed to blame me! For a media company very poorly connected

  • trev0rj0nes trevor jones (@trev0rj0nes) reported from Southport, England

    @virginmedia still no contact. Help me out here will you

  • TLClassless Ben 🌶️ (@TLClassless) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @Jack1295 @DanCrea_ @virginmedia Yeah pretty much what Jack said, other intro prices for a lesser package also weren't as good, v sad. Yeah I've been thinking about doing an overhaul of my whole network, this might be the time to take the dive 😂

  • topbalcony Tom Kelly (@topbalcony) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia I have been unable to access my Blueyonder e mail for 2 weeks now. I have tried the recommended fixes to no Avila and am told I might wait for an hour to have someone answer my call. £80 a month for a broken service is a bit on the steep side

  • imsophieeee soph (@imsophieeee) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia says there’s no known issues in my area, yet my internet has been down for the past 20 minutes :(

  • aboardy Alison Boardman (@aboardy) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @virginmedia reported slow speeds on Sunday. Promised a call back between 2 and 4 hours. Not received. Not getting the minimum guaranteed broadband speed yet paying in full. Proving difficult to speak to anybody. You appear not to care. #poorcustomerservice

  • CharlieIDIC IDIC (@CharlieIDIC) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia Please give me the contact address I guess I will compile the complaint in full and send it to whom ever overseas Virgin’s false advertising, breach of contract and not fit for purpose service I cannot see that Virgin give a toss about their customers or trying to sort internet

  • colinlit colin littlejohns (@colinlit) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Why is broadband so bad @virginmedia please confirm as ypur service is appalling

  • zozzaballs Zoey (@zozzaballs) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @SophieMEdwards @virginmedia Ours was the same, someone came out and fitted a booster few weeks ago but even that sometimes goes off. But this week it’s been awful

  • HelenLloyd66 Tweety Pie 🐥 (@HelenLloyd66) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia My internet and TV has been very spasmodic for a few weeks now which is annoying however it has and been down now for 24 hours. I am highly vulnerable and cannot leave the house no TV no internet this is not a service

  • 2013jamiepep James Pepperd (@2013jamiepep) reported from St Helens, England

    I don't have an ariel or freeview I rely on your piece of shit @virginmedia #VirginMedia

  • Stephjjmn Steph Nash (@Stephjjmn) reported from Wigan, England

    @stevenfrost3003 @virginmedia @skytv We had the same problems, went to Sky who are much cheaper with better deals and service, never looked back 👍🏼

  • TheICC_Sandra Sandra Jane Eyre (@TheICC_Sandra) reported from Southport, England

    Great service from online service (text) and very helpful call from technical support today from @virginmedia, new hub on way to hopefully resolve issues #customerservice #FirstWorldProblems

  • aboardy Alison Boardman (@aboardy) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @virginmedia also run tests. All came back fine. Significantly below minimum guaranteed speed. Average 20mbps. Disappointed that I was promised a call and never got it. Been on hold too long. Appalling service.

  • KatieRLever Katie Lever (@KatieRLever) reported

    @virginmedia Hi. Thanks for your reply. There is nothing on the service portal but when we ring up and put our account details in it says that there’s a complex issue and engineers are looking into it. Do you have an ETA as to when it will be fixed?

  • james_rkane james (@james_rkane) reported

    @virginmedia No temporary solution that is viable, they suggested using wired connection. So there is gonna be 3 people connected to one router by wires and in the same room answering calls. No they said there is no stock until end of Jan/ start of Feb

  • KatieRLever Katie Lever (@KatieRLever) reported

    @virginmedia any idea how long the internet will continue to be down in the SW4 area?

  • mswalesenglish Rachael (@mswalesenglish) reported

    @smalltext1 @virginmedia @virginhelp Sky upgraded us (and it took our bill down - not sure how) during Lockdown 1.0 and we’ve had really consistent speed since then. I know they’re evil but needs must. Had crap experience with BT and Virgin in the past; seven years with Sky and we’re still happy.

  • JamesTurner37 James Turner QC (@JamesTurner37) reported

    @virginmedia Is there a problem in SW11? I can’t connect to my home wifi.

  • Ben_E89 Ben (@Ben_E89) reported

    @Ronkabet @virginmedia Get Google WiFi, solved all my mate's problems, apparently Virgin routers are crap

  • emz_leic Emily (@emz_leic) reported

    @virginmedia But all I’ve had back as a ‘resolution’ is ‘education given’ in a box. Nothing more. Someone tried to call once but I was working so they said they would call again after 5pm, they haven’t

  • Sim_LKS Kahsim Lee (@Sim_LKS) reported

    @virginmedia Called the fault line. They said they will arrange for a virtual appointment from a technician so I should receive a call from someone to work out why my wifi signal keeps dropping. We complained 3 months ago several times. Still no resolution 🙄🙄🙄

  • dannyofblanc Dan White (@dannyofblanc) reported

    @TheSwedishChef4 @virginmedia @LozzaFox The outage in your mans head and his lack of broadband two separate issues. x

  • Valmade Valerie Potts (@Valmade) reported

    @virginmedia why is your customer service number not working at all!!! My father cancelled his account in October. You have sent him a welcome letter and demand for payment, yet every channel he has tried to speak to someone there has been silence!
