    @virginmedia 6/12 later we still haven’t despite phone calls and false assurances we still have not got number back contacted vm whom basically said it’s my problem and here’s the number to call no help .... it’s beyond disappointing

  • TinaLawrenson Tina Lawrenson (@TinaLawrenson) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia Have done each time wasting an hour of my time with no resolving .. not meaning to be harsh but not used to poor service wasted six hours already when you add up wasted hours

  • basher5000 (@basher5000) reported from Standish, England

    @virginmedia Hi the app says service is fine but when using text message constantly says not delivered but I only realise when I go back in later ... I think it’s poor signal in my home because I go outside it works ....

  • prdent73 Philip Dent 🇪🇺 (@prdent73) reported from Euxton, England

    Noooo!!! The virgin media wifi is down. We might have to start talking to each other..

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Adding a character and then removing that character worked. By pasting the password in, it wasn’t accepting the password regardless. It needed a character to be manually added. I’ve never seen that before on any password fields on any other site, seems like an API issue maybe.

  • Billzy79 Billzy (@Billzy79) reported from Liverpool, England

    @rteifler @virginmedia We have been a loyal customer for many years 👍😎

  • MarkHughes_ MH (@MarkHughes_) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia your internet service is ******* shite and branston shags kids on his little island. Gobshites sort it out

  • Nathann_B Nathan Booth (@Nathann_B) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia how can I put a complaint in about poor customer service and about a technician appointment being cancelled without being told

  • RedElectro Red Electro (@RedElectro) reported from Warrington, England

    Well, @richardbranson @virginmedia - been a customer since the Telewest days, but the broadband service is almost unusable now. I don’t know what’s going wrong, but you’re going to start losing customers rapidly, if you don’t get this sorted.

  • ResidentStevil7 𝕾𝖙𝖊 (@ResidentStevil7) reported from Hindley, England

    @virginmedia keep ringing me on a daily basis! Sometimes I can’t answer and they leave a long, silent voicemail! When I do answer, they put the phone down on me! I know it’s Virgin because if I try to ring back I get a recorded msg saying they’ll try again soon!

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Nope. I have username already selected to my email address, password filled in on both fields, security question drop down selected and answer given in the field, and date of birth drop downs all selected. There’s nothing else I can select or that hadn’t been filled in now.

  • danashurst Dan Ashurst (@danashurst) reported from Wigan, England

    @Scott_Helme Damn. That upload is faster then what @virginmedia give me on my cable line!

  • stu_the_supply Stuart (@stu_the_supply) reported from Liverpool, England

    Yet again had to phone @virginmedia as the broadband is not working properly 2nd time in two days they’ve had to reboot it glad I’m missing the footy again 🤬🤬

  • basher5000 (@basher5000) reported from Standish, England

    @virginmedia sat here with at home with no mobile service but when I use the app it says I’m getting 3G & 4G 👌🏻

  • mands4walkies Mandy 🐩🐾🐕🐾🐶🐾🦅 (@mands4walkies) reported from Southport, England

    @virginmedia Please note @Ofcom that @virginmedia has been down across south west London for 48 hours due to a 3rd party digging up a cable. Virgin Media’s network resilience; disaster recovery; and customer comm’s are inadequate.

  • gordonturner71 Gordon Turner (@gordonturner71) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Your customer service is shit and thankyou for destroying my driveway, Iam sorry I took out my broadband with you now. Cant wait till it finishes.

  • Sam_Cook_1986 Samuel Cook (@Sam_Cook_1986) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia disappointed to say the least. Customer for 5 years, out of contract, bill is £120 a month, Phone up to renew and negotiate, no offers. Despite Amazon being a new competitor for sports and the mobile experience being infinitely better with them. Package cancelled.

  • anfield_sports Anfield Sports (@anfield_sports) reported from Liverpool, England

    Sick of how bad our @virginmedia WiFi is. Off more than it is on lately.Yet they don't make contact with us to explain why or any money back for lack of service we receive.Couple that up with having to add data on to our phones to make up for it and fair to say we are p*ssed off

  • hayleybaker25 Hayley Baker (@hayleybaker25) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia problems again with virgin broadband and phone in my area not good enough.👎

  • danashurst Dan Ashurst (@danashurst) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Whoops. Maybe I should have clarified...My connection is fine, it's your packages that need to change to give more upload capacity to customers. P.s you guys deliver a solid service to me, and have done for years.

  • PaulFarrell_ Paul👨🏼‍⚕️ (@PaulFarrell_) reported

    @virginmedia customer service is shocking 🤯 4 different departments and still no resolution. Only resolution is a booster which I can’t order till 15th Feb, 4 days before I’m due to leave them. Partner is a teacher ffs!!

  • ToniaKats17 Tonia Kats #Freedom4GM (@ToniaKats17) reported

    @Disney30 @virginmedia No.. just barely any signal for the last 4 months! 😫😫

  • andyswiffen Andy Swiffen (@andyswiffen) reported

    @virginmedia can you contact me. Your online help is not helpful at all. Your automated calls tells me to 'turn off and on' and then Goodbye

  • Disney30 Helen (@Disney30) reported

    @ToniaKats17 @virginmedia Jokers ~ their price goes up all the time, and you get rubbish service

  • M14HFX MIAHFX (@M14HFX) reported

    @virginmedia Absolute Tools @virginmedia after 47 mins i get cut off @RIPOFMERCHANT! Cannot get through to someone to make a complaint now!

  • DanTHFC1 Dan (@DanTHFC1) reported

    @virginmedia Sort your customer service out, jokers

  • eddylev Eddy Leviten 💙 (@eddylev) reported

    @theOz1907 @virginmedia Sounds like the same issue here. It just cuts out

  • valleyboy1978 chris davies (@valleyboy1978) reported

    @virginmedia again the broadband either cuts out or the speed drops from 350mb to 20mb. Getting ridiculous, and you have a cheek to up prices and say its to make the service better. Can't even get through to anyone via phone, because you state you are to busy.
