  • 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

  • emma1995_louise emma louise crowther (@emma1995_louise) reported from Wigan, England

  • woodsholistic Woods Holistic Wellness (@woodsholistic) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia @richardbranson Despite receiving a text message to say the fault in my area has been resolved I still have no service at all. TV, Phone and Broadband are all down.

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

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

  • coffiman48 Graham Duke (@coffiman48) reported from Maghull, England

    @virginmedia have been experiencing problems with v go app for 2 days keeps saying service not available and also remote app will not load keeps freezing are you having problems

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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..

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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!

  • helen_c_murphy Helen C Murphy (@helen_c_murphy) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia really not a happy camper. My package is getting too expensive & when I called to ask for it to be reviewed & reduced, the call centre agent INCREASED the price, while reducing the package. I've been a customer for 10 years for all my media services

  • coffiman48 Graham Duke (@coffiman48) reported from Maghull, England

    @virginmedia tv service down have been waiting for an hour on hold I have just moved a week ago to virgin and in 20+ years never had this problem with sky

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

    @virginmedia Hi Ty 4 the reply. Very frustrating when I'm using data at home just to receive watsapp messages. i spoke to someone yesterday afternoon. Some settings were changed & was promised it would elevate the problem, but as I described to the chap on the phone this will not rectify it.

  • 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

  • toshlfc anthony dowling (@toshlfc) reported from Liverpool, England

    @spuddy1878 @virginmedia Try logging out in your phone and then login on your iPad might only be able to log on 1 device at a time 🥴👍🏻

  • 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

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

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

  • SteveMulville Steve Mulville (@SteveMulville) reported from Seaforth, England

    @_currie @JoBlytheTV @kerriegosneyTV Looks good John and thanks for sending pic. At this rate i will be able to cancel my Virgin Media package ha📺👍never usually home in time🚚

  • glynfletcher Glyn Fletcher ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (@glynfletcher) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia are just great, takes 25 mins to speak to someone who cant help or understand the problem so they put me though to the "concern team" but I'm cut off whilst on hold !

  • richOBphoto Richard O'Brien (@richOBphoto) reported

    @ItsDaveClayton @virginmedia I would never use an ISP-provided router - drop into modem mode and connect your own. Admittedly, that's not gonna help the godawful speed you're getting into the house in the first place though.

  • DCC073 DCC (@DCC073) reported

    @virginmedia it ceases to amaze me on how such a large company can get away with providing a shoddy service! Paying for top speed and for the past 2 weeks still getting half the download speed!! Still waiting for a response from the complaint made 2 weeks ago! 😡 😡 😡

  • taz_29 tahsin bashir (@taz_29) reported

    @virginmedia i am having a problem with my broadband and after 1h waiting the phone hangs up on me. This is unacceptable and bad customer service I am virgin for the last 15 years and my bill is £120 a month, you should be ashamed of this.

  • dansouthcoast dan (@dansouthcoast) reported

    @virginmedia . the size of your company ive yet to know anyone who can get through to customer care within 2hrs! maybe spend some of the overpriced subscriptions on some more staff! BT will be getting a new customer call monday

  • MattB_79 Mattaclysm (@MattB_79) reported

    @virginmedia trying to cancel for DAYS, get booted off chat, states calls should be reserved for the vulnerable. Bill hiked £50 a month and won't let me cancel? Out of my contract period. Disgusting company.

  • Bellerins_Boots Hectic Bellerin (@Bellerins_Boots) reported

    Sky Q multi room is such bollocks, never works @skytv Oi @virginmedia hit me up, any deals?

  • Octopac Octopac (@Octopac) reported

  • CicconeUK Mark Rogers (@CicconeUK) reported

    @virginmedia No help available on a Saturday night, so no TV for us then? I expect a deduction on my bill, thanks.

  • GeekCaptainHQ GeekCaptainHQ (@GeekCaptainHQ) reported

    Upgraded my @virginmedia broadband today for another 18 months, only to find out later that day the lady told a me a price and my bill is £7 HIGHER than agreed??!! Seriously is it that difficult to stick to the agreed price. Poor show
