    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia can someone help me please? I’m about to lose my ****. Never ever known anything like this company. Now telling me lies on WhatsApp. Saying i logged an issue weeks after engineers had already been out to find the fault. Refusing compensation after 4 mths no service.

  • JohnMurphy9172
    murf (@JohnMurphy9172) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Just managed to get hold of someone, and apparently after over 10 years of no problems I now need WiFi boosters at an extra cost to myself all of a sudden, they couldn't tell me why just trying to squeeze more money out of me

  • obpls1995
    owen southworth (@obpls1995) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia can you explain why the moment I told your staff over the phone that I was disabled they decided to speak to me as if I was an idiot and then tell me they can't help me because I can't spell out my password despite telling them 5 times what the password was.

  • LindzDDub
    Lindz Devine (@LindzDDub) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia I have to say your Internet connection is ridiculous... for months on end, it's been shocking. I'm sick and tired of resetting my hub, I shouldn't be having this issue. Never had so much issue for the years I've had you and now, the past 6 months, I'm paying monies…

  • 1AnneMcCormack
    Anne McCormack (@1AnneMcCormack) reported from Billinge Chapel End, England

    @virginmedia I tell them to ring 999 or 0151 709 6010 if they want to report a crime. They hang up but they sound South Asian and their English is poor. I worry about other oaps being conned. Good luck chasing them.

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    Day 42 of no service from @virginmedia. Engineer meant to be coming again today, think I’ve more chance of a unicorn showing up to be fair. 🦄

  • DaveMbootlebuck
    DM 🦌 (@DaveMbootlebuck) reported from Litherland, England

    @virginmedia Mine has just gone down now. I can’t ring via the virgin phone because the phone is connected to the hub.

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia It’s to our address, we need a full repull and was told it would be done within 48hrs. This issue has been going on for months, they were just telling me to reboot the hub.

    Internet down no good when working home #virginmediadown #virginmedia

  • timmycooke
    Tim Cooke 🇺🇦 (@timmycooke) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Both wired and wireless. We've had 8 engineers out, a rewire, new hub and still endless drop outs. Was told finally it was an upload issue from the amp that supplied the box on the street. But still we're having issues. The 150 number is joke, make it simple!!!

  • John_Kelly17
    John Kelly (@John_Kelly17) reported from St Helens, England

    @CruisingTheCut I’ve had very few issues with virgin media - depends if you need TV though. Otherwise I’ve heard very good things about over the air using the three network or EE.

  • elisabethhilto4
    Elisabeth Hilton (@elisabethhilto4) reported from Lowton, England

    @virginmedia Trying to make a complaint - signed up to a deal I clearly asked not to be. Your website doesn’t work and can’t get through on the phone. Can someone please dm me with a way to speak to someone urgently

  • fos100
    Richard Foster (@fos100) reported from New Longton, England

    Since I moved, the @virginmedia connection has been terrible. I’ve had an engineer out, had a booster put on, been told on numerous occasions to reboot the hub. This shouldn’t be needed. Their website is horrendous to use and largely involves linking to help guides 1/?

  • fos100
    Richard Foster (@fos100) reported from New Longton, England

    @virginmedia It’s an ongoing issue and an engineer is due out on Thursday but today the internet decided it didn’t want to work on my laptop

    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia All the while taking my direct debit payments for a service I am not getting

    @james_bull8 DM me my brother works for Virgin media - he’ll put your whole package down guaranteed (internet + TV Package). Your getting scammed 😭😭

  • william27504693
    william (@william27504693) reported

    @LeeHarris @virginmedia The fact you seem shocked by this means 1 of 2 things. 1) You're really dense & didn't research how truly terrible VM services are 2) You went for the cheap option & this is the result

  • TomJJarvis
    Tom J Jarvis (@TomJJarvis) reported

    @virginmedia I was sold Gig2 2Gbps symmetric in June. The upload was never delivered at the contracted speed. After three separate calls got nowhere, your Faults team corrected it, then applied a £6/month surcharge for the speed I had already bought. 1/

  • chewytheleftie
    Chris Tindall (@chewytheleftie) reported

    @alan_reddish @sibelian62 @virginmedia They are a terrible company for internet. Fortunately for us we have plenty of their direct rivals who we use instead now after they made it clear our custom was of no interest to them

  • declancarty
    Declan Carty (@declancarty) reported

    @IrishTimes Perhaps someone like the excellent Patrick Freyne might investigate why, after all these YEARS, Sky subscribers in the ROI cannot get ITV channels, whilst Virgin Media customers have no probs in doing so. Is it still supposed to be a ‘rights’ issue ????

  • Ant78uk
    antony coyne (@Ant78uk) reported

    @virginmedia I'm guessing it's a @virginmedia issue coa it's only that channel when the same program was on sky sports main event it was fine is also fine on the sky sports app

    @LeilaniDowding @EE No idea Leilani. My elderly mother in law had issues last month with her virgin media line. It was down for 4 days, luckily she only lives around the corner.

    @MelJanie @virginmedia I was with Virgin for years but got treated like a piece of crap on their shoe with multiple issues so I’ve left! Customer service is non existent! They just don’t care!
