  • alandean1878 Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I've been on to the Service Status line, no issues. Used My Virgin Media app no issues raised with Broadband or TV provision. Still picture break-ups on some channels.

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia Connection problem with Apps. Phone & told to give no. underneath box. Difficult 2 bend down, hold box & phone. How can there b a problem when the TV in other room is working? Sick of having a text to do it myself or ask 4 tech help from someone who can't help.

  • Holty_74 Nick holt (@Holty_74) reported from Wallasey, England

    @virginmedia service has been down on the Wirral most of the day. Any idea when a fix will happen?

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

    @virginmedia Looks like your engineer told me he would book a follow up appointment then didn’t bother. Your customer service lately and ability to provide a service are very lacking

  • Krys_yogi Ada Yoga🧘🏾‍♀️ (@Krys_yogi) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia you guys are really ***************. What's with the network outage?? Please fix this!

  • alandean1878 Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia It's worst on 601 BBC News where either part or all of the screen pixilates. But it happens on other channels to a lesser degree.

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

    @virginmedia just found out as I’m an oomph customer on volt I should get broadband of 350 but getting 53 jitter is beyond a joke too. What happened?

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

    @virginmedia The team have booked an engineer but advised changes on router settings that have made it a bit better until the engineer can fix it properly

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

    @virginmedia I don’t want to talk to an Indian call centre going off a script I want a reasonable human who doesn’t work from a script and can help me

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

    @virginmedia are useless fixing an area so they break your broadband then get you to do lots of useless tests that show the same thing then ask for a reset that will not fix anything

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

    @virginmedia Every time it fails I have never been asked to do a reset. The last time they checked their system and sent an engineer who put attenuation on it as the jitter was high and the system showed a fault their end

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

    @virginmedia They’ve sent a signal to it which they say will fix it but it’s even worse now

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

    @virginmedia I need to make a complaint and submit my bill for time wasted with tests that show me what I already know….it’s faulty and has been on and off for a long time and each fix doesn’t fix it

  • Krys_yogi Ada Yoga🧘🏾‍♀️ (@Krys_yogi) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Just seen an update that there's an issue in the area. How long is this gon take to fix? Some of us have work and need to be online. This is rather frustrating

  • alandean1878 Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia Still a problem. Programmes we recorded Thurs & Friday are unwatchable (& not available on Catch Up for some reason)

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

    @virginmedia He swapped out the router said that solved a bit of the issue but speeds still not as expected then said he would have to book a longer appointment to figure out the issue so he went. Waiting for another appointment

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

    @virginmedia can you remind me the link for customer complaints please. Engineer lied, lost working time now still not right and I refuse to keep paying when I’m not getting a steady working internet let alone at the volt speeds as advertised

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia @primevideosport told me my TV not connected to Internet which it is. Was working and then wasn't. Now working but really sick of reoccurring problems when my @primevideosport goes off & told it's an Internet problem. If Internet problem wouldn't I lose everything?

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

    @virginmedia I already spent ages on the phone on Friday when I needed internet but you were doing essential works. I study, work and have a young daughter I don’t have time for long phone calls for a service that should work.

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

    @virginmedia offer volt speeds of 350 paying for 200 getting 60ish it’s ridiculous I’ve spent hours sending them proof when jitter high they think resetting it all and spending more hours getting everything back up will work and I don’t it’s only been this bad this time since

    @virginmedia how can I get through to your complaints team without having to spend hours either on the phone or online chat? I've currently spent over 3 hrs trying to resolve a problem & had the WORST customer service! @MoneySavingExp @Offcom

  • Whats_UpWithU P (@Whats_UpWithU) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve tried that and still gave the issue. We’re going round here in VM circles as usual.

  • hammerhastie316 Sean Hastie (@hammerhastie316) reported

    @virginmedia I have they said probably a software issue but I can see other people having same problem wanted to raise it so people are aware

  • BoomRadioUK BoomRadioUK (@BoomRadioUK) reported

    @virginmedia We are a radio station - not a customer. But our listeners are your customers!

  • Jimbobaroo James (@Jimbobaroo) reported

    Why is it on the motorway everyone slows down to 50 cos there’s a van up front with hi-viz stripes thinking it’s police. It’s always a ******* Virgin Media van.

  • ZionistWolf Karl (@ZionistWolf) reported

    @virginmedia All my wifi devices keep dropping out, run the diagnostics and I get error with wifi, my network scanner also indicates it keeps dropping.

  • caoimhec caoimhe (@caoimhec) reported

    Are you unemployed?... Not very bright?...do you hate people?.. Are you a fan of call cutting? ...Are you a **** liar? Do you want to do the bare minimum and still get paid? @virginmedia Are the company for you #virginmedia #jobsearch

  • caoimhec caoimhe (@caoimhec) reported

    @virginmedia You mean raise my complaint AGAIN...because I've been through this 100 times with your company. I was told it was raised. You can't be the worst company if you just don't customers raise complaints I guess?

  • hammerhastie316 Sean Hastie (@hammerhastie316) reported

    @virginmedia hello I have internet and WiFi but won’t connect to my sky q box software issues??

  • caoimhec caoimhe (@caoimhec) reported

    @virginmedia No...funnily enough couldn't find a complaint as my whole account had been purged when your circus clowns reset up the other customer at my address 🙄 🤯 He went off to review with his manager and said he would call me back...
