  • Jackd_cpfc Margate Jack (@Jackd_cpfc) reported from Margate, England

    @money4nuffin @virginmedia This is the 1st issue I’ve had with them in fairness and not happy with the way they are handling it. Other than screen shots of other peoples phones I’ve had no updates

  • SamRSparrow Sam Sparrow (@SamRSparrow) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia service down in CT10 area, loads of people reporting this on social media etc but service status says it is fine. Can you please look into this ASAP?!

  • D4nBu7ke Daniel Burke (@D4nBu7ke) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    I sent a email to @virginmedia on the 15th January, I was given the following Complaint reference: C-150121161 And promised contact within 28 days, by my counting it’s been 2 months.....

  • SamRSparrow Sam Sparrow 🇪🇺 (@SamRSparrow) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia The service status page hasn’t updated since 1pm. Everyone in the area has the internet down and yet I’m being told right now on the phone there is no problem. I had an engineer booked tomorrow and VM cancelled that and now can’t send one until Monday? Awful service.

  • nghudson Nigel Hudson (@nghudson) reported from Preston, England

    @Jess_Guth @virginmedia @virginmedia are the pits!!! Dreadful customer service and they’ve tried to charge us for a phone service we terminated 3 months ago!!! 👎🏻🤬

  • SamRSparrow Sam Sparrow 🇪🇺 (@SamRSparrow) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia I am extremely unhappy broadband been down since 1.15pm. Booked an engineer. This has been cancelled with no explanation. Can’t book another. Service status says it’s fine but many others online in CT10 says there is an area issue. First person on phone hung up.

  • CaryAWright Cary Wright (@CaryAWright) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia @Dan13lBurk3 I spoke to tour customer service team who “guaranteed this fault would rectified by 21:25”. I explained the gravity as I needed to finish work for Xmas. They lied!!

  • bobvoyage Bob Voyage (@bobvoyage) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia if you think I am going to be talking to my family over Christmas while my WiFi is down, you can think again. Get the engineer out here or I'm sending you shite in the post daily.

  • MagicIce Magic Ice (@MagicIce) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @QueenieandBlue @RageDarling @virginmedia Im with virgin media mine goes down with really really bad weather like we are having now. But apart that i carnt complain about the service. Because my sky goes at the same time as virgin does in the bad weather.

  • jimmygreen83 James Green (@jimmygreen83) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia... broadband has been down all day and expected back at 5:25pm, still not working. Now, recheck the app and not expected back until 8am tomorrow! Seriously?! Why? What has happened? How can it be down for that long? Ridiculous, especially when people work from home.

  • Dan13lBurk3 Daniel Burke (@Dan13lBurk3) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia I’m not a technician, can you guys just let me leave my contract after this. Terrible customer service, even worse service, waiting to join @EE but stuck in a contract that only seems to work one way. You really are a shambles.

  • als_adventures Al's Adventures (@als_adventures) reported from Chestfield, England

    @virginmedia He has a letter as a review. So we need to speak to someone to cancel it. He’s being charged each month according to this letter. Goodness knows how long for.

  • SamRSparrow Sam Sparrow 🇪🇺 (@SamRSparrow) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia Why would my page have no update since 1pm? I’m only getting updates via community Facebook page and my parents. My postcode is CT10 2SW. I would also like to know why my engineer visit was cancelled and how I make a complaint.

  • SamRSparrow Sam Sparrow (@SamRSparrow) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia Already done it and there is an outage in the area and now saying won’t be updated until 9.30pm? How am I supposed to work?

  • CaryAWright Cary Wright (@CaryAWright) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia not had internet, for 24 hours. I spoke to customer services at 18:00 who “guaranteed it would be fixed by 21:25” I checked this 3 times as, at that point, I could arrange alternatives to finish work for Xmas. Now I can’t and still have no internet. Appalling!

  • rde42 Bob Eager Eur Ing #FBPE 🇪🇺 🇪🇺 🖤 #RejoinEU (@rde42) reported from Herne Bay, England

    @AgiBergman @JolyonMaugham @virginmedia They are both awful at customer service.

  • CaryAWright Cary Wright (@CaryAWright) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia @Dan13lBurk3 I spoke to your customer service team who “guaranteed this fault would rectified by 21:25”. I explained the gravity as I needed to finish work for Xmas. They lied!! I’ve now got to drive to London and work through the night! Appalling!

  • D4nBu7ke Daniel Burke (@D4nBu7ke) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia Nothing at all, I would like the complaint looked at today and I want a call or email. Not sms.

  • debrossington Deborah Rossington (@debrossington) reported

    @vmbusiness shocking we are a business and have been without internet for over 2 weeks and we’re promised it would be fixed but still nothing!! Shocking shocking service

  • Mr_Neil_81 Neil (@Mr_Neil_81) reported

    @virginmedia That isn’t correct. The first bill be correct as it has the discounts applied. The issue is that the contract states from July ‘23 my bill will go up more than double when it was sold as being fixed until March ‘24.

  • AdaMcVean Ada McVean (@AdaMcVean) reported

    @virginmedia Hello, I have tried filling out your form online for a broadband inquiry twice with no responses over a week. Is there a better way to get customer service?

  • wallywooly life is short, do what makes you happy (@wallywooly) reported

    @virginmedia Seems better now, how do you get to talk to someone about problems

  • kerrylynn21 Kerry Lenihan (@kerrylynn21) reported

    @baggiegirl1970 @virginmedia Honestly the service has been disgusting. They are so frustrating as a company can't get in touch with anyone who can actually help. Yeah I am. I'm at Mom's atm and gonna go into town tomorrow/Thurs. But it's a joke! Xxz

  • Chris_Kalsi_1 Chris Kalsi (@Chris_Kalsi_1) reported

    @virginmedia The connection has been poor, sometimes there is no working connection. It also loses connection for a minute or two several times a day. A technician came out to check, but I am still having the same problems. I’m assuming now it is the hub that’s the problem

  • TracyMcCaff Tracy McCafferty (@TracyMcCaff) reported

    @virginmedia entire service is down- again- in G44 5Ay. For the 4th time in the week. This time no phone, no TV, No Internet. can see 2 engineer vans outside but 'service status' doen't seem to have a clue and impossible to talk to a human. I WFH- sort it out!!!!

  • JesslovesPingu Jess🐧 (@JesslovesPingu) reported

    @virginmedia I suddenly haven’t got any service and your service tracker is not working! Can someone please give me an update? PE11 1HG :(

  • bbanyard Ben Banyard (@bbanyard) reported

    @WeAreOpenreach Our street has been without broadband/landline since Sunday after damage by contractors working for Virgin Media. One of the crew gave me the reference number SS1JPV95. Is there any way you can tell me when it will be fixed? Also raised separately to my provider.

  • chelledonn Chelle (@chelledonn) reported

    @D93Michael @virginmedia Ours is the same! 3 times we’ve been through the same with Virgin support ‘it should be sorted within 3 days’ and they don’t sort it. Ridiculous!
