  • J8rde Jord (@J8rde) reported from Wellington, England

    @virginmedia Yes, and end up on hold , I don't work from home so have a very limited timeframe after work to contact you. It shouldn't be this hard to cancel or at least arrange a call back .

  • YasminMHx Yasmin 🍹 (@YasminMHx) reported from Oakengates, England

    @virginmedia £44.80 package change for a change we didn't agree to. Also, Advisor#3 has had me on hold for about 10/15 mins now and he's just accidentally "unhold" me whilst he was making himself a cuppa tea, sounded like he said "****" then put me back on hold again. 🙃

    @virginmedia outage in TF area. Internet has been down since 11am? Estimated fix time is 3pm? How are we supposed to work from home?! I hope you will be giving compensation for this.

  • YasminMHx Yasmin 🍹 (@YasminMHx) reported from Oakengates, England

    @virginmedia Seems like two out of the three advisors I've spoken to are blind and not willing to help. 🙃 Extremely unhappy with our recent service with yourselves. What happened?! Time to look at other providers I think.

  • kalliewood1965 Kallie (@kalliewood1965) reported from Wellington, England

    @virginmedia I’m trying to cancel my broadband & phone line but can’t get thru on the number quoted. Please help?

  • YasminMHx Yasmin 🍹 (@YasminMHx) reported from Oakengates, England

    @virginmedia He wasn't helpful, just told me again how much my bill was going to be and when it was due. Not helping resolve my issue at all. Our call ended and I've submitted the complaint online.

  • IAmAliAddams Ali 💛✨ (@IAmAliAddams) reported from Hadley, England

    Quick to get my money but on thing is for sure @virginmedia is having shite service right now

  • GOROBERT1987 G (@GOROBERT1987) reported from Oakengates, England

    @virginmedia Its saying everything's fine but we've been having problems where the router keeps connecting and disconnecting for some reason

  • Lee_Dsu colin forbes (@Lee_Dsu) reported from Wrexham, Wales

    @virginmedia joined a week ago. WiFi is crap. Sent a replacement hub. Still crap. Had several updates sent remotely. Still crap. Just phoned for the 10th time to be told there's an outage and it might be fixed soon. Although no outage shows when I test from here. Losing faith.

    @virginmedia 😩 think you need to look at your forums you will see the extent of this problem, ok thanks for replying even tho it was in public, not a good look really

  • Waynebel1 Wayne (@Waynebel1) reported

    @virginmedia your automated diagnostic system is about as much good as an ashtray on a motorbike. Telling me it’s not connected properly, Even though I have had confirmation of an outage in my area.

  • Bargainhunter85 Simon Fitzgerald 🇺🇦 (@Bargainhunter85) reported

    @virginmedia As I say down stairs is fine but upstairs is the problem. One guy said he would upgrade us but I don’t think that ever happened

  • defsdoor Andrew Porter (@defsdoor) reported

    @virginmedia routing problem to 188.138.75.0/24 for 4 days now - can you help ?

  • jinxs67 **** Dixon (@jinxs67) reported

    @virginmedia This is information provided by advisor. I have just been fed a constant stream of BS by your call centre. It was probably why they cut me off as they knew they were lying. And you still won’t provide the option number for complaints. Worst customer service ever experienced
