    Mad that I pay £71 a month for 350mbps a month for @virginmedia for them to only supply me with 40mbps, internet is barely moving, can’t even load basic web pages on my MacBook or phone. Problems in the Birmingham area??

    Ended up just reconnecting my TP Link router, it seems the problems were with my Hub 5 because everything seems to be working fine now. Not great @virginmedia

  • measlewolf
    Steve Lees (@measlewolf) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia Yes, the fault dates back from the 25th August and hopefully a fix will be made tomorrow, if not an engineer is booked for next week. When I finally got through the team were very helpful

    Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia hi I’ve had an ongoing complaint since September, I’ve had an email to contact yourselves but the phone number is getting me nowhere , is there another way of contacting the complaints dept?

  • nealesj
    Simon Neale (@nealesj) reported from Swindon, England

    Hey, ‘RP,’ again, @virginmedia is down. The lack of resilience is shocking and embarrassing for a major broadband provider. #VirginMediaDown #VirginMedia

  • measlewolf
    Steve Lees (@measlewolf) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia I’m currently on hold. My mum is in her 70’s and waited in for an engineer only for them to send a text 10mins before to say you were coming in the 26th. The original appointment was the 21st and her TV service has been down for well over a week.

    @virginmedia any updates on the VPN issue?

  • stumccullagh
    Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Solihull, England

    Not only did I have to go out to watch the football because Sky Sports doesn’t work BBC has gone down so can’t even watch MOTD thanks @virginmedia

  • ReissOmari
    Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    Fed up of these “intermittent” problems with my @virginmedia broadband.

  • measlewolf
    Steve Lees (@measlewolf) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia afternoon. I’ve been on hold for 25 mins and when I finally got through the line went dead after security questions. My mum has been without her TV service for over a week. Last night an engineer was due by 6 o’clock and never showed. Another text stating the 26th

    @virginmedia guess what ********* your system is down again. Useless pricks.

    @virginmedia I did, and told them everything what's been happening they goes we will sort out and I still getting emails from virgin I don't know why and problem is still there and bill getting delayed which I been told them about that and its keep happening since January

  • CaseyRain
    Casey Rain (aka S-Endz) (@CaseyRain) reported from Birmingham, England

    Had an @virginmedia broadband outage on Sunday for 2 hours. Since then, connection so spotty that I'm getting 10 seconds of completely dropped packets followed by 20 seconds of slow-as-molasses ping times once every 10 minutes.

  • kolapoagunbiade
    TheBosz (@kolapoagunbiade) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately, you dont have a ticketing system or cobtact email to track issues, rather a phone system that requires you to wait forever to get through to an agent. A/c number: 095063606. I was charged x2.5 of what i was tp pay.

  • AshleyDay1971
    Ashley Day (@AshleyDay1971) reported from Woodside, England

    @virginmedia Internet down again, 3rd day I'm a row. Can't even check status on your website as its not loading properly. When will it be fixed?

  • paragaz
    Garry (@paragaz) reported from Streetly, England

    @virginmedia hey. I am trying to speak to someone about my account but turns out nobody recognises my account number. Can you PM me to organise calling me please. I've tried the text message service

  • HJMKent
    Howard Martin 💚 (@HJMKent) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @virginmedia Can you please explain why, when I renewed my package in March you reduced my last invoiced bill to reflect the change & took by DD what you said you would! Now you say you will suspend my service because I underpaid? You took what you wanted!

  • Stephen12857059
    Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Nobody has called me and the WhatsApp chat is very frustrating and not dealing with the issue. This is very simple, I was sent contract paperwork with an agreed monthly fee of £86.75. Why have I paid two months of excessively higher payments. I should have left VM

  • jot_shoker
    Jot Shoker (@jot_shoker) reported from West Bromwich, England

    I purchased @virginmedia high speed wifi but they are not giving a proper service We are totally frustrated

  • Stephen12857059
    Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I called 150 today to speak to a Supervisor regarding my bill. I was told I would receive a call within the hour. NOTHING. I agreed a contract 18/8/22 and the last two payments have been £65 & £75 more than agreed. This is shocking customer care and service.

    @virginmedia my new equipment was ordered weeks ago & never arrived! I rebooked, but changed fed delivery date and heard nothing since!!

  • _xr4ch3l
    Rachel (@_xr4ch3l) reported

    @virginmedia complaints dept, how does this even work? I raised a complaint about my house move/disconnection and you've closed it as 'resolved to my satisfaction' - despite zero response from you. Impressive. Didn't even have to lift a finger!

  • Some_Nick1976
    Some-Nick1976 (@Some_Nick1976) reported

    @virginmedia It happens almost every evening from around 8pm to 9.30pm. It is also quite poor on a Sunday afternoon for a number of hours.

  • Khushal
    K (@Khushal) reported

    @RizWanKenobi_ Everyone’s on OpenReach lines, but I was with Sky first & their setup alone took 6 weeks cos they’re too incompetent though service was okayish. Now with Virgin Media for 3 years and paying for 1 gig to get a 500 Mbps download speed. Complained repeatedly but nothing happens.

    How virgin media buyers become Chad scalers > Change budgets every single day > Tinker with the ad account when everyone says set it and forget it > Obsess over account structure > Find the winning campaigns and double the budget > Wait 3-4 days, and if it holds, double it again > Watch the virgin media buyer win > Get called a virgin media buyer for it > Keep changing budgets every day anyway > Keep doubling winners and killing nothing on a single bad day > Watch the virgin media buyer win again

    @libertyglobal please ask @virginmedia why they sent me a new TB box without any remote to control it. (Finally they say will send one to reach me "in 5 business days" - keep paying for the service throughout this time!)

  • Foredeck99
    Foredeck (@Foredeck99) reported

    @virginmedia When I repeatedly, politely tell your tele sales team to remove my name from your calling list they fail to do so, I am sometimes getting multiple daily calls from you. Execrable customer service, 0/10.

    @virginmedia The formal complaint is already submitted. I'm not going back and forth on X too.

  • iam_samedoho

    @OgaHans MTN is one of the biggest network operators in Nigeria. EE, Virgin Media O2, Vodafone, and Three are the major network operators in the UK. EE coverage is very good because BT owns and operates it using its existing infrastructure. Most of the smaller network operators are resellers. They bulk-buy wholesale - network minutes, texts, and data at a heavily discounted rate from (like EE, VMO2, or VodafoneThree) and resell it to people. Their coverage isn't good because they are limited. They are only competitive on price, not on coverage.
