  • Brummie_Girl julie (@Brummie_Girl) reported from Birmingham, England

    Hey @virginmedia really pleased you are supporting #SaferInternetDay but it’s a bit extreme to shut down our internet and tv completely!!! No service at all 😫

  • Georgekafetzis George Kafetzis (@Georgekafetzis) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia They don’t understand what you are saying to them. I had to say my postcode 5 times phonetically. Also on the phone for 45 minutes with no resolution. #badtimes

  • iamsteadman Mark Steadman (@iamsteadman) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Hey, turns out you never DMd me. It was a scam artist and I narrrowly avoided getting my card details stolen (although I did give away my home address before I checked the username). That’s not on you; but thought you should know.

  • walters_nigel Nigel Walters (@walters_nigel) reported from Birmingham, England

    Still no service @virginmedia in the B38 area this is disgusting and we should have some compensation

  • Saq5000 Saqib👨🏽‍🦯 (@Saq5000) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia Usually I would swipe down with one finger and it would tell me that I’m on the delete option and I just tap delete to erase the program

  • Saq5000 Saqib👨🏽‍🦯 (@Saq5000) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia OK thanks for that and the screen has gone away after I clicked on the sea terms link but I still have the problem of not being able to swipe to delete on individual programs within a folder as this was possible before the update

  • lizzyhappyfox liz fox🦊 (@lizzyhappyfox) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia Yes same issues i'm afraid,no broadband,no information on tv,no recording of any programmes,virgin box flashing.

  • iamsteadman Mark Steadman (@iamsteadman) reported from Kings Heath, England

    @virginmedia Just want to see a service status page, like broadband companies have. 🙂

  • Deblord1 Deb Lord (@Deblord1) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia I posted the complaint to the address given on the website. It’s not my account and I have few details to enable me to register online.

  • matthewaucote matthew aucote (@matthewaucote) reported from Lichfield, England

    @virginmedia Broadband been down all morning in Lichfiled area any idea of issue or timescale

  • a_Muss60 Andy (@a_Muss60) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Sorry for my delay as I'm being treated for a heart attack I had on Valentine's day. When I tested and found v low speeds I could not connect to any internet, so I used my mobile 3g service to check for Virgin internet issues, which came back no issues in my area.

  • Vix_Leonard Victoria Leonard (@Vix_Leonard) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia @Leyjay17 Same for us also B31 hope you will be refunding those of us who have been without service since yesterday afternoon and according to your online info will be until this afternoon. I am unable to work. 😡

  • Saq5000 Saqib👨🏽‍🦯 (@Saq5000) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia thanks for looking into this in great detail and I only wish that I could go back to the previous version which was fully accessible and user-friendly unlike this version of the app. They shouldn't of updated the app because it wasn't broken in the first place.

  • Jordi_Amor Jordon Alexandria (@Jordi_Amor) reported from Birmingham, England

    @KellyGroupLtd @virginmedia Almost 6 months on and my complaint/claim remains unresolved. Despite being advised I would be reimbursed for damage caused to my home after VM install, I remain out of pocket! #poorcustomerservice #npsfail #dissapointing

  • Jeanybabesb j7b7 (@Jeanybabesb) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    Have been with @ThreeUK since 2005...15 years and the service has just got worse...time to switch! What you got @EE @virginmedia @O2

  • a_Muss60 Andy (@a_Muss60) reported from Solihull, England

    @BluenoseBeau @virginmedia I have 100mbs supply, over 6 months max received 76.4 for one test soon back to mid 20-30 worst being 0.7 I wouldn't mind so much if it was running at Ave 75%, not when it's seems to be around 35% mark. Oh it's constantly dropping the wifi too!

  • Georgekafetzis George Kafetzis (@Georgekafetzis) reported from Cheslyn Hay, England

    @VirginMedia the worst customer service known to mankind. I do not know how they say in business.

  • davesheppard72 David Sheppard (@davesheppard72) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia the attitude of your call handler this evening when I called to cancel my contract proves me right to go back to @SkyHelpTeam

  • karriecheer ♥ Karina Aura ♥ (@karriecheer) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia It says no known issues

  • Sammykins9486 Samantha (@Sammykins9486) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I just cannot find a link to speak to anyone online at all, regardless of whatever issue I click first

    @virginmedia who I @ for tech support?

  • Wee_Linz_ 👸🏻 Queen Wee Linz 👸🏻 (@Wee_Linz_) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia Hi, as a family, all 4 of us are having problems with the mobile network. This has been ongoing for a few weeks and despite assurances that the problem is being fixed, it clearly isn't. This is frustrating and we are not getting the service we're paying for.

  • nyreehood Nyree Trimbel (@nyreehood) reported

    @virginmedia I've waited in all afternoon with a baby and toddler (imagine how fun that is) for our engineer visit which was supposed to be between 12-4 no one has turned up. Can you help asap please? We have no internet and need to work

  • smudge258 gordon smith (@smudge258) reported

    @virginmedia They are sending me a new box out, as the other one is broken

  • petertrimbel petertrimbel (@petertrimbel) reported

    Hi @virginmedia we have no internet and the engineer hasn't turned up. Our time slot was 12-4 today. Please help urgently as we need to be up and running for working from home tomorrow.

  • kellytayloruk Kelly Burgess Taylor (@kellytayloruk) reported

    Appalling customer service from @virginmedia for my father. His numbers have disappeared from his account and he cannot re-add them. Trying to find an email address so he can sort it out (and likely get the PAC code at this point) but no email contacts on their website.

  • andrewprayle Andrew Prayle (@andrewprayle) reported

    @virginmedia Seems to still be a problem. But only this website. Everything else works fine. Weird.

  • DR_ADH Adam Hudson (@DR_ADH) reported

    @virginmedia OK thanks. They have had issues with the service and are fed up and want to leave, but my dad has forgotten his 'security question' and says he thus gets blocked on the phone. Note its not his online password. Can you advise? thanks

  • fableandfont Lynda Hewitt (@fableandfont) reported

    @virginmedia 7mths ago I bought a broadband and SIM package deal, but the SIM never arrived. I have rung customer service so many times, yet no one has sorted this. I am getting billed for a SIM I don’t have and your customer service is a farce!!!!!! Please advice on WHO CAN HELP

  • JohnHutchinson John (@JohnHutchinson) reported

    @virginmedia Too much to tweet I’m afraid... constant issues for a month since house move. I have a complaint ref now, but just need to be contacted about this, despite endless “texts” to a number that never contacts back. This matter will NOT be resolved within 28 days it seems...
