    @virginmedia its nice you’re offering new customers ridiculously cheap deals but charging prices through the roof for an inferior service for a customer of nearly 20 years #CostOfLivingCrisis

    @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!

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

    @virginmedia I don’t think so I’m still getting distorted TV on a few channels it’s frustrating as my complaint never gets recified I’ve spent hours on end trying to get it sorted

  • laticwolf
    Alex (@laticwolf) reported from Bradmore, England

    @virginmedia good work 👏🏼 issues with WiFi being down constantly as soon as £7.50 monthly bill increases comes in! Currently on hour 5 of no internet and not due to be fixed before 1am 🙃

  • BeardPunk
    Beard Punk (@BeardPunk) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Rebooted several times. Wi-Fi works fine, it’s just the VPN. Automated message says there’s still an issue.

    @virginmedia Async live chat (WhatsApp) sucks as you let me text you with a problem, let it sit for hours, then close it down if I don’t reply within 5 mins and repeat. I’ll just ignore all the comms.

    Rubbish network is @virginmedia can't recommend to anyone one of the worst customer service

  • jfrncs_
    John (@jfrncs_) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I have now tried unsuccessfully for 12 hours to use the WhatsApp service as again it goes around in circles if I am not immediately available. The number you helpfully provided hangs up after sending a link… please advise how I talk to someone about my account.

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

    It looks like @virginmedia name servers are not accessible so no DNS records can be resolved. A major outage for their services. Seems to be no comms from them. @BBCNews are you aware? #VirginMediaDown #VirginMedia

  • 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.

  • beffycuk
    𝚋𝚎𝚝𝚑 (@beffycuk) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia Yes, and every-time it says no issue, when there clearly is! It interferes with everything, the hive, the tv everything! Really considering going elsewhere.

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

    Mad that I pay £71 a month for 350mbps for @virginmedia Broadband 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?

  • chrispsaras
    Chris Psaras (@chrispsaras) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia no broadband since yesterday afternoon, told engineers were on route but still no update. Your offshore call centre is also unhelpful and not able to offer any further information. Please can you help?

  • jot_shoker

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

  • PolymathTim
    SorachiTim (@PolymathTim) reported from West Bromwich, England

    Zero Internet connectivity from @virginmedia now for pushing 12 hours. Resetting and/or powering down the hub does nothing, the diagnostic and fault tools just go round and around in an ever more boring circle. #LightningSpeedFarce

  • charlwalden
    𝕔𝕙𝕒𝕣𝕝𝕠𝕥𝕥𝕖🧸 (@charlwalden) reported from Halesowen, England

    @virginmedia how am I supposed to book an engineer? There are issues with the quick start installation I have and need an engineer to set it up for me

  • 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

  • Phil_Bonna

    @Angela_Griffin @virginmedia I have the fibre optic broadband for £23.95 month and the customer service is great

  • saqibsvideos
    ch Saqib (@saqibsvideos) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Sending me over bill again and again n customer service is even more worst

  • 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

    @virginmedia you have failed to install broadband at my new property as part of home move service. I have been promised engineers will attend each day for last 3 days - no sign! I’ve asked for updates - nothing! I’ve been told I’ll be contacted by Area Manager - nothing! Terrible

    Allison🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧🌻🦔📚 (@bookwormmumof2) reported

    @virginmedia It’s been sorted now, four weeks after two men from comex2000 dropped a heavy metal manhole onto our Internet connections You need to sort out your customer service, cause it’s absolutely dreadful. I told them that the 2 men had ruined this connection, but no one took any notice

  • frankiesmith74
    Frankie Smith (@frankiesmith74) reported

    @virginmedia I am so disappointed with your home move service. A failed installation yesterday. A no show on the needed cabling work today and 45 minutes of frustrating phone calls to your customer service desk today! I have been a customer for years and I feel extremely let down
