  • 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.

  • RefinedSavage Dani Grim (@RefinedSavage) reported from Dudley, England

    Seems like @virginmedia is completely down in our area, I can't even access their support site to log a problem. Also it appears that @O2 is having some sort of issue, my mobile data connection is so slow that royal mail could be a viable messaging alternative.

  • HJMKent Howard Martin 🇺🇦🇪🇺 (@HJMKent) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @virginmedia You have just repeated, word for word, the last tweet you sent me, to which I replied! Pointless trying to have any conversation with @virginmedia because it just goes round in circles! The most appalling customer services in UK in my experience! No more tweets from you, please!

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

    @virginmedia It’s on both WiFi and wired. At this present moment I’m unable to get ANY network from the router on both.

  • 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?

  • k1El_w Kiel (@k1El_w) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia @YodelOnline your ability to deliver equipment is shocking!!! The customer service you provide is even worse!!!

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

    @virginmedia TV completely down this morning ,it’s been intermittent since September nobody helps me just fobbed off. Who is the ombudsman over you I can complain to? I’m no longer prepared to keep paying for services I’m not getting.

  • shelleex5 Shelly (@shelleex5) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia red button not working again!! @skytv, does yours work? #FedUp missing baggies after my shift 😪

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

    @virginmedia Hi, I’m getting around 80mpbs now, should be 350 though, when I try and test it says there’s a problem in the area, but no further information

  • JMEden_97 James (@JMEden_97) reported from Solihull, England

    I hate VirginMedia me getting stupid little lag spikes

  • OpiniatedOne1 Pretentious Opinions (@OpiniatedOne1) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @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

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

    Had problems with my TV since September now can’t get any live football or movies @virginmedia

  • stumccullagh 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?

  • _shannonC shanny C 🌹 (@_shannonC) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia haha you mean the same forum where they didn’t answer me for days last time, and they didn’t resolve anything???? waste of time. they told me to check the speed and check for area issues. absolutely awful customer service when i’ve been complaining about this for WEEKS now.

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

    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??

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

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

  • StuJonesMusic Stu Jones (@StuJonesMusic) reported from Kidderminster, England

    Hi @virginmedia, I am in Kidderminster, Worcestershire (DY11) and my Virgin Media broadband connection is very poor this week. I have checked your website & apparently there are no issues in my area. I have also restated my access point/router twice but no improvement.

  • _shannonC shanny C 🌹 (@_shannonC) reported from Solihull, England

    @LenFPS @virginmedia they don’t care. it only happens 7pm onwards but will happen until the next morning so I can’t stream or anything. and they’re telling me to write on a forum as if that will fix it😤

  • sinozza Simon Norris (@sinozza) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia I spent over an hour on the phone yesterday trying to get through to a customer service rep only to get cut off. Still waiting to hear on WhatsApp and been on hold this afternoon 45 mins and still holding???? Whats going on??

  • carlbcfc BCFC (@carlbcfc) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve just sat on the phone after work for 45 f*ckin minutes only for your idiot to cut me off!

  • MedievalDigigal Prof Leah Tether (@MedievalDigigal) reported

    @virginmedia Managed to get through earlier re. price rise and rearranged my contract. All good. Wanted to check it's all gone through, but there is nowhere to view your contract in the new 'myvirginmedia' site (it is not in My Bills - I have looked). Help?

  • DavidJCrisp Dave Crisp (@DavidJCrisp) reported

    How **** is @virginmedia Look up the opposite of good internet connection and you get close. FFS VIRGIN how can you be THIS bad I have just cancelled the direct debit. EVERY ******* MONTH WE HAVE ISSUES

  • Chris55858897 Chris (@Chris55858897) reported

    @virginmedia ITS ALWAYS IMPOSSIBLE TO VERBALLY COMMUNICATE WITH VIRGIN MEDIA, MAYBE ITS A GOOD IDEA TO EMPLOY SOME COMPETENT, PRODUCTIVE EMPLOYEES THAT CAN RESOLVE ISSUES/ COMPLAINTS AFTER THE CUSTOMERS FIRST CONTACT WITH VIRGIN MEDIA. JUST A SUGGESTION VIRGIN MEDIA.

  • upinsmoke66 Ben S (@upinsmoke66) reported

    @virginmedia Still waiting. Five and a half hours and still no help

  • ozziecjs 🇬🇧🇬🇧 British Independence #BackBoris 🇬🇧🇬🇧 (@ozziecjs) reported

    @virginmedia customer service is absolutely rubbish. When do get hold of somebody you’re likely to get cut off. They promise to email you, they never do. If you want good service look elsewhere, I am

  • scarletdave1 david williams (@scarletdave1) reported

    @virginmedia been waiting for 40 minutes and counting to speak to someone on 150. Any reason for this utterly appalling service ?
