  • benrobart 「Ben Ⓥ」 (@benrobart) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia @Friendly_Sparky Your service is a joke and your support is even worse. You could throw a bunch of monkeys in a room and they'd do a better job.

  • RussShaw1 Russ Shaw (@RussShaw1) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @GavinJPoole @virginmedia I have been following your service nightmare with @virginmedia - I thought these experiences with them were a thing of the past, but clearly not!

  • BarryDanser BarryDanser (@BarryDanser) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia I dont have apps like this. I juat want you to fix your broadband. Stop sharing it with so many people

  • Patrick60425645 Patrick Barrett (@Patrick60425645) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Yes, fix the navigation, have serious look at you chat app, as in the Name chat, is not what your application does, you using AI/ word recognition and you still list the reply as Agent. Having spent 10 min on your site. No thanks Virgin.

  • artteachjess Jessica Austin Esq. MA MCCT (@artteachjess) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia @StigAbell Love the way you reply to someone with large media presence but no reply to my complaint!

  • goldenhornet Nick Foster 🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@goldenhornet) reported from Watford, England

    @virginmedia All devices, wired and wireless. Status tracker says no known issues, which is contrary to what service desk told me when I called last night. They said there's a "short term network issue".

  • warrenbeckwith Warren Beckwith (@warrenbeckwith) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia This is more to the fact that your teams were ill advised about the products I have which then cut off our service, the time it takes to sort issues. With 3 V6 3 HD the big package not be classed as VIP when clients with basic receive that privilege is a joke! #compensation

  • paul2v Paul B Toovey (@paul2v) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia my mum is trying to sort her mobile as she has a sim free phone and wants a bank sim to continue using her existing number in her new phone apparently your customer services were rude to her and put phone down on her

  • adsz88 Adam (@adsz88) reported from Potters Bar, England

    @virginmedia 3rd night running I sit down to use internet and 3rd night it’s not working! Turn on/off router, follow every online advice, phone call centre who say it’s a short term issue when I get through! I rely on internet access in eve to carry out work. Unacceptable!

  • gary2323 G.Marshall Gleghorn (@gary2323) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia All working now but customer service has been a nightmare

  • ssb316 Ssb316 (@ssb316) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Please can you confirm the discount billing process 4 outages and counting this month... Also appears that your Text me alert via the “Track this issue” does not work

  • gary2323 G.Marshall Gleghorn (@gary2323) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Called from Bangalore touting me to renew contract offering me upgrades but lied about cost, sorted this out, then VM continued to bill me at rate I never agreed too, then we had four days of outages, then Bangalore team just disconnect if they cannot sort out a problem

  • lazis002 Stefan lazic (@lazis002) reported from Watford, England

    @virginmedia internet's been down all day. The support page page previously said there was an issue and would be fixed by 4pm , but now it says there is no issue. Post code is wd19 7ht. Please tell me when I will have internet / phone again.

  • Darryl1712 Darryl Robertson (@Darryl1712) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia Yeah all channels, checked service status already and its showing all is ok

  • benedictm The Bends (@benedictm) reported from Kensington, England

    @JimmyRowe1994 @Toadsanime Dude, I'm kidding with you. I've had Virgin media nearly 10 years. They are great but it makes me laugh when it goes down and no one ever seems to know why. 😄

  • Hebsie Heather Bower (@Hebsie) reported from Camden Town, England

    @johnnyjimbob @LeftieK13 @RLong_Bailey Repairs still come under the heading of infrastructure, also upgrades. Don’t really care who owns Virgin media now, the point was excess profits go to shareholders, not to improving service. I remember when post office, rail and energy all nationalised. Not a crazy ****** system.

  • benedictm The Bends (@benedictm) reported from Kensington, England

    @JimmyRowe1994 @Toadsanime Ah yes, virgin media and their amazing service that works unless it doesn't 😃 (To be clear I wouldn't go near BT for any service ever)

  • annikaallen Annika Allen (@annikaallen) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I need to book an engineer to come out but every time I go through your automated system it cuts me off telling me to go online or that my hub is offline. I know it is. That's why I'm calling. There's a wire broken. It's not switched off. Pls help. Thanks 💛

  • martinTayx Martín Pane 🐦 (@martinTayx) reported from Camden Town, England

    @Strippin @btbusinesscare @WeAreOpenreach Internet I'm the UK is shockingly awful. It took Virgin Media 6 months to install a cable to my house after repeatedly stating it would only take 1-2 months. 🙈

  • qshahawan Man of Vision (@qshahawan) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia very disappointed in the service you are providing. I am being billed they bloody amount for the last few months where i have downgraded the bloody service.

    @virginmedia We have used up all our allowance my O2 mobile for the month again because wifi just freezes or non responsive or just slow.

  • spenerella Spenerella (@spenerella) reported

    @virginmedia We need to cancel as we have to move home

  • Ester_Laura83 ester83 (@Ester_Laura83) reported

    @virginmedia @Ester83 There is an SNR issue,apparently first reported 14th April (but wasn't affecting me then hence, along with the engineer visit me, not being convinced that's the actual problem at my house unless someone actually comes to check and confirms it) 1/2

  • barrygargett Barry Noel Gargett (@barrygargett) reported

    @virginmedia I received a call from your sales team as I left 18 months ago. Nice chap as it happens. I told him I left after my complaint went to Board level and I would never use your company again - we both laughed. How do I ensure that your company never calls me again?

  • RedFoxBandit Martin (stay at) Homent 🦊 (@RedFoxBandit) reported

    @virginmedia Since I moved last week, my virgin media is showing I have no services or package - so sky sports app not working.

  • liz_brown2020 Liz (@liz_brown2020) reported

    @virginmedia I called you last week about a wire coming from my **** house(never had virgin) it's a gable end house fence took down by council they said you need to remove the wire its dangerous kids crossing the grass imagine if any are hurt because you didn't come out to remove

  • mart__thomas Martha Thomas (@mart__thomas) reported

    @virginmedia I made a formal complaint regarding my situation 1.5 weeks ago, was told I’d be contacted in 24-48 hours and have heard nothing. Since then, have spoken to 3 more people all of who have told me different things regarding my options (moving homes/ change of ownership/ terminating)

  • traveltom84 Tom Stokes (@traveltom84) reported

    @virginmedia This is all quite a lot of effort being laid at my door. I'm already in a 6 month battle with Openreach to repair some of their broken covers. Shouldn't you, the responsible party, be more accountable? I've done my bit, several times, by informing you.

  • rapidriversclub RapidDriversClub (@rapidriversclub) reported

    @virginmedia I have tried on more than one occasion. Awaiting work that should have been completed by the 21st to rectify the problem. I guess if it's still the same this time next week I will know the work hadn't been done.
