  • Mrspdyer
    Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia @mundaytom Not true. No response to complaint letter sent August and when we’ve rung “manager will call you in 3-5 days”. Been told that 3 times. Not one callback. Shambles.

  • Rebeccadundon1
    Rebecca Dundon (@Rebeccadundon1) reported from St Albans, England

    Hey @virginmedia I've been on hold for 20 minutes and I'm losing the will to live. Need help with WiFi password

    seanhannam (@seanhannam) reported from Chesham Bois, England

    @MikeCoxCowes @virginmedia @HP What hope is there for the smart home when even a wireless printer needs reconfiguring after a simple wi-fi network change?

  • IstvanOFatyol
    Oliver Fatyol (@IstvanOFatyol) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia It is incredible, what you're doing is just pushing the date on your service page to one week to another. We don't have Internet for two months now! What are your engineers doing? I am going to cancel your contract and I will go with an better provider. @virginmedia #virginmedia

  • Gosbo68
    Grant Osborn (@Gosbo68) reported from Northaw and Cuffley, England

    @Bazza_68 @virginmedia Up. Then down again. That’s the 4th time today.

  • SanderjoJohn
    John Sanderson (@SanderjoJohn) reported from Barnet, England

    @MartinSLewis @bbc5live Had replacement windows from a local company 18 months ago and they were excellent but I will tell you the worst people I have ever dealt with - Virgin Media, even worse than British Gas used to be.

  • manan2661
    Manan (@manan2661) reported from Barnet, England

    Hi @virginmedia . My internet has just completely stopped working today and I have restarted my router number out times today without any luck. Can you please help?

  • Mrspdyer
    Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England

    @rachel_uk_ @virginmedia Feel your frustration. 2 promised callbacks never happened,web complaint form doesn’t work. No email address for complaints. Sent letter of complaint 28/09z No response despite website saying I’d get one within 48 hours. Virgin do not care about customers.

  • PaulswainDJ
    Paul Swain (@PaulswainDJ) reported from Kings Langley, England

    @virginmedia An ongoing account issue. All I’m trying to do is sort it out. Your staff accepted my call today and then hung up after 17 minutes of hold time.

  • Andrew007Uk
    Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for trying. Three Exec Dept people in the last 10 days promised to call me back after initial calls - none have. I have put it all in an e-mail against what I believe is my reference number. I want the mobile internet service you've arranged to work.

  • jasonhier
    Jason Hier (@jasonhier) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Is service in London W13 working?

  • Missy_Ports
    Little_Missy2. MA. History🐝🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺🌹 (@Missy_Ports) reported from Barnet, England

    @SilentMugger @virginmedia Richard. don't bother. I've had various Internet providers and virgin is the worst. I've been without Internet for 23 hours and counting now and still can't get hold of anyone to help. I can't do my job and they appear to have issues all over the UK.

  • angelstorm13
    Ella A Cutler (@angelstorm13) reported from Welwyn Hatfield, England

    And it's down again. #virginmedia

  • PcPresenter
    PCPresenter (@PcPresenter) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia Any chance you can DM me about an issue? Trying to find an avenue to contact you through the website is shockingly ****. What's the point of having an option to contact when it's impossible to find it??

  • EnriqueGuadiz
    Enrique Guadiz (@EnriqueGuadiz) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia WiFi is an absolute total **** of a service! Reliable WiFi With the hub 5 bullshit! Should be thrown out of the window! No WiFi /service in HP2!

  • brobbo55
    robbo (@brobbo55) reported from St Albans, England

    @virginmedia sort out the wifi in AL4. Been down two days now joke of a provider

  • Missy_Ports
    Little_Missy2. MA. History🐝🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺🌹 (@Missy_Ports) reported from Barnet, England

    @SilentMugger @virginmedia It's been over 24 hours now and I've now been told it will be 10am tomorrow. I'm in North London, not in the wilderness. Its shocking that there's no Internet in the city. Maybe there service is getting worse.

  • PaulswainDJ
    Paul Swain (@PaulswainDJ) reported from Kings Langley, England

    @virginmedia I’ve given up for tonight. I’m struggling to deal with a company that has lied on record and taken money wrongfully out of my account. @MartinSLewis help!

  • browngaybitch
    BuG$y (@browngaybitch) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    Absolutely rubbish customer service from @virginmedia @VirginMedia_TV @VirginMediaCorp waiting for over 2 hours, first call the advisor hung up after I asked to speak to his manager and the second advisor CANNOT give me a reference to the call or let me speak to a manager

    @MelJanie @virginmedia I’ve just left virgin media. Their customer service is abysmal

  • JHNaismith
    James (Jim) Naismith (@JHNaismith) reported

    Usually optimistic on technological progress so disappointed broadband speed being > halved to 67Mbps next month by @bt_uk. @virginmedia can’t fix their “blocked duct” at front door, not good advert for uk infrastructure, I live in Jericho, central Oxford, not remote Highlands.

  • PaulOBrienKil
    Paul O'Brien (@PaulOBrienKil) reported

    @VMSportIE I strongly urge anyone thinking of subscribing to @virginmedia to NOT do it. Took over a hour to get through to customer service & they still won't fix their mistake. Shambles of an organisation.

  • dothefunkgibbon
    ArtVandaley (@dothefunkgibbon) reported

    @virginmedia Instead of silly twitter replies , when you know there is a big outage why don't you publish it on the website ? Have a message on the phone line also , would solve a lot of problems . Your phone lines were overwhelmed yet that could have been prevented .

  • Bigdeano88
    👑 NG Football 👑 (@Bigdeano88) reported

    Anyone else watching Sky Sports News on Virgin Media channel 509 having problems? The picture is flickering/bouncing and the text at the bottom is really blurry. Every other channel, including the other Sky Sports channels, is absolutely fine. Anyone else getting this? @virginmedia

  • Borgle1
    M-O-O-N (@Borgle1) reported

    @caz_fizz @MelJanie @virginmedia Virgin are terrible now. Since the Welsh and North East staff were laid off. The overseas workers are untrained and promise the earth but deliver nothing and cause hours of phone calls for issues that could and should be solved in 3 minutes.

  • CarryGaryUK
    ℂ𝕒𝕣𝕣𝕪𝔾𝕒𝕣𝕪 🇬🇧 (@CarryGaryUK) reported

    Virgin Media has such crap service honestly. No Internet for one week is just not good enough @virginmedia.

  • xhatne
    mmhmm (@xhatne) reported

    @Johnty14 @virginmedia Easy solution here, someone should invent a method to get the leaflet through the door, so it ends up in the house, but passers by can't see it so it isn't obvious that nobody is home.

  • NineIsTheNumber
    Elka (@NineIsTheNumber) reported

    @NLeespeaking On the other hand, when I reported a fault to Virgin Media they confidently told me it was an issue in my area which would be resolved in 24hrs. It was in fact a broken wire.

  • SuddenLife
    Max Pallas (@SuddenLife) reported

    @gloucesterglass @virginmedia Mobile phone signal in Tewkesbury is virtually non existent. I can’t send SMS text inside my home, there no 5G, and I get a weak 4G on Tewkesbury bypass. Fortunately, I have good WiFi, YouFibre 900mb for £24 monthly.
