  • k_veves Konstantinos Veves (@k_veves) reported from Ealing, England

    @LisaLewisWrites @virginmedia I told them on the phone, I feel like they are putting their hands in my pocket and still my money. Unacceptable and unreliable “service”. @virginmedia #virginmedia

  • lucyfrancis_tri lucy francis (@lucyfrancis_tri) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia I will again but i get the recorded message. Thank you for trying to help.

  • eatcheeselouise MarshmallowMedia (@eatcheeselouise) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia You’re not working hard to get this fixed… nothing has been fixed in nearly 3 months

  • lucyfrancis_tri lucy francis (@lucyfrancis_tri) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia your engineer has come in today, replaced the router + connections outside. wifi speed is painfully slow and keeps cutting out. I keep checking service status for my area 15 + running test. I’m working from home! What is the issue and when will it be fixed?

  • k_veves Konstantinos Veves (@k_veves) reported from Ealing, England

    @1Drubsy @virginmedia I have already filed a monitoring request for @virginmedia with Ofcom and submitted a complaint with CISAS. I had enough of them. They must face the consequences of their actions and I will not stop until this is done.

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

    @virginmedia Router WiFi connection is so unstable people are about to throw them out their windows!! Might be worth moving to @VodafoneUK to get a better price and service? #VirginMedia has been truly awful recently

  • BeesWingedEyes Sophie Joanna (@BeesWingedEyes) reported from Watford, England

    I thought Virgin Media were bad but then I discovered the fresh hell of @HM_Passport. Elderly distressed mother, stolen passport, two months wait (so far) for new passport, two promises for call backs that never materialised. Awful.

  • lucyfrancis_tri lucy francis (@lucyfrancis_tri) reported from Camden Town, England

    @johnalsochris @virginmedia I managed to speak to their customer service. It will only return to normal on the 24th August due to major work on their network

  • KeithBursnall Keith Bursnall 🏳️‍🌈 (@KeithBursnall) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia been down for most of the day (thank god for @EE mobile data). No mention of local network issues.

  • HunteLucy Lucy Hunte (@HunteLucy) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Not expecting a fault free service but an entire day with no Wifi when working from home is not acceptable in the slightest! The texts said some disruption not no service at all? Compensation is required!

  • HunteLucy Lucy Hunte (@HunteLucy) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia a text to say there may be disruption to services is not the same as no wifi or TV since 8am and not expected back on until 4pm?! Can’t speak to anyone on the phone either! Not acceptable especially when I am having to cancel important work meetings?! Furious!

  • CazDigital1 Caz Digital (@CazDigital1) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia hey. Board and doesn’t seem to be working at the moment. I’ve tried restarting twice and called to have a check on my equipment. That seems to be fine. When I restart it works for about 30 minutes and then goes down again. Thanks

  • Neilz1 🙌 N E I L 🙌 (@Neilz1) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia We have had no phone service for 4 days in the NW9 area are you able to see if engineers will be fixing this issue urgently?

  • lucyfrancis_tri lucy francis (@lucyfrancis_tri) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia You’re having a laugh!!! seriously! Did you read my first message fully? I’ve been running the test…so why do i have slow intermittent wifi please?

  • StantonWarriors Stanton Warriors (@StantonWarriors) reported from Brentford, England

    .@virginmedia sucks!

  • ElliottVern Elliott Gordon (@ElliottVern) reported from Watford, England

    @virginmedia I am still waiting for my tech support call back after the ticket being raised three days ago. I have no email still. This is really poor.

  • ImaginaryCard MoMo (@ImaginaryCard) reported from Hammersmith, England

    Nothing like @virginmedia's **** broadband coverage to kick off the week. No connection for 1 hour now

  • SteveDunn09 Steve Dunn (@SteveDunn09) reported from Harpenden, England

    @virginmedia Yeah... he he... when the broad band decides to work that might help.. when you get 'not connected' via ethernet and wifi the tests are a bit meaningless

  • ABSiddiki Abu Siddiki (@ABSiddiki) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Well…either an early cancellation or resolve the issue that I am having at your expense and not mine :)

  • k_veves Konstantinos Veves (@k_veves) reported from Ealing, England

    @MTB_Flyer @drewsonix @virginmedia Exactly. They are selling a service that they know they cannot support. And there is no one who can do anything about this. They have an army of hounds protecting them.

  • grumpygit80 Grumpy *** (@grumpygit80) reported

    @virginmedia Poor customer service! And misleading when trying to upgrade.

  • rudyobrien21 The Obtuse Muse (@rudyobrien21) reported

    @virginmedia I've just sent you all the communication since Jan19th if you're too lazy to read it then my assessment of Virgin is correct - You are incapable of resolving your own problem.

  • ianmaclean88 Ian MacLean (@ianmaclean88) reported

    @virginmedia Link to post already on this thread, you can check the required details there. Again, not acceptable to say you cannot help because something is still partially working. You surely have a responsibility to make sure customers get the service they pay for

  • vintage_Mommaa Mrs_Really_Tired (@vintage_Mommaa) reported

    @virginmedia The whole point of me tweeting is to avoid the horrible call centre and been on hold for over a hour . This isnt accepting to then been told to go call. !!!

  • laineymacd Elaine MacDonald (@laineymacd) reported

    @virginmedia The catalogue of errors in my signup. Repeated lies relating to my service, being left in a position where I was within 1 day of disconnection which I need due to working from home during a pandemic. Spending 5 hours over the course of a weekend on the phone to virgin.

  • suzanne_delarue 🇧🇧 Aswad Suzanne (@suzanne_delarue) reported

    @virginmedia since when's it been ok for your call centre help line staff to shout at you and hang up! Seriously regretting my choice to sign up with you!

  • Bobbyyxx_ Bobby‼️ (@Bobbyyxx_) reported

    @the_pieface @virginmedia Been with virgin for years. Never ever had a problem unless it’s down for maintenance

  • TTV_Proud_Soul Proud_Soul (@TTV_Proud_Soul) reported

    Aaaannnnddddd just like that, it’s all over! Due to intermittent issues with @virginmedia the stream is cancelled for today

  • grumpygit80 Grumpy *** (@grumpygit80) reported

    @virginmedia C-2201212976 - you have made NO attempts to contact me. That is why it's so stupid how poor your service is. No attempts to call my mobile.

  • C_JRowley Charlotte Rowley (@C_JRowley) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia It is frustrating no-one is able or willing to help, my parents are 60+ & feeling very isolated. I appreciate you can’t do everything but all I need is a direct line to a manager. As calling the number or webhelp gets us nowhere. I’m done I give up.
