  • Temple64Sybil John Smith (@Temple64Sybil) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    Feel like killing someone, Virgin Media gone down again while watching football so missed second half, total ******* bollocks. Fuming.

  • elisetx Elise Tapper (@elisetx) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia your service is AWFUL!! Been cut off twice and my problems are still not solved 😡

  • paulpavli Paul (@paulpavli) reported from Slough, England

    @virginmedia Been trying to speak to someone the last two day. Was told yesterday (when I did get through) that broadband was ok ( clearly it wasn’t) and that someone would escalate and call back today... No call today and broadband slow and intermittent again, has been for 4 weeks now, help!

  • szdar Shumailla (@szdar) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @virginmedia sick to death of this absolutely rubbish WiFi. Rebooted several times, phoned your team, even installed a new router. Nothing seems to improve it and you supposedly pride yourself on being the best. Please fix this issue.

  • stuartshawcross stuart shawcross (@stuartshawcross) reported from Berkhamsted, England

    Hi @virginmedia we rent a property with virgin fibre, download speed is fast but upload very low. I can’t login to account as it’s not mine. Suggestions?

  • CridlandKeith Keith (@CridlandKeith) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Still not been able to get through to the support team 😢

  • rita_capaldo Rita capaldo (@rita_capaldo) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia can you send me a letter I need to know what the problem is and when it will be fixed.

  • gemmajarrett Gemma Jarrett (@gemmajarrett) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I'm trying to get hold of someone to talk about my account and service but can't get through to anyone - how can I talk to someone?

  • Spinnofflondon Spinnofflondon (@Spinnofflondon) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been here 10 days .. I’m paying for a service that you are not providing whilst trying to work from home . Please just provide that rather than promised and vague fix it dates

  • fabparra fabiano (@fabparra) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia 4 days??!!!! What about 2 people doing home office?! Is Virgin Media pay for it?! I understand technical issues happen, but I don’t understand incompetence to deal with problemas. Virgin Media is a expensive service and it’s unacceptable this lack of good service to its customers

  • paulpavli Paul (@paulpavli) reported from Slough, England

    @virginmedia All this was done yesterday, no help. Would like to chat to someone to discuss the router. Funny thing is prices have just gone up and we have the worse coverage ever!

  • paulstevenlewis Paul Lewis (@paulstevenlewis) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Finally got through to Retentions by phone & unlike their text service they were helpful & resolved it with an improved offer - something the text people insisted was impossible & that nobody else would be able to do more. Awful to think others will be ripped off by this attitude

  • Spinnofflondon Spinnofflondon (@Spinnofflondon) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia It’s very usual for Virgin in Hampstead but would be nice if you were in a bigger hurry to fix it , especially when we are all working from home

  • OohLookItsEmma Emma Hoyle (@OohLookItsEmma) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia a conundrum. If I call your service centre to cancel my service I get routed to the website that doesn’t allow me to cancel or I get routed through to a team that don’t answer. Do I just cancel my direct debit? Then at least you’ll know I’m not longer your customer.

  • stephen_j_moran Stephen Moran (@stephen_j_moran) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @virginmedia We're expecting an engineer visit between 4 and 7pm today. It's 5pm now and no sign yet. Getting dark outside. If it's not fixed this time, we will have to think about switching to another service supplier, which we really don't want to do.

  • leeleyland3 lee leyland (@leeleyland3) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia you have without doubt the the worst internet service going, your customer service is shocking !!! I spent over 12 hours on the customer service chat going around and around only to have them terminate the conversation. Next day "how can we help"

  • fabparra fabiano (@fabparra) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia I’ve tried the basics and First time I called customer services the message was “we are very busy at the moment, please try again later” and later I waited 30min to speak to someone who didn’t sort the problem out. Instead she told me the technician will visit in 4 days!!! What??

  • paulstevenlewis Paul Lewis (@paulstevenlewis) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Got through on text: they offered to cancel the increase & restore the £44 price, but refused to match the £40 as it’s “only for new customers”! They referred me to Retentions, but they have now withdrawn even that offer & insist I must pay the full £47.50! Just unbelievable!

  • jenrun Jennie Runnalls (@jenrun) reported

    @virginmedia Renewed my contract yesterday. Told them I also had a fault with my box. Engineer checked and is faulty but sending the same old set top box that isn’t even compatible with itv hub. Why don’t you allow loyal customers to have a latest box like you do new customers? Will cancel!

  • Mojitone Mojitone 🇺🇦 🇪🇺 (@Mojitone) reported

    @virginmedia So I can't help him get in contact with you? That's all we need. Aren't communications what you do?

  • Zilvina13722049 Zilvinas (@Zilvina13722049) reported

    @virginmedia Worst company ever.

  • weeksjm19 Jonathan Weeks (@weeksjm19) reported

    @virginmedia Why am I still getting WiFi drop outs. It’s happening on a regular basis, ever since we had an overnight power cut last month. Done all the tests rebooted etc but it still happens. Is there a problem with the hub? No warning lights come up. This is getting beyond frustrating!!

  • CoopsSuzy Suzy Coops (@CoopsSuzy) reported

    @virginmedia Hi I am still having issues! The box/kit hasn't been delivered and was due last Thursday! I haven't had any notification from yodel that it's being despatched!

  • thomas_thomson Thomas Thomson (@thomas_thomson) reported

    @Davidm0nty @virginmedia I am in a similar position David, @virginmedia shared my personal information and account details to another customer via email and I’m still waiting to hear from them 18 days later.

  • petergoodwin92 Peter Goodwin 🦐 (@petergoodwin92) reported

    @virginmedia All I get when trying to manually connect to Virgin is "SIM Card does not allow a connection to this network" But it should as it is a Virgin SIM and contract

  • Auds40 Audrie Moorhouse (@Auds40) reported

    @virginmedia spoke Friday as had debt collect letter. Acc credited now but not receiving extra as was promised. V not interested in actually addressing complaints even more so as now not with V as not available at new home. U have worst CS. Don’t care if lose customers as another will replace

  • baileyda86 Dom (@baileyda86) reported

    @virginmedia hiya, I booked a collection day for one of your agents collect the hub and TV box, can I cancel this? It will just be easier to use collect+ you sent with the packaging.

  • PhilC1984 Piccle (@PhilC1984) reported

    @virginmedia Why can you not simply switch my broadband speed to the 1gb rate that I am paying for? I'd rather that, than to raise a complaint.
