  • 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

  • Daymoalexander Daymo Alexander (@Daymoalexander) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia I think @YodelOnline needs a good kick up the behind for being super late and not even letting the customer know! Not a great start so far #newcustomer

  • 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.

  • gemmak500 ᒍᗩᑎE (@gemmak500) reported from Chesham Bois, England

    @virginmedia To be honest you probably can’t, I’ve been this route often previously and nothing changes. Made to jump thru the same basic hoops time & again by staff members who don’t understand the systems, it’s a perpetual, frustrating loop. Still my service is dreadful.

  • tor_a victoria martin (@tor_a) reported from Barnet, England

    @elisjames @virginmedia Used to have problems in Streatham with Virgin before we change provider. Needed a new router last time.

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

    @virginmedia This is boring. I’ll reach out to third parties to resolve my account issue.

  • Johnboy82903002 John carroll (@Johnboy82903002) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia I have done, but there is nowhere to report a total outage, despite the message, and no estimated time. I have no landline or broadband, and haven't for 2 days

  • Johnboy82903002 John carroll (@Johnboy82903002) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia Done that, and still doesn't work

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

    @virginmedia Since w/c 22Aug my wife and I continuously keep checking the service status which gets updated and deadline pushed back. Nobody with virgin has broadband or TV for over 3 weeks now without explanation or a decent update

  • bendog90 Ben Shaw (@bendog90) reported from Shenley, England

    @virginmedia your business is great when things are working, however I have had terrible service for the last 24 hours- no broadband and differing explanations as to the reason- no follow up and still no connection.. very frustrated this morning as I can’t attend online meetings

  • guyrleech Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia Here we go, phones again. This is the 21st century where other communication methods are much more efficient. I'll be surprised if they do respond to me and actually help with my 2 open support tickets (both failing your SLA)

  • seiferxin1 seiferxin (@seiferxin1) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia really let down by Virgin media. I'm on M200 and am getting 50M at the mo. As low as 0.18M around 7pm and 10M around 8pm. Your customer service chat hasn't responded in 3hrs. I've reset router and changed channels. It's been patchy all week What am I paying for?

  • 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!

  • Johnboy82903002 John carroll (@Johnboy82903002) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Its a fault in the area, I have been given a fix time of 9am on the 19th for the landline and broadband, now my tv has gone down as well

  • ChristineAllado Christine Allado (@ChristineAllado) reported from London, England

    .@virginmedia hi virgin, we've not had internet all day and absolutely need it for work. Can you give an update for why this is our network status?

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

    @themotablogger @virginmedia Terrible in Dagenham too! At least 3 times a day it drops out and normally in the middle of an important meeting! Not good enough!!

  • Johnboy82903002 John carroll (@Johnboy82903002) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia Good morning, This is the 3rd day with no broadband. You have conflicting messages as to whether there is an issue or not, and whether it has been fixed or not. I have been unable to speak to anyone or log a call out. Can someone please help

  • ChristineAllado Christine Allado (@ChristineAllado) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Looks like there are issues that need to be resolved hopefully by tomorrow.. Is this something that might be fixed sooner and am I able to seek compensation?

  • 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!

  • bendog90 Ben Shaw (@bendog90) reported from Shenley, England

    @virginmedia I’m still stuck. No one answering the phone - my internet is down and I can’t get any service .. really need one of your service team to call me please on 07850 647 490

    @virginmedia Still not working. Looks live you've disconnected me a month early. I got an email on instructions on how to return my device. I replied to the email from David I think when I was trying to cancel. I'm having to go to tesco just to use the WiFi to sort this out.

  • reecekel reecekel (@reecekel) reported

    @virginmedia have the worst customer service

  • cbtsunflower Lisa du Plessis (@cbtsunflower) reported

    @glynny15 @virginmedia @virginmedia are the worst! We moved to Oz in Oct! Wrote to them in sept as could never get through on the phone. They are still charging me! Paid £200 in telephone fees from Australia to cancel- repeatedly. Those invoices and charges just keep coming.

  • croupieruk29 Thomas Millar (@croupieruk29) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I have checked that a few times already and no issues in my area.

  • cheztulip Cheryl (@cheztulip) reported

    @virginmedia Why is it so hard to actually speak to anybody at virgin ? I just want to cancel my dads phone as he is in a care home and no longer needs it. I Cancelled the d/d as I couldn’t get hold of virgin and now I am getting emails chasing payment!

  • BenjFrazer Ben Frazer (@BenjFrazer) reported

    Oh look @virginmedia I’ve called again to confirm my cancellation and you cut me off. AGAIN!!! So you won’t help me cancel online. Or over the phone and your web team are all “we’re only the web team” - stop harassing me with bills. I CANCELLED!!!!!!

  • jay_warda Jay Warda ⚢BLM🏳️‍🌈 (@jay_warda) reported

    @virginmedia I am sick of sitting on hold, only to be hung up on! I want to cancel my contract, but am unable to speak to anyone

  • StevieG_81 Stephen Graham (@StevieG_81) reported

    @bvinton @virginmedia @LeeWells82 I wouldn’t bother with them. Not worth the hassle. I’ve made 3 complaints in just over a month ha.... customer service is potentially the worst I’ve ever experienced.

  • Ginny22673801 Ginny (@Ginny22673801) reported

    @virginmedia I need help!!

  • KarlDyer15 Karl Dyer (@KarlDyer15) reported
