    @MichaeljonF Good question... just having a bit of an iffy connection last few weeks. I have a full on Google WiFi Mesh network... tried to iron out a couple of dubious hacks in the system... plus I’ve upgraded the core hub to the Nest WiFi Router now. Starting to suspect it’s Virgin Media 😂

    @virginmedia , Hi is there a problem with Virgin mobile, as txt messages are taking about 4 hours to appear. Thought it was one offer on 5th march, but just received txt sent about 9.30 last night.

  • alansbrown alan brown (@alansbrown) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia Hardwired is OK Wi-Fi is always rubbish and so can't connect to watch Netflix you tube it to other boxes as V6 primarily use Wi-Fi and not cable. Poor choice. A total waste of my 130 month and thousands on #4k #oled @LGUK TV I bought

    @virginmedia four days for an engineer to come and install a new router! Awful service for those of us having to work from home.

  • booshtukka Antony Kennedy (@booshtukka) reported from Epping, England

    Come on @virginmedia - if something’s broken own it loud and clear and don’t make your customers do detective work.

  • fizzyade Adrian Carpenter (@fizzyade) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia @vmbusinesshelp Been there. Tell you to use the residential service checker, which says no problem. Phone lines have long queues. Service outage is country wide.

  • Nico_Macdonald Nico Macdonald (@Nico_Macdonald) reported from Poplar, England

    @tomfenn8 @elondems There's a lot @virginmedia does well, particularly on the setup, online configuration and admin sides. But when it goes wrong they fall apart. After 4mnths of this we went @Hyperoptic and never looked back. VM uninterested in my feedback on its failings. As to the street boxes...

  • GT_B4_Kevin Kevin B (@GT_B4_Kevin) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia I had an email Monday saying i was due a refund but there was a problem with my information and to click on the link ! Of course i deleted the email as it was obviously not from Virgin media , they got my regon code rong as well as not using my name on the email !

  • fizzyade Adrian Carpenter (@fizzyade) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @vmbusinesshelp @virginmedia Oh you mean the web chat which is hardly ever available when there aren’t problems...and is now impossible to get on. LOL

  • sinajtojayz Janis Sinaj (PISCES) (@sinajtojayz) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia I’m disappointed to say the least. I’ve requested for my service to be cancelled instead you sign me up for a new package and add an extra £10 to my bill.i no longer want your service..!

  • frankroe2 frank #13 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@frankroe2) reported from Basildon, England

    @Mazstrict @virginmedia Three hours I was holding Friday, four departments, passed from pillar to post only to be cut off at 2 hours 57 minutes. Their service is atrocious.... Switched to Sky

  • boxer_junior Rocky Boxer Junior - MMA (@boxer_junior) reported

    @virginmedia ZR as I said poor customer service. You win. I did not want the virgin tv fixed as it’s rubbish and I can live without it. You’ve bored me to death. The internet coming into my home is poor. I’ll carry on paying for the internet that doesn’t work. Don’t bother answering.

  • Ban_Ana_Smith Ana Hernandez (@Ban_Ana_Smith) reported

    @virginmedia I have currently been an hour and 15 minutes on the phone trying to get hold of movals and disconnection team and they keep sending me to customer services. I can't spend my whole evening on the phone!! 😭

  • uncle_honka Honk (@uncle_honka) reported

    @virginmedia can you tell your resolution team that complaint reference C-2112201227 isn't resolved, cos apparently me emailing them 3 seperate times to tell them it wasn't and asking for a deadlock letter to send to the independent adjudicator gave the impression it was.

  • c_r_shaw Christopher Shaw (@c_r_shaw) reported

    @virginmedia Ah. Heading for day 5 then. The latest update we have is: We have identified the problem and an engineer is on their way. The estimated repair time is now: 14/02/2021 18:15:00. The Virgin Media Team.- ID: F008795191. Best wishes, the Virgin Media Team.

  • AndrewKrisman Andrew Krisman (@AndrewKrisman) reported

    @virginmedia hi Virgin Media, I’ve spent over an hour trying to cancel my broadband account via phone and internet and finding your customer service impenetrable. I know I’m not a celeb, but can someone help me close my account!!
