  • Ebike_holidays
    National Forest E-Bike Holidays (@Ebike_holidays) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England

    @virginmedia We followed instructions to switch phones to fibre optic. Can dial out but can’t get calls. It’s really upset my mother in law as she is vulnerable and we are her emergency support. Our mobile signal is very poor at home, so she is frightened she can’t contact us.

    @virginmedia We had issuse with our service, and was told we would need new cables. We the new cables installed. They left cabels hanging in the garden which has since been removed. Our grass is ruined (I have photos) it looks like next doors cable are also under or grass????

    First World problems. Internet dropping. Or should I say, @virginmedia broadband. Its awful, drops completely three / four times a week. Sometimes several times a day for a few seconds. Can't wait until I can give notice!

    Jean Thierry 💙 (@MutliRaceMan) reported from Birmingham, England

    @KellyQuilt @virginmedia Virgin are hopeless for ease of contact. My daughter was with them and the service wasn’t at all good. This nonsense about calling them at a time to suit them is just ludicrous. They need to admit that they (& others) don’t staff adequately to suit their customers convenience. 🤬

    @virginmedia why would my router be red lighting if the internet is fine? i read online it means there’s an error with my connection but there isn’t any problem 🥴

  • aquaticsmum64
    AJKearney (@aquaticsmum64) reported from Aldridge, England

    Hey @virginmedia Had a contract with you for years but the TV service is terrible. Called to sort - gave details including PW for account via auto system (all correct). Person said the name on my AC is different??? My bill is in my name! Left hanging on for 28 mins then cut off!

    John (@jfrncs_) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I have now tried unsuccessfully for 12 hours to use the WhatsApp service as again it goes around in circles if I am not immediately available. The number you helpfully provided hangs up after sending a link… please advise how I talk to someone about my account.

    @ChristineAllado @virginmedia I keep having this problem every week and nothing ever gets done and all you get back is we can't find a fault

  • ReissOmari
    Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    And just like that my @virginmedia is off again, no internet whatsoever. Embarrassing service from them, very disappointed and frustrated.

  • Rob_Hicks
    W1NGNUT (@Rob_Hicks) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Doesn't matter now, we've terminated the contract and joined Three home broadband. I just think it's disgusting that a customer of over 10 years doesn't get offered a deal as good as a new customer.

  • curtis_thomas97
    Curtis Thomas (@curtis_thomas97) reported from Nuneaton, England

    @virginmedia 2 weeks because of your incompetence and you act like it's not your problem. My partner works from home so explain to me how she will do that because you have failed to provide me the service on the agreed date?

    When you have a smart house and your @virginmedia #Wifi goes down so nothing is working 😳 now the kids are moaning at no tablets, @PlayStation or @xboxuk there is only so many times I can reboot the hub...... #internetdown

  • trulyprashanth
    prashanth (@trulyprashanth) reported

    @virginmedia Formal complaint: missed installs on 12 Apr and 25 Apr, 10+ days without broadband. Equipment installed but service still not activated due to system issues. Extra costs for data and dongle incurred. Please escalate, activate within 24 hours and confirm compensation.

  • Andybedfordblue
    Andy Sexton (@Andybedfordblue) reported

    @BigPaul91 @virginmedia Part of the reason I have just left along with shocking customer service trying to speak to people who don’t even speak English.

  • AndrewW12290183
    Andy W (@AndrewW12290183) reported

    @virginmedia Why did You take £90 out of my account in case I don't send the equipment back ? Thing is I'm still waiting for the returns package from you. Or is another ploy to take more money like when you signed me up for a TV subscription I never asked for.

    @virginmedia im a new customer i was lead to belive a engineer would be installing broadband now i have a old telewest socket the cable that I am supposed to plugg in won't fit now where cable is supposed to go has that to be unscrewed ? I have no service or WiFi tia gail

  • jasoncainesmith
    Jason Caine Smith (@jasoncainesmith) reported

    @VirginMedia No response on X or WhatsApp after hours. Cannot get through by phone due to your system issue. This has left an elderly customer without TV all day. Completely unacceptable. If I don’t get a response shortly I will be making a formal complaint.

  • DWRICHARDS
    David Richards (@DWRICHARDS) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks so much. Who should I ask for?! Current promise via Chat is a chq within 30 days. The problem with contacting Virgin Media by phone or online when you are a former customer chasing a refund is that it is difficult to get past your security checking if it's an old a/c.

  • NathanH17475101
    hennii (@NathanH17475101) reported

    @virginmedia My WiFi has been down for over 2 hours. The box is flashing red. Apparently no outage in my area. I have tried all recommend things

  • AnIndividualist
    TheRealCraig (@AnIndividualist) reported

    If @virginmedia had good deals I would’ve considered re subscribing. But cancelling our old email addresses without notice because we cancelled has caused so much trouble I certain won’t now

  • Merse2506
    John Mercer (@Merse2506) reported

    @virginmedia @A_MyRules1 I have had the same issuea and my box is ****. Never works buffering out of service channel failed. Cant go online link dont work tried calling

    @RogerGreen2009 @virginmedia I'm definitely going to be reviewing my options at the end of my current @virginmedia contract as they've been dreadful in terms of communication and help when the chips are down(day SEVEN of outage)😢 Sadly, I've only just renewed my contract... Thanks for the suggestions👍
