  • prinnysinead Sinead Bacon👩🏼‍⚕️ (@prinnysinead) reported from Kegworth, England

    @virginmedia need to sort their shit out, we’ve had shitty on off WiFi for months now 🙄🙄

  • WieMenHo Wie-Men Ho (@WieMenHo) reported from Lichfield, England

    @virginmedia Again, why is it so complicated. Designed to frustrate the customer and so they stick with the more expensive package. Your team member could not understand my basic request, which is very concerning. Listen back to the call. Play it to @ofcom they have my consent to listen to it

  • something_phil Philip John 🇪🇺 (@something_phil) reported from Lichfield, England

    There are going to be *weeks* of follow up at @virginmedia about how the hell they allowed their own status page to be tied to their infrastructure. Pretty useless if your status page goes down when you do.

  • superjayslim jamie ford (@superjayslim) reported from Coalville, England

    @ash_tunstall @virginmedia Sky working fine. Streaming shit loads!

  • WieMenHo Wie-Men Ho (@WieMenHo) reported from Lichfield, England

    Shocking telephone service @virginmedia - want to reduce my TV package. Don’t want movies or BT sports any more. Can’t tell me what package I would move on to. Whether I lose any other channels or even if I lose HD channels.

  • _Chris_Seddon_ Chris Seddon (@_Chris_Seddon_) reported from Melbourne, England

    Looks like someone pulled out the wrong plug at Virgin Media HQ. Even their website is down!

  • antbates1991 Anthony Bates (@antbates1991) reported from Burton upon Trent, England

    New tactics from Virgin Media, ring up to cancel, they say they can't find your account and then put the phone down. 🖕🖕

  • Mark_Northall Mark Northall (@Mark_Northall) reported from Tamworth District, England

    @virginmedia I finally had a response now waiting for a techie to get back to me - I still don’t think I should gave to pay for a service I’m not receiving (High speed internet)

  • Watto_Clare Clare Watson-Spence (@Watto_Clare) reported from Coalville, England

    Can anyone help with 20 data dongles for a school I’ve worked closely with. The free WiFi/data would allow these families to access on line learning for lock down. Would be a loan until they return to school! Please try and help! Thank you xx @virginmedia @tescomobile @O2

  • james_watts James Watts (@james_watts) reported from Sandiacre, England

    @virginmedia The is letting me know. Downloads are very slow a video that would normally take 3 mins is now 40.

  • amarapickerill Amara Pickerill (@amarapickerill) reported from Walton upon Trent, England

    @virginmedia please tell me how to contact your complaints department as I have an ongoing issue with your mobile department that’s been raised over the last 12 months and no one can help me! #poorcustomerservice #virginmobile #complaint #help

  • WieMenHo Wie-Men Ho (@WieMenHo) reported from Lichfield, England

    Not surprised re @virginmedia especially on the TV side - my issues remain unresolved following my attempts to reduce my tv package without being given the assurances or certainty of what channels would actually be removed and what would remain!

  • harrietmayx harrietparkdavies (@harrietmayx) reported from Lichfield, England

    @virginmedia reset my virgin router and now won’t turn back on.. help please

  • sjbanks47 Simon Banks 🦁 (@sjbanks47) reported from Tamworth District, England

    @virginmedia your online service status says there are no known issues in my area. However when I called just with a broadband issue I was told there is a fault in our area. If your website was up to date I would not have needed to call and queue for 30 mins.

  • stuwin1 Stuart Windle (@stuwin1) reported from Stenson Fields, England

    @virginmedia When I phoned the contact centre they said they knew there was an issue and it would be sorted in 24hrs. A quick google shows this isnt just me its a common trend

  • matthewaucote matthew aucote (@matthewaucote) reported from Lichfield, England

    @virginmedia Broadband been down all morning in Lichfiled area any idea of issue or timescale

  • justrunningnow brian alvin (@justrunningnow) reported from Sandiacre, England

    @the____ghost @virginmedia Its broken

  • neilmjohnson72 Neil Johnson (@neilmjohnson72) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England

    @virginmedia You need to sort your customer service out, it is absolutely disgraceful. Your technical team are ignorant and hang calls up without situation. You are getting dumped!

  • antbates1991 Anthony Bates (@antbates1991) reported from Burton upon Trent, England

    @virginmedia It's for Virgin Media. Everytime I ring up to try and change something no one over the phone can ever find my account and because of this no one can help me. I want to cancel my package because the offer I'm on expires next month and the services are not worth £84.

  • caitlinaimeep Caitlin Parker🧜🏼‍♀️🧜🏼‍♀️ (@caitlinaimeep) reported from Lichfield, England

    It’s like @virginmedia are trying to get people to upgrade their broadband during lockdown otherwise they’re gonna give you shit service 🧐🧐🧐

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • carolinemilts Caroline (@carolinemilts) reported

    @virginmedia Why are you not addressing the rude conversation I had with an agent as screenshotted above?

  • MarybelHawkins Marybel (@MarybelHawkins) reported

    One hour on the phone to @virginmedia disconnection team trying to cancel, everytime I ask a question, silence for 15 minutes! This is painful!

  • BrianLocke19 Brian Locke (@BrianLocke19) reported

    @virginmedia Also 9 mins on hold at a cost of £1.82 is a joke when told its the only way to contact your cancellation service!!

  • PaulWButler Paul Butler (@PaulWButler) reported

    @virginmedia This is becoming a fiasco! I go via text and after lots of questions get this ‘Due to unforeseen circumstances we are not currently able to offer support via Messenger for Faults’. Then asked to join WhatsApp and guess what after lots of questions?

  • hoopy91 Steven Gibson (@hoopy91) reported

    @virginmedia got the letter about price change and ability to cancel with no fees does thus include my mobile which is linked to my broadband package?

  • ukfishert swiss tony 💙 (@ukfishert) reported

    @virginmedia (3/3) now the chat on WhatsApp still active and ive been passed to customer relations since around 10.30 last night and yet to hear anything.

  • theKamranZamani Kamran Zamani (@theKamranZamani) reported

    @virginmedia Dear VirginMedia I have inconsistent Wi-Fi within my house. In some areas, there's no signal. Your engineer visited last week. He said I need some intelligent Wi-Fi pods from you. I've tried ringing you for a week to no avail. Could you please help?

  • Lauren70708942 Lauren (@Lauren70708942) reported

    @virginmedia got cut off twice trying to cancel new contract with you while 'my details were checked' and having been on hold for 25 mins. Sent contract for cancelling in recorded post (delivered). Now had three calls from you that cut off as soon as answered. Appalling service

  • Kungphugb Phupinder Roopra (@Kungphugb) reported

    @virginmedia Not to worry, once I got through to the call centre the agent was able to transfer me to customer retentions and whilst on hold I had the automated offer. Whilst this has helped me surely you should be offering this to all customers automatically ?

  • Procrastymaster MentallyInMyTwenties (@Procrastymaster) reported

    @virginmedia I shouldn't have to. Marketing should be an opt-in, not opt-out. There was no option when I entered my number, and no indication that I would be hassled. Anyway, if that's how you treat potential customers, I don't want to be an actual one, so you've lost a sale.
