  • clairado77 claire smith (@clairado77) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @vmbusiness our internet is down but we have wifi? No sky catchup. What’s going on?

  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia our broadband is down flashing green light. The service page has a fault shown but check status says its working fine. You need diagnostics for your diagnostics...

  • DeanCondliffe dean condliffe 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@DeanCondliffe) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Kimothy_roll @virginmedia @Ofcom It’s just really poor customer relations. To not respond to a complaint. Only interested in taking your money, once they have that they no longer care.

  • pennwba Steve Penn (@pennwba) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia I had a call today from a man pretending to be from & trying to sell VM service. He got increasingly rude & aggressive when I said not interested. I'm sure he wasn't from Virgin Media but if you'd like the number he called from I will happily send it to you.

  • DeanCondliffe dean condliffe 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@DeanCondliffe) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia No. This whole conversation is about VM saying they will contact me to discuss my complaint and VM thinking it’s ok not to call and the complaint will just fizzle out. Do you have an email address I can write to please?

  • Neil982 Neil A (@Neil982) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia hi Virgin, I've come to the end of my 18 month broadband/TV contract and I'd like to cancel please. How do I go about that? Thank you.

  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia once again on demand not working. How are you supposed to watch a sky movies film when it stops every 10 seconds to spin a wheel for 10 seconds. Service checker says its fine and the box has been rebooted.

  • pennwba Steve Penn (@pennwba) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia Thank you. Never for one minute did I think he was from Virgin Media. He ended up after 7 minutes saying he'd cut off my Internet for 21 days. Thought I'd let you know as he's using your name

  • DeanCondliffe dean condliffe 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@DeanCondliffe) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia They lied and told me that they had called the house phone. They hadn’t. They updated my contact number to my mobile. I chased this 4 days later and was told my number had been updated and the complaint was still open and I will receive a call. Guess what?

  • DeanCondliffe dean condliffe 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@DeanCondliffe) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Poor internet. 500+ disconnections in a week when I’m paying for the highest package. Tried to downgrade package to save money, told I can’t. List is endless & all on file, supposedly!

  • JackalynHardy Jackalyn Hardy 💙 (@JackalynHardy) reported from Tamworth District, England

    @virginmedia waited for 25mins to get through to discuss changing my contract gave all my details put on hold and then cut off, despite having my number and mobile they haven't even tried to call me back great customer service

  • AaronAlluyn Aaron (@AaronAlluyn) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia @itsonlymegs virgin says tv had issues but nothing about internet.. Our internet has been unusable all week, I've been unable to attend any work meetings due to the extremely poor internet quality.. So what's up with that, whole week of trouble but guess I'll just pay as usual..

  • meclareyb Clare (@meclareyb) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia you claim we get 100 whatever’s per second. So tell me. Why my internet doesn’t work. I can’t stay on a zoom as my “internet is unstable” and live tv “jumps” not streams. You sent somebody to resolve last time. It’s now repeated this behaviour again. Why do that?

  • meclareyb Clare (@meclareyb) reported from Birmingham, England

    Very pleased to publicly announce we are leaving virgin media. I have never known such a diabolical internet service - current situation our 100mb per whatever it is means our internet is unstable for any zoom session. Utterly ridiculous. Hoorah for us 🙌🏻

  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Postcode was entered and I was logged in. Running a test reported no problem.

  • S_Whitchurch Sharon Whitchurch 🇺🇦 (@S_Whitchurch) reported from Burntwood, England

    @virginmedia I assume as you know there is a problem in my area and we have no TV services or wi-fi that we will automatically be compensated? Many of us are still working from home and this is a massive problem for us!!! #badcustomerservice

  • clairado77 claire smith (@clairado77) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @vmbusiness internet is down but have wifi? Business name C D Morris & Sons ltd, 97 Kent road, Wednesbury, Ws10 0sy

  • akz147 Aqeel Butt (@akz147) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia here’s my complaint reference .. C-280522210 .. let me know how much of a shite you still don’t give.. you over charged me again after telling me you’re not.. you’re worse the @BorisJohnson #broadband #virginmedia

  • dazholdcroft1 Daz (Oaky) Holdcroft (@dazholdcroft1) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia Well if it’s so far taken 5 years I’d say it’s never going to happen surly

  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia It's not faulty. It's not a wifi or broadband issue. You don't have enough backhaul capacity.

  • EthelG98280133 Ethel. G. (@EthelG98280133) reported

    @virginmedia even back to the "mail not available "page . The stupidest solution is to "log in to your mailbox" .

  • paulnewton1962 paul newton (@paulnewton1962) reported

    @virginmedia To cancel the ddm and await final bill after 25th

  • amanda_mansell Amanda Mansell (@amanda_mansell) reported

    @virginmedia I can’t take time off to be at home and wait for an engineer, who I know will come and just change the hub. So now what? I carry in paying for a service I’m not getting?? Or a cancel my contact and go elsewhere? #poorservice #frustrating #nohelp

  • Charles_Stanton Charlie Stanton (@Charles_Stanton) reported

    @virginmedia said my new hub would arrive on the 1st. Turns out I had to wait til the 15th. Got an extension on old plan. I’ve been given an obsolete Hub 3 when I was told I was getting the Hub 5. The “new” Hub 3 (not 5) is broken and I now have to wait for a technician. SHITE.

  • brettclaxton Brett Claxton (@brettclaxton) reported

    Good to see @virginmedia not working properly yet again. Seems to be nothing but issues atm and no compensation to customers for it.

  • lollyJ1305 laura (@lollyJ1305) reported

    @virginmedia care to explain why we are experiencing yet another total loss of service in the WD18 area?

  • boxofchocs mshughes (@boxofchocs) reported

    @virginmedia hi - how do I contact an actual person to help with broadband issue? tvm

  • jerryp99uk Jerry Pursall (@jerryp99uk) reported

    @virginhelp @virginmedia I wrote to you (via Sunderland address) on 23rd March to cancel my contract with yourselves. I have not heard anything as to when my service will end.
