Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Solihull, England@O2 @virginmedia Further to this, he has now told me that as I get a £15/month discount for my 1st 6 months with O2, I need to cancel that and pay full price in order to get the extra #Volt speed boost with VM
-
LOLZ N TING (@Tommm_Currie) reported from West Bromwich, England@virginmedia 6mbps download speed at the moment when ive upgraded to 350mbps... this is ridiculous, constant problems and advertising as the fasted.. and being told on your website that I need to wait 24 hours before you'll even look into booking an engineer..
-
Sana Parkar (@s_badruddin) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia why is your box down? Why doesn’t any of your apps load? E.g. Amazon Prime? 😑
-
Will Cooling (@willcooling) reported from Solihull, England@virginmedia your TV Go App doesn't ******* work. Won't accept my login. Won't let me change it. Won't let me register a new account. ******* joke
-
AM. (@whatsyourtwitta) reported from Birmingham, EnglandFfs my @virginmedia wifi is down…again 😤😤😤 - apparently I need to wait till midday tomorrow to get it fixed?!? No Netflix, no Xbox no nothing tonight ffs
-
Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England@virginmedia You only pay out for a total loss of service. So it can be unusable but still limping along and you won't pay out. Personally I am hoping for another provider to get around to rolling out fibre in my area.
-
AnnaBluez 🌧 (@anna_newbold) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia what's up? No TV or telephone line & your website & customer services have crashed Have you paid your bill? #virginmedia
-
Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England@virginmedia No estimated time. "It's a complex problem". In other words its a network fault not a line fault. Why isn't the number you shared available on your website? The service checker is useless in this scenario. The website says it's working when it isn't.
-
paul taylor (@pdtathome) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia I have a persistent broadband issue and can't contact customer support via the web site #help
-
Chris Burden (@WulfrunianChris) reported from Wednesfield, EnglandMy contract with Virgin Media has run out and they want to up my contract price by DOUBLE. When I rang up to cancel I expected them to offer me a better deal and they were just Ok bye.
-
Phil Campbell (@PhilCampbell_) reported from Willenhall, England******* Virgin Media!! ******* ****!!!! 🤬🤬🤬 @virginmedia
-
Steve Walters (@SteveWa13630733) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia problems with emails all day. Message keeps saying try again in one hour. But no emails since 835am this morning. Are you aware of this problem? Any news on a fix for it?
-
Peter Brocklehurst (@pasty_pete) reported from Solihull, EnglandGood old virgin media down again twitch in one week and I’m told two to three days before anyone can come out yet I bet the bill will arrive on time
-
Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Solihull, England@virginmedia 45 mins on hold then cut off over 100 quid a month TV not working yet again!
-
Caroline (@Miss_Pumpkin666) reported from Birmingham, England@sahinbrum @virginmedia I agree that their compensation policy is bs, I’ve found when I’ve had any outage affect me, they patch it quickly so the service gets intermittent while they work on a full fix, that way they don’t have to compensate, even if service drops out every couple minutes. BS really
-
Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England@virginmedia Broadband connection and WiFi are stable but connectivity is intermittent-keeps losing connection every few minutes for 30 seconds. This is a network fault but I cannot find an option to report it. B90 1LB
-
Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England@virginmedia Your system sent me a satisfaction survey. Needed to complete it using mobile broadband because my virgin broadband doesn't actually work, but is apparently working enough to not qualify as being out of service.
-
Caroline (@Miss_Pumpkin666) reported from Birmingham, England@Michaelallen_99 @philell21 @virginmedia Because the stupid rules say that if there’s a disruption to your services (over a specified amount of time), you’re legally entitled to compensation, but ONLY if you contact them to notify them that you specifically are effected, if you don’t they’re not obligated
-
♥ Karina Aura ♥ (@karriecheer) reported from West Bromwich, EnglandVirgin media has been down since this morning what a joke
-
Ginger and Nuts (@gingerandnuts) reported from Brownhills, EnglandWell @virginmedia you have let so many people down with no apology or update. Disgraceful.

-
ezdoingthings (@ezdoingthings) reported@virginmedia No, I have not. I said I would make a complaint if that didn't happen but even that seemed to be a hassle with your company so I've cancelled. Moved to @zeninternet, it's way more expensive but seems to have way better customer service, or at least hasn't disappointed me so far.
-
Southampton Socialist (@Sotonsocialist) reported@virginmedia Please, speak to the team? have you tried talking to someone, it's a joke, why not try ringing in for yourself and see how abysmal your customer service is! And no my WiFi is nothing short of diabolical
-
Lady Acorn 💩 🔥 ♡❤♡ (@Shithotish) reported@virginmedia So Joe Bloggs can berate u for wanting to use an app that VM fail to fix???
-
Barry Smith (@BarryBKS) reported@alexdeutsch @d_pedrini @virginmedia Sounds like a problem at your street box. Might be worth speaking with your neighbors and see who else has similar issues at the same times. If you all report the problem together, they may find the source quicker. Intermittent faults are a nightmare to resolve. Good luck.
-
Frankie Musso (@FrankieMusso11) reported@virginmedia Can you please tell me how I can contact you guys, everytime I try I get palmed off to n automated system and never to a human being! Its urgent and now massively impacting my business with having such inconsistent internet connectivity!
-
Carl Wakefield (@carl_wakefield) reported@virginmedia help
-
Kenny Kettings (@kenket1) reportedIs anyone else without their @virginmedia ntlworld email? It's been 9 days down and still no decent response from them after 4 calls. I even asked their executive team to look at it. They haven't got back to me since their initial response. How hard can it be to fix an email? 😕
-
Basso (@sharon_bass) reported@virginmedia my father has severe dementia & I've spent 50 mins on phone with advisor + manager. Sent POA so I could control acc on Dec 2019 after a prev complaint. Rec'd written confirming this. No-one would change email add 4 me to check bills. Manager asked me 2 send POA again
-
Adam Dolphin (@itsmeinleek) reported from Redhill, England@virginmedia online to@one of your agents for an hour now, it’s a joke. 6+ minutes to answer any question. I bet if I wanted to upgrade the conversation would be quicker. Shocking service.
-
Alex Deutsch (@alexdeutsch) reported@BarryBKS @d_pedrini @virginmedia Yup, I had 5 years faultless service in my own place. Dreadful service here and it’s frustrating that they recognise there are frequent issues but do little about it
