  • natsc0tt N A T A L I E👼🏼 (@natsc0tt) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia bunch of absolute scammers. Paying £80 a month for nothing. Constantly using 4g on our phones as the internet is getting less than 1mb of internet, our home security is constantly off because of this. Phone gets put down when we call for help. Absolute joke.

  • WattsChelt Ian Watson (@WattsChelt) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia I should have recognised that is the number I’ve been calling. Other than an online test it just leads you around in circles. No further forward, no fix, just a little more cheesed off. Really disappointing.

  • jamierudge Jamie (@jamierudge) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia your V6 box is so unreliable! Random picture breakups, loss of signal, audio out of sync... Makes me want move to another provider! 😠

  • twisterssister Jon Bassett (@twisterssister) reported from Gloucestershire, England

    @virginmedia I am having issues sending emails, I can receive them but there is an issue with the smtp server, says my user name or password don’t match but I have checked them and can access web email, who can help me

  • shon_douglas Shôn Douglas (@shon_douglas) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia Checked there...shows no known issues. Seems to have stabilised a bit on the last half an hour.

  • WattsChelt Ian Watson (@WattsChelt) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia Still no contact and TV’s still not providing all the services I’m paying for, do you have any customer service? #virgincomplaint

  • MichaelAlanHunt The Michael Hunt (@MichaelAlanHunt) reported from Gloucestershire, England

    It must be getting closer to Christmas @virginmedia the scam billing problem emails claiming to be from you are increasing. All reported to the national cybercrime team

  • DrPaulAtkinson Dr Paul Atkinson (@DrPaulAtkinson) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @vmbusinesshelp @terrizmo @vmbusiness This was yesterday. Your faults team were unhelpful when I finally got through after nearly an hour on hold. The significant outage seems to be well known but not by the twitter team who still have an outage from June pinned to this account!!

  • KW_GuinnessH Krystyna Wynn (@KW_GuinnessH) reported from Gloucestershire, England

    @virginmedia just been on hold to speak with someone for 1 hour 5 minutes and finally was getting through then “the other person has cleared” we have no WiFi since you upgraded me earlier, please help

  • BlueMoonMod Richard Goddard (@BlueMoonMod) reported from Brockworth, England

    @virginmedia I just spent one and a half hours on the phone to Virgin Media help desk , I was put on hold for the technical dept, while holding I was cut off . I’m trying to solve a problem you created and suffering for it. It’s not acceptable

  • RayWebpro04 Ray (@RayWebpro04) reported from Gloucestershire, England

    @virginmedia awful customer service for Virgin Mobile account holders, only online messaging and no one to talk too. And they don’t read the text, just keep palming you off!

  • WattsChelt Ian Watson (@WattsChelt) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia It’s now Thursday, I’ve waited as you said and no response from the text. No longer any response from you? At a loss, serious money handed over every month and zero service. #virgincomplaint

  • chunfkong The Mayflower (@chunfkong) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia is there a problem in GL51 area, our WiFi & landline are totally down!

  • WattsChelt Ian Watson (@WattsChelt) reported from Brockworth, England

    @virginmedia On the basis that I can’t get through to anyone in Virgin and the online help isn’t helping, will anyone respond to my Tweet of 15 hours ago?

  • booksbythewoods booksbythewoods (@booksbythewoods) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia It says there's an issue with TV but broadband is fine, but our issue is with our broadband. I've rebooted the rooter again and no change

  • natsc0tt N A T A L I E👼🏼 (@natsc0tt) reported from Cheltenham, England

    Call me a Karen but lol imagine paying £80 a month to be getting 1mb of internet and you can barely contact them and when you do they hang up on you🥴 #virginmedia @virginmedia is a piece of utter **** and is a disgrace of a company😤

  • booksbythewoods booksbythewoods (@booksbythewoods) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia Morning, it's still not working I'm afraid. Same situation as yesterday

  • BlueMoonMod Richard Goddard (@BlueMoonMod) reported from Brockworth, England

    Virgin Media engineer so say repairs neighbours phone line, but connects me to their house phone and clears off ,useless. Now up to 4hr wait time for Virgin help team to get call back ,for something that was ok before. PS my phones not working . #Virginmedia @virginmedia

  • WattsChelt Ian Watson (@WattsChelt) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia DC, I texted that message to them on Sunday as you requested, it’s now Wednesday. They have not responded. Do I have to stop paying to get some help? Please tell me what to do. #virgincomplaint

  • WattsChelt Ian Watson (@WattsChelt) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia You asked me to keep you posted, I’ve had no response. It certainly appears to be a problem with the hub because the WiFi is not really performing well. I’ve got three TiVo boxes and a C6 + broadband and it seems no one cares. Quite poor.

    @virginmedia Why not get someone to call me at a convenient time, ideally who can speak English and is capable of resolving the issues.

  • jamesciaran gwen keegan (@jamesciaran) reported

    @virginmedia Avoid this company at all costs absolutely disgraceful shocking service or broadband out of service two weeks in a month a week in a month three weeks in a month and I have the cheek to take €68 from an account and no service I know they don’t even reply to people

  • headchimp1 headchimp1 (@headchimp1) reported

    @virginmedia I have been miss sold a contract and would like to cancel but haven't got the three hours on the phone as I did yesterday any advice?

  • DannyTheedam Danny (@DannyTheedam) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve tried that but it says that I already have an account - the old account holders one. But I am the account holder now, but I never got the option to reset the username and password. If I try to reset the password it sends the email to the old account holders email.
