    Anyone available at @virginmedia please? Your website is shocking for trying to get in touch with customer services / live chat. Thanks

    Kelly Walsh (@Kellywalsh758) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia Iv asked lots of questions that have gotten me no where. To be hung up on over & over. They gave me a date of 17th December for it to have it installed no reasons as to why nothing explained I just think it’s a joke and the costumer service is dreadful. To have to wait 6 weeks!!

    Is the WiFi down for anyone else in the #OL9 area? #Oldham #VirginMedia

  • _AdamGardiner
    Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia It works intermittently. When I speak to an advisor they fix the issue at that moment. Then, the next day it’ll cut out again and the process repeats. It was working when the engineer left, but it didn’t last 24 hours. Intermittent isn’t good enough. I rely on you for work.

  • rachaelstafford
    Rachael Stafford (@rachaelstafford) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia shocking service from you today, I booked an engineer visit for my mum supposed to come today between 12-4 nobody came she’s since called and been told it was a phone call not a visit but still nobody had called. She’s now got to wait till Tuesday for a visit 😠

    @virginmedia Have you just stopped responding now? Having some system issues?

  • andymillington
    Andy Millington (@andymillington) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia My stepson and his partner having real problems getting someone to move the account to new address. Seems like a simple self installation M&T but nobody will help.

    @LennieThevan @virginmedia That sounds terrible Lennie. If you want to change a plan and save money they go out of their way to be unhelpful. However, if you want to spend more their customers service Is better.

    Simon Manning 🇪🇺 - SiManM20@mstdn.uk (@SiManM20) reported from Manchester, England

    @nrgloz @virginmedia Your paying 75% of what we are for 35% of the d/speed there. Neighbour has just switched to Brsk - it’s full #fttp so 1Gb both up/down rather than the 52Mb UL Virgin offer via DOCSIS. £40pm

    @virginmedia No. Tv is fine. I can access VOD such as Amazon Prime & Youtube no problem

  • johnsonhomes2
    johnsonhomes (@johnsonhomes2) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia Her phone like works at the moment because she has power but not in a power cut. This is one of the issues set out in the email which VM requested I send on Wednesday

  • blokealex
    alex. (@blokealex) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Complaint is about billing after cancellation, your staff refusing to process my request to cancel and being told a different thing every time I call back… it’s been awful.

    @Shredda @virginmedia Oh damn, that's peak. Might just be a coincidence then 🤔

  • Jo8Pink
    Joanne Fallon (@Jo8Pink) reported from Macclesfield, England

    @virginmedia My wifi is continually really poor. Been reporting it for ages. Nothing gets done. Called and the 5th person, said I had low connectivity to all my devices and put me onto someone else who said he’d completed some upgrades and it would improve. Said he’d call to check, still not

  • Lerounxi

    @virginmedia can you confirm if there’s active engineer trying to rectify the service outage Manchester (M30). Widespread issues reported according to your service outage on website ?

    Hi @virginmedia I have just moved into a new apartment where Wi-Fi is included. I have registered as a resident and I have received a pre-contract email but no account number and I am unable to connect to the Internet. Can you help me set things up?

    @virginmedia Still happening BB8 area code, signal drops and reconnects, I will deal with it publicly. I cannot watch shows on streaming, I can just about get a daily done if it cooperate long enough. This is not good enough service, you customer support is no help either.

  • Leedipus
    Leedipus (@Leedipus) reported

    @djacid25 @virginmedia In 2019 Virgin started charging me for Internet that I wasn't receiving in December. By the end of Jan I had an engineer admit there was no way I'd have an active service until April and they were planning on just stringing me along until then. Find a different provider ASAP.

    @virginmedia how/where do I report damage to the brown box on the wall of my house? The front casing has come off and is lost, I need it fixing.

  • piggywiggiewoo
    Frankie Mary (@piggywiggiewoo) reported

    @virginmedia my elderly mum was put on hold on the phone for nearly two hours waiting to speak to an agent and has given up. You are massively overcharging her and she needs to talk to you about her bill. Why aren't you answering the phone? I'm shocked by such poor service

  • garyjdale
    Gary (@garyjdale) reported

    @virginmedia Good Morning, can I speak to someone about my internet please? I have no service at present. It says there’s a fault in my area but nothing about a total loss of service 🤔

  • Emer49034181
    Emerfly66 @CLLIreland @LCovidirl. #Free Palestine (@Emer49034181) reported

    Not only that but they said they’d call me to discuss next steps . What next steps @VirginMediaIE ?!! What could I possibly contribute to solving the issue. This isn’t good enough @virginmedia. I have friends also experiencing problems with VM .

  • crispinlewis
    Chip Lewis (@crispinlewis) reported

    @virginmedia @ChiBkSequels Hey Virgin media, I need to cancel/renegotiate my contract. 30days notice is due at latest next Friday. Do I have e to send you a letter of cancellation or can I actually speak to a human to discuss reduced services/broadband only option, before it’s too late?

  • punjabihammer
    Jay Ess Bee (@punjabihammer) reported

    @obbsie @virginmedia Hence I left and went to @SkyUK Their call centre isn’t a machine, and if you’re not happy with the initial contact ask to speak to a supervisor and problems do get resolved.
