  • twiddlemeister Dave (@twiddlemeister) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia Please can you tell me what the absolute hell is going on in the SK8 area recently? We’re lucky to get a trouble-free day at the moment. Been on and off throughout today. One or two faults a week. We pay as near as damnit £100 a month for this.

  • DallasCowboysMV Michael Vix (@DallasCowboysMV) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia upgraded my package 3 weeks ago & wished I’d left and gone to sky as originally planned. Service is shocking. Worse speeds than before upgrade. How do I cancel, nobody is answering my calls. Hours spent on hold

  • LauraR1707 Laura (@LauraR1707) reported from Bury, England

    @virginmedia hello our box attached to our outside wall is broken and won’t close, wires could be exposed and with the weather changing the water could get in. This has been since we moved in, in April

  • katarn_a1 David Moores (@katarn_a1) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia I've been trying to get in touch with someone at your customer service all-day with out any joy is there any other way to get in touch

  • champerslass champerslass (@champerslass) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia absolutely unacceptable service!!!! No internet since this afternoon!!!! #ridiculous #movingtosky

  • katarn_a1 David Moores (@katarn_a1) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp At the moment with loss of employment I need some help with my bill

  • AlisonPilkingt4 Alison Pilkington (@AlisonPilkingt4) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia we have a loss of broadband in the M6 area. No notification but the automated service states it’s an update on the service. If you want to provide good customer service, prior warning would be good. I’m fed up of this. If I can’t work from home, I will lose pay!!!

  • forakin Akin Akíntáyọ̀ 🏳️‍🌈 #European (@forakin) reported from Manchester, England

    Obviously, using the @UswitchUK service I should shop for a better than the exorbitant @virginmedia broadband service with phone line that I pay for but never use, after 6 years, they are complacent, I'm unhappy, because the Direct Debits are going in above the rate of inflation.

  • harlemplaster Pete Marshall (@harlemplaster) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia how the hell do I get in touch with you to solve a problem? The live chat doesn’t work (other than for sales) and you’ve shut your call centres ‘due to COVID’.

  • AussieBen38 BT (@AussieBen38) reported from Stockport, England

    Absolutely abysmal customer service from @virginmedia everyone I speak to hasn’t a clue what they’re talking about! People steer clear if you’re thinking of switching!

  • Ben_buy_thebook Ben Holmes (@Ben_buy_thebook) reported from Salford, England

    Looks like the WiFi is down. @virginmedia can you confirm?

  • uk_haj john Hajdar (@uk_haj) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Requested a free booster, which comes in two parts, which duly arrived and I installed them. Then got an envelope telling me to return something, another letter explaining what came later. I am now confused but keeping the boosters. Does that help?

  • katarn_a1 David Moores (@katarn_a1) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia is there any customer service in your company

  • katarn_a1 David Moores (@katarn_a1) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp I would like some help with my bill

  • OfficialJarvo Simon  (@OfficialJarvo) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia hi can some help me? Im after a price on something

  • MsBethTaylor Beth Taylor (@MsBethTaylor) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia It’s the same. I live in a small flat and when I go into the bedroom, the signal drops significantly. Surely it should reach the whole flat!

  • MsBethTaylor Beth Taylor (@MsBethTaylor) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia Yes it is. Plenty of room. No reason why the signal is poor. My last home was a house and it was fine in that.

  • katarn_a1 David Moores (@katarn_a1) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginhelp thanks for the help so far but I need to contact you again but is till have not received any response from virgin media. I have tried messaging through the media app with no joy either. I'm sending this at 09:30.

  • MsBethTaylor Beth Taylor (@MsBethTaylor) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia Hub is in the living room. No signal in the bedroom which is really close. Been happening for the past 6 months or so. Wasn’t originally the case.

  • ras8519 Randa (@ras8519) reported

    @virginmedia is there anyway to get through to your customer service team? I need to speak to an actual person. None of this online chat. Or even better have someone call me. Your service is a joke.

  • Angel532218790 Angel5 (@Angel532218790) reported

    @virginmedia You can DM and ask for the number of you're prepared to help me. I was offered a plan that covered my landline, broadband which was £44 and was promised it will not increase or change In fact this is not the case it has gone up by £10. I would like to speak to the manager

  • Gingham743 Pablo Luntinez (@Gingham743) reported

    @virginmedia Your customer service is a beyond a joke. Spent hours in the phone to keep getting cut off. Online chat is bobbins, as they don't reply. Broadband poor and drops out, TV with intermittent sounds issues and dropouts. Home phone number still not ported across. #pathetic

  • jimmywim Jim Love 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@jimmywim) reported

    @virginmedia I've lost connection and the site isn't letting me self service a connection test, can I DM my area code & account number for you to test plz?

  • GillianStim Gillian Stimpson (@GillianStim) reported

    @virginmedia terrible company to deal with. Charge us for landline calls, we have no handset. Kept us hanging on for 2 hours with the same godawful music playing over and over again. Will cancel this contract ASAP

  • IanSlater1990 Ian Slater (@IanSlater1990) reported

    @virginmedia He plugged all Ethernet cables that run into the router into his device and said the speeds were looking correct etc and he couldn’t see much of a problem which was right at the time but it’s an intermittent fault where connection can drop 5-6 times an hour

  • FlipflopRobbie Sharron Robbie (@FlipflopRobbie) reported from Plymouth, England

    Come on @virginmedia .....another wasted afternoon with no #internet yet again but when I visit your site to check why they may be a problem I am told no issues detected in Plymouth ! This is getting to be a regular occurrence 😫

  • Goutam54206511 Goutam (@Goutam54206511) reported

    @virginmedia I can not keep calling them daily basis.. We are working..please try to understand our situation.. COVID giving enough stress.. your customer service told me on 01 December that will call me but still waiting for that..this drama going on past 2years but virgin still collecting

  • CookstarCook Adam Cook (@CookstarCook) reported

    @virginmedia Its a central fault it has affected all of my neighbours also. I just want a good service like @skytv provided for many years. What use is a status page when we are all well aware we have an outage. Just to go on and confirm it in writing.

  • scottishrebel67 ScottishRebel67 (@scottishrebel67) reported
