  • Hendy14
    Scott Henderson (@Hendy14) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Is there a problem with your phone system? My Mum has been trying to call for 24 hours on numerous occasions to change package but gets cut off every single time. Your mentions suggest this is happening to lots of others too. Can somebody arrange a callback please?

    @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 hello, can you please fix the broadband in the sk11 8aa area once and for all. It was down yesterday afternoon, just gone down today and down last week. Clearly there is some Faulty hardware that needs replacing. How can people work from home with broadband like this

    (Test) Is anyone experiencing a virgin media Internet outage in M6?

    @virginmedia Will do. That was your cue to step in and offer some ‘customer service’ btw.

  • HollowayAlec
    Alec Holloway (@HollowayAlec) reported from Stretford, England

    @virginmedia is unbelievable that our Internet is so poor, trying to contact someone via phone on numerous occasions waiting for over 45 minutes to speak with someone. Still haven't been able to get through to anyone.

    @virginmedia Hi, for the 2nd time it appears you’re trying to charge me for a call out when I wasn’t supposed to be charged, I’ve already called once about this and was told it was corrected but it’s happened again? I’ve had to cancel my DD until sorted as due to come out 2morrow

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

    @virginmedia I have phoned you at least 10 times this week. I’ve had a visit from a technician. My Wi-Fi still doesn’t work. I rang up AGAIN in the last half an hour, after waiting for 30 mins to speak to someone, they said they had ‘system issues’ and hung up on me. (1/3)

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

    @virginmedia The guy I spoke to at VM yesterday said that she wouldn’t be eligible for a “disabled” phone line to be installed because it wasn’t claimed when they dug the front garden up 18 months ago. We were never given this as an option at the time, if we had we would have insisted on it.

  • he_tompkins
    Hannah Tompkins (@he_tompkins) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Hi there, I was told I would receive my replacement broadband by today and still no indication of when it’s going to arrive. Any help?

  • 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 😠

  • 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.

  • louaze
    🐝Louise🐝 (@louaze) reported from Manchester, England

    Skysports app with virginmedia login hasn't been working today so having to old school "watch" via live updates here. HORRIBLE way to sit thru that 8mins!!

  • davideyres
    David Eyres (@davideyres) reported from Oldham, England

    More @virginmedia woes, ever since Feb I've been messed about, lied to and overcharged! Can't wait for next year so I can cancel and leave! #virginmedia #rubbish

  • pillbo01
    kevin.james (@pillbo01) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia That number is a automated response not a customer service agent and an utter waste of time

  • _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.

  • Rayzor74
    Ray Morgan. NHS💙🇺🇦 (@Rayzor74) reported from Stockport, England

    Good start to the day with @virginmedia informing me my monthly bill is increasing by £15/month and I have until the 17th of April to decide on my options. That is £180 annually. Having been firstly a Nynex customer and a Virgin customer since the takeover think it may be time

    @virginmedia If you want I can send pictures and ALL THE emails .I don't have the time to keep discussing the same situation with yet another virgin media support staff . My time is precious.

  • Tiffers1973
    Tiffers (@Tiffers1973) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia I'm trying to cancel but even that seems impossible

  • Aldehulme
    David (@Aldehulme) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia I need to speak to somebody regarding a broadband problem without you running a check that will cut me off the internet. How do I get past this to speak to a person?

    @O2 Absolutely hate signing in now with @virginmedia and @O2 Change it back, it's awful and so problematic. Bunch of garbage. Makes me hate the whole thing now Fire your developers

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia I changed to virgin once. Lasted 6 months. They charged me for services I didn’t ask for or use took bigger payments than they should have and not one person on the phone spoke clear enough English for you to understand. Absolute **** show of a company

    @Seiko_Senpai_ meanwhile im still waiting for virgin media to get my **** installed after waiting for almost 2 months 💔

  • System11b
    System11 (@System11b) reported

    @MartinSLewis The only effective way to haggle is to just say you're cancelling. With car insurance particularly it's an annual timewasting ritual where they hike the renewal for no reason at all, you call to cancel and they immediately fold and come back with a better offer. Also works with Virginmedia when they make a tiny change to packages and hike them.

  • missjnyc1
    Jeanette (@missjnyc1) reported

    @virginmedia Spent an hour and half on the phone with your customer care team. They couldn’t tell me why they hadn’t turned up, no way of contacting them. Have booked another slot for tomorrow, the team wouldn’t even read the number I had just given them 2/3

  • ColinFenn45
    Colin Fenn (@ColinFenn45) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, poor signal strength is wifi only, if I am streaming on my laptop it becomes unusable, with a msg not enough bandwidth, and will last for about 15mins. The signal strength notification struggles to make any bars, and eventually clears.

  • barneymcg999
    Fed By Monkeys (@barneymcg999) reported

    @JonStone101 @virginmedia U need to threaten to cancel.

  • eightieschick72
    Charmaine Rome (@eightieschick72) reported

    @virginmedia @epwhamilton @virginmedia Same issue here. Took 1 hour on the phone to Virgin to be told there’s an outage. No comment about it on your website. And no idea when it’s being fixed. Moved from BT 3 weeks ago for more reliable internet. Not impressed at all.
