    @virginmedia can’t get on service checker as app says it is out of service. Internet has gone down in M20 ?? When should it be fixed?

  • Scarlet0Pimp
    Liam 🐀 (@Scarlet0Pimp) reported from Stockport, England

    @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

  • nathangreen101
    Nathan (@nathangreen101) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    Hi @virginmedia is there a particular reason your engineers phone to say they are here but never actually turn up?

  • mark001282
    Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Don't give me your copy and pasted waffle. You have done nothing to help. You have been an absolute thorn in my side! "I'm so sorry you feel this way" is such an outdated and terrible response from a marketing point of view btw.

  • Laura_May_Ness
    Laura May (@Laura_May_Ness) reported from Manchester, England

    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?

  • Justnick752
    Nick-crack-a-way-Nick-crack-away (@Justnick752) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia My hub 4 has a flashing red light and states that No RF signal is found. What does this mean in English please? Keeps happening, no tv, broadband or phone.

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

    @virginmedia my broadband was “delivered” today by Yodel but the package is no where to be seen and wasn’t attempted (I’ve been in all day waiting). I can’t get any help from them, please help!! 😭

  • mikekateley
    Mike-Kateley #RejoinEU (@mikekateley) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia isn't my money good enough for you? Been waiting for 2weeks for you get back in contact about why my house is the only 1 on the street who can't get the service. Phoned customer services who can't help. Not very good customer service.

  • SeanKeyes
    Sean (@SeanKeyes) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I was heavily sold a renewal based on an engineer installing+configuring everything as we are meant to have the fastest Wi-Fi possible.I installed it and no sign of an engineer,no follow up from Virgin. As per usual.Was also sold some ‘VIP service’ line that’s never been shared!

  • GreenwasBlue
    GreenWasBlue (@GreenwasBlue) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia I've tried the online help to no avail.Just going round in circles. How do I get to book a visit by a human being?? 😡

  • 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.

  • bigdave22003388
    Dave (@bigdave22003388) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia im guessing technical support ain’t working ? Got no tv and can’t get any help

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia If that was the only issue than yes that would be the logical next step. But as you’ll see from the previous tweets and email sent on Wednesday it isn’t. All the issues need dealing with in the round or otherwise I’ll have to cancel and go back to sky.

  • PaulRegent1
    Paul Regent (@PaulRegent1) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia no internet available in Bolton - must be an outage as, although coverage is very poor, it isn’t usually this poor!!

  • KerryKez7
    Kerry Louise (@KerryKez7) reported from Urmston, England

    Don’t ever get Virgin Media internet/WIFI it’s SO garbage & keeps going off especially when your watching something WTF & apparently it’s the most up to date & according to them it’s the best NO it’s not plus it’s expensive for being SO c**p 🤬💷😤

  • SurrealPaulT
    Paul Terry (@SurrealPaulT) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia hi Virgin. We had an outage of broadband and TV services beginning 23rd Sept which lasted for 4 days. At the time we were told we would be compensated for this loss. As it hasn't come off our latest bill, how do we claim?

    @virginmedia So how do i go about reporting an SNR upstream Area fault now? the forums have been shut down which always handled it before but now ive been stuck with this causing packet loss since early June.

  • coggesgardener
    Jon | The Cogges Gardener (@coggesgardener) reported

    Hi @virginmedia How do I stop receiving calls from your marketing department? I must be getting at least one weekly, tell them to stop & block the number, yet they keep coming. Can you help please? 🙏

  • RicoWeston07
    Ricoderlig (@RicoWeston07) reported

    @virginmedia I signed up to a new broadband service and the hib was due to be sent yesterday but I cant call to speak to anyone or log into a virgin account as I dont have an account number yet. Can you help?

  • sworrall36628
    Wozza (@sworrall36628) reported

    @virginmedia why is it that I have contacted you 3 times to swap out 2 my wired mini boxes to replace with 2 streaming boxes and I am still yet to receive an email confirming the change! Poor that I spent over 40 mins on chat last week (3rd time) rubbish CX!

  • chrislove_89
    Chris Love (@chrislove_89) reported

    @virginmedia 4x since I’ve moved across from BT, the service has been completely down in my area, this in space of just a few months. This has affected exam revision, kids bedtime routines, among other things. Terrible, pathetic service and can’t wait until my contract expires!

  • victor50
    Kev (@victor50) reported

    @virginmedia if Virgin paid me £5 for every time the wifi went down, I’d be a wealthy man. I am anyway, but not quite enough to sue under the trades description act for diabolical service. Absolutely awful. The new provider can’t get in our area quick enough.

  • trapdoor456
    Berk (@trapdoor456) reported

    @BigBadWolf137 @virginmedia Yeah, 14 day cooling down period 👍

    Karen B 🥀🇪🇺 🇺🇦💜🤍💚KarenB@KBGreyhoundLady (@KBGreyhoundlady) reported

    @Lewis_BGA @BBCBreakfast Virgin media did the same. The call centre was in Wythenshawe Manchester. Now it’s in the Indian subcontinent. OH had a mare as our e mails crashed. Lovely young woman but SO hard to understand. Also AGES trying to get through to speak to a human. Customer service is dead

  • NitonCalling
    Rachel (@NitonCalling) reported

    @virginmedia Is there an issue with your email servers? I’m getting the odd few emails but know I’ve not received others and not showing on webmail either

  • MisraSonali
    Dr Sonali Misra (@MisraSonali) reported

    Holding this amount ransom? Will you provide me interest and further compensation on the amount of time I’ve wasted calling your company and explaining this issue? @virginmedia
