  • chrissy__w Chrissie (@chrissy__w) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia when your marketing team ring you and tell you that you have internet issues, advised I didn’t have any issues and the rude call handler just hung up. Rang from 01484313420. Not the best reflection for the company is it.

  • WrenJohn John Wren (@WrenJohn) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia told by them today that problems with “catch up” service not something that was paid for so in effect had to put up with the poor performance, in the end offered a tenner! Perhaps there is a better solution, ie get rid of them & get someone who cares 🖕

  • AlexxTheTiger Alexx 🏳️‍🌈 (@AlexxTheTiger) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia But that costumer service was abysmal, the person took ages to reply, and when it did, tried to sell me the same internet package I have for more than what I pay currently even...I don't want to have to upgrade my package to "fix" my internet, I just want the speeds I hired

  • johncoxonmedia John E. Coxon (@johncoxonmedia) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Hi. Have reported to you here that independent engineer confirmed my connection is OK but hub 3 is faulty & needs replacing. You advised phone 150 again to book engineer. Your system does not enable that just offers fault trouble shoot txt message.

  • AlexxTheTiger Alexx 🏳️‍🌈 (@AlexxTheTiger) reported from Stockport, England

    I never been so mistreated by @virginmedia like I was today, the staff on the live chat literally "hang up" on me mid support... absolutely gutted, saved all the conversation and I will seek citizens advice over this, that is no way of treating a 6+ years costumer

  • MJ_Humphries Martin Humphries (@MJ_Humphries) reported from Wilmslow, England

    @virginmedia Numerous times, and they are simply obstructive and unwilling to sort the problem. I'm appalled by the service quality.

  • JiriKPinnock J K P (@JiriKPinnock) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Does your customer service normally phoning at this time after 8pm from 08000521251?? Asking to verify my account??

  • rickcharlesuk Rick Charles Media Services (@rickcharlesuk) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia fastest bb worst ping 💪🏻

  • suzyk2002 Eileen Roberts (@suzyk2002) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia I pity the poor engineers who have to sort that mess out 😢

  • Gingernuts73 Sir Rodney Ffing 🇬🇧🥃👓📱📸 (@Gingernuts73) reported from Huddersfield, England

    Anyone else having an issue with @virginmedia WiFi?

  • markroberts0007 Mark Roberts (@markroberts0007) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia hi there, we’ve had internet issues since we went to sleep last night. We live in m30. There is a flashing green light on the box, I’ve been on your website to try and reset the box etc. Have you any idea what’s going on?

  • WrenJohn John Wren (@WrenJohn) reported from Oldham, England

    So many problems @virginmedia this year, poor system, poor WiFI, poor connections, poor customer service, all seem to be continually getting worse as does the response to complaints. Anyone else putting up with this poor quality? @skytv looking a clear future prospect

  • neyo Steve Day (@neyo) reported from Manchester, England

    @Netflixhelps I haven’t but I’ve streamed it via Virgin Media and EE’s mobile network, so it feels it’s not likely to be that? Can you or someone on the team try streaming it on iOS and letting me know if it works?

  • levylass Moira McLoughlin 💙 (@levylass) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia seriously getting fed up with your service why do I have to sit on top of a box connected to TV to get any internet when working at home & office on 2nd floor ?? Rung 3 times same old guff pull the plug out 🤬🤬

  • andy4321 Andy Collier (@andy4321) reported from Stockport, England

    I'd never switch broadband to @virginmedia after hearing about their unfair charges on @joelycett #virginmedia

  • AlexxTheTiger Alexx 🏳️‍🌈 (@AlexxTheTiger) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia Not really, I checked your system on my virgin media page and it reports no problems on the area, I already restarted and rested my modem, more then once time

  • DaveGarside Dave Garside❤️🇾🇪🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿⚽️⛳️🎸 (@DaveGarside) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Yes there are and there were all 3 times. Currently 4.00pm estimated to be fixed but that’s my Saturday pretty much gone without any service

  • SarahBeePhotos Sarah Bee Photography (@SarahBeePhotos) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia Terrible as always, you cannot deliver in this area, you’ve promised for a few years now but nothing changes, I’ve had to put us on unlimited data on the phones as the WiFi is not fit for purpose, I am on the highest speed apparently… shocking

  • SiManM20 Simon Manning (@SiManM20) reported from Manchester, England

    Anyone else on @virginmedia getting that weekly thing when their internet collapses again on a Sunday night? I’ve asked them repeatedly and they deny it but it’s a weekly outage like clockwork #VMSundayOutage

  • WrenJohn John Wren (@WrenJohn) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia Told yesterday that it is a local problem due to be resolved by 12th August, however that seems to be a standard reply which is now becoming tiresome. We have to wonder if @virginmedia have fallen back in the hi tech department & that we should move on to a more reliable provider

  • vbloke VBLOKE-19 (@vbloke) reported

    @virginmedia why can’t I turn off that damn error screen you’ve foisted on me without permission? Your “opt out” screen does NOTHING.

  • lemonfreshrob Rob Morris (@lemonfreshrob) reported

    @virginmedia Well that was too good to be true. SW16 is off again. Not even a day of it staying connected. And the website is no help at all.

  • PCashmore paul cashmore (@PCashmore) reported

    @virginmedia 90 mins waiting on the phone 👀 the website can't help with my problem, the IM is not working? Customer service🙄 why don't you offer a call back system? DM open if you wish

  • Siobhan_Studio Siobhan McLaughlin (@Siobhan_Studio) reported

    @virginmedia @JayWyatt122 Hello, I've tried texting this number to get help but it automatically fails?

  • Duckyfuzz14 FuzzyDuck (@Duckyfuzz14) reported

    @virginmedia how can I cancel my broadband order (placed today). I cannot get through on the phone, my call was ended by Virgin after being on hold for 45 minutes. Your live chat service has no response after 40mins. And your SMS service doesn't seem to work.

  • NeedsMoreGrey Grey (@NeedsMoreGrey) reported

    @virginmedia I like how you say “please learn how to do that here” and then don’t link anything. Also, this will@be the third time I have escalated to a for@al complaint. What’s the point if it doesn’t actually do anything? And your assurance that a manager will call me back is worthless.

  • mhynd1 Marion hynd (@mhynd1) reported

    @virginmedia 2 hours to speak to customer services then told I should phone at 7am if I don’t want to wait 2 hours to speak to someone. Worst customer service EVER !!!

  • orrydrinkwater orry drinkwater (@orrydrinkwater) reported

    @KirstenClareA @virginmedia Did you get any joy? Can't wait to leave them. Fastest broadband that doesn't work isn't fast @virginmedia

  • lesleymariposa Lesley ******* (@lesleymariposa) reported

    @virginmedia Finding it very difficult to get through to the installation team who our elderly parent near Swansea says have not turned up. He is a new customer so can’t use 150. Due between 8-1300. Waited 40mins on phone. Can’t get through.

  • PhilCampbell_ Phil Campbell (@PhilCampbell_) reported from Willenhall, England

    @virginmedia Trying to change my address for my services as I've now already moved and can never get through to you. And your site aparently says I'm supposed to pay £20 for the privilege of this **** service!???
