  • 1sophiereynolds Sophie Reynolds (@1sophiereynolds) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia hi, I currently have no internet. I’ve ran a service check in my area and apparently it’s fine. I am WFH so need to get online immediately. Can anybody assist please?

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

    @virginmedia The issue is this has been a daily problem, your customer wants this fixed, it's like taking your car to the mechanic everyday to fix whatever is wrong with it, it begs the question, what is the problem in Manchester that the engineer has had to return daily to fix, since Sunday?

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

    This situation with the unstable and unreliable @virginmedia broadband service is unacceptable and untenable, my work and business depends on this service and I am unaware of any 'Act of God' scenario that has informed this situation, at least you have not bothered to contact me.

  • Gkieran3 Kieran (@Gkieran3) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia my internet is consistently going down on tuesday evenings. What is going on?

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

    @virginmedia The estimated resolution time according to the Service Status page is 21:05 today. Meanwhile, I have to run a support and test network on mobile phone tethering.

  • Conuggy Christine C (@Conuggy) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginhelp @virginmedia absolutely ridiculous 3 weeks no service waited an hour to get through because I’m at work cannot arrange an engineer .. NO TEST REQUIRED IT IS NOT ABSOLUTELY NOT WORKING I HAVE HAD NO BROADBAND FOR NEARLY 3!weeks!!!! Disgusting

  • harris_group_uk Victoria Harris (@harris_group_uk) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia It says no issues but the entire area has no Virgin Media.

  • OldhamSte OldhamSte RL (@OldhamSte) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia @AzzopardiEmma Your always sorry, your service, promises and what you State top service is shocking - you should be shut down! I'm angry

  • OldhamSte OldhamSte RL (@OldhamSte) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia Rang said senior tech will ring me back within 48hrs - this ain't getting resolved here is it! I'll speak to my Ombudsman as you've failed me from beginning with false info, billing service and connection speeds

  • jehsuey johnconroy (@jehsuey) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia your customer service staff are a joke. Constantly, lie cut you off and never resolve your issue. Get rid & start again.

  • Barber1Paul Paul Barber (@Barber1Paul) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia We are due to have a new cable fitted outside as we have had months of issues which I have contacted virgin about regularly leading to an engineers visit. The engineers suggested updating our boxes and getting some pods to assist with signal- just ring up. Which I did no good

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

    @virginmedia It appears my broadband and television service have been restored, I hope it remains stable from now on.

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

    Dear @virginmedia, I've since Sunday registered at least 10 events of the loss of my broadband service, only Wednesday was problem free because I was not at home. Your portal provides an ETA to resolution only for the service to fail again. What is the problem in Manchester?

  • Coultas DC (@Coultas) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I complained about my data signal on my phone dropping out every couple of minutes over a week ago, it’s still no better and I’ve received no update. Please can you help me with this?

  • katiem8y Kate McLean (@katiem8y) reported from Poynton, England

    @virginmedia we have invested in a new router as we’re having endless issues with yours but now we’ve got pixelated channels on the tv. Any ideas how we can sort? Thanks

  • DianeHilton20 Diane Hilton-Wainwright (@DianeHilton20) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia why don’t you solve my intermittent internet problem and why do your chat people ignore me? Poor poor service . I will be voting with my feet .

  • KevinMullan20 Kevin Mullan (@KevinMullan20) reported

    @virginmedia I am still waiting on word back from my complaint! Your complaints team were supposed to contact me back, I was mistaken in the last tweet, today is the 56th day. If I don’t have a resolution today I will have to contact @CISASUK and @Ofcom

  • IanRobinson Ian Robinson (@IanRobinson) reported

    The @virginmedia website is awful. If you can add services online you should be able to remove them online. Maybe you can. But I can’t find where to do it. Call wait times are hours are present due to COVID call centre closures they say. (Although phones work in homes I believe).

  • MeMattStone Matt Stone (@MeMattStone) reported

    @virginmedia and I literally just got hung up on after wasting an hour of my time. This is unacceptable service, I would like someone to call me ASAP, you can reach me via DM for my details

  • nadodj_ Nathan Rowe (@nadodj_) reported

    @virginmedia Ongoing. An engineer is coming out to the flat to inspect this coming Wednesday although it doesn’t change the fact that we have had sub-par service for duration of contract so far since changing broadband providers. Better service was expected given we have the 200mbps package.

  • _Leah_Thompson Leah Thompson ACIM (@_Leah_Thompson) reported

    @virginmedia Intermittent outages plus my bill is increasing even though I fixed in two months ago!! I want to raise a formal complaint - please advise.

  • Ebb1 Eb (@Ebb1) reported

    @stimooo1 @virginmedia Sorry you had to wait and got cut off. We at VM care only care about your high monthly fees. If we answer your call then more than likely you will want to cancel. So we do not answer. Hope this explanation helps. Stay loyal no matter what. Thanks.

  • 20TimesUTD__ 🔴 Fan Account 🔴 (@20TimesUTD__) reported

    @virginmedia useless sack of ****

  • _MCRD MCRD- (@_MCRD) reported

    @virginmedia been sat in a chat with no response for nearly 3 hours now!!! Why is it taking so long to get through to someone and why is virgin media making it so difficult to cancel my contract!

  • Ebb1 Eb (@Ebb1) reported

    @eddie_mystic @virginmedia Sorry you had to wait and got cut off. We at VM care only care about your high monthly fees. If we answer your call then more than likely you will want to cancel. So we do not answer. Hope this explanation helps. Stay loyal no matter what. Thanks.

  • mosajad Mohammed Sajad (@mosajad) reported

    @virginmedia After wasting 15 mins of my time, rudely comes back and says he can't help me and has transferred me to somewhere. Another long queue is guess....... Does anyone really care at Virgin Media???? 😡
