  • Griffo2018
    RICHARD GRIFFITHS (@Griffo2018) reported from Spelthorne District, England

    @virginmedia once again I have no Virgin media services at my home. I can’t even log in to my Virgin media app or access the Virgin media website by using my phone data. I have no way of checking the service status. TW15 area

  • Johnboy82903002
    John carroll (@Johnboy82903002) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia Done that, and still doesn't work

  • MarkAlexKeller
    Mark A. Keller (@MarkAlexKeller) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @ThreeUKSupport So does it only work when Three Wi-Fi is available? On Virgin Media it always asks me to login then says it should have logged me in automatically.

  • U2Gorilla
    Snatch (@U2Gorilla) reported from Southall, England

    Possibly the worst service Iv ever experience by @virginmedia signed up to a new contract on 4/08/22. Installation engineer was due today, no contact from virgin. called call centre on the phone for 56min multiple transfers asked to redo everything including provide bank details

  • jeannesmith1
    jeanne smith (@jeannesmith1) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia will lose my money as a loyal customer of 20 years standing, by slapping a 120% rise on my next contract due to start in November! Who else has seen such a massive percentage rise?

  • fadermonkeyking
    Jeff Brown (@fadermonkeyking) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia I’m trying to cancel an engineer appt next week. Followed online instructions but only option I get is to re-book for a different time. No option to cancel. And I don’t have time to wait for a response from you if I phone! Help!

  • ASHVllN
    Ash まじめ (@ASHVllN) reported from Esher, England

    @virginmedia Shouldn’t I be eligible for a reasonable compensation for paying for a service that I’m not actually receiving?

  • will_i_am67
    Billy Baxter (@will_i_am67) reported from Slough, England

    @virginmedia Called customer services at 6.30pm yesterday Sky sports now added. Lots of issues with WiFi at same time was on phone unable to load tivo box history appears to of been sorted. We will see in next 14days

    @virginmedia having problems with my wifi would you help me out

  • JessicaCarmodyV
    Jessica Carmody (@JessicaCarmodyV) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia I need to complain about your customer services. I’ve had multiple issues with a new contract I took out 31/01 this year. No manager has contacted me to follow up (after weeks since complaining) & yr customer sales centre is harassing me with calls. Pls contact me.

  • MarcoOlevano
    Marco Olevano, CFA (@MarcoOlevano) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia good evening, been battling with intermittent connectivity issues on your fibre broadband last 2 months. Have called your technical team before who just make you do the old school reboot which hasn't helped. Not quite sure why i am paying for a service not working

  • GeoffRogersEU
    Geoff Rogers (@GeoffRogersEU) reported from Hersham, England

    @virginmedia @FeelitWorking I think the OP is airing his frustration at the fact that he has to ask for discount at the end of the contract. VM does not do this with its business customers (I know as a former very satisfied business customer) so why should it apply to consumers? To be fair, Sky, BT, Talk…

  • MrsJerryTweets
    SusannJerry (@MrsJerryTweets) reported from Hounslow, England

    @8252Hazel @virginmedia Yes it has been unreliable for a week now. Their customer phone line goes straight to voicemail. Monthly bill goes up by£9 this month for such a poor service.

  • MrsJerryTweets
    SusannJerry (@MrsJerryTweets) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia broadband down since 7am today and intermittent for a week. Your customer phone line cuts off. You are adding 10% to my monthly bill for an appalling Service. What is the excuse?

  • pjwigley
    peter james wigley (@pjwigley) reported from Kingston upon Thames, England

    @virginmedia how can you watch catch up on the 360 it’s the worst upgrade I have ever done

  • thefitebegins
    jrd1982 (@thefitebegins) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia Yet again Virgin Media is down and yes I have tried the checker. Why are services with VM constantly going down across the UK?

  • Stefan_baisden
    Baisden 📸🎥 (@Stefan_baisden) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedialife @virginmedia The worst service from any company I have ever used. I would like to be removed from your business accounts.

  • fadermonkeyking
    Jeff Brown (@fadermonkeyking) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia Second tweet! Trying to cancel appointment. App only lets me reschedule, not cancel.

  • yessibelloperez
    Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Yep, not good enough. What’s the issue? Why does it keep happening and what are you doing about it? And how are you compensating customers?

  • ASHVllN
    Ash まじめ (@ASHVllN) reported from Esher, England

    @virginmedia On wired connection I’m getting the same results 431mb download and 30mb upload. I’ve tried to diagnose the issue via your website and it suggested again to send out a technician, so I’ve requested one to come again next Monday 11th.

    Katie Stevenson (@GlitteringAngel) reported

    Tell me, @virginmedia, how many people do I need to speak to before you make me (a longstanding customer) feel as valued as a NEW customer!? Coming to the end of contract and doing the same merry dance thatbwe always do, trying to get a decent deal!

  • MykeJD1
    MykeJD (@MykeJD1) reported

    Hi @virginmedia I'm an existing customer, we just paid a 5ver to upgrade and add the kids TV package. I did this yesterday around 5pm, I have a confirmation email but it doesn't tell me when it becomes active? So far 24 hours later and a full TV reset they still aren't working.

  • kingoftheshed
    Paul Parkin (@kingoftheshed) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve done this several times over the past week and I’m not talking to another automated service and getting nowhere. Any chance you could just fix the issues?

  • eripley8
    James Munro (@eripley8) reported

    @virginmedia @mobily_uk Can you drop the smiling emoji Virgin. It really is absurdly patronising and shows that you're just laughing at us rather than genuinely trying to help

  • yardley_canary
    David Whiteside (@yardley_canary) reported

    @virginmedia Being given 4 different values from different sources about what our monthly bill will be was the worst but there are too many to list...

  • NetZeroWatch
    Net Zero Watch (@NetZeroWatch) reported

    Mobile network operators have warned they could be forced to ration phone signal access to combat soaring energy prices triggered by the war in Iran. In a stark warning to the Government, telecoms giants including VodafoneThree, Virgin Media O2 and EE said they were drawing up emergency contingency plans after being excluded from Rachel Reeves’s energy support scheme. More Net Zero issues for consumers. #CostOfNetZero

  • Martinayres65o1
    Martinayres65@outloo (@Martinayres65o1) reported

    @virginmedia it’s now been an hour since the promised call from you. Given we have been without broadband & TV since Friday I would have thought you would make it a priority. Seems Virgin doesn’t care about its customers. Happy to take money whilst delivering no service

  • Jason29wctb

    @virginmedia @mobily_uk Why can’t you just offer the best service at the best price. This miserable dance goes on all over the UK.
