  • mrsclholdcroft Claire Holdcroft (@mrsclholdcroft) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia can you please tell me how to ensure that you cancel my contract? I have tried since June! I’ve moved out and you keep on sending me bills and notices of not paying! The chat is useless as no one actually helps! It then disconnects! So disappointed.

  • byellielouise El 👸🏻 (@byellielouise) reported from Colwich, England

    @virginmedia I have also tried the text service, and have been waiting an hour and a half for someone to answer. I have tried the options it gives in the meantime which redirect to the website which still doesn’t answer my query

  • CraigST6 CR #GTTO (@CraigST6) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia @SkySports @SkySportsBoxing £26 for HD and so far the picture quality has been garbage. Pixilated every 5 seconds or so. Sort it out or refund everyone affected.

  • mbally91 Mathew (@mbally91) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia why do your advisors keep hanging up randomly during my calls? Trying to find upgrade offers!? Shocking service will be looking to disconnect. What you saying @SkyUK?

  • MarcosJimClowes Marcos Clowes FCILT (@MarcosJimClowes) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been through all of that. A totally useless service. I’ve asked to be mailed an account password. So I need to wait for that as they told me no other way to help.

  • byellielouise El 👸🏻 (@byellielouise) reported from Colwich, England

    @virginmedia I’d like to cancel my broadband installation

  • byellielouise El 👸🏻 (@byellielouise) reported from Colwich, England

    @virginmedia can you please advise how I can speak to an actual person on your customer service number

  • small1808 nathan (@small1808) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia been on hold with one of your customer service agents for 45 minutes now hope she is alright

  • saneorinsane Jason Timmins (@saneorinsane) reported from Brownhills, England

    @virginmedia Thanks but that never works. ~15 years ago someone in our little cul-de-sac objected to VM digging the road so it's not here. How do I get VM to try again?

  • MarcosJimClowes Marcos Clowes FCILT (@MarcosJimClowes) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia I have lost my internet and TV channels. I don’t have access to the login details or my phone number to resolve online and I can’t get any answer on the phones despite waiting a very long time. How can I resolve this please?

  • upthevale Mark Kelly (@upthevale) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia ... what’s going on with your service in Stafford?? ... not good enough!

  • byellielouise El 👸🏻 (@byellielouise) reported from Colwich, England

    @FowlerLegend @virginmedia I’m just going round in circles. Hours of stress with it tonight. If I ever manage to get it cancelled I’ll never going near the company again

  • StaffordTownUK Stocky. (@StaffordTownUK) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia what are you doing to resolve the broadband ongoing performance and outage issues I'm Stafford. Many people /sites complaining.

  • MarcosJimClowes Marcos Clowes FCILT (@MarcosJimClowes) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia They refused to tell me as they said it contravened GDPR rules, I asked if they could tell me the minimum I needed to pay so as not to involve GDPR. They weren’t able to help.

  • beckieslittleb1 beckiemurphy (@beckieslittleb1) reported from Rugeley, England

    @virginmedia Yes it doesn’t help

  • small1808 nathan (@small1808) reported from Stafford, England

  • ianmorris04 Ian Morris (@ianmorris04) reported from Checkley, England

    @JimBrowning11 @virginmedia @KolkataPolice They are also targeting sky customers, was seeing my mum phone went internet, today my house phone, same ****. Be careful people.

  • williamtm Will Hook (@williamtm) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia had packet loss for a solid four days now in the ST16 area (Stafford)…any chance of a fix? It’s impacting my ability to work from home and in the evening I’ve not been able to watch YouTube/Netflix/etc without it buffering constantly.

  • byellielouise El 👸🏻 (@byellielouise) reported from Colwich, England

    @virginmedia No they didn’t. Seeing as I can’t get the issue sorted with yourselves I will be contacting my bank and instructing them not to take any payments from you via direct debit

  • beadyeyedjack Jack Benjamin (@beadyeyedjack) reported from Cannock Chase, England

  • anniebev6 Annie1971 (@anniebev6) reported

    For the last week my TV and internet has been crap, now I can't even use the app to find out what's happening in my area, such a crap company #virginmedia

  • rettoclien Neil (@rettoclien) reported

    @Virginmedia Hello I am trying to log into the o2 priority app, as it says VM broadband customers have access, I get passed the login screen, but when asked to put in my mobile number I’d get an invalid auth token error. I am not and o2 or vm mobile customer. Can you resolve this

  • Brynglas70 JimBob🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇮🇹 (@Brynglas70) reported

    @virginmedia There's a widespread ongoing issue since last week's outage. Hub 4's aren't connecting to WiFi pods.

  • complaints_help Customer Service (@complaints_help) reported

    @DevoyPaul @virginmedia @NatGeoUK Hi Paul, We’re sorry for the delay getting this sorted. Bank holiday hangovers still wearing off. Not to worry, we’ll these big *****’s back on your screen in no time. Thanks Customer Service

  • OghuzKh Hayreddin Barbarossa (@OghuzKh) reported

    @chilternrailway and @virginmedia competing for the worst company of 2023. Its a close battle

  • jack_p_93_ Jack P (@jack_p_93_) reported

    @virginmedia service down AGAIN in ME5. No broadband whatsoever. Restarted and reset the hub and unable to connect. Any chance of some help or refund as we are trying to work from home which is quite hard when you don’t have any wifi. Awful service

  • WendyNicholas1 Wendy Nicholas (@WendyNicholas1) reported

    @virginmedia Speed is not the issue it's the dropouts But we are told because it is intermittent it's not a issue that we can have any type of compensation for as it is not total loss and if it takes 2hrs to watch an 1hr of TV as the WiFi drops waiting for it to restart is not a problem

  • DigitalJonathan Jonathan (@DigitalJonathan) reported from Bristol, England

    Looks like @virginmedia #virginmedia is down in Bristol again. Bravo. Idiots

  • yakalot2 yaknottocs (@yakalot2) reported

    @virginmedia Thank you. Now why couldn't the customer service adviser on the phone say that? Seems that some retraining is needed.
