Onearmedjohn (@onearmedjohn) reported from Gillingham, England
@virginmedia I’ve had two lengthy phone calls with your ‘technical support’ people; it briefly got quicker then stopped working completely. On their instructions I’ve changed some settings on my router which apparently may take 48 hours to fully take effect…

Sue Groves MBE (@SUEG46) reported from Rochester, England
@virginmedia we seem to have WiFi still but our sky box has lost connection.. is this related to the issues you have?
-
Tolu (@tolu_____) reported from Basildon, England
@virginmedia How about just provide me a link to download the less than 10mb of pdf? Admin fee to provide a link or email a customer of over 3years? What have you offered me in return for the many times of INTERRUPTED service when I’ve had to turn to my mobile hotspot?

Onearmedjohn (@onearmedjohn) reported from Gillingham, England
@virginmedia I think she was recording a fault as far as I could make out due to her poor English

@suziqvk @virginmedia BT, without a doubt. Virgim media is absolutely useless, bad internet, bad coverage, bad service
-
Andrew Owen (@owensirons93) reported from Corringham, England
@virginmedia any reason why you still haven’t fixed our phone lines? Been down for 3 months now so I’ll be expecting a reimbursement. Also expect a reimbursement due to the fact your failing to supply the minimum download speed

@virginmedia Thankyou I’ve done that hopefully they fix it 🙏🏻

Onearmedjohn (@onearmedjohn) reported from Gillingham, England
@BritishGas I’m truly astonished. I didn’t think there could be anyone worse than @virginmedia for customer service but you’ve managed it. I’m in awe.
-
Onearmedjohn (@onearmedjohn) reported from Gillingham, England
@virginmedia This is so tiresome I have complained so many times about slow broadband speed, unreliable WiFi, terrible TV services & only after threatening to leave did you send an engineer in July. This made it a little better, but recently it’s been unreliable of an evening.

Tommy Doyle 💙 (@Tommy_Doyle) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England
@virginmedia Hi, had a call this morning allegedly from you saying my internet service was compromised and malware was being downloaded, then proceeded to ask questions which I refused to answer. Was it you lot?
-
∂αиѕкι (@DanskiBoyWonder) reported from Rochester, England
@virginmedia They replaced the box and it’s all working now,I do have one other query I have the Virgin go app but I don’t have any content available on it,is this something you can fix for me? There appears to be an issue with my account I have the ultimate ooomph package if that matters.

paul fouracre (@moleyfozz) reported from Rochester, England
Two contrasting phone calls to @virginmedia CS this morning. Really unhelpful 1st guy / rude. Rang directly back and the differner guy was absolutely amazing. Mathew was his name and he needs a praise. 1st guy really needs a lesson in customer service. Thank you Mathew.

matt (@briggsym) reported from Wickford, England
@virginmedia how can I complain about internet reliability from your service. It has been appalling and inconsistent and seriously considering moving to another provider.
-
Ashley Halliday (@TylerTowers) reported from Gillingham, England
I’ve been on my knees far too much tonight. @virginmedia your broadband is awful these days. And resetting either fails or lasts 10 mins. From superhero to supergran. Not worth your monthly bill. #virginmediadown #virginmedia

ron palmer (@moebius1967) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England
Wow Virgin media TV services are down nationwide due to a power outage. That's an awful lot of compensation.
-
Em💛 (@emilymorgan_x) reported from Basildon, England
Can someone pls explain to me why @virginmedia wifi is so shockingly ****
-
matt (@briggsym) reported from Wickford, England
@virginmedia broadband speeds are awful - who should I go with @SkyUK or @BTGroup

⚒Adrian Smith⚒ (@adiesmith64) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England
@KAYI50747133 @virginmedia Yep how you have explained it is exactly the same for me, have tried my 2nd box upstairs but the same problem!
-
Kelly **** (@kellydyke08) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England
@virginmedia time now 11:14pm and certain channels still aren’t working, things said they have recorded when they haven’t, search function also still not working code c133. I think a refund is due to a lot of customers 👎🏻👎🏻#virginmediadown

Chloe Armstrong (@cjabuzz) reported
@virginmedia Every time you send us a message about returning our Wi-Fi hub we request a new box and still haven’t received a single one. Please can you help??
-
Jay (@jaycaterpiller) reported
@virginmedia green boxes &the constant unnecessary loud noise they make 24/7 with their fans. Get rid or use timers for peace at night. Who is holding virigin to account its like dealing with the abyss. Zero communication, zero customer service. @Ofcom
-
P a i g e 🦋 (@pw93_xo) reported
@virginmedia honestly the worst! paying so much a month to have no tv box or internet working!!!
-
Mandy Hailey (@CmdrSinclair) reported
@virginmedia Hi, your status page says no issues in my area but I'm only getting upload speeds if 0.5mb/s. Download speeds as normal. Have rebooted router 3x. Can someone investigate?
-
Mark (@Mark29071823) reported
@O2 @virginmedia Also enjoy the highest price increase of any phone network in 2023 with the worst signal definitely going back to EE
-
Umzyy (@Sonuk786) reported
@virginmedia Yes I have done that and it says everything is fine however my whole building is experiencing the same issue (those with virgin) mertings after meetings and this is causing inconvenience
-
D_apples ᶠᵃᶜᵉ (@apples_jiminie) reported
@virginmedia I have WhatsApp'd. Emailed and phoned. Why is this such an issue to sort and why should I trust you will sort it like every other person has promised but hasn't.
-
D_apples ᶠᵃᶜᵉ (@apples_jiminie) reported
@virginmedia I called yesterday and got told I was right that she didn't owe anything and it was virgins error in not updating notes adequately. Can you please check the notes so I am not explaining a sensitive issue in public?
-
HeezY (@AbdulAm92406044) reported
@virginmedia You should provide the service as per the contract. Since Virgin media have not honoured their side of the agreement by means of providing the service I pay monthly for, why would I have to uphold my side of the agreement?
-
Deppresso (@Deppresso) reported
@virginmedia I believe that this current area issue, is making it impossible to check if my local issue is fixed. The technician is due tomorrow to attend to the street and change equipment along the line to increase my low end frequencies. This issue has now been ongoing for 4 weeks.
