    @LenFPS @virginmedia they don’t care. it only happens 7pm onwards but will happen until the next morning so I can’t stream or anything. and they’re telling me to write on a forum as if that will fix it😤

  • Stephen12857059
    Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England

    Once again the Internet Orovider that claims to be the best @virginmedia, has an outage. I bet all my savings there would be significant kick back if the directors didn’t get paid, because the Lady dealing with their account cannot get online. Time has come for change #cancelVM

    @virginmedia how am I supposed to book an engineer? There are issues with the quick start installation I have and need an engineer to set it up for me

  • scbadham
    Scott badham (@scbadham) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia really disappointed in the service lately all it does is keep dropping. I’ve had no Internet services for the last hour again the fourth time this week and it’s still not working

  • stumccullagh

    @IanMurphy111 @virginmedia Been with them since Telewest I don’t know why I stay false promises poor service

  • robintjohnson8
    Robin Johnson (@robintjohnson8) reported from Coventry, England

    @virginmedia Thanks. While I’m on the subject - why does it ALWAYS take multiple attempts to sort anything out with VM? Your WhatsApp and online support workers usually sign off with ‘rest assured you will not have to contact us again’. But this is rarely true?

  • Stephen12857059
    Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Nobody has called me and the WhatsApp chat is very frustrating and not dealing with the issue. This is very simple, I was sent contract paperwork with an agreed monthly fee of £86.75. Why have I paid two months of excessively higher payments. I should have left VM

  • stumccullagh
    Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Solihull, England

    All TV boxes playing up , had issues for a couple of days now can’t get through on phones is there any issues in B37 area ? @virginmedia also I’ve been waiting nearly 2 years for my wifi booster

  • saqibsvideos
    ch Saqib (@saqibsvideos) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I did, and told them everything what's been happening they goes we will sort out and I still getting emails from virgin I don't know why and problem is still there and bill getting delayed which I been told them about that and its keep happening since January

    Kev Maslin (@kevmaslin) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia your treatment of us over a Lasting Power of Attorney issue has been appalling. Your people have actually SHREDDED a document costing hundreds of pounds despite us being told it had been returned. CISAS has been invoked and your CEO will be told . @MoneyTelegraph

  • EvanD
    Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve done that. My connection drops out for a minute or so every 30-60 mins. Hard to replicate. My account has notes regarding the reason why the credit was given last time. Ideally I don’t want to wait so long for the same issue to be fixed.

    Phil Queenan (@philq001) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Ian66232919 @virginmedia @02 have been awful and the reception is non existent, especially any where near Villa Park. May as well not take my phone out.

  • amancalledalex
    Alex Barker (@amancalledalex) reported from Coventry, England

    @GeorgeMonbiot @VodafoneUK I had a problem with @virginmedia which eventually got sorted out, but not before going to their Executive Team. Customer care was nonexistent on the phones. Customer care is challenging but staff need to show much more empathy with the customer.

  • stumccullagh
    Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia But when a contract is agreed like a mortgage or a fixed energy deal surely the agreement should last the full term. I’ve had issues since September & been told I can’t leave due to being under a contract so why should my costs go up when I’ve got an agreement in place until Dec

  • s_birket
    Daisy (@s_birket) reported from Coventry, England

    @virginmedia Internet suddenly cut out yesterday, all checks done, but first available tech appt is 3rd Nov. I wfh, that will be 5 days without broadband. That's appalling.

  • kolapoagunbiade
    TheBosz (@kolapoagunbiade) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately, you dont have a ticketing system or cobtact email to track issues, rather a phone system that requires you to wait forever to get through to an agent. A/c number: 095063606. I was charged x2.5 of what i was tp pay.

  • stuartc87
    Stu (@stuartc87) reported from Coventry, England

    @JLDawson1989 @virginmedia For the purpose of a better service as well. Joke

    @eerosupport hi. I have a Eero 6+. If I connect it to @virginmedia 1gbps service, will I get 1gbps?

    @virginmedia @El_Lloydie It's pointless sending you lot messages as customer services is an absolute joke.

  • philbreadin
    Phil (@philbreadin) reported

    @virginmedia how come my bill has jumped from £55 to £72 mid contract? I understand it's April and a small price increase is expected but £17 is taking the mick. With the issues I've had lately @sky is looking more tempting.

  • loubylou60

    @virginmedia Why is my tv not working and why can’t I get through to customer service - been trying since this morning. What a terrible service!

  • Do08dds
    Ian Dodds (@Do08dds) reported

    @virginmedia app not working yet again! Cheers for another ruined evening

  • MikeModelsky
    Michael “Mecha” Modelsky (@MikeModelsky) reported

    Is anyone else on @O2 finding that since the @virginmedia team up the service is horrendous, has taken my partner seven weeks to get their account unlocked, no it’s been unlocked. They can’t pay their bill due to an insecure website issue and too many redirects.

  • abbyr6498
    Abby R (@abbyr6498) reported

    @virginmedia never been so pissed off about something so minor. But the way your customer service team are is ridiculous. Then to try and say I will arrange the charge to be waived as if that solves the issue. Nothing should be waived for starters as I didnt get what I purchased

  • PaddyMc_06
    Patrick McNamara (@PaddyMc_06) reported

    @virginmedia I’m trying to get ahold of you but your phone service is on a loop. Tell me why you have not carried over my parents landline of over 40 years as requested and confimed. This needs to be fixed ASAP for very impotent specific reasons. Please get in touch to sort this!

    Rep74NL (@JohnnyRep74) reported

    @virginmedia your Webchat is awful , got an email regarding upgrading to 360 . Directed to webchat , 35 minutes later still trying to sort out what is an easy request . Your agent takes 10 minutes between each response to answer . I’m not bothering now

    I feel like I'm on a complaining streak but here goes: This one is for @O2 I have been a loyal customer since the switch-over of Virgin Media customers. I barely use data. So, I've been more than happy with my £9.73/month tariff. The data is unimportant. Unlimited calls/texts is
