    @virginmedia business installation, been given 6 dates since 17th January. 4 no show or wrong booked, 2 attendance but not equipped to extend installation from 1sf floor to 2nd. even billed for a service which is not even installed yet. Nightmare #virginmedia #broadband

    @Damien_Clyburn @virginmedia They're appalling. I've had business version for 10 years. BT never miss a beat. Outstanding. Get rid of them.

    @virginmedia how can i speak to someone about my MOBILE account? my password doesn't work & your telling me my moms maiden name isnt correct!

  • PolymathTim
    SorachiTim (@PolymathTim) reported from West Bromwich, England

    Zero Internet connectivity from @virginmedia now for pushing 12 hours. Resetting and/or powering down the hub does nothing, the diagnostic and fault tools just go round and around in an ever more boring circle. #LightningSpeedFarce

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

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

    @virginmedia red button not working again!! @skytv, does yours work? #FedUp missing baggies after my shift 😪

  • BrianMCape
    Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia Just to let you know, I've taken the time to write out another complaint via the link. I've submitted and it says 'nothing to see here'. The link says response within 7 days, and the submission says 28 days, and then my portal says I haven't raised a complaint. ANOTHER FAIL

    Stephen Blyth (@steveblyth) reported from Stockingford, England

    I don’t mind joining the cacophony confirming @virginmedia is down. Maybe it’s linked to their space program going bankrupt. #VirginMediaoutage

  • BrianMCape
    Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia No. Already done it about 7 times without any luck. I refuse to waste more hours in queues, only to rehash my issues to another anonymous operator. I've been assured that this is in the hands of a named handler, who didn't call me back as promised and is ignoring my emails. Fail

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

    3 weeks now with limited TV yet still paying over £100 a month for svcs I’m not getting , I’m fobbed off on the phone that engineers are working on the issues , they’re clearly not can someone reimburse me @virginmedia

  • 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

  • paulinespelman
    Polly P (@paulinespelman) reported from Coventry, England

    @virginmedia We have done this numerous times. I feel like we are going around in circles. We have 2 boosters as not working at all upstairs and still no good. An engineer has been out, still no better..

  • steveblyth
    Stephen Blyth (@steveblyth) reported from Stockingford, England

    Yep. Down twice in one day. @virginmedia

  • 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

  • haychapperz
    hayley chapman (@haychapperz) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia what is going on B31 5 still without Broadband & TV from 11am and now being told fix is 12pm tomorrow. I have been unable to work all day & now problem is going in to tomorrow. This is unacceptable & I hope refunds for loss of service will be applied to all accounts.

    Robin Johnson (@robintjohnson8) reported from Coventry, England

    @virginmedia As I am a sane human being, I’ve already looked online for help. Why answer like this - an obvious bot response. ??

  • 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.

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

    Not only did I have to go out to watch the football because Sky Sports doesn’t work BBC has gone down so can’t even watch MOTD thanks @virginmedia

  • 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.

    youwouldntknowme (@lazylazydude) reported

    @virginmedia Please stop calling me every day to offer “deals”. I cannot have made it any clearer that I’m not interested. I’m cancelling as soon as possible because your customer service is the worst. It’s borderline harassment

  • Davies133
    Jim Davies (Ex Labour Voter & Member) (@Davies133) reported

    @virginmedia 30 minutes and counting waiting for someone on your retentions line to pick up the phone!!! It looks like I'm not alone in wanting to leave. Is this what counts for customer service? 😡

  • sucksfacebook
    Jacob Kaplan (@sucksfacebook) reported

    @virginmedia how do i register interest for a xgs-pon network line?

  • mattwhitby
    Matt Whitby (@mattwhitby) reported

    Is there a worse customer support than @virginmedia ? Ten minutes in between responses, and incapable of answering a simple question.

    @virginmedia your internet is down yet again and has been like this for days now . Will be ringing in the morning to cancel

    Is there an issue with the Internet in the L14 area, mine keeps dropping off 🤔 @virginmedia

  • AllenJohnson18
    Allen Johnson 🇵🇸 (@AllenJohnson18) reported

    @virginmedia I have been without internet, phone and tv since Thursday 13 August. Despite 4 engineers from VM and 3 Commex 2000. I have been blatantly lied to by your customer service team who made me wait 5days for an appointment. Sick of Virgin Media

  • gmkfyi
    Glenn Matthew (@gmkfyi) reported

    @virginmedia @O2 I can only assume the reason I’m getting an IDF-12B error is because I’m now using a Sky connection rather than a Virgin one. Same computer, no VPN… Trying to get into my O2 account btw… which support line do I contact?

  • tracyhunter66
    Tracy Clarkin (@tracyhunter66) reported

    @virginmedia I have had no internet or phone service since 10pm on Wednesday , it's now Friday and still no service

    @virginmedia A recent software update for Virgin TV 360 and Stream boxes intentionally changed the startup behavior so the box now boots directly to the Home screen instead of the last watched channel. This update aims to give you quicker access to your apps, recordings, and recommendations. It's all a social media. Everyone hates it. Do you take feedback from? Your customer
