    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

  • HenleyStatic
    Stuart Henley (@HenleyStatic) reported from Halesowen, England

    @virginmedia footy on BBC1 through virgin box about 5 minutes behind tonight. Not good service

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

    @virginmedia 2/ Despite that issue being due to a junction connection in the cabinet in the street, the op seems to refuse to look at that and just wants to reboot my router. Also claims it is due to my use of Modem Mode. Is there anyone in the UK I can contact regarding this?

    Kiel (@k1El_w) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia @YodelOnline your ability to deliver equipment is shocking!!! The customer service you provide is even worse!!!

    @virginmedia Hi, I’m getting around 80mpbs now, should be 350 though, when I try and test it says there’s a problem in the area, but no further information

    👻🎃Tara but a spookier version🎃👻🏳️‍🌈🇮🇸🇮🇪 (@TheBluestStar) reported from Coventry, England

    @virginmedia My parents TV and broadband have been down all day. My mum has been calling your customer service line all day and no-one is answering.

  • 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

    @virginmedia Async live chat (WhatsApp) sucks as you let me text you with a problem, let it sit for hours, then close it down if I don’t reply within 5 mins and repeat. I’ll just ignore all the comms.

  • nippa77
    Neil Simpson (@nippa77) reported from Headless Cross, England

    @Mtr95 @virginmedia I’ve had the same…so frustrating…just total lack of service regularly…if I had a choice of fibre providers here I’d ditch this shambles in a heartbeat

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

    @virginmedia I’ve reordered twice already. The packaging never arrives

    @virginmedia Sending me over bill again and again n customer service is even more worst

  • ReissOmari
    Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    Mad that I pay £71 a month for 350mbps a month for @virginmedia for them to only supply me with 40mbps, internet is barely moving, can’t even load basic web pages on my MacBook or phone. Problems in the Birmingham area??

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

    The problem in my area B37 has been happening for over a week can’t watch any TV now @virginmedia over £100 a month!! Plus I’ve been waiting 2 years for an internet booster

  • ReissOmari
    Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia It’s on both WiFi and wired. At this present moment I’m unable to get ANY network from the router on both.

  • 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..

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

    @virginmedia The ideal resolution would have been for VM to return the document as originally promised. We have dealt with other companies in this regard and all have been prompt and professional. Even the DWP accepted a photocopy of the POA. Why VM couldn't is entirely beyond me.

  • zcobb
    Stephen Cobb, #FBPE 🇺🇦 (@zcobb) reported from Coventry, England

    I just spent about 20 minutes trying to find out why I'm getting email from @virginmedia about a SIM that I didn't order. As far as I can tell, the email is legit and Virgin is sending me, and a lot of other people, a replacement SIM "to improve service." Did I miss a memo?

  • RobinB1971
    Robin 🤘🏻 (@RobinB1971) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia signed up for your new broadband and still waiting for the stuff to arrive. Apparently parcel is still at @YodelOnline main hub. This is the SECOND day I've cancelled things and waited for it to arrive as yet to no avail. WTF is going on!?! 🤬

  • jfrncs_
    John (@jfrncs_) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I have now tried unsuccessfully for 12 hours to use the WhatsApp service as again it goes around in circles if I am not immediately available. The number you helpfully provided hangs up after sending a link… please advise how I talk to someone about my account.

  • paragaz
    Garry (@paragaz) reported from Streetly, England

    @virginmedia hey. I am trying to speak to someone about my account but turns out nobody recognises my account number. Can you PM me to organise calling me please. I've tried the text message service

    @virginmedia had no service since the 13th May and just been told that the problem won’t be fixed until the 26th May after being pushed back from the 20th do I qualify for the auto compensation ??

  • Celtic_steph67
    Celtic Steph (@Celtic_steph67) reported

    @virginmedia have got to be the worst company on planet earth for customer service. You are just absolutely clueless and the left hand has absolutely no idea what the right hand is doing. Embarrassing. TV and Broadband on and off for over a week now. 🤡🤡🤡🤡

  • dollDCFC
    Dermot O'Leary (@dollDCFC) reported

    @Benleo I know this will be of little conciliation to you but I recently had an issue with my @virginmedia broadband. It required a new Hub. I phoned on a Tuesday late afternoon and they booked a call out for the Thursday PM. They arrived on time and fitted the new Hub. I had no issues.

  • Gridstip

  • DillB1976
    Dylan Brown (@DillB1976) reported

    @virginmedia my account has been locked for 2 weeks now, I keep getting told it will be resolved but nothing is happening, apart from me spending lots of time on the phone to people who can not or do want to help.

  • hrcastle
    HRCastle (@hrcastle) reported

    @virginmedia Is there an issue in the BH21 area? Been having issues all week, and impossible to actually speak to a human.
