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

  • 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

    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

    @virginmedia Typical Virgin Media response. Passing me on. Not actually solving the problem. I will never come back to @virginmedia and will advise all my friends never to think of using you.

    Claire B🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛ (@KittykatClaire) reported from Willenhall, England

    I'm so pissed off @virginmedia blackmailed me into signing my mobile contract with @O2 by saying my media account would be cheaper. If I stayed with virgin it would be amount more. So I had no option but to go with o2 and No my mobile Internet is crap. I can't use my doorbell

    @Ofcom can I complain about @virginmedia to yourselves? Had no TV service for nearly a month with no help.

    @virginmedia the most unreliable service going! Sky should be rubbing their hands together knowing that this shower of **** is their main competition.

    @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

    @virginmedia haha you mean the same forum where they didn’t answer me for days last time, and they didn’t resolve anything???? waste of time. they told me to check the speed and check for area issues. absolutely awful customer service when i’ve been complaining about this for WEEKS now.

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

    @virginmedia The TV goes all distorted I’ve done webchats phone calls the lot nothing has been resolved was told it was a problem in the area , neighbours have had no issues happened still have issues now but not as often but it’s a bit annoying esp when I’ve not had any money off

  • 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!?! 🤬

  • steveblyth
    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

    @virginmedia Hi. The team have also said that the issue isn’t resolved though? Everything has been reset multiple times this morning and still the same issue.

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

    @virginmedia Just called your offshore call centre regarding my internet connection. I’m having the same issues as I had when I got a £154 credit from you. /1

    @ChristineAllado @virginmedia I keep having this problem every week and nothing ever gets done and all you get back is we can't find a fault

    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.

  • 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?

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

    @virginmedia right I’ve had issues for nearly a month I’ve done the link there’s a problem with the TV box please can I speak to a human ? This is seriously taking the mick now

    @virginmedia can anyone tell me what the status is of the broadband outrage in CV4 please? All day it's just said there's an issue that your engineers are trying to fix. An ETA would be great

  • HopeForTo

    @virginmedia We have but over the PO post code area as a whole, it seems to be affecting many customers . Its two issues and its not our equipment its yours.

  • CityVicks
    Vicky (@CityVicks) reported

    @virginmedia My point was more that you’d know better than me, but whatever. No issues in my area are showing.

    @MichelleBeckett Truly awful. I worked in customer services for a very long time and @virginmedia just needs to get better. It's never about the profits, it's what you're doing for the customer. Put yourself in Michelle's shoes. How would YOU like to be treated like this?! I'm sorry Michelle.

  • DevilHatman

    @rokokoprufei @virginmedia I've had an issue with them for 2 weeks and counting. My downloads are fine but uploads are broken at a network level.

  • 2124Jim
    james mcgarry (@2124Jim) reported

    @virginmedia Outages do occur and that's understandable, what is beyond ridiculous is your customer service team. To tell people there's no outage showing when near enough a whole town is down is insulting.

  • George66Steve
    Steve George🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@George66Steve) reported

    . @virginmedia my broadband services on TV are down. Your app says you're aiming to fix this by 15 July at 16.07 (the false specificity impresses me not one jot). The issue number is F012372779. The issue started yesterday. Why on earth am I paying forca service that I will not..
