  • ainsworth_neil Neil M Ainsworth (@ainsworth_neil) reported from Redditch, England

    @virginmedia No my wife works from home 2 days a week. She constantly gets logged out. No help from customer service. I have the agents ref number and the rough time of the call. Very disappointed

  • thephdrunner Dr Emma Neachell (@thephdrunner) reported from Birmingham, England

    @_gl_lxuise @SkyUK @virginmedia Same problem here. They keep saying they have fixed the issue when they clearly haven’t. They are good at putting prices up but not at fixing issues. I’m going back to Sky.

  • foraneasylife Richard Baily (@foraneasylife) reported from Solihull, England

    Waiting over 22 minutes thus far for @virginmedia to answer phone, as I have no broadband service. Service suddenly went when watching catch up tv. 🙄

  • thephdrunner Dr Emma Neachell (@thephdrunner) reported from Birmingham, England

    @BFILeigh @virginmedia @SkyUK I don’t know you but Virgin Media as a company are so bad they look Sky look amazing. If you can cancel and find an alternative I’d do it.

  • Kimbohud 🇬🇧Kimbo🇬🇧 (@Kimbohud) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I have received a further two or three calls, following the request to remove one of the V boxes to save me some money, offering me different packages as a ‘loyal’ customer which would be costing me more! #youcouldntmakeitup 🙄

  • lukiee Luke T (@lukiee) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia Still go having issues :(

  • thephdrunner Dr Emma Neachell (@thephdrunner) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia B744LG my neighbour is also having issues. Internet keeps dropping out so there’s clearly some sort of intermittent fault. I’ve wasted 45 mins on the phone trying to report it.

  • Tedtalks13 Teds (@Tedtalks13) reported from Aldridge, England

    @ukhomeoffice @BrandonLewis ive one all this in my investigation to the fraud in court tht has a fraud log failed by @ThamesVP; via EE and well virgin media refused to co operate: fraud is easy to catches frombasic start of internet "the signal" for any signal to connect it has to have data communication

  • malcolmwhittak2 Malcolm Whittaker (@malcolmwhittak2) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia @TomMockridgeVM We are currently moving house and trying to cancel our account unfortunately the call agents think it's funny to keep a client on the phone for 3 hours even more so they are happy to direct us to a department that is closed which terminates a call.

  • thephdrunner Dr Emma Neachell (@thephdrunner) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I’m getting an access denied error message. A quick google suggests this is a common issue.

  • malcolmwhittak2 Malcolm Whittaker (@malcolmwhittak2) reported from Birmingham, England

    @jwhitt1970 @virginmedia @TomMockridgeVM Hi Joe Virgin Media and Mr Mockridge think about money in the bank, Customer service isn't on the agenda, it feels like authorised theft as all the time and effort on the phone is time lost with no evidence relating to performance. #CustomerService

  • DixeyBaker Sharon Baker (@DixeyBaker) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia trying to get some help with my router and I'm on hold for 20 mins then get cut off - no chat facility available and no email help - rather frustrating !

  • thephdrunner Dr Emma Neachell (@thephdrunner) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Cee_langie8852 @virginmedia Yes, they are useless. No service most of yesterday and as of 0530 this morning, no service again. I’ve spent hours waiting to get through to the technical team. It’s time @ofcom got involved.

  • tfd1977 trev1874 (@tfd1977) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia on hold listening to crap music for hour then disconnected on hold again for 30 mins now anyone working in faults tonight

  • markhipwell1990 Mark Hipwell (@markhipwell1990) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia So now I have to ring to cancel because that's too much or give you a chance to fix the price. Both take time out of my day when we only did this less then 2 months ago.

  • Kagey_infohub Kate Gordon (@Kagey_infohub) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia Not sure tbh- it took at least 2 hours for the update to complete. Our connection frequently drops and is slow.

  • DixeyBaker Sharon Baker (@DixeyBaker) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for replying! The green light keeps flashing which its never done - we had an outage in B14 yesterday- my internet is working and we have rebooted but its still flashing

  • Kagey_infohub Kate Gordon (@Kagey_infohub) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia I'll check, but slow connection and frequent drop is ongoing. We looked at switching but didn't move as not enough confidence in alternative ISPs tbh.

  • ben_velo79 Ben hunter (@ben_velo79) reported from Kenilworth, England

    @virginmedia possibly the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced #shocking #cancelmycontractnow

  • ben_velo79 Ben hunter (@ben_velo79) reported from Kenilworth, England

    @virginmedia Just spent another 20min on hold with no answer! Still no service since Saturday. Please just get someone to call me.

  • PariSeanGermain S (@PariSeanGermain) reported

    I can't lie I prefer when virgin media goes down for the whole country at least that way I know if it's just my internet that's down or not

  • CharlesBunker Charles Bunker (@CharlesBunker) reported

    1hrs 17mn on hold with @virginmedia and counting - given my password 4 times - and just to get my TV working. Such bad value for money. Time for a change. Where to?

  • whittickdiver paul whittick (@whittickdiver) reported from Sprotbrough, England

    @virginmedia after five years of custom you would rather me terminate my contract that provide me with the new router that you promised me as part of my new deal! Diabolical service!
