  • Horwichbloke My name is Michael (@Horwichbloke) reported from Horwich, England

    @sinners40 @virginmedia As soon as I saw an engineer messing about with the service box in front of my house, I knew I'd be in trouble. Supposed to be a upgrade to my service. Going well isn't it!

  • davidseale1985 David Seale (@davidseale1985) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Yeh I got that the WiFi in my home is fine in the sense that there are no black spots. I have extenders and wireless and wired powerpoints so not an issue it’s the actual speeds I’m receiving that’s the issue.

  • Lisa_P117 Lisa Patel (@Lisa_P117) reported from Horwich, England

    @virginmedia epic broadband, crap TiVo ... shocking my box every couple of weeks / less doesn’t work and I have to restart. The package I pay for isn’t value for money and calling up to report issues is painful, 35+ mins I was on for last time!

  • redjoker1999 Crypto🃏 (@redjoker1999) reported from Urmston, England

    @virginmedia I'm seriously thinking of holding my direct debit up. it MIGHT stand up in court now. time of service, against time of service PROVIDED. I'm paying for a POOR, POOR service.

  • Knitswithbeer knitswithbeer🐝 (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Same issue if I'm home, which I'm not at the moment. Incredibly frustrating that the only place I have pathetic Wi-Fi access is in my own home.

  • AdamMoran Adam Moran (@AdamMoran) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Well no, but the front door was opened... ‘now on the day’ team can’t access our account as you have an ‘area 20’ IT issue. You couldn’t make this up. Totally useless. Now on call to a 3rd person in customer relations....

  • WaynePBarrow Wayne Barrow (@WaynePBarrow) reported

    @El78790319 @virginmedia For us, this just added to a long list of other issues, we spoke to about 15 different people until we found one person who actually did their job. But they’re awful!

  • emmabevan_13 E M M A • B 💛 (@emmabevan_13) reported

    @virginmedia Thank you for that but it shouldn’t have to take me a tweet to get my issue resolved when it shouldn’t have happened in the first place! Just feel disappointed & trapped now!

  • ChiefOfOverIt Sarah K (@ChiefOfOverIt) reported

    @virginmedia I spent 45mins on the phone this morning for them to say the service shows fine. The technician that came said that you guys cannot always see the same thing. The box across from my house is covered in a big grey cover. It needs resolving outside he said

  • DJPhillyO Phil O'Neill (@DJPhillyO) reported

    @virginmedia Please fix your mobile data issues. It has now been a week of intermittent issues on 4G. 2 other household members are also experiencing issues on 4G. When will this be fixed? Any refunds likely to be issued for the lack of poor service?

  • Xuquelina Lauren Hymas (@Xuquelina) reported

    @virginmedia We've tried it won't let us speak to a physical person. Just says they know there's an issue in our postcode and directs us to the website. No further details

  • thegabbycabby chris forsyth (@thegabbycabby) reported

    @virginmedia and now I either have to find the money that I don't have to pay for a service I don't have. Get your act together I've been with you for years but mit for much longer as it's like you don't care. #poorcustomerservice.

  • WaynePBarrow Wayne Barrow (@WaynePBarrow) reported

    @El78790319 @virginmedia Nope! They’ve been useless. My parents are both deaf and the only contact I have with them during covid is FaceTime. Virgin just don’t seem to care about this issue 🙄

  • thegabbycabby chris forsyth (@thegabbycabby) reported

    @virginmedia you need to get your call centre staff to explain things properly. I downgraded due to financial and health and wasn't told it's yet another month in front even thought I will lose that part of the service in 2 days. Absolutely raging.

  • dagmardnoe Dagmar Noe (@dagmardnoe) reported

    @virginmedia Being diverted daily to 3/4 people that don’t know what they are doing really doesn’t help!

  • JayPodesta Jay Podesta (@JayPodesta) reported

    Hey @virginmedia just lost all my services - tv & broadband. Can see one of your ‘experts’ down by the box in the street. Please have a word ASAP.
