  • simonandrebecca Simon Nadler (@simonandrebecca) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia trying to register an account on Virgin Mobile app so that I can provide a PAC code to you but don’t have an answer to a security question and have never set one up so I’m calling you as requested but all of your call centres are closed? 🤯 Not great service!

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    Having to use my phone data to tether my laptop for work as @virginmedia broadband has gone down. Ran through diags and it’s said an engineer needs to attend 🙄 Managed to get an appointment between 12-4 today which is surprising!

  • Airhairdressing AirHairdressing.com (@Airhairdressing) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia I need for my wife to be able to speak to support when I’m not at home. Can this be done on my account from home? Thank you.

  • brollybruce Bruce (@brollybruce) reported from Dunham Massey, England

    @virginmedia Trying to contact him now - it’s tricky but I’m sure you would want to step in and prioritise an issue which is of your own making and leaves someone for 2 weeks bereft

  • pagiemcfc Darren Page (@pagiemcfc) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia Good Afternoon, Can you confirm is there are any issues with Virgin Internet in general or in my area please .... mine has gone off and I’m currently unable to work from home .... it’s been off about an hour now

  • Michael_Gleeson Michael Gleeson (@Michael_Gleeson) reported from Bolton, England

    .@virginmedia is getting unbearably bad now. I’m sick to death of having to pay for extra data on my phone.

  • lexy1968 Alex (@lexy1968) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia Hi. How do I cancel my service please?

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Visit was put on hold as you later found you had a wider issue. It was resolved after a few hours so not too bad. Not sure how happy my boss was at me not being able to get online though...

  • brollybruce Bruce (@brollybruce) reported from Dunham Massey, England

    @virginmedia if your disabled pal has had an installation of yours which has been a disaster from A to Z and he’s having to wait yet another week for an engineer - how do I help him get the priority remedy he needs ? #askingforafriend obviously

  • brollybruce Bruce (@brollybruce) reported from Knutsford, England

    @virginmedia Complete disaster - can you please look on the account and sort out the problem - you have all the authority from the client

  • danpwright Dan Wright (@danpwright) reported from Manchester, England

  • andigill Andy Gill (@andigill) reported from Warrington, England

  • SafenaAlam Safena Alam (@SafenaAlam) reported

    @virginhelp @wbc247uk @virginmedia Hi I’m really sorry to say this but I’ve been with Virginmedia for well over 20 years and the service is really rubbish. Always have problems with streaming or using any service. Virtually impossible to try and get the kids to do online learning/ lessons as keep having

  • GuyOrlov Guy Orlov (@GuyOrlov) reported

    @virginmedia my router down for some hours I am trying to reconnect

  • parmy71singh Parmy singh (@parmy71singh) reported

    @mouthwaite @virginmedia Hi Tam same issue spent £300 on a netgear system has sorted it 👍🏼 virgin have been useless offered no option

  • benmevans Ben Evans (@benmevans) reported

    @virginmedia I did this previously and the automated service restarted my Hub but didn't fix the problem. Do I need to select something different for someone to look into this further?

  • Corey_Tobin Corey// (@Corey_Tobin) reported

    @NikiAlbon @TalkTalk @virginmedia Virgin are terrible! We normally had no issues but during lockdown it has been absolutely horrendous

  • T1Viper Tom (@T1Viper) reported

    @virginmedia Another day and still no answer this is ridiculous. DM me I want to start a complaint bad I want a call from your customer services so DM me for contact information.

  • JoeDocherty Joe Docherty (Clarke) 💙👨‍👦‍👦🌈 (@JoeDocherty) reported

    @virginmedia I've called 150 twice today - to no avail. I was told last week that the problem on the line (Since November) would be fixed by Thursday 18th and to wait for the upgrade. However this has still not been rectified. I was offered a small compensation fee which was embarrassing

  • Maggiestan Maggie Stanworth (@Maggiestan) reported

    @mouthwaite @virginmedia I had terrible trouble getting them to resolve something for me, social media is the best way to get in touch. FB page or Twitter.

  • NikiAlbon niki albon 🏳️‍🌈 (@NikiAlbon) reported

    I don’t ever tweet about this stuff, but I swapped from @TalkTalk to @virginmedia last month… and the experience has been hair pullingly bad... Like I’ve spent hours on the phone to Virgin over the last 30 days and my *super slow* wifi is still not working properly.

  • virusprostore Viruspro (@virusprostore) reported
