  • ZoSo365 Wasim Akram (@ZoSo365) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia - I have a replacement router however when it is unable to connect to your network. Its is not getting a public ip and the 'Network Access' status is blocked as opposed to Allowed. I need to speak to someone from the technical dept to get this allowed.

  • MikeJoiner1965 Mike (@MikeJoiner1965) reported from Harpenden, England

    @virginmedia need to look at this issue. Some won’t be so fortunate.

  • paulstevenlewis Paul Lewis (@paulstevenlewis) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia I’ve finally got an engineer coming on Thurs, which took over 24 hrs to arrange by message. Pretty bad, cutbacks rather than Covid I guess since many companies are doing better than this, & your high premium rate charges to call are not fair when my Virgin line is faulty!

  • cjpokemon3 Chris (@cjpokemon3) reported from Watford, England

    @virginmedia been on the web chat for over two hours trying to cancel my account as moving and been cut off again! Is there an email address I can contact?

  • SMCPT Scott McNicholas (@SMCPT) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    So @virginmedia can’t honour the upgrade offer they’ve made and the subsequent order I have placed. So from trying to upgrade to now cancelling our existing package altogether as a result. Poor customer service

  • adam_bucky Adam B (@adam_bucky) reported from Stevenage District, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I need to get someone to move my broadband over to ip4 not ip6 because my work VPN doesn’t like 6 and painfully slow. Spent a lot of time on the phone for a simple request, is there an email address I can contact for this? #virginmedia

  • MikeJoiner1965 Mike (@MikeJoiner1965) reported from Harpenden, England

    @virginmedia Although it’s fixed now you left me in a dangerous situation. I was unable to install new hub straight away. I needed help. Without warning my old hub had been closed by you without the new hub being installed. I rely on wifi for different area’s of illness....

  • Lloydyboy1 Lloyd williams (@Lloydyboy1) reported from Barnet, England

    Hi @virginmedia I have home installation today. WiFi isn’t connecting and is asking me to call contact centre but is when I call it is closed. Can you help?

  • makamen Michael Kamen (@makamen) reported from Watford, England

    @virginmedia hello, trying to change my package but the link on your website seems to be broken and can't get through on the phone can you help please? Thanks

  • sarahill42 Sara Hill (@sarahill42) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginhelp been holding for 15 minutes on your helpline for virgin media to try and help a vulnerable person. How much longer will we have to hang on? #nooptionsforelderly

  • onemistert Mr T (@onemistert) reported from London, England

    @jayrayner1 @virginmedia If the service isn’t down in the area then the fault could simply be resolved by restarting the hub. I guess you’ve done that already?

  • paulstevenlewis Paul Lewis (@paulstevenlewis) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia my landline is not working. You do not reply on the message contact service (blaming Covid of course, not entirely credible when other businesses cope ok now) & I cannot phone you as my Virgin line is not working & your charges from other phones are outrageous. Help!

  • OlaAgbaimoni Ola Agbaimoni (@OlaAgbaimoni) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Wow I’m shocked. Clearly a lot of people will have gadgets that can only support 2Ghz which was available as a separate SIDD on the hub 3. If you were not going to support it you owed customers forewarning of this fact.

  • StaceyRebekka Stacey Karlsson (@StaceyRebekka) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia just been on hold to your customer services team for almost an hour, the call has just been cut off. We have no internet, but you’ve still taken payment. Can you get someone to call me ASAP please before I report you.

  • mariobucolo Mario Bucolo (@mariobucolo) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia still having problems in sE6 london

  • SMCPT Scott McNicholas (@SMCPT) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia not interested in a customer trying to upgrade them?

  • pharmr5 diviyesh shah (@pharmr5) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia The internet has come back, it’s unacceptable that we have outages so often. Paying for a service or goods requires uninterrupted service. When that breaks down, we are paying for a service That is not delivered. I want to be refunded for a service I don’t get.

  • StaceyRebekka Stacey Karlsson (@StaceyRebekka) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia No. We still don’t have any internet or TV and haven’t spoken to anyone. @VodafoneUK have sorted us out with extra mobile data. Can you share an email address so I can make a formal complaint please.

  • harispurs82 Hari Patel (@harispurs82) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia I got a call from the sales team a month ago I accept the deal they offered me but I was in a rush. Can someone call me to sort that deal out I called your customer service team but they said I would get a call back 1 month later I’m still waiting

  • IIndigoMouseRH Rachel Hayden (@IIndigoMouseRH) reported from London, England

    Internet went down yesterday and suppose to of been fixed at 5pm once again no internet or landline. @virginmedia any chance of this actually working??

    @virginmedia Why can't your company provide a good service? Once again intermitent internet. Don't give me the did you check the website and restart the router, its done. This is a issue your end and needs to be fixed. I might aswell treat myself with a better isp for christmas.

  • TrainorRachael Rachael Trainor (@TrainorRachael) reported

    @virginmedia And I am stuck paying nearly double what I am meant to due to someone in your company's incompetence. Great customer service guys! 👍🤬

  • EliFernandez100 Morocco Mole Esq. (@EliFernandez100) reported

    @virginmedia Down again. Really? Is this acceptable?

  • NeilAsh44923566 Neil Ashworth (@NeilAsh44923566) reported

    @virginmedia can someone please help? I have fraudulent activity on my mobile account which has been going on for weeks, I have spoken to a number of people without any solution despite empty promises. I am now going to speak with Action Fraud and the Ombudsman.

  • oc8pm O8O406C (@oc8pm) reported

    @virginmedia Should I cancel my broadband and switch to another provider?

  • 76224p SAMMI (@76224p) reported

    @virginmedia Can someone tell me when virgin became like everyone dont care about it customers . I am going to cancel everything I have with them .I am fed up and disgusted.

  • JohnnyD87968172 Johnny Doyle 🇺🇦 (@JohnnyD87968172) reported

    @virginmedia No problem with the staff. The process however is an appalling user journey in need of a replacement.

  • kathryn_ellett Kathryn Ellett (@kathryn_ellett) reported

    @virginmedia It is very inconvenient to say the least and to know that the box was worked on last week that caused this or it is suspected . I'm glad whoever got their service back on is enjoying their package. We will look elsewhere for a better service than we have had with virgin.

  • TrainorRachael Rachael Trainor (@TrainorRachael) reported

    @virginmedia worst company I have ever dealt with! People on customer service line appear helpful but clearly have no clue what they're doing. Was sold a new 18 month contract and have nothing but issues since!

  • Sacto_King_UK Danny Williamson (@Sacto_King_UK) reported

    @virginmedia No idea No one is calling me back They promise the world, and that I’ll have a service before Xmas, then don’t call back I have no idea what’s going on, all I know is that Virgin Media make promises, and say they understand, then nothing happens
