  • MrMcSmee Martin McGovern (@MrMcSmee) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Do you not understand it is absolutely nothing to do with speed? It's the constant outages! Pretty easy to work out how that is useless to me. Also, yet another outage with fix time tomorrow. Pls don't reply with another useless generic response as they are no help at all.

  • JardineClifford Clifford Jardine (@JardineClifford) reported from Middleton, England

    @virginmedia my package price has gone up again and I'm now paying almost twice as much as a new customer how do I leave without having to call

  • unlovedlongsigh Phil Samphire (@unlovedlongsigh) reported from Manchester, England

    @RabnawazA @virginmedia Yes my partners zoom meetings crash even though we got a 300 Mb line the Wi-Fi signal is not that great and we got boosters what we tend to do is use mobile data for the rest of us but we are in the fortunate situation that we can

  • teesh69 ✨$ERENA✨ (@teesh69) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Thank you, but there is no point. I’ve spoken to 6 people who have all either lied or said they can’t help. Would be grateful to know why your company records calls but then refuses to listen to them though? Thanks

  • JardineClifford Clifford Jardine (@JardineClifford) reported from Middleton, England

    @virginmedia You have a covid notice saying don't call unless its an emergency so I'm using chat.... 13hrs later still waiting.... customer care and satisfaction has never been a strong point with virgin media

  • Woodylass Gemmalea Woodward 🐝 (@Woodylass) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia I recently put in a request to cancel my contract. The email is from an operative offering a good deal, but its asking me to call him on on his mobile as he's working at home

  • PamThornes Pam Thornes (@PamThornes) reported from Greetland, England

    @virginmedia She is in the process of cancelling but made her decision. The boxes were removed by your engineer although customer services said they were not, but they were. And Virgin about 18months ago charges her £31 ish twice then upped it to £45, £46..

  • Josh_Deegan Josh Deegan 💙 (@Josh_Deegan) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Yep. Checked all that, used the app and it says everything is great. I called the customer service line yesterday and it said it needed to send something down the line but nothing happened.

  • nathangreen101 Nathan (@nathangreen101) reported from Salford, England

    WiFi is down. I repeat, my WiFi is down @virginmedia though service checker website says no faults....

  • Weirdyweirdtwit Simon Ritchie (@Weirdyweirdtwit) reported from Manchester, England

    Oh @virginmedia yesterday I upgraded my broadband speed for the kids & I to WFH effectively (double what it was) & sure enuff it’s now not working at all 😡 & been on hold 20 mins plus to a special tech line you bundled in for me ... kids next lesson in 10 mins!

  • Josh_Deegan Josh Deegan 💙 (@Josh_Deegan) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Guys, this is happening again today and is worse than its ever been. There HAS to be something wrong with either the router or the cable, as I've done everything in my power to fix it. This is making my job impossible to do and I'm suffering with falling behind because of it

  • outspokenoneuk Marc Lloyd (@outspokenoneuk) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia are honestly useless! Rang with the same issue I think 12 times each time they tell me there isn’t an issue, like I’ve got time to ring and tell them issues that aren’t there! I’m tempted to just cancel my direct debit and go to sky

  • outspokenoneuk Marc Lloyd (@outspokenoneuk) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia How about I just pay when you fix all the issues? I’m sure that if I don’t fulfil my terms of the contract regards to payment you will disconnect me but you are ok to not provide me with internet or TV services that I pay for

  • Kellkat77 Kelly Thorley (@Kellkat77) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia on hold with Virgin Mobile over 1 hour only to be cut off, no decency to even call me back? Spent over 4 hours in the week holding for Virgin Media to be cut off twice! Again no call backs? Appreciate waiting times are longer but this is appalling service. Fewming 🤬

  • pete_vella Pete Vella (@pete_vella) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia yet another broadband install cancelled at the last minute. Spent 10’s of hours trying to speak to somebody and today I was assured that the service would be connected. Despicable company. Blame COVID all you like, but you’re just completely useless. OFCOM claim!!

  • HankinsonAdam adam hankinson (@HankinsonAdam) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia why again do I have poor internet even when u have upgraded me just a joke and when you try and call there is no one to answer the phones

  • Josh_Deegan Josh Deegan (@Josh_Deegan) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia For months and months on end my WiFi has been in and out like the hokey bloody cokey. I've downloaded the signal check app and it tells me signal is great when it's clearly not. Trying my best to work from home but this is causing me unwelcome stress.

  • MrMcSmee Martin McGovern (@MrMcSmee) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Thank you for pointing out what I already knew about my contract. Do you not have a response in relation to the actual issue?... The shocking service, & the obvious reason why an unhappy customer lacks any real desire to continue being a customer? Irregardless of the increase.

  • Josh_Deegan Josh Deegan 💙 (@Josh_Deegan) reported from Manchester, England

    Been on hold to Virgin Media for over 30 mins. Internet has been so intermittent for months and this week is the worst I've ever known it. Impossible for me to WFH with it like this. Missing deadlines and not able to speak to service users. Beyond frustrating.

  • outspokenoneuk Marc Lloyd (@outspokenoneuk) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I’ve got 3 separate issues! Nobody cares, I can’t use live chat coz that Isn’t working either! I’ve not had a stable connection for 24 hours, when it’s normally working I have to sit next to the router because the range is like 20 cm so I can’t use internet in any other room

  • MadameTrashheap MadameTrashHeap🕷 (@MadameTrashheap) reported

    @cinemanfilms @virginmedia @virginmedia There is definitely a wide outage in NW5 - our whole street here has had no broadband access for the past 90mins, just green flashing light on the router. Virgin page saying all is well - it is not.

  • jwaterman1996 jack waterman (@jwaterman1996) reported

    @virginmedia @LisaMillerrrrr @virginmedia Terrible customer service. I contacted their text service three days ago regarding a billing query and I've been passed between 9 different people claiming to be managers. I've been passed around text services, insulted, lied to, accused of lying.

  • roodolpha2 PLAGUE || roodolpha (@roodolpha2) reported

    @virginmedia I rebooted the hub yesterday yes, the network has all of its own admin settings and not allowed to touch them due to my rent conditions. Apologies this seems q waste of time as I can't do anything

  • NishaDoesnt nisha. (@NishaDoesnt) reported

    @virginmedia Changing the estimated fix time to 4 hours right as it reached the previously indicated fix time was very disappointing. Would have appreciated a more timely update since this is causing major disruption to everyone that is wfh and needs to be in contact with their employer.

  • sonalilakhani_ Sonali (@sonalilakhani_) reported

    @virginmedia you need to tell your staff to stop hanging up on us when calling to resolve issues & to stop lying etc. It's rude and pathetic. Fuming.

  • lucidcstowers Lucid Computer Solutions (@lucidcstowers) reported

    @virginmedia Sorry I don't think going on forums will help with this, customer could really do with some Virgin Technical Support. Can you DM me so I can provide you with their details please?

  • carolrich36 Carol-Lynn Richmond (@carolrich36) reported

    @virginmedia your call staff are a disgrace,your engineers are a disgrace,your entire service is an utter disgrace threatening customers really isn’t good customer service & to be honest you’re lucky I haven’t told you where to shove your service yet

  • dair_mr123 mr 123ri (@dair_mr123) reported

    @virginmedia why do you charge a customer the same price when they drop a service from their package ?

  • Jamesmeredith James Meredith (@Jamesmeredith) reported from Camberwell, England

    @CommunityFibre @virginmedia #broadband #internet I cancelled Virgin Media broadband in January due to poor customer service and very poor upload speed. Community Fibre are an amazing company! Speeds upload & down 150meg half the price of Virgin. Cust Serv outstanding!! CF!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

  • Julian5News Julian Druker (@Julian5News) reported

    @virginmedia no but it happens all the time in this area (it’s a constant topic on the Nextdoor app) and it’s never listed. It is disastrous when you’re WFH
