  • NatashaVic
    Capitã Nat (@NatashaVic) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Can I speak to a human, please? It’s impossible to speak to anyone here. I paid for my bill via bank transfer more than a week ago and it hasn’t been registered. Phone service is not recognising my password and I can’t find a live chat.

    @tonymc39 @virginmedia Really, truly shockingly terrible.

  • ChrisWAzure
    Chris Wright (@ChrisWAzure) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia The guy was the most arrogant person I've ever spoke to in CS, retentions is meant to be the end of the line, if it was my service and not my wife's 93 year old nan i'd have cancelled the contract. I asked to speak to a manager and was told "managers don't speak to customers"....

    No Wi-Fi internet in my area @virginmedia man down apparently 🙄@O2 signal **** … not sure what they’re excuse is 🤔😳….So I’m roaming round with my phone in the air hoping to get lucky 🍀 😳😩

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia It’s to our address, we need a full repull and was told it would be done within 48hrs. This issue has been going on for months, they were just telling me to reboot the hub.

  • TimmyJ1972
    Tim Jackson (@TimmyJ1972) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia I haven’t seen the credit applied yet, that’s the issue. This will be the 4th time that I’ve been told it’s been corrected and to wait around 24 hours but so far this has never worked

    @JamesSymes8 Virgin Media. It keeps going really bad.

  • laineypb2109
    Elaine Brown (@laineypb2109) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia 15% increase, don't think so mate. I'll be in touch via phone shortly with a cancellation notice. So much for long serving customer loyalty

  • TimmyJ1972
    Tim Jackson (@TimmyJ1972) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve been told this before… yet it never happened when my bill was generated. Let’s see eh..

    Colette Ellison (@colette2511) reported from Warrington, England

    @richardbranson you really need to sort out your company @virginmedia they a robbing gets. That company is bad in all areas. Some advice for people trying to cancel record everything for proof as they say they have cancelled it then send you loads of bills 😡

  • Robertlfc_

    @virginmedia thanks for the awful internet service, f*cking useless you are

  • EmmaZhaan64

    @virginmedia All internet is down, wireless and wired; the hub light is white and it’s a Hub 3.0.

    @virginmedia fix ur awful service!!!!

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Yes, this has been going on now for months. Was just on to your team to cancel, they hung up on me. I’ve never known a more woeful service. They are quick enough to take payment every month for a service I’m not getting.

  • TimmyJ1972
    Tim Jackson (@TimmyJ1972) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia I’d love to hear from how I’m supposed to report an issue with my broadband. You can’t do it via live chat and seemingly not via the phone either as you’re “experiencing difficulties”

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia can someone help me please? I’m about to lose my ****. Never ever known anything like this company. Now telling me lies on WhatsApp. Saying i logged an issue weeks after engineers had already been out to find the fault. Refusing compensation after 4 mths no service.

  • ChrisWAzure
    Chris Wright (@ChrisWAzure) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia ..i don't know what manager in any way of life won't speak to a customer! I called back and spoke to another member of the team, who has logged it as a complaint, a manager is calling me today and he is looking what he can do for a 93 year old. Being forced to pay £105 a month...

    Dansun (@elbondivad) reported

    @Ewan_Huzami @downdetector Down in East Surrey since yesterday too. Virgin Media app says service won't be restored until 11th August. Luckily I'm out of contract so I'm switching to Starlink

  • RichardOShea
    Richard O'Shea (@RichardOShea) reported

    @virginmedia I have a Virgin TV V6 Box with lots of tivo recordings. I received an email today stating that I need to upgrade as my v6 service will stop soon. Please advise when, so I can plan ahead. Thanks.

  • JayBee58963922
    JayBee (@JayBee58963922) reported

    Just had a call from supposedly Virgin Media, saying that there was a technical problem on the line, making my voice go all slowly on calls. Wow ! Really . Of course I fell for that. NOT ! What next, make me talk backwards ? Keep aware folks.

  • paul_wingrove
    Paul Wingrove (@paul_wingrove) reported

    @EDFofficiel Customer support at EDF UK shows a level of incompetence which is worse than Virgin Media, and God knows VM is utterly useless.

  • MattOfTheSouth
    Matt ⚡️ (@MattOfTheSouth) reported

    @virginmedia any reason why I can't get gig2 as a gig1 customer? Is it only available to new customers? Ridiculous if so. Postcode checker says it's available on my postcode if I was to order a new package?

    @biggle1908 Bloody awful. Been with virgin media for years. Last 12 months internet constantly crashing or really slow andthey doubled our renewal . Ditched them for EE. 24 quid a month with great speed

  • VallaNils13872
    Bo Duddley (@VallaNils13872) reported

    @virginmedia I’m in the unenviable position of having my broadband with virgin and my mobile with O2 I currently have internet cutting out constantly and a phone that can’t get a signal in the backwaters of Cambridge and I pay for this awful service

    @virginmedia @virginmedia Shall I start posting screengrabs of the conversation I had with your customer service representative on here? Or are you going to reply?

    Does anyone else in Ireland has @VirginMediaIE as their mobile data provider? It's THE WORST service out there! God do I regret switching to Virgin Media, this mistake has cost me money and patience.
