  • JoeHolmes1994 Joe (@JoeHolmes1994) reported from Leigh, England

    @virginmedia I need to cancel a engineer appointment for Wednesday. I’ve already been on the phone 40 minutes and I’m not waiting any longer especially after being told ‘we’ll prioritise you’. Please cancel it otherwise it’s a pointless trip for your engineer

  • GaryLiverpool Gary (@GaryLiverpool) reported from Liverpool, England

    Do you have an issue in the Liverpool area. Service status saying no issues. But no internet@rebooted hub 3 times still no joy. Tried calling 151 and 150 and get an engaged tone @virginmedia

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

    @virginmedia I had a problem a few weeks back and couldn’t get through to you because of the queues, I expect it’s the same now. I should learn my lesson and move to another provider I think.

  • Anobrdedphoto AnotherBeardedphotographer (@Anobrdedphoto) reported from Birkenhead, England

    Anyone else with @virginmedia on the wirral having Internet problems? Not had anything for 2 days. Called to check fault an automated voice says there's an issue and cuts off.

  • mcknut John McKerrell (@mcknut) reported from Liverpool, England

    @SayBeano @virginmedia Just cancel and switch. Been very happy with @VodafoneUK gigafast for a few months

  • gms11uk Geoff (@gms11uk) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Stay disconnected should be the tag 1 hour waiting to get through on the phone to get a 24 hour fix to go back the next day to the same no connection They direct you to the web but it does not answer your question My recommendation dont trust a virgin experience no

  • Scraggmeister Mark Spencer-Scragg (@Scraggmeister) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia Ok. Thanks for this suggestion. I have posted something on the ‘Community Forum’, but you’re my service provider. Why can’t you sort out my Broadband speed issue? I’m paying for something I’m not receiving. #baffled #gettingannoyednow

  • Juliefundraiser Julie Lawson (@Juliefundraiser) reported from Seaforth, England

    Well done @virginmedia customer service at its worse. Rang to get help to open ports to get RING bell/video working argumentative staff parting shot pay us £20 and £5 per month we’ll sort your problem. You are a joke

  • Kayls3457 Kayleigh Speakman (@Kayls3457) reported from Abram, England

  • cbj622w livesformusic (@cbj622w) reported from Liverpool, England

    @KairenK @virginmedia @virginbroadband I've been lucky 10 months working from home yet to go down

  • NealJFletcher Neal Fletcher (@NealJFletcher) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia No, the picture still looks like I’m watching TV on a cheese grater. Looking at a few threads on your forum this isn’t a new issue either, customers have been experiencing this for well over a year. How’s about I stop paying for the TV part of the package until it’s sorted??

  • 2003mirror Lord David Hurn (@2003mirror) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia Ggod Afternoon I have been unable to contact you, having problems with the TiVo box all other equipment is working, the screen is pixelating not getters picture properly, done everything how can I get in touch using on line chat ?

  • Sarahsgracesmum Clare Marie Watson (@Sarahsgracesmum) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia been a customer for 10 years. Bills going up again and customer service less than helpful. Amazing deals for new customers though😡

  • mattwood1702 Matt Attwood (@mattwood1702) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia trying to work from home and it goes off, check online & network maintenance. Why cant you notify us to let us know doing maintenance. Communication company but cant tell customers what's going on 😡😡

  • peter0raw Peter Rawcliffe (@peter0raw) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I’ve been on the phone for nearly an hour for the 3rd time this weekend. Can someone get in touch ASAP as my TiVo box has stopped working. I’ve tried all online support and cannot get through to anyone. Very frustrating!!!

  • jm_donnelly James Donnelly (@jm_donnelly) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia STOP BEING SHITE!!!! Am I not even allowed to browse the internet now or have the @premierleague got you gripped so tight you have to ruin it for us all? Don’t expect you to respond. You never do 🙃enjoy my last bill cos im getting off 👋🏻

  • PammyVegas21 Pamela Lavell (@PammyVegas21) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia I was going to go to a better provider but was assured that the price was guaranteed until May 2021. You have broken the terms of the contract AGAIN. How many mature citizens who aren’t as computer savvy get ripped off by you? How is this being allowed to happen? Shame on you

  • Scraggmeister Mark Spencer-Scragg (@Scraggmeister) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia Morning. If you’re still here for me, Broadband speed still only (max) 120mbs. Still paying for 350mbs & I’ve factory reset my hub twice. Can you help please? Thanks.

  • NealJFletcher Neal Fletcher (@NealJFletcher) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Nope, no outages. It’s been the same for days now. As I say, it seems a common issue with your customers and has been for well over a year

    @virginmedia absolute p- take on price charges £8.50 extra in this current climate. Shoddy service - time to believe in better @SkyUK

  • beckydiverr Rebecca Diver (@beckydiverr) reported

    @virginmedia terrible customer service been on the phone 1 hour spoke to 6 different people and still no help. 1.05 hours in a you decide to hang up

  • simon_singleton Simon Singleton (@simon_singleton) reported

    @virginmedia i can't face the horrific low bitrate Ed Sheeran soundtrack while waiting to cancel my account on the phone - can I do it in writing or email instead?

  • OrganicZombie Mr D (@OrganicZombie) reported

    @virginmedia You miss my point, it’s all very well having super fast broadband but if the service is inconsistent/unreliable then it’s not much use Same issue continues today and the ‘fix’ date has just bumped up to end of today

  • markayre13 Mark Ayre (@markayre13) reported

    @virginmedia On hold for 1hr 45. No luck yesterday. Trying to cancel my service, instead you've changed my package. Send your email please.

  • GrumpyPing Grumpy Pingu 🇪🇺 #FBPE 💙 🐧#PATH (@GrumpyPing) reported

    @virginmedia In addition to any local outages (and a severe outage appears to have occurred in the Lancashire area) my new SIM has been decommissioned for no reason and it takes you A WEEK to get mail a new one which is not acceptable

  • colinjlewis78 Colin J Lewis (@colinjlewis78) reported

    @virginmedia It took u over 3 months to fix our previous problem, where as a company you lied, mislead and made things up. I spent the whole time chasing, and virgin media admitted culpability. Maybe if you improved your customer service you wouldn't have to pay so many fines

  • Iggy_B Ian Blows (@Iggy_B) reported

    @virginmedia Is there an outage in PO15 area?

  • MuntervilleVIP Adam Gibson (@MuntervilleVIP) reported

    Hej @virginmedia any chance you can help? I've been trying for 4 days now via live chat and phone to change my Home Broadband and TV package to no avail. Litterally 16 hours and no reply.

  • mand282 Amanda Connolly (@mand282) reported

    @virginmedia IVE SPENT 3 HOURS TODAY ON THE PHONE, WEBCHAT AND TWITTER TRYING TO FOLLOW UP ON A COMPLAINT I LOGGED 2 MONTHS AGO. I WANT THIS RESOLVING ASAP AND HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO SPEAK TO SOMEONE THAT CAN HELP. THE GENERIC CUSTOMER SERVICE NUMBER IS USELESS.
