  • alandean1878 Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia Still a problem. Programmes we recorded Thurs & Friday are unwatchable (& not available on Catch Up for some reason)

  • CharlieIDIC IDIC (@CharlieIDIC) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia just found out as I’m an oomph customer on volt I should get broadband of 350 but getting 53 jitter is beyond a joke too. What happened?

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @Lizzim18 @virginmedia Poor service. It's annoying isn't it?

  • MOL_FSG Chris molyneux (@MOL_FSG) reported from Warrington, England

    @CISASUK yet again you have closed my case without adjudication being completed??? I am starting to think you play a part WITH Virgin media now Extremely poor

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia Long conversation. There is definitely a problem which is not good as engineer was here Monday. Booked another visit for Friday evening. So no tv for me until Friday. Can't get Prime or Netflix. This is not satisfactory is it? I live alone, so I'm very angry.

  • AMEB62 AME (@AMEB62) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia complaint about customer service and nuisance calls being received with no one on the line. Told I had been emailed to follow up complaint but no emails received. Appalling customer service #poorservice

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia Engineer just left. Has sorted the problems with all 3 sets. Very considerate explaining everything to me.

  • CharlieIDIC IDIC (@CharlieIDIC) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia Planned work which is fine but the advert in writing and on the tv makes it sound good that you get data on your Virgin mobile if your broadband ever goes down. Just finding the contact for trading standards

  • garye1969 gary eaves (@garye1969) reported from Bryn, England

    @mikelavelle93 @virginmedia If it is ask them to upgrade you because of how crap it is. It should be free.

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia One tv is now working. The other 2 still saying No Signal. I haven't touched sets since engineer was here on Monday. Just used remote controls which I find inefficient.

  • DarrenMoggie66 Darren (@DarrenMoggie66) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia why do ask customers to pay for gadget rescue ,they’re clueless five days running now I’ve had to contact them about the same issue ,after each day them saying the problem is resolved

  • CharlieIDIC IDIC (@CharlieIDIC) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia Yes I know! They are doing essential works but you say broadband outage and you get data on your phone. That is a breach of trading standards as apparently you don’t do that

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia Yesterday 3 new boxes installed after weeks of problems. Just turned on tv..no signal. Tried another, same. Phoned & told wait times r long. Advised go on line & try to sort it. I am not a feckin tv engineer but a paying customer who is thinking of going back to Sky.

  • CharlieIDIC IDIC (@CharlieIDIC) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia are totally crap and lie. No broadband we will put it on your phone like! Call for 30 minutes beginning for help all I get is I understand

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia I have 3 tv sets showing No SiGNAl. Absolutely fed up now. 3 new boxes Monday & problems with sets since. Now none is working. 😠😡

  • CharlieIDIC IDIC (@CharlieIDIC) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia I already spent ages on the phone on Friday when I needed internet but you were doing essential works. I study, work and have a young daughter I don’t have time for long phone calls for a service that should work.

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    Problem with @virginmedia in my area. Unable to watch @jamie_murray & @BrunoSoares82 To say I'm miffed is an understatement. 😠😠

  • alandean1878 Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I've been on to the Service Status line, no issues. Used My Virgin Media app no issues raised with Broadband or TV provision. Still picture break-ups on some channels.

  • alandean1878 Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia It's worst on 601 BBC News where either part or all of the screen pixilates. But it happens on other channels to a lesser degree.

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia I can't get Amazon Prime on 3 TVs now. There's a problem I can't solve. I need an engineer. Going to phone again.

  • Chat4Prem PremChat (@Chat4Prem) reported

    @virginmedia No worries never had an issue with your customer service in 10 years with you! Not too worry I’m using mobile data so I should be okay until it gets fixed! Thanks so much again

  • kingmonkey25 KINGMONKEY (@kingmonkey25) reported

    @virginmedia *advice. Again, I'm well aware it's unchanged, that's the whole point of me escalating the complaint.😑 Your apology is meaningless without any action behind it.

  • Stewieatb Stewie, 87492 (@Stewieatb) reported

    @MattGrayYES @virginmedia Rip the box out of the wall and block the DD/payments. **** 'em.

  • mrphewitt Phil Hewitt 🕯 (@mrphewitt) reported

    @JolyonMaugham @virginmedia Never become a customer of @HSBCUKBusiness. I have spent many an hour stuck in a hold queue to no effect. They are appalling

  • STORMANGEL777 StormAngel777 🇮🇪 🇬🇧 (@STORMANGEL777) reported

    @virginmedia @virginhelp Remove these awful channels of my subscription package please! They are disgusting. They won't cover the equestrian team that brings back the gold medals. So I want the right to remove them, or cancel my subscription to you!

  • robcross82 Rob Cross 🐺🐺🐺 (@robcross82) reported

    @JolyonMaugham @virginmedia Hermes are terrible

  • ohsweetcaroline Caroline Reilly (@ohsweetcaroline) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah so it's a recorded message when calling same one we do usually (our issue doesn't have an estimated fix time). Any other suggestions?

  • LewisDickerson_ Lewis (@LewisDickerson_) reported

    @virginmedia Ah yes, an outage that has lasted 6 months but only at certain times of the day. Worst service ever, last time I questioned this and complained I got £5 off my £58 bill….

  • JolyonMaugham Jo Maugham (@JolyonMaugham) reported

    We need a World Cup of rubbish customer service to see whether they might topple @virginmedia. But who else would be amongst your top seeds?

  • ruthcs_art Ruth Collard-Stayte (@ruthcs_art) reported

    Bc we need to change ours (Zoom doesn't work on it, which was fine for my parents bc they don't work from home or use it hardly at all but I need to now I'm back) from Virgin Media and I'm not sure what would be best.
