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

    @virginmedia I'm not sure this is the 3rd box. It's the one with the router in same room. Re advice remotely got message saying problem could not be solved.

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

    @virginmedia Everything struggles to stay connected to the Internet. Mobiles, laptops, the TV's. I'm not sure if the speed is an issue as I haven't checked it. (I'm not sure how to.)

  • ZachcloseYT zach close YT 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈 (@ZachcloseYT) reported from St Helens, England

    You say you care about your customers and if you did you would fix your ******* **** Internet problems that everyone is having and don't even bother replying @virginmedia

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

    @virginmedia In this room have always had problems but just not like today. The router is just over 2 metres from box.

  • Parleyyyyyy Josh (@Parleyyyyyy) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia I’ve just done that. If you watch the video though you’ll see it doesn’t even let me get to the login page. As soon as I click on virgin media customer it tries to take me to a website & then closes down

  • ZachcloseYT zach close YT 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈 (@ZachcloseYT) reported from St Helens, England

    Before covid came you was brilliant @virginmedia but ever since then you have been really **** and if it not sorted by next Sunday we are leaving you it literally 2023 and you still got **** service

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

    @virginmedia Thanks. Very frustrating and time consuming. Spent whole afternoon trying to sort it. Twitter not really the best way to resolve issues especially with an 82 year old.

  • RayWaring Ray Waring (@RayWaring) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Please contact me via this route - will be the quickest way to respond and resolve the issue

  • AckerHeron Tony (@AckerHeron) reported from Liverpool, England

    Hi @virginmedia, my dear old mum has been on the phone for 20 minutes because her broadband has gone down. Your advisors keep saying to reset the hub and disconnecting before it's sorted. Any ideas? Still using the crap one you sent years ago despite her recontracting

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

    @virginmedia I have a booster. It was sent to me last Spring because of previous problems with TV in this room.

  • 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”

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

    @VirginMedia Received message. Now not accepting my email address. I have one only. My problem is with the remote control which is activated by pressing 2 buttons when they light up. Have had nothing but trouble with one remote for one TV. Your communication us not helpful.

  • Robertlfc_ Rob (@Robertlfc_) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia fix ur awful service!!!!

  • RayWaring Ray Waring (@RayWaring) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Sorry I really don’t get it. A few hours ago I was told that your team would investigate etc. Now you’re telling you don’t have any access so I’m left to hang on with no one from VM being able to update me. Is that it?

  • CllrMichaelHaw Councillor Michael Haw *🇺🇦 (@CllrMichaelHaw) reported from Eccleston, England

    Virgin media customer service 🥴😭🤯

  • NdawanaY Ndawana Youngson (@NdawanaY) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Too many service drops. Engineer has been to properly to fix but this persists.

  • NdawanaY Ndawana Youngson (@NdawanaY) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia They worked on it, or so I thought. I was told they fixed some external connections issue (outside the house)

  • Robertlfc_ Rob (@Robertlfc_) reported from Liverpool, England

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

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

    @virginmedia The nightmare continues!!! Buffering is now a way of life for us. As is watching any programme on a streaming service in short two minute bites!

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

    @jenwahkiddles @virginmedia Pity they didn’t do it for us, had no tv or broadband for over 3 months and can’t even get the compensation they owe us, plus the direct debits they took knowing we had total loss of service. Shambolic company.

    When you think @virginmedia customer service can't get any worse wow gutter level. Charge a new fee for a new package but don't provide the new package. When I call them oh right I can disconnect you right now lol. Bt sky and EE will be rubbing their hands.

  • CraftyNigel Nigel Craft (@CraftyNigel) reported

    @virginmedia hi , I have a neighbour who wanted to sign up to virgin media for the first time I sent her a refer a friend code as we are with your and we spend all night trying to sort it out for her , she wanted broadband and a tv box like ours but the link didn’t work , I then tried ringing you on her behalf , couldn’t get hold of anyone , I then tried to order online but couldn’t do that either as she doesn’t have any broadband and never has it was saying she could install it all herself , she’s nearly 80 , we gave up in the end and she’s gone home very disappointed, just wondered how she is going to get this resolved

  • MATEACOTT MAT EACOTT (@MATEACOTT) reported

    This is just a quick question to all of those that have @skytv and @virginmedia I know that the contracts for both Virgin Media and Sky TV say that the equipment is on loan to the individual with the service but years ago when we used to have the old sky analog boxes we could purchase the boxes and even we left sky TV over Virgin Media we could still keep the boxes now the only reason I don’t think it’s fair that you can’t now is because we are paying an extortionate price for cable TV and you can’t even keep the stream even if you leave the service and I don’t understand why you can’t keep the Stream put when you have to pay £40 for them in the first place and with what you pay for the bill you’ve paid for the equipment 10 times over this isn’t really a ramp. It’s just a query see if anybody agrees with me.

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @Ellegaughan @ComplainDe Yes, this appears to be a scam. ComplainDe is not Virgin Media's official account (that's virginmedia). Official support won't ask for personal details like that via DM. Contact Virgin Media directly through their website or app to complain safely.

  • johnnycantor_ Johnny Cantor 🎙 (@johnnycantor_) reported

    @virginmedia @O2 @British_Airways Yrs as an O2 customer, 3 phones, cant access account. Forced to link to Virgjn. Round & round houses with links via 6 emails. Takes me back to same place. Cant access any bill details. Used to be simple Face ID. I dont want 6 emails each time I try to login. Esp when not work

  • YoSinky Comedy Kenny Sinclair (@YoSinky) reported

    @virginmedia @O2 shocking standard of service. Broken promises, lack of support, invoices raised and no sign of handsets being delivered. No two members of your staff say the same thing.

  • Ellegaughan €||€n (@Ellegaughan) reported

    @virginmedia Don’t you think it’s ridiculous that a customer who has phoned customer service, who has spent hours in virgin media online messaging, trying to pass the gate keeping bots, is expected to solve their issues on X in 240 characters or less! This indifference needs to be addressed

  • johnnycantor_ Johnny Cantor 🎙 (@johnnycantor_) reported

    @virginmedia @O2 Customer. Gone.

  • Turtleflea1 Justin Smith (@Turtleflea1) reported

    @virginmedia @O2 Already done that. Five times. Been unable to log in for over a month and no access to emails. Terrible service. Please private message me.

  • JacquelineCabl9 Jacqson (@JacquelineCabl9) reported

    @virginmedia @ofcom @Plusnet 2 years to try to get a human to speak to about cancelling Their engineers still can't provide the service Here's the latest response
