    @virginmedia @McBeth1977 You need to actually get to speak to somebody in order to raise a complaint.

  • 1972CW1972 catherine (@1972CW1972) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia seriously listening to stupid music for 12 minutes, gets thru, told to hold and then cut off 😫

  • WirralLiverpool Andy Wroblewski (@WirralLiverpool) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia Any deal that a new customer can get would be fine :) I don’t think it’s fair a customer that’s been with you for 10 years who already has all the equipment needed should pay more for less

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

    @stevehhh Virgin media is accessible, the problem has been reliability. A number of residents on those roads listed have had severe issues with the service & from experience BT Broadband is the more reliable. For example, in Eccleston Park residents now have access to Virgin & BT... [cont]

  • YODELhell YODELhell (@YODELhell) reported from Ellesmere Port, England

    Virgin Media demonstrating they’re as useless as YODEL when it comes to customer support.

  • 1972CW1972 catherine (@1972CW1972) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia That’s the number I’ve been on hold to, then got cut off. I have 3 phone acc, TV, broadband and a business acc. I just want to cancel one sim and it seems impossible

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

    @stevehhh so if there are issues with Virgin Media they can easily switch to BT. If BT High Speed Fibre Optic broadband can be secured sooner, rather than later, those residents who are experiencing issues with Virgin Media can switch/be able to access the High Speed Fibre Optic service.

  • IainMichaelDyer Iain Dyer (@IainMichaelDyer) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia Simply by reconnecting my services after saying that you were happy to rearrange the bill payment date and my services would be unaffected. I have been told this is impossible though so cant see it happening. Its really bad customer service IMO.

  • GeoffParkinson6 Geoff Parkinson (@GeoffParkinson6) reported from Tyldesley, England

    @davetherave103 @JusticeCraig @virginmedia It’s bad customer relations that’s seeing customer leave for Sky to many outrages on virgin

  • WirralLiverpool Andy Wroblewski (@WirralLiverpool) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @MattTRFC @Stemac2010 @virginmedia Yes Matt, I was shocked too I had no choice but to hand my 30days notice in, I’ve been with them since 2009 no way I’m paying £1 more a month for 100mb compared to what a new customer would pay for 300mb!

  • dancross88 Dan Cross (@dancross88) reported from Haydock, England

    Absolutely disgusted with the poor customer service and attitude of ‘Stefan’ from @virginmedia - rude, unhelpful and decided to end the call by hanging up instead of following my request to speak to a manager.

  • Lucy8720 Lucy87 (@Lucy8720) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia Getting seriously fed up of watching something on Netflix and 20 mins in and it goes off again. Same with my phone, always has an exclamation bar next to it. Internet is awful, i was told if im not getting what im supposed to be i can cancel which is what i will be

  • KRobbo1982 Karl Robinson (@KRobbo1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia are a joke! Ive lost my services for today due to their incompetence. Been on the phone for 45 mins and got nowhere. Complaint lodged which will also get nowhere i bet.

  • 75jacko Buttery Keith (@75jacko) reported from Runcorn, England

    Superfast broadband you say @virginmedia but no connection for virtually the past 2 days in the WA7 area. Each time a time is set for fix estimate it changes by an hour or even more, last night extended from 11pm to 8am and now saying 10.05am. Not good enough!!!! #shambles

  • simonmcbeth1 simonmcbeth (@simonmcbeth1) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @LeoNak8484 @bt_uk @virginmedia @virginmedia just as bad I’m afraid

  • YODELhell YODELhell (@YODELhell) reported from Ellesmere Port, England

    @virginmedia STOP parroting the same crap.

  • WirralLiverpool Andy Wroblewski (@WirralLiverpool) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia I’ve had issues during my 12month contract & I still rang up to renew. I was then told I wasn’t entitled to any new customer deals & I’d have to pay a £1 more a month for your budget service compared to what a new customer would pay for your top package.

  • amynaylorr AmyNaylor (@amynaylorr) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Hi, my 4G/Phone calls/Texts arent working on my phone even though I have 4 bars of signal, wondering if it's a phone problem or a problem with the virgin network

  • tiny_mischief Shaunna (@tiny_mischief) reported from Risley, England

    @virginmedia Nothing so far but our WiFi went down not so long ago, you upgrade us. Our box never turned up then there was a problem in the area (forever reoccurring) which wouldn’t be fixed for several days. Not good when you run a business from home

  • MrmeBoxbuilder1 Mr me Box builder (@MrmeBoxbuilder1) reported

    @virginmedia @RobNeill_IT Seeing this issue has been going on since July (confirmed by your customer services) Why is it taking you so long to resolve given customers substandard in fact awful internet with constant drop outs, Yet still charging everyone the same amount of money for this service.

  • DonnyFo0 Turkey teeth keith (@DonnyFo0) reported

    @ShaunfromDurham @virginmedia @bt_uk Omg no WiFi wtf get a grip fella

  • thesturge Claire Sturgess (@thesturge) reported

    @virginmedia basically the engineer tells us we've been 'unplugged' in the junction box and we need plugging back in. But when I try to explain this, they don't understand. And this time we actually had to get a NEW phone to prove there was a problem before a technician could be booked in.

  • MillingtonVilla Andrew Millington (@MillingtonVilla) reported

    @virginmedia since you’ve switch me to the @O2 network, my data coverage has been absolutely terrible. Not a great switch for customers for the sake of saving some £

  • MillinsColin Colin Millins (@MillinsColin) reported

    @virginmedia broadband been down since yesterday in ME20 area with ETA of fixing just increasing without real updates and now the TV which already had connective issues has now lost signal altogether. It had better be fixed before the England game tomorrow

  • ShaunfromDurham ShaunfromDurham 🇬🇧 (@ShaunfromDurham) reported

    @virginmedia We have done, they passed it to BT. Apparently your contractors have done this in most streets so clearly not learned the 1st time they did it. Disappointed noone is remotely interested in actually resolving the issue caused by your guys.

  • PercyWimbs Nick (@PercyWimbs) reported

    @virginmedia I would like to cancel my contract

  • RichardLadd_1 Richard Ladd (@RichardLadd_1) reported

    @virginmedia virgin my wifi has been crap for months now, constant lag and cutting out. I’m on fibre. Tried sorting online. No help. How can I get this sorted please!!?

  • thesturge Claire Sturgess (@thesturge) reported

    @virginmedia Just managed to talk to someone. Phone plugs into the wall socket (a virgin media one, the master socket & the only one) Now we've tried two phones, including a new one, they're sending a technician. (This has happened 4x before and it's always problem with the junction box!)

  • Kazzaa_24 Kazzaa (@Kazzaa_24) reported

    @virginmedia Both WiFi and wired has been an issue. Thursday 1st Dec was the first day I was able to connect but Friday and today I've had no/very low upload speeds again.
