    @virginmedia Trying to make a complaint - signed up to a deal I clearly asked not to be. Your website doesn’t work and can’t get through on the phone. Can someone please dm me with a way to speak to someone urgently

    @virginmedia Hi, will this continued investment mean finally getting signal in my area? It’s a central area and the signal is awful. Thanks

    @virginmedia any help?

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

    @virginmedia To be honest, the issue is an intermittent fault. My wife works from home and the broadband just drops out numerous times a day. Then comes back on. It’s only worthwhile doing a remote test if it’s when it drops out. Otherwise all will look fine

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

    Day 42 of no service from @virginmedia. Engineer meant to be coming again today, think I’ve more chance of a unicorn showing up to be fair. 🦄

    @virginmedia No I’m not an idiot it was during covid I’ll go back and find it . The chief execs office rang me personally as I’m disabled

  • 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.

    Having the choice of the awful customer service of @virginmedia or the @bt_uk network which in my area might as well be two tin cans tied together with string is great!

    @virginmedia If my bill went down with my speed, I wouldn't mind.

  • 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

  • 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!

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

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

  • AndyMcK1982
    Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia So I’ve been told false information to make me sign up there and then! Terrible customer service there!

    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

    @virginmedia @YODELhell @AndyJ78 Worst delivery company going!!! Why don’t the companies that use them do a bit of research? GREED!!!!

  • tomrushton88
    Tom Rushton (@tomrushton88) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia Don't use this company its disgusting and disappointing the way they treat customers. Been trying to sort my contract out for 3 months now while they rob my money, create contracts that I've not agreed to and cancel complaints that I've raised.

  • jgrailpics
    James (@jgrailpics) reported from Liverpool, England

    Completely pathetic useless company @virginmedia Every single day there's some sort of problem EVERY SINGLE DAY Can't wait til this contracts over, after that in a bit useless crap

  • MarkLangshaw
    Mark Langshaw (@MarkLangshaw) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Hello, my broadband was supposed to be installed on 6th Sept but your engineer only did half a job and ****** off. When I call up to find out when you're coming back to finish my installation, I can't get a straight answer and nobody calls me back! Shite service!

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia I changed to virgin once. Lasted 6 months. They charged me for services I didn’t ask for or use took bigger payments than they should have and not one person on the phone spoke clear enough English for you to understand. Absolute **** show of a company

  • j_henderson__
    JHenderson (@j_henderson__) reported

    @virginmedia since 9.15pm yesterday we’ve been without tv & internet, now they’ve just text saying 2pm tomorrow to be fixed. Nearly 2 days to fix an issue is disgraceful customer service. Again we’ll be looking to switch to Sky or BT. Virgin Media are useless.

    @MartinSLewis Wayleave agreement on a due use pole and virgin media ask to use the pole… yep no problem…. Wants in it for me…. 🤫 then came back we can give you a £100 John Lewis voucher…. Bingo..

  • epwhamilton
    Edward Hamilton (@epwhamilton) reported

    @virginmedia You've also texted cancelling the engineer that I'd booked because it's a network issue, but again I have no information. Hence the frustration

  • AniaSowinski
    Ania Sowinski (@AniaSowinski) reported

    @virginmedia @beckykeating97 No we can’t as you are refusing to acknowledge it’s an area issue. It all went down at the exact time an engineer was working on one house in the street. It’s now been 24hours with absolutely NO service

  • alxwms
    Alex Williams (@alxwms) reported

    @virginmedia That just doesn't work. It is hugely painful ringing you up or playing blind darts to see which one of 20 accounts a text relates to. Just change things and start putting a postcode or account number or part account number in your texts

  • Jasonrfc90
    Jason ferguson (@Jasonrfc90) reported

    @virginmedia What am i paying u idiots for every single day my internet goes down honestly the worst service provider in the uk i would rather use my giffgaff internet than this **** show of a company

    Jeanette (@missjnyc1) reported

    @virginmedia Spent an hour and half on the phone with your customer care team. They couldn’t tell me why they hadn’t turned up, no way of contacting them. Have booked another slot for tomorrow, the team wouldn’t even read the number I had just given them 2/3
