  • davesheppard72 David Sheppard (@davesheppard72) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia the attitude of your call handler this evening when I called to cancel my contract proves me right to go back to @SkyHelpTeam

  • a_Muss60 Andy (@a_Muss60) reported from Solihull, England

    @BluenoseBeau @virginmedia I have 100mbs supply, over 6 months max received 76.4 for one test soon back to mid 20-30 worst being 0.7 I wouldn't mind so much if it was running at Ave 75%, not when it's seems to be around 35% mark. Oh it's constantly dropping the wifi too!

  • Georgekafetzis George Kafetzis (@Georgekafetzis) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia They don’t understand what you are saying to them. I had to say my postcode 5 times phonetically. Also on the phone for 45 minutes with no resolution. #badtimes

  • rich_pemberton Rich Pemberton (@rich_pemberton) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia land line and internet is fine however we have 2 mobile phones and neither can make a call can you confirm if there is an issue as there is no answer from the call centre

  • ManStickCar Louis @ MyBusyMind (@ManStickCar) reported from Birmingham, England

    @VirginMobile @virginmedia proved to me that they don’t do customer service. We waited a month for a phone sent to a wrong address, & then had to collect it ourselves. We also proved the phone had a fault from the start, but now we’ve been told to claim on insurance and pay £125!

  • walters_nigel Nigel Walters (@walters_nigel) reported from Birmingham, England

    Still no service @virginmedia in the B38 area this is disgusting and we should have some compensation

  • karriecheer ♥ Karina Aura ♥ (@karriecheer) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia It says no known issues

  • Sammykins9486 Samantha (@Sammykins9486) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I just cannot find a link to speak to anyone online at all, regardless of whatever issue I click first

  • edbaker1965 Ed Baker (@edbaker1965) reported from Redditch, England

    Well that call to @vmbusiness about #VirginMobile has seriously made me reconsider being a customer #Rude #Unhelpful and unable to offer any support other than ring Mon-Fri 8-6 HELLO business works 24x7 #21StCentury

  • iamsteadman Mark Steadman (@iamsteadman) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Hey, turns out you never DMd me. It was a scam artist and I narrrowly avoided getting my card details stolen (although I did give away my home address before I checked the username). That’s not on you; but thought you should know.

  • BenLimehouse Ben Limehouse (@BenLimehouse) reported from Redditch, England

    @virginmedia I'm an existing customer, I've been with you for coming up 2 years. The colleague I dealt with was so unhelpful and just told me to call back on the 16th. I have a back up plan anyway as I've just spoken to sky and can get a 80mb for £25. I can afford the 20mb loss for £34 saving

  • violah31 Carol Herbert (@violah31) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia has terrible customer service. I’ve spoken to 3 people and still can’t leave #cancelation #held_hostage 😡

  • goingabitgrey John McKeon (@goingabitgrey) reported from Birmingham, England

    @brumcyclist It’s a good haggling tool when trying to get the price down with virgin media

  • a_Muss60 Andy (@a_Muss60) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Sorry for my delay as I'm being treated for a heart attack I had on Valentine's day. When I tested and found v low speeds I could not connect to any internet, so I used my mobile 3g service to check for Virgin internet issues, which came back no issues in my area.

  • BenLimehouse Ben Limehouse (@BenLimehouse) reported from Redditch, England

    @virginmedia I have already called that number this morning. They told me there was no available deals. I've put a note in my diary to call back on the 16th. I'm not holding out much hope though considering the poor experience I've had today. I wanted to sort it today on my day off.

  • Caitlin__Wilson Caitlin Wilson (@Caitlin__Wilson) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia is actually the worst. Imagine paying money for WiFi which goes off multiple times a day and is slow even when it’s running well🥴

  • violah31 Carol Herbert (@violah31) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been trying to tell @virginmedia but the process is so complicated I was losing the will to live. Staff #rude and #persistent

  • Vix_Leonard Victoria Leonard (@Vix_Leonard) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia @Leyjay17 Same for us also B31 hope you will be refunding those of us who have been without service since yesterday afternoon and according to your online info will be until this afternoon. I am unable to work. 😡

  • iamsteadman Mark Steadman (@iamsteadman) reported from Kings Heath, England

    @virginmedia Just want to see a service status page, like broadband companies have. 🙂

  • evansaviography Andrew Evans (@evansaviography) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia @siandsal Well here in Solihull 120miles north no one on Virgin has a mobile signal either!!!

    @DanBassrunner @virginmedia I would say 3 days it will take them to resolve the issues if there is one. Make sure you sign up to get compensated.

  • maddiejade_02 Maddie Jade 🐏 (@maddiejade_02) reported

    @virginmedia I think the issue has resolved itself

  • DanBassrunner RunaChallenge (@DanBassrunner) reported

    @virginmedia when are we going to be back ONLINE??? SE17 Internet down for 24hrs now 😡

  • Digital_Ellie Ellie Lambert (@Digital_Ellie) reported

    @virginmedia It's S6 2WH. It has reconnected now but six times this week it has cut out, and on three occasions I was on work conference calls. What is causing this issue and will you be resolving it?

  • louisnorway Louis Hervik (@louisnorway) reported

    @virginmedia why is my latest bill the exact same as normal even though your service was down for a few days last month? Your customer care is appalling.

  • sarahjcreative Sarah-Jayne (@sarahjcreative) reported

    @virginmedia hello, It seems to be residential for me - I can access Some Wix sites, some not - so is not purely WIX sites. Someone has posted a NON-wix sites in the forum. Many people in North London, but others also now saying it's an issue. Please view the forum link in my original post.

  • lougeobar Louis George Barker (@lougeobar) reported

    @virginmedia Wi-Fi down since yesterday, seriously impacting my WFH abilities and significantly disrupting my day to day activities/plans. After calling 3 times and hearing the same automated message about the team working on the issue in SE17, my patience is wearing thin!

  • luke15212 Luke (@luke15212) reported

    Virgin media down?

  • C25990098 C (@C25990098) reported

    @virginmedia There is no active service.

  • ninickrees Gowervannika (@ninickrees) reported

    @virginmedia Why is my 5G contract phone rarely achieving even a 3G signal of late. Genuine question - what am I paying for?
