    @virginmedia Trying to work from home with an internet connection regularly dropping out is a nightmare. This is an ongoing problem yet no service fault in my area. I am paying for a service I am not consistently receiving. Been a customer for many years but thinking of moving...

    Mark Cottrill (@Markycot) reported from Solihull, England

    And now you have been offline for over half a day with your website still saying there is no known issue?! I want to make an official complaint to both @virginmedia and @Ofcom , Your service is appalling and your customer service even worse.

    @virginmedia Absolutely atrocious customer service! Waited for my Hub 4 to arrive as we are now paying for highest broadband, it arrives and has wrong power cable inside, phoned to sort, on hold for 20 mins then speak to someone who has IT issues and has put us on 40 mins hold!

    @virginmedia why are not supporting key workers through these challenging times? Both my wife and I are key workers supporting the NHS & the food industry from home yet you fail to fix our Broadband issues for 3 weeks. We can’t work. @piersmorgan @BorisJohnson

  • SharonNaokes
    sharon Elizabeth Noa (@SharonNaokes) reported from Wythall, England

    @virginmedia why send me letters with no contact details on for me to get back to you, put my bill up, yet fail to provide the service I’m paying for! I’ve been trying for 3 weeks to contact you to talk about this! Shall I cancel my contract..yes as soon as I can get through 😤

    @virginmedia Internet down again (had engineer here Monday). Cut off after a 62 minute wait! Tried the app won't let me log in as my password is wrong and it hasn't sent me any new password link (2 hours ago).

    @virginmedia Hi there, I have just dialled 150 but it’s constantly engaged. My grandad is having problems with his tv and I need to get it sorted. A technician came 2 weeks ago but it’s gone back to the original problem, how can I contact you regarding this???

  • mark_xc
    Mark Baldwin (@mark_xc) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia why are you not supporting key workers through these challenging times? Both my wife & I are key workers supporting the NHS & the food industry from home yet you fail to fix our Broadband issues for 3 wks. We can’t work. You just fob us off @piersmorgan @BorisJohnson

  • Markycot

  • SharonNaokes

    @virginmedia My main issue is that I need to speak to someone!! How do I do that? The line is constantly busy and won’t even put me on hold, the website says I need to speak to someone to deal with my requests! Can you see my problem? It’s appalling.I’m paying for a service I’m not receiving

    @virginmedia Can someone just call me? I've had enough of trying to speak to anyone on webchat or WhatsApp or your help page. I was promised a complete refit today. Nothing.

  • subhajitb
    Subhajit Banerjee (@subhajitb) reported

    @virginmedia Now it’s showing broadband issues in area with expected fix by tomorrow. Not great!

  • abbienicolex
    abocado 🥑 (@abbienicolex) reported

    @virginmedia we had to log a complaint earlier as we’ve been without wifi for over a week, keep being promised technicians will come out and they never do. We were told someone would call by 5 today, they haven’t. Who can I actually talk to about this?

  • Blacksmith3989
    Steven R. Smith (@Blacksmith3989) reported

    Got a call from a pushy @virginmedia sales rep who led me on about a free speed upgrade to my broadband, before quietly mentioning it will be more money. I barely get the speeds I'm meant to, and constant service interruptions 4 - 5 times a day.

  • DunlopRach
    Rach D (@DunlopRach) reported

    @virginmedia I have just received a new contract from Virgin Media for 18 months and I never asked for it. All broadband, tv and phone are no longer working. Confused and cannot get through to customer services - trying 45 mins!!! Anyone experienced this. Thanks

  • FreddieBujko
    Freddie Bujko (@FreddieBujko) reported

    @virginmedia our install date was today. Technician came and installed box / router, but says a cable needs to be ran to the house and left. No idea when this is going to be sorted and our app implies our service is up and running. How can we get confirmation of a new technician?

  • dominikabolon
    Dominika (@dominikabolon) reported

    @virginmedia since you guys respond here better than on your phones… why has my internet been down for 5 days with no response from your team? 😒 #virginmedia

  • abbienicolex
    abocado 🥑 (@abbienicolex) reported

    @virginmedia Not any more, someone came out to ‘fix’ our wifi on Monday, found an issue with the cable outside. We have been told someone will come back every day this week and no one has. They fixed the cable we are just waiting for someone to come and connect to the house again.

  • Blacksmith3989
    Steven R. Smith (@Blacksmith3989) reported

    So I sure as hell am not paying MORE for the shoddy service @virginmedia already provides me. I've been a customer for over 5 years and my complaints are constantly ignored. Maybe it's time to move. Hell, Sky has much better prices. All cheaper than my current package.

  • matt18barnes
    Matt ‘Barnsey’ Barnes (@matt18barnes) reported

    @virginmedia No, all devices connect then disconnect straight away. The engineer that came said there was a loose wire in the box across the road and fixed it but still having issues! This has gone on for over 2 weeks! We have to use phone data and our landline doesn’t work
