  • TimEvans1503 Tim Evans (@TimEvans1503) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia To be honest this happens too often then often our speeds are not what we pay for. I work from home so costs me business when this happens. Rather then getting me to check things, I just need yo-yo to provide us with a regular consistent service at the speeds we actually pay for

  • Baggielee80 Lee Greenhouse (@Baggielee80) reported from Halesowen, England

    @virginmedia very poor service with the broadband cutting out every so often having to keep rebooting the box frankly not good enough for over £60 a month. Can you sort it out please. B62 area

  • charlottetomtom Charlotte (@charlottetomtom) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia trying to call to cancel my son’s broadband now he’s left his student digs. Called three times now, get passed to the cancellation team, on hold for 30mins then get cut off. THREE TIMES IN A ROW. please help

  • tweet_estaa Adwoa Agyeiwaa (@tweet_estaa) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia That’s not what my issue is. WHY IS THE INTERNET SO INCONSISTENT??? - and threatening to charge a £240 to cancel the contract for wifi that does work is very poor customer service!

  • tweet_estaa Adwoa Agyeiwaa (@tweet_estaa) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been having issues with my wifi since I got it last year and now we’ve been talked into getting a “pod” for an extra £5 p/m only for the guy to say it still doesn’t guarantee wifi speed. Whatever you lot are smoking please quit.

  • PM_PaulMartin Paul Martin (@PM_PaulMartin) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Tring to get a cable moved you’ve been out and said next day that was over a month ago WTF?

  • stevejones88 Steven 'STIG' Jones (@stevejones88) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia after 3.5hrs on the phone to your teams in every country from around the world today with horrendous customer service, can I get a phone number for a manager or complaints department in ENGLAND. Already filed complaint with communications ombudsman for Ofcom.

  • Arty_Mikey Arty Mikey Illustration (@Arty_Mikey) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia your broadband SUCKS. It's no wonder a local FB community group is full of people asking for suggestions for better internet providers.

  • Tricia__Winspur Tricia (@Tricia__Winspur) reported from Birmingham, England

    Hi @virginmedia any issues I B14 as my Internet is not working. I've done diagnostic tests etc & it reports no issues. My Hub has been flashing green for an hour, the Internet kicks in & then drops out again. I am a home worker and have lost an hours working time so far. Help.

  • tweet_estaa Adwoa Agyeiwaa (@tweet_estaa) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia If these pods don’t work, I’ll back with more reasons for why people should avoid using your rubbish service. It’s pathetic really that I have to come on Twitter to do this for you to be bothered just because of reputation. Disgraceful

  • EvanD Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ThreeUKSupport hi. My mobile number starts with 07305. It originally was issued by @virginmedia. I’ve had some companies try to call me (including the landline where I work) saying calls to this number can’t be connected or the number isn’t available. Is there an easy fix?

  • TimEvans1503 Tim Evans (@TimEvans1503) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Would it be ok to not just send me the same message each time but tell me how you’re going to make sure the service what it should be? Both my wife and my work is utterly dependent on good internet access

  • andyjuk Andrew Jones (@andyjuk) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia have to say, even with no voice, Stan on your customer support team provides better service than some of the outsourced centres!

  • Nikkyt_23 Nicole Talbott (@Nikkyt_23) reported from Birmingham, England

    @_adam_cohen_ @virginmedia Adam. Story of my life complaining to VM! I’ve had 7 engineers to fix the same problem and then today some little **** called Melissa told me she has already been on the phone for 30 minutes with and put the phone down!

  • tweet_estaa Adwoa Agyeiwaa (@tweet_estaa) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia They said they’ve run diagnostics and found no issues so basically I’m making it up in my head ???? Tbh this is terrible and a waste of time paying my bill

  • mrmjprice MJP ☀️ (@mrmjprice) reported from Birmingham, England

    @deepblue1990 @virginmedia Power users are utter bastards to provide support for tbf

  • shannxnj Shannon Johnson (@shannxnj) reported from Birmingham, England

    Tried to submit a complaint form to get in touch as your team have been so slow in responding. How can I get this resolved? @virginmedia

  • TimEvans1503 Tim Evans (@TimEvans1503) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia yet again last night and now this morning your service is t working despite the large amount we pay you every month. The two of us work from home - you are costing us business. If you can’t provide a decent consistency service then admit it and we’ll change provider

  • TimEvans1503 Tim Evans (@TimEvans1503) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia big thanks for your rubbish service that meant I dropped out of giving a lecture part way through - we pay a small fortune and expect decent service

  • mrmjprice MJP ☀️ (@mrmjprice) reported from Birmingham, England

    Turns out turning your @virginmedia Hub 4 off and on again resets the 2.4GHz network name.

    @virginmedia day 3 of the WiFi going down.

  • GaoMatti Matti.H.Gao (@GaoMatti) reported

    @virginmedia So you are basically saying that being scammed is customer’s fault and leaving the contract deserves the charges? The scam call started with my recent purchase activity within the network… what a surprise if this is not done by someone linked inside your team

  • PhillipsCheron Cheron Phillips (@PhillipsCheron) reported

    Well that has to be the rudest customer service call, I have EVER received @virginmedia . Not a chance I will be changing my mind now that I have cancelled my account with you. Remember you called me wanting me to stay

  • gaznolan Gary Nolan (@gaznolan) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @beardedian @virginmedia @O2 Set up fee and possibly extra for the service you'll have before the next DD comes out?

  • PhillipsCheron Cheron Phillips (@PhillipsCheron) reported

    @virginmedia One, I was called and two I have tried for a long time to reduce my service but I wasn't able to. I was with virgin mobile and media for over 20 years. The service has become worse and worse. Glad I will leaving to be honest. I've had enough
