@virginmedia We just purchased a film from the media store and it won’t play - just is stuck at 0 minutes 😡 we’ve restarted our box but always have problems like this with catch up especially… not ideal when we’ve paid money to rent a film! Can you help at all?

Another day of bad experience with @virginmedia broadband service in RG6 area. Buffering on streaming service, no video calls possible on Skype and WhatsApp. Seriously thinking of switching to @bt_uk

@virginmedia Nope. There’s “nothing wrong” with the broadband according to the status page. Never is. It’s always the hub supposedly downloading updates. 10 weeks of this now, getting a bit bored of the lack of service TBH. This needs to be escalated.

@virginmedia my broadband is running at 10mbps (supposed to be 200). The app has done a "scan" and it says there is a network error and check back in 24 hours. Problem is, it's still slow three days later and there appears to be no more help on offer. Now what?

@virginmedia Yep. Wired isn’t working either. I have no broadband, no WiFi, no service. Been like this since Saturday and intermittent since Jan/Feb.

‘ere, @VirginMedia, it’s been a full month now of totally unreliable service at my house; 5 engineers later, with the last call to 0345 454 111 on Friday saying you KNOW there’s a problem and it WILL be fixed in 24 hours. I called bullshit. I was right. Sort this out!!!

@virginmedia Thanks. Done that. Multiple times. And over the last 6 months. And when I was an ntl: customer. And CableTel before that. 27 years of 56k > 350Mb and now it’s totally doing my head in. Unable to work from home properly. Boss won’t be happy!

@virginmedia It's always the same response. No service impacting issues reported. However, the service is pretty bad. Wondering if @virginmedia network is capable of handling traffic or deliberately doing throttling. @Ofcom

@virginmedia The fact you have even done it without telling anyone is a shocking customer service move,especially in this day and age where a lot of people are working from home. Absolutely disgusting service I don't care how long it will take, I need to know of you plan to take it down so

@virginmedia Thanks. Engineer showed up, plugged in a new Hub 3, “fixed” my BB & WiFi and, 3 hours later, it’s still not working. Can I 1) file a complaint and 2) get a guarantee that this will be fixed for once and for all.

@Firesnapper999 @virginmedia It’s really frustrating; the third technician was brilliant, replaced everything almost like a new install and it worked great for just over a week. Now the status site says everything is good whilst a call to support says it isn’t. #Grrr

@virginmedia Your guys on the phone line refused to arrange an engineer last week. When I was put through to your customer retention team, he said there was a system update on his end and he would call me back. Never did. Quite pathetic service really if you ask me. Shocking

@bazza141 @virginhelp @virginmedia Join the club. I spent over 1hr 30 mins trying to get a issue resolved . I kept getting through to their over-seas call centres . It took almost 20 call re-tries to get through to a young lady over in Newcastle 😳😞. It's rediculous that they got call centres in 17 countries.

Virgin Media awful customer service. @virginmedia @richardbranson Today virgin media were HAPPY for 2 of their customer service agents to lie to me so I would not cancel and accrue extra charges! These 2 agents blantly lied but there was no consequence of them lying. AWFUL 😩

@virginmedia Apparently it was never booked, despite the online help saying due to unavoidable circumstances the visit couldn't happen, both cannot be true, so someone lied to me

@virginmedia This is what really irritates me. I've been using your services for three years, but every single time I've had problems with WiFi I've been told to refer to forums, or told that I need to pay for pods. I can't understand why I stayed with you.
