  • Rochdale_Cowboy Rochdale Cowboy (@Rochdale_Cowboy) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @UxbridgeLord @marxistniklas @Jim27371416 @DansTweeterings @jeremycorbyn @virginmedia There'll be nothing stopping you from buying it in the future. Not sure what your issue is with a policy that gives other people something you don't want, and which doesn't cost you anything.

  • dionne_angus Dionne Angus (@dionne_angus) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia just love paying for services which I'm not getting! Seriously sort it out or I will be going elsewhere. No tv, no internet your service is an absolute joke!

  • roballan07 Rob Allan (@roballan07) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia It was a terrible experience. 3 different people over a period of 1 hour 20 minutes. I had to explain the situation 3 times. You need to review your Customer Services approach as today it appears broken.

  • flyingjok John Neilson (@flyingjok) reported from Camberley, England

    @dgrutsch @virginmedia @SkyMediaUK @virginmedia has lost direction and customer focus IMO. After trying to tell me there was no fault in my area, before agreeing for an engineer to visit and check system (multiple faults) it proposed sending a pack of cables for me to try and fix myself. Err I don’t think so!

  • gb20man Grant Baartman (@gb20man) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia Really need to consider my options and look at other service providers - ongoing intermittent service for a week now and keep getting fobbed off by you CSA's - I think you may want to consider reviewing your customer services. #badcustomerservice #virginmedia

  • markblunden MarkBlunden (@markblunden) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia you’re broadband has gone from great to very unreliable. It seems to drop out regularly now. Paying a lot for your service sort it out!!

  • danarnie Danny Daly-Arnett (@danarnie) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia I ring and get hung up on after being on hold for 6 minutes. I just want what I was offered on Friday. I am not very happy with the customer service I am receiving at the moment and will just walk away. I have been a customer for 10 years and get no perks just bigger bills

  • gb20man Grant Baartman (@gb20man) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia Service outage AGAIN, this is now starting to become ridiculous... when will I start getting a reliable service!!!! This is not what I pay for @virginmedia

  • Noice113 Noice1 (@Noice113) reported from Finchampstead, England

    @virginmedia I am trying to cancel and on three occasions have asked for help my bills have gone up by 45% no explanation shame on you

  • mattrobertsCFC Matt Roberts (@mattrobertsCFC) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia Thanks @virginmedia Definitely not broadband on, @amazonprimesport need to sort out their network.

  • debi_feltimo Debi Brown (@debi_feltimo) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia Cannot access my account online, forgotten my security question so cannot call, it’s my elderly dads account I set up for him. He moved today,none of your staff will help me as I don’t have the answer. He has now moved, has no contact to outside world, please help!

  • debi_feltimo Debi Brown (@debi_feltimo) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia Transfer, he moved today so is really panicking that he cannot contact anyone. I can’t even check if the service will be available in his new home

  • donnataylor7 Donna Webster (@donnataylor7) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia I didn’t receive my new contract on April, was not told of 6 month discount price shot up and I had to fight to get my billing date changed. Overall not a good service 😡. Took me over 30 mins on telephone to try and resolve

  • tw1tterlawsey Martin law (@tw1tterlawsey) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Was not anticipating having to leave when i called in, was unhappy you increased my monthly charge and had not been advised. Was told you could do this and there was nothing you could do to rectify the overcharge. Been a loyal customer for 8 years and got treated this way

  • woodsa164 Alex George (@woodsa164) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia Not great, it never is really.

  • tw1tterlawsey Martin law (@tw1tterlawsey) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia , have been a customer for many years, my recent experience of your customer service was appalling and no empathy shown or value for my custom. I said your service makes want to leave, I was told that’s my choice, so leaving

  • gb20man Grant Baartman (@gb20man) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia Proposed resolution time is 16h00 - so service has been out since 10h30 and I work from home...

  • danarnie Danny Daly-Arnett (@danarnie) reported from Bracknell, England

    @laaqpr @virginmedia The new one is. “It’s all gone through” Then never receive an email and still paid what you are paying with the “system” saying I never called

  • CorneliusEvans Chris Evans (@CorneliusEvans) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia Netflix is not working with our broadband service you might want to looking in to this as all other streaming service work fine. P.s I’m VM service tech 😉

  • gb20man Grant Baartman (@gb20man) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia Not impressed, area service is restored but my service is still down. Engineer booked for Tuesday - do you really call this service!!!! I seem to have ongoing issues with Virgin Media - seriously considering changing my provider.

  • lucidcstowers Lucid Computer Solutions (@lucidcstowers) reported

    @virginmedia I thought it was strange as well - no we've not complained at all. Customer doesn't want to complain, just wants 1Gbps Interent! Yes, we tried a reset of the hub and used different Ethernet cables as well.

  • lucidcstowers Lucid Computer Solutions (@lucidcstowers) reported

    @virginmedia Sorry I don't think going on forums will help with this, customer could really do with some Virgin Technical Support. Can you DM me so I can provide you with their details please?

  • Fishing4Cheese Cheese Fisher (@Fishing4Cheese) reported

    @virginmedia I'm not begging a company that don't give a **** about a LONG time customer. You don't want me as a customer. I'm off.

  • Tone7_7xx Toni strotten (@Tone7_7xx) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, it's not the first time the line has been cut. Also, this is the problem it's always me having to chase it up.

  • missradhikaj Radhika Jesani (@missradhikaj) reported

    @virginmedia Yup and have been having them come out since October with no resolution still!

  • cYnborg [xR]yan (@cYnborg) reported

    @virginmedia connection has been down all afternoon in Woodingdean, Brighton. Any info on this?

  • roodolpha2 PLAGUE || roodolpha (@roodolpha2) reported

    @virginmedia I rebooted the hub yesterday yes, the network has all of its own admin settings and not allowed to touch them due to my rent conditions. Apologies this seems q waste of time as I can't do anything

  • peachwatson 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🌈 peach 🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿😷✊🏿BLM✊🏾 (@peachwatson) reported

    Hey @virginmedia - can someone please get in touch? I’m sick of trying to get a hold of you all the time just to get someone to come out and fix the mistake that one of your engineers made by drilling a screw through the WiFi cable....

  • Nellworth Nelly (@Nellworth) reported

    @virginmedia I wasn’t given an installation date I was given no information by the person I spoke to yesterday I was told it was just a case of plugging in the router and I would have wifi this evening. I’ve spent over three hours trying to contact customer care!!!

  • tamzo21 Tamzin Halpin (@tamzo21) reported

    @skytv Case number: 1652536655. How and when should we expect a response to this issue from 12th March? We are a few days away from joining @virginmedia due to not being able to complete simple work tasks daily!! 🤯😭
