  • safdar Safdar Mustafa (@safdar) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia My WIFI is unbearable and affects my day of online meetings. I’ve done the usual troubleshooting and have your app too. Calling your support is useless and I can’t get through to a human. What do I need to do to resolve my issues? Message your CEO?

  • AmyJ1996 amy james. (@AmyJ1996) reported from Farnborough, England

    Right who has virgin media tv someone help us

  • safdar Safdar Mustafa (@safdar) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Please can you help me to terminate my contract and service with you since it’s unbearable and unprofessional when I’m having work meetings to constantly get disconnected? It’s impossible to speak to a Virgin support human too so I’m left with no choice. Please help me on this.

  • jonathansnorman Jonathan Norman (@jonathansnorman) reported from Farnborough, England

    @virginmedia I had an important online meeting at 7.30 this morning, no internet. Same problem last Thursday. Been and NTL & Virgin customer since forever but it feels like it is time to change

  • fleetsaints Steve Jones (@fleetsaints) reported from Fleet, England

    Changed from sky broadband to @virginmedia seriously didn’t think it could be worse. How wrong I was. Utterly shocking broadband. Lost count of the number of times on the last 48 hours we’ve lost service.

  • 5aman1_m Munindra Samani (@5aman1_m) reported from Wokingham, England

    Yet again issues with virgin broadband. On the phone for over 25 mins - ridiculous #virginmedia #connectivity

  • JurassicGarden Char (@JurassicGarden) reported from Didcot, England

    The worst part of Lockdown wasn't the loneliness, the boredom or the agitation. It was seeing ******* Birdseye, McCain's and Virgin Media shoving happy family lockdown vibes down your throat to advertise themselves.

  • dan_brooke Dan Brooke (@dan_brooke) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia had reached a new level of incompetence in terms of customer ‘service’. 2 months since signed up and still not installed with multiple last minute ***** ups... 🙄

  • BobBeveridge1 Bob Beveridge (@BobBeveridge1) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Yes I have explained all this before. Is there any point? My recent issue was with the pathetic final letter, now combined with the fact that your system is so poor you know nothing about this. Totally poor customer experience.

  • fleetsaints Steve Jones (@fleetsaints) reported from Fleet, England

    @virginmedia Yes. Turned it off. Unplugged everything & put it all back in and still we get intermittent issues.

  • MaxwellPerris Maxwell Perris (@MaxwellPerris) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia That you don't have enough staff to meet customer demand, apparently you don't have a complaints team and a £20 credit should solve all our problems. We never had this issue when we were with @SkyBroadband

  • timmorgan Tim Morgan (@timmorgan) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia what's the best department to get My Virgin Media support? I am a customer and it won't let me register an account using my email address although my bill is sent to the same email.

  • LisaMarieHeenan Lisa-Marie Cuthbertson (@LisaMarieHeenan) reported from Reading, England

    Hi @virginmedia can you please check service RG31 as all services are down, the online check confirms the status is down but only option is book an engineer for Tuesday, does that mean I can expect no TV or Internet until then?

  • JulianHull Julian Hull (@JulianHull) reported from Farnborough, England

    @virginmedia what’s happened to our internet?? I’m in GU14 trying to work from home. The last 2 weeks we’ve either had no internet or very very slow. Ran speed checks, used to be over 100, now it’s mostly around 6-15 and we are paying for 100

  • safdar Safdar Mustafa (@safdar) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia No I’ve heard nothing back till now I’m afraid and still get issues. Can you help?

  • jayp171 jayesh Patel (@jayp171) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia is there a problem with WiFi in the Maidenhead area?

  • ChrisRandWrites Chris Rand (@ChrisRandWrites) reported from Huntingdon, England

    @virginmedia Nothing! I just wish you'd get rid of these magic support passwords nobody has. We just have to go through the charade on the phone of typing in random wrong codes until the system gives up. That's all. Thank you.

  • suz_peggy Peggy (@suz_peggy) reported

    @virginmedia Never mind, this is all too much for me.

  • Wholehearted25 Mr_Kwacky II (@Wholehearted25) reported

    @Poles72 @virginmedia It's crappy interment service. I've done all the usual checks and switched it off for a few minutes.

  • chaswhiskey ChasW 🇺🇦 (@chaswhiskey) reported

    @virginmedia The password seems to have changed and I have been told they cannot deal with the issue without it, so I have to wait for a new one to be posted to me before anything can be fixed. I am not willing to spend more time on the phone trying to sort this out with your rubbish agents

  • flem1968 christian Fleming (@flem1968) reported

    @virginmedia It states on your service status there are issues but never had an outage this long in my 17 years being a customer

  • JohnDragonMan JohnDragonMan (@JohnDragonMan) reported

    @virginmedia why is your 3G/4G phone speeds so poor? Some places I go get a fantastic signal but no data connection. I have loads of rolled over data too. Poor show when you are punished for not using data.

  • ck19512697 c k (@ck19512697) reported

    @virginmedia is it fair that I've been trying to get through to your team for 3 months to cancel my services. I've tried telephone and WhatsApp chat both times I'm transfered or I've been ignored. Some of us work full time and do not have time to wait for hours to speak to some1

  • WesobrienO Wes O'Brien (@WesobrienO) reported

    @virginmedia my broadband is down and when I try to call 1908 is not recognised. Can you please advise?

  • SheenaSing_ Sheena (@SheenaSing_) reported

    @virginmedia I already have. Your team on the phone have no clue about the legal Ofcom guidelines. I have raised another complaint. I have chased virgin for 4 months and now will have to chase again for compensation. Wonderful service.

  • stequayle28 Ste Quayle (@stequayle28) reported

    @virginmedia We have appointment for 9th November booked in but someone to come and check the old box that not working properly.
