I called bullshit. I was right. Sort this out!!!

-
Pete (@gonnella) reported from Woodley, England@mattlintott @NetXL_dot_com Nice 👍🏻 got gig1 from @virginmedia but the upload is awful only 50mbit. Hope it gets increased to at least 100mbit soon.
-
Paul Mackenzie Ross (@pmross) reported from Farnborough, England@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!
-
Doughnut Doney (@DoughnutDoney) reported from Benson, England@virginmedia plz stop calling me asking if I want an upgrade. Been a loyal customer for over 15 yrs and its getting annoying now. Yes my phone is due for an upgrade but only when I want it. So plz when you say Im on the 'has been contacted list' stick with that 😞
-
Mike Biscoe (@MikeBiscoe1) reported from Reading, England@GiganetUK @virginmedia 13:25. Down again…
-
DimiD (@DimiD35089880) reported from Camberley, England@virginmedia We have engineer booked for today to see what is the issue as since I upgraded never had such a bad service experience for the last 12 years with @virginmedia
-
Paul Collier (@Pablocollier) reported from Wokingham, England@virginmedia Sorry but no. If you can't monitor your own service provision why should I ?
-
Phil Stacey (@PhilStace20) reported from Maidenhead, England@virginmedia It’s more about how this can’t be dealt with online and spending a busy day trying to get to talk with someone who actually can help. #Disgraceful #expectedthis
-
Phil Stacey (@PhilStace20) reported from Maidenhead, England@virginmedia It about moving house. As Virgin is unavailable at the new residence and the move is only temporary I was told in two separate calls that I could ‘freeze’ my account and now it’s come to it it seems that I have to keep paying whilst not receiving any service or buy myself out!
-
Daniel Sherlock (@mcsherlocks) reported from Wokingham, England@virginmedia Internet down at the moment in Woking also yesterday. Checked with my neighbours also down so is system wide
-
Bowlesy (@Chateauneuf64) reported from Wokingham, England@virginmedia Broadband down again, 2nd week in a row. Had one day of service and stupidly canx Engineer due next day and hey presto back down we go again. 1 week wait for engineer, 1 day of BB, and now earliest slot for Engineer +1 week. Buyer beware. Typing whilst 50 mins holding with VM!
-
Paul Mackenzie Ross (@pmross) reported from Farnborough, England@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.

-
Cristoir Toibin (@christobinsings) reported@virginmedia happily giving new customers FREE #Netflix but happy to lose a customer of 26 years to #Sky because they won't give it to a long-standing customer who has given them thousands of pounds over 26 years. Make it make sense.
-
D (@HopeForTo) reported@virginmedia major outage and nothing on X about it
-
Samuel (@samhardiman92) reportedI have never in my adult life had to deal with a more inept bunch of incompetent people than those who work at virgin media, I wager I would get more sense from an extinct species than I would from their "customer service" department
-
Si Smith (@sjslfcforever) reported@virginmedia I’ve now been booted off the phone as your automated service is not very good and your live chat has kicked me off twice in the last half hour, I’m glad your saving money getting a bot to handle calls but maybe a human being would be better, could someone contact me.
-
Temporary Location (@TemporaryLocat1) reported@virginmedia On the virgin media app it says it would be fixed by 17.07 which was over 20 minutes ago and it’s still down, where are the updates on what the problem is and how it will be fixed?
-
Joe Makin (@joemakin86) reported@rokokoprufei @virginmedia And i have had 0 issues
-
steve homer_net (@stevehomer_net) reported@virginmedia @LDA74 In other words: our customer service doesn't exist, click a link and sort it out yourself!
-
Samet (@Samet_UK) reported@virginmedia Still no any update or result. So I am so regret to be your customer.
-
A.Brown (@_DundeePerfect_) reported@Raphas_Angel_ @virginmedia Imagine that day everyone knows you can Hot Spot your Own Phone or Buy a Data only Sim in case ever need it. I never have a second with no Internet access, but in saying this I cannot remember which year my VM didn't work. Also plenty FREE Wi-Fi places the Benefit Office suggests
-
You’re Just Listening 😀 (@ChatchoMan) reported@MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK If Virgin Media are such money grabbing filth that they don’t want to believe a grieving person that contacts them and just terminate the contract they should at least backdate it based on the death certificate. Anything other than that is disgraceful.
