  • 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 😉

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

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

  • 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!

  • 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

  • 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...

  • 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

  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia Yes when talking about the quality of customer service I have received from @virginmedia in the past week.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia I have resolved it now but I’m tired of having to fight to get a good service. I had to threaten to report it to Watchdog before getting through to someone who could help.

  • 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 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.

  • 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

  • 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!

  • 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

  • KingMarvz29 ZeroDarkThirty🤫 (@KingMarvz29) reported

    @virginmedia I've been disrespected by one of your colleagues, trying to sort this issue out but you just want me to pay the bill when the bill is wrong can someone with common sense get in contact with me and help me solve my issue

  • AlexLewis93 Allie (@AlexLewis93) reported

    I’d honestly have an easier time watching The Morning Show on my phone using 4G than trying to watch it using @virginmedia at this point. Useless service sometimes.

  • JezTodd Jez Todd (@JezTodd) reported

    @virginmedia @JezTod Yeah just email and just not connecting. Had earlier which have now disappeared and box says last updated Friday. Am reading on your timeline others also having issues

  • Matt_2164 Matt⚒️ (@Matt_2164) reported

    @fdkin1 @NepentheZ I’m using the virgin media box as the router, and the cable is the same one I’ve used for so long, never had any issues like this on any game

  • skatinggirl1 julie atkinson #ForeverEuropean #Rejoin💙 #FBPA (@skatinggirl1) reported

    @virginmedia It is impossible to watch anything on the TV without the signal dropping out several times over the course of a film etc, making it unwatchable.

  • AvaSantina Ava-Santina (@AvaSantina) reported

    @virginmedia link not working

  • Woodij_ Woody I.J (@Woodij_) reported

    @virginmedia Oh right on cue. A useless irrelevant scripted response 🥴 no issues. its been on going for months and still never been sorted and just get the same ****** scripted responses. Glad you have also missed out the point of paying the same for 5x less speed as a new customer though 👍

  • melissamckeee melissa (@melissamckeee) reported

    @virginmedia Can someone please explain to me why I can't downgrade to a TV/Broadband package without losing half the channels yet still somehow paying more than a new customer?! Going in complete circles with your cal centre staff trying to upsell me on stuff I don't want/need!

  • CharlesGreig CharlesGreig (@CharlesGreig) reported

    Hi @vmbusiness - how many times I’d it acceptable for a vm business connection to go down and require a router to be rebooted before it works again? I have a site going down ~1x a week and it’s just madness when my home VM connection is miles more reliable.

  • psychof0x Chris Fox (@psychof0x) reported

    @virginmedia It’s been months and they never get in touch, it’s been back and forth with no progress. Please. Just get my internet connected.
