  • kirsten_willis Kirsten Willis BEM (@kirsten_willis) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia what is so difficult about customer service these days? Spent the last 4 days going through the repetitive process of checking out WiFi connection, eventually got a number to call TL get cut off after a 30 min wait! Not impressed!

  • SpaWellbeing Spa Wellbeing (@SpaWellbeing) reported from Wokingham, England

    What’s wrong with Virgin Media? Unable to access my emails for several days now. Virgin say they’re working on it but the problem’s still not sorted. Is anyone else suffering this acute inconvenience?

  • samtomkins samtomkins (@samtomkins) reported from Henley-on-Thames, England

    @virginmedia how do I speak to someone about my mobile phone. I haven’t been able to swap my sim as my sim port is broken, so today you have cut me off, despite me still paying bills!!!

    Internet is down... @virginmedia what’s going on 😓

  • Rochdale_Cowboy Craig (@Rochdale_Cowboy) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia All fine now - but TBH we're probably going to cancel. Our contract is up its going up from £70 to £85/month. To sign a new deal is a £82. Your offer to new customers is £45. I can't be bothered with this hassle every few months so am looking at sky. Thanks for checking though 👍

  • chopper2fit ruthless (@chopper2fit) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia I would never ever recommend your broadband service to anyone !! Constant issues! Came back to you from sky as was promised a much better service !! Guess what it’s worse than ever

  • HollySquirrel Kim Marie Pike (@HollySquirrel) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia We need this sorting, as there are 3 of us working from home, involving video meetings. How do we get in touch with you to sort our services out? Our TIVo box is also slow to respond and on-demand isn’t working, due to internet problems. Help. Now. Please.

  • inmilla68 Inmita Medina (@inmilla68) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia Hi there. Never got my 5 GB SIM card as stated in my contract. Been waiting for over a month and never got it! Impossible to get through customer services to speak to a human...

  • HollySquirrel Kim Marie Pike (@HollySquirrel) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia My husband has been unable to contact anyone at customer service. It seems our router has an intermittent fault. Please advise ASAP. My husband is a key worker (electricity generation), having a stable internet connection, is essential. 2/2

  • inmilla68 Inmita Medina (@inmilla68) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia 1hour waiting the first time and disconnected. This is the second time, still on the phone and waiting 55min. It is pretty much the whole day wasted trying to talk to customer services. Can you please help?

  • drmccracken255 David McCracken (@drmccracken255) reported

    @virginmedia No better, worse. Still no response from you. I’m told technicians aren’t available because the coverage is so bad across the board

  • Clareda66980797 Clare davies (@Clareda66980797) reported

    @virginmedia twice you have put the phone down on me today. All I am trying to get is a phone number employee services. This is so urgent for me and so easy for you yet communication is so poor.

  • RobGrillo Rob Grillo (@RobGrillo) reported

    @virginmedia Who would have thought that changing the name of the account holder could be so difficult. Getting any customer service rep to understand is impossible. Some even cut off the line because they don't know what to do. Shocking. @VirginMediaCorp

  • DakaraSpawnBlk Dakara_Spawn_Blk (@DakaraSpawnBlk) reported

    @virginmedia When devices are connected the Internet Service that comes through the router is sporadic. Device's are not the issue here, it's the speeds promised as per the contractual agreement. I pay Virgin I get broadband with specified speeds. Can you just tell us what's wrong?

  • olliejones13 ollie (@olliejones13) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve spent 10 hours on the phone to virgin in a week trying to get answers and nobody is ever able to help

  • Nix5020 Nix502 (@Nix5020) reported

    @virginmedia To call an engineer,but it always says that, and then in a couple of hours it's working. It said that last week, when the TV was off and the whole country had an outage.

  • ClareLoc Clare Lockhart (@ClareLoc) reported

    @Virgin @VMSolutions_ @virginmedia still no reply? 11 months of no broadband/ terrible broadband. Have been calling and emailing and asking to speak to a manager with authority to get things done/ refund me/ get me the right paperwork to take to the ombudsman- no reply. Help!
