  • 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?

  • philip_e_davies Philip E Davies (@philip_e_davies) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia A fuse had tripped out on Friday - literally took engineer a few seconds to fix it

  • 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

  • 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?

  • 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

  • c_s_skinner ©️🅰️®️🅾️ Lℹ️N📧 (@c_s_skinner) reported from Fleet, England

  • 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!!!

  • 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!

  • boffbowsh Paul Bowsher (@boffbowsh) reported from Wokingham, England

    Virgin Media down again today. Getting increasingly tempted by FTTPoD.

  • bmm1979 Becky (@bmm1979) reported from Reading, England

  • philip_e_davies Philip E Davies (@philip_e_davies) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia Came back on Sunday morning, obvs pleased it was fixed but a 14 hour outage this weekend following a 46 hour outage last weekend, service used to be so good but seems to be very unreliable at the moment

  • philip_e_davies Philip E Davies (@philip_e_davies) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia Down again! Your service is a shambles at the moment

    @virginmedia do you know how much longer the internet will be down in OX10 8 ??

  • 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.

  • chantelle_ukccf Chantelle Newton (@chantelle_ukccf) reported from Farnborough, England

    @virginmedia I have a support query which I have submitted via the Virgin Media app and I have tried calling but I’m getting no where. Can you provide a contact channel that will actually get me the support I need?

  • Wordywithbirdy Rachael Bell (@Wordywithbirdy) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmobile @virginmedia what on earth is going on with this service we pay over £150 a month a service that is appalling I have no service on mobile and my virgin internet is like dial up. Please explain why ur service is so rubbish and why I can’t use my mobile?

  • robgonzogould rob gould (@robgonzogould) reported

    @virginmedia As I already said I have used the app and it said it was ok, but the connection in the kitchen ( where my wife works from) is poor and intermittent, this is why I need a booster ( which I’m not paying for)

  • crites46 Rick Crichton (@crites46) reported

    @virginmedia I have to speak to my wife as she has those details, but to be honest we are losing the will to live over this issue

  • gauravsohoni ⒼⒶⓊⓇⒶⓋ (@gauravsohoni) reported

    @virginmedia I have been waiting for a cable pull for 2 weeks and noone turned up today on appt. This is simply unacceptable. No BB for over 2 weeks. Hours on call waiting, no team has any clue. Abysmal customer service.

  • markdale19 Mark Dale (@markdale19) reported

    @virginmedia WiFi hasn't been working since 28th Nov, phoned (waited over an hour) on 29th and told issue was "fixed". Tried messaging via App and still here we are on 2nd Dec with no WiFi.

  • cannontrodder Neil Trodden (@cannontrodder) reported

    @virginmedia I've been waiting 4 hours for a reply from that sms service. Are you call centres open or not? Can you give me a number to ring?

  • Amdramband There is a lad that never goes out (@Amdramband) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks, I will call them again in the hope they don't hang up on me this time. Wish me luck.

  • ZacandHorse Justin (@ZacandHorse) reported

    @h_rbond @Virgin @virginmedia Ditto. Anyone who relies on broadband or mobile for work or personal life, thats everyone, do not go to VM. The service and CS is the most appalling I’ve ever experienced. Its scandalous VM can get away with it. You are a communications company that can’t communicate.

  • uk_spotter ✈️UK_Spotter ✈️ (@uk_spotter) reported

    Yet again appalling service from @virginmedia who are happy to take your money but seemingly can’t cancel a bill that you don’t owe once you have left and then hang up on you - I would never recommend them to anyone #joinskytv #sky

  • NoryTownsend Laura Townsend (@NoryTownsend) reported

    @virginmedia We just want two new TiVo boxes. The ones we have are 4 years old and keep freezing or not working all together. Customer services ran a test on 20.11 and confirmed new boxes would be sent within a day. It's now two weeks later and turns out they weren't even ordered
