  • WUFC2005 Football 4 All (@WUFC2005) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia nothing but issues. 2G & 5G always stops working. Updates happens when ever it feels like. And every time I contact Virgin, it's like talking to a 6 year old.

  • marcsnappy Marc Corn (@marcsnappy) reported from Basildon, England

    @Shadow_Official @virginmedia This issue I found happened more on wifi, I had to put in a secondary switch and run everything via Ethernet.

  • engineer59a Richard S (@engineer59a) reported from Corringham, England

    Virgin media - your automated service has a flaw, it just repeats the same message, ‘ no faults found’, when there is a fault, like my internet is giving 2Mb download right now

  • karengale7 Karen Gale (@karengale7) reported from Corringham, England

    @virginmedia I'm really fed up I've waited 45 minutes to speak to you to cancel my services after yet another price increase to be told I've got another 30 minutes to speak to another team I'll go sky for a cheaper deal now

  • KudaLudaLegend1 Kuda Madzikanda (@KudaLudaLegend1) reported from Gravesend, England

    Seriously getting towards 24hr broadband outage..Can someone tell me if I can cancel my contract as technically @virginmedia have not met their contractual obligation🤔

  • engineer59a Richard S (@engineer59a) reported from Corringham, England

    @virginmedia WHAT AN AWFUL SERVICE YOU ARE PROVIDING! Internet down over 1 hour, your automated service hangs up when saying it’s going to test my line and when I ring and go to ‘ want to leAve’ that’s a 10 min+ hang on phone Sort yourselves out Virgin Media😡

  • claire_m_willia Claire Williams (@claire_m_willia) reported from Gravesend, England

    @virginmedia your customer service is an absolute joke won't ever be using you again . Worst customer service ever !!!!!!!!!

  • marcsnappy Marc Corn (@marcsnappy) reported from Basildon, England

    Hey @virginmedia you better offer me a better deal tomorrow or else I will be leaving. New customers are always treated better than existing. I know from experience with you guys that this never changes.

  • RyanTCB Ryan (@RyanTCB) reported from Basildon, England

    I hate phoning virgin media at weekends and getting the Indian support centre 🤬

  • LawroGardiner Lawrence Gardiner ➡️ (@LawroGardiner) reported from Basildon, England

    @Dianemiddleto @tankhead666 @virginmedia Thanks. I got the text hours after talking to Virgin Media on the phone to activate my hub after a house move. Never had it before. Something not right in their call centres.

  • Damboye Damilola Adeboye (@Damboye) reported from Tilbury, England

    Virgin media decided to add £3 to the bill But the broadband service’s poor ...@richardbranson ::: Your company or franchise , can do better

  • engineer59a Richard S (@engineer59a) reported from Corringham, England

    @virginmedia 3 days of warm weather and your network goes to pot!😔😡 3 rd day in a row no internet intermittently

  • engineer59a Richard S (@engineer59a) reported from Corringham, England

    @virginmedia 15 minutes wasted waiting on the phone till 9PM For the most awful internet service, 6 days now of truly awful service

  • tommyewing84 Tom (@tommyewing84) reported from Gravesend, England

    @virginmedia our wifi drips out anything between 4 and 8 times a day. The app always says there are no issues. Getting pretty sick of it now. Looks like going back to @SkyUK is the only way.

  • karl_holden Karl Holden (@karl_holden) reported from Gravesend, England

    @virginmedia the service is deteriorating. Time to review your performance and reveal the source of your problems before your customer base starts to become even more disenchanted.

  • engineer59a Richard S (@engineer59a) reported from Corringham, England

    @virginmedia So only total loss of service allows me compensation,just 7 days of really awful service including customer services, when asked about compensation and I query the criteria,throw a ‘sorry I can’t hear you’... Now that’s really awful customer service 😡

  • beebachu92 Becky Doull (@beebachu92) reported

    @virginmedia My mum had an engineer booked for last Friday, and found out on Thursday it wasn’t booked in although she had a text confirming it. She had another booked for today and received a text to tell her it was cancelled because the problem was sorted…which it is not!

  • JamieDK Jimmy D (@JamieDK) reported

    @virginmedia Phone is part of the contract with Virgin. Quite simply I need to receive my Proof of Purchase, this must also include the date I reported the incident (16/10/22) and the date the phone/SIM was blocked (also 16/10/22). The six versions I've received so far are all incorrect.

  • Michell24298778 Michelle (@Michell24298778) reported

    @virginmedia Internet connection is terrible. Had someone out and it's worse and he said he would call back to check and never did. Cuts out all the time and I mean all the time it on, off, on, off. The website is also not working to check and report problems.

  • GNious G (@GNious) reported

    @Xergal @virginmedia Have they given you the, "your wi-fi might just be bad" suggestion yet?

  • Sandwich247 Sandwich247 (@Sandwich247) reported

    heya @virginmedia I tried calling but didn't get through to anyone, the automated system just advises that there is no fault If I set my DNS server to google or cloudflare the issue goes away why can't I access this website going through your DNS?

  • seanmcd07 Sean McDougall (@seanmcd07) reported

    @virginmedia As I said, no I’m not going over my complaint(s) again. I’m sure you appreciate that I’ve already told the story to 10 or 11 different agents before, and still not spoke to who I need to about it. So either get me a call or I’m cancelling my direct debit.

  • laurabazile Laura Bazile (@laurabazile) reported

    @virginmedia Looks like communications across the teams is shambolic. Tech support team vs customer service team = true madness 😡 These pre written messages speak volumes.

  • oilyoils stanley (@oilyoils) reported

    @virginmedia please advise, if I can’t get some clarity on this soon I need to cancel

  • MartinC66419729 Martin Clarke (@MartinC66419729) reported

    @virginmedia I have done that and still no joy what's going on 38 hours with no TV service

  • GrahamLawton Graham Lawton (@GrahamLawton) reported

    @virginmedia I will. It is never sorted, everyone seems to be a half wit
