    @virginmedia I have spoken to your CS team about raising a complaint and have been told that the complaints procedure is for existing customers. As I am yet to go live, I am not considered a customer and therefore have no where to go.

    @virginmedia How about just provide me a link to download the less than 10mb of pdf? Admin fee to provide a link or email a customer of over 3years? What have you offered me in return for the many times of INTERRUPTED service when I’ve had to turn to my mobile hotspot?

    @virginmedia i get it. Captalist country and therefore a fallacy to beleive we dont need you. You social media support responders are in jobs etc But really, VM broadband is a joke. Bring back telewest and the more personal service of old. #virginmediadown again

    Having real problems with our broadband dropping out regularly @virginmedia. Any known issues in the SS8 area?

    @virginmedia Hi VM, I ordered a replacement remote control for my TIVO box. Just realised that was a couple of months ago but it never came. When trying online again it says as I’ve had one within six months I can’t order another. Please check that the first was ever sent, thanks

  • GoonerGrizzly
    grizzly_gooner (@GoonerGrizzly) reported from Thundersley, England

    @virginmedia This seems to be the standard message coming from Virgin Media. “Computer says no”. If you can’t see the issue with this then you (Virgin Media) are the problem. I’m inclined to contact the ombudsman as you have sold me a service which you blatantly cannot provide or install.

    Virgin media users any issues 😣?

  • TheSugg
    David Sugg (@TheSugg) reported from Gravesend, England

    @lobsterpants66 @virginmedia Yep. Engineer never turned up but logged it as he turned up and couldn’t get a reply. Lying b’stard.

  • maharrison
    Mark Harrison (@maharrison) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @virginmedia Ok so I need to arrange another visit I won’t be contacted? Can you see how bad this looks? Now I’ll be in London I need to arrange someone to be there to let an engineer in unless there is a smaller window

    Problems with @virginmedia continue. Now the wifi is down and no streaming tonight! #shouldnothaveleftsky #FirstWorldProblems

    @virginmedia broadband down again in Southend. Had to pay for a BT WiFi day pass so my wife can continue working from home.

    Ian Collier (@_iancollier) reported from Gravesend, England

    Hey @virginmedia why does it take sooooo long to call you guys? Spent 45 mins on hold waiting to be transferred to department who can help me with my phone line problem. I gave up. Help!

  • Cod49ers
    Marc Tobin (@Cod49ers) reported from Grays, England

    @financialombuds can I get out of my @virginmedia contract with no costs due to their complete failure to provide the service I pay for and refuse to deal with my issues

  • VenusEnvi
    VenusEnvi (@VenusEnvi) reported from Grays, England

    @virginmedia what’s the point of asking me to text when I’m ready to set up the new hub if your going to deactivate the old one before I’m ready!! Good job I have unlimited data on my mobile network!!

  • maharrison
    Mark Harrison (@maharrison) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @virginmedia I have continually tried to call, your wait times are really unacceptable, anyway I have also opted for the text service, however no text received. I am losing faith I’ve been waiting since August for some kind of contact from you. Any other options?

  • rrrussboy
    Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia I’ve already raised a complaint. I spoke to someone in the Stage 2 complaints team who told me it’s being dealt with and, as already mentioned, a manager would call me back at 4.30 which didn’t happen. Can someone please sort this out?

  • wonky1961
    Penny Rolfe nee Acres (@wonky1961) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @MartinSLewis Virgin Media wifi been unstable since June 2020. Virgin Media never resolved the problem caused me to lose hundreds of £'s. Made me lose my PIP. Virgin made me pay double because they kept charging me twice most months. They've made me lose half my PC Guarantee

    @virginmedia time now 11:14pm and certain channels still aren’t working, things said they have recorded when they haven’t, search function also still not working code c133. I think a refund is due to a lot of customers 👎🏻👎🏻#virginmediadown

  • argyledavros
    Dave Warrilow (@argyledavros) reported

    Massive problems with @virginmedia in #Southend. Broadband hasn't been working properly for over a week. Service checker keeps changing excuse, so you can't book and engineer. Tried calling on hold for half an hour then cut off. Shocking service.

  • SunyaSutti

    Why have @virginmedia cut off my broadband three days BEFORE I was supposed to cancel their shity service?

    @virginmedia hi trying to renew my package, but having difficulty getting in touch with someone to get a deal sorted ? can anyone help with this

  • MarionBrowne42
    Marion Browne (@MarionBrowne42) reported

    @keithapearson @virginmedia @MartinSLewis I think Yodel can challenge VM. They left a package at my neighbour no2, due to the layout of the close, no2 is nowhere near no3 and the photo of proof is also not no2 unless you are in the next close 🤬 An hour on a chat to discover that the driver is an idiot.

  • geofn3751
    Geoff Naylor (@geofn3751) reported

    @virginmedia intermittent broadband service in our area for the past week, told it will take another week to fix. Want to change service provider but told must pay a penalty for early termination (for a service they are unable to provide?). Great customer service.

  • WillVallely
    Wilson (@WillVallely) reported

    @virginmedia 90 minutes on the phone today no resolution. spoke to a manager who asked me to send my contract to them (why they didn’t have it I don’t know). The promise of a call back today to resolve, still not happened. Absolute waste of time .

  • JohnHawkes2001
    John Hawkes (@JohnHawkes2001) reported

    @Starlink I switched to Starlink and I absolutely love it. The performance has been incredible compared to the UK ISPs I’ve used. I was with Virgin Media, and Starlink beats it hands down for gaming and streaming. The connection is fast, reliable, and far more consistent than I expected from a satellite service. Another big advantage is that I no longer have to deal with the rip-off pricing and policies of many UK ISPs. And if you’ve ever tried leaving Virgin Media, you’ll know exactly what I mean, it can be an absolute nightmare. With Starlink, the whole experience feels much more straightforward and customer-friendly.

    @virginmedia How do I cancel my account? 🤔 So tired of sitting on a never answered 0345 phone number to talk to a representative. Very bad service.
