    @virginmedia what the actual **** is wrong with you people if it was phone bill you guys would have deducted all long time ago but y’all don’t want me to make calls and y’all decided not to warn us either. I swear to God I’m not paying my bill this month periodt

  • LAURABELLE72 Laura Elliott (@LAURABELLE72) reported from Thundersley, England

    Have some sense @virginmedia if your mobile phone systems are having issues why wait until the caller has been on hold for over 15 minutes to play the recorded message that says there's nothing you can do about it #********* #CustomerService

  • Pegaso650 Jon Lovett (@Pegaso650) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia 2nd complaint made via your website as still no contact from the resolution team!

  • DebzGlover Debz Glover😜 (@DebzGlover) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia Hi, no service issues in my area according to your website

  • Pegaso650 Jon Lovett (@Pegaso650) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia No advice, no contact = appalling service. This is the problem!

  • MalcolmLouth Mac (@MalcolmLouth) reported from Grays, England

    @virginmedia WiFi signal is awful. Called you 100 times. Keep getting same run around. Will find someone who can deliver.

  • 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.

  • sharonblaxland Sharon (@sharonblaxland) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia has gone down, no internet and only a few obscure tv channels.... that I’m watching, so I can keep watching telly 😳

  • Pegaso650 Jon Lovett (@Pegaso650) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia I’ve going through this process since 20th March! I’m unable to talk on the phone easily due to a brain injury. I’m still waiting for a response from the resolution team!!

  • MalcolmLouth Mac (@MalcolmLouth) reported from Grays, England

    @virginmedia My approach is simply to contact my service provider who I pay a lot of money to and ask them to sort it. That hasn’t worked.

  • 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.

  • NormanStiff Namron #FBPE (@NormanStiff) reported from Grays, England

    @virginmedia HI, your on-demand service is not really on- demand, I tried to watch Sundays Line of Duty today it is not on demand unless I pay another service, why is this.

  • Steve_Butler SB78 (@Steve_Butler) reported from Gravesend, England

    @virginmedia Just called customer services asking for some cable so I can move a TiVo box - completely unhelpful & didn't understand what I wanted Just kept telling me £99 for an engineer

  • 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.

  • Pegaso650 Jon Lovett (@Pegaso650) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia Another week has passed, still no contact from your unbelievably awful resolution team!

  • Pegaso650 Jon Lovett (@Pegaso650) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia This has been ongoing for over a month now. Pixelated on BBC2, E4, Channel 5 etc. I’m entirely feed up with this awful service and this month my bill has increased again.

  • njfishingtackle NJ Fishing Tackle (@njfishingtackle) reported from Gravesend, England

    Virgin Media, avoid at all costs, they no longer work for the customers benefit only their own, bad company 😠😠😠😠😠

  • honoredeballsac TomF (@honoredeballsac) reported

    @virginmedia "We've received your complaint" is not entirely, or at all, accurate, then, is it?

  • pipebrush Ⓢⓚⓘⓟⓟⓨ🇺🇦 (@pipebrush) reported

    @big_copper @virginmedia Get a mesh network and then virgin is great. The hubs are awful though

  • Marc251983 Marc (@Marc251983) reported

    @Bennicut @virginmedia Ffs. Yet you need to be down 48 hours to be compensated

  • MaryNT16 Mary N-T (@MaryNT16) reported

    @virginmedia The new estimated fix time is 9:00 on 17th November. That is a long time to wait. We have been without fully functioning TV & broadband since 10th November. The service is currently intermittent which makes working from home difficult. This is unacceptable. @LutzSchueler

  • themillerseve15 themillerseve15 (@themillerseve15) reported

    @WeAreOpenreach why has your subcontractor Kelly Communications cut my Virgin media connection while installing next doors BT Openreach? Leaving a family without Internet or TV for 5 days and counting? Marketing ploy? I wouldn't dream of becoming a customer BTW.

  • AntJack81 Anthony (@AntJack81) reported

    @virginmedia Hi. It seems to be a problem with the power supply (not good when it's new!) but I've got a spare so it's fine now.

  • GlobalFunk_ John c 🎮 (@GlobalFunk_) reported

    @Siimssyy1 @virginmedia Lad this is literally what I was dealing with every game for months and for months they said nothing was wrong, they are just terrible for gaming. Changed to BT and never had an issue.

  • tulipths 🥟 (@tulipths) reported

    99 problems and virgin media takes up 90 of them.

  • adelwire graham littler (@adelwire) reported

    @virginmedia I would like to talk to a human about poor Internet. If that's too hard for a communications company, an email address with a human at the other end. No BOTS! Graham

  • iamscorchy iamscorchy (@iamscorchy) reported

    @virginmedia still having issues with router after the outage/repair has been sorted?
