-
Robert Shaw (@hungoverdrawn) reported from Wainscott, England@virginmedia It's started working this morning after 24 hours down, bit strange that your website said there were no service issues anywhere 😒 I guess I'll cancel that engineer visit now.
-
Marc Tobin (@Cod49ers) reported from Grays, England@virginmedia A thousand times. On a chat all day yesterday and was promised someone would call me, no one did. To say this is the worst customer experience I have ever had would be an understatement.
-
Mark.. (@MLong94) reported from Grays, EnglandImagine my shock. Virgin media telly and internet down, AGAIN. **** *****
-
Gary Thompson (@goonergeek2000) reported from Grays, England@virginmedia right I’ve just about had enough of virgin customer services. Cancelled service on 10 December. Today find out account is live after logging in. On hold four times for over 45 minutes. Latest on hold for 1hr 19 minutes. Call gets answered then cut off! What the hell

Danny-lawrence-BEM-BCAc (@MRDannyLawrence) reported from Billericay, England@virginmedia me19 postcode broadband down please advise
-
Katie Purkiss (@KatiePurkiss) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@virginmedia I’ve sorted the issue. But now there’s no way of cancelling the engineer! Can’t get through on phone. Appointment isn’t showing on their account, so can’t cancel there. WhatsApp is useless - been waiting for an Agent to be available since about 1pm!
-
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.

lindsay wood (@Dearnormajeane) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@kelseybytheway @virginmedia Second this so ******* hard. Diagnostics dont do **** when the issue is with the hardware itself
-
Katie Purkiss (@KatiePurkiss) reported from Southend-on-Sea, EnglandHey @virginmedia Parents new 360 box not working and engineer not available to come out til the 27th!!!! Not good enough! 😔
-
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

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?
-
Lisa Philpott (@Lisa2672) reported from Rayleigh, England@Shayan86 @virginmedia It’s a disgrace - my husband works in tv too. You 100% cannot rely on VM. I am definitely changing. My bill started off at £35 and is now £45 as we had to buy boosters. Worst service ever. Skybroadband non-fibre was better than this.
-
Katie Purkiss (@KatiePurkiss) reported from Southend-on-Sea, EnglandAfter 20 years of being with @virginmedia and Telewest before that, I’ve finally decided to jump ship. Broadband has been horrendous for a couple of weeks and constant issues. 😔. #TimeforaChange

-
Rob Green Jnr (@rob_green86) reported from Thundersley, EnglandAnyone else really struggling with slow speeds over the last 10 days with @virginmedia. It's been spot on for 2 years now and then 10 days it seems something has happened. Lucky to get over 10Mb now 🙈
-
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
-
grizzly_gooner (@GoonerGrizzly) reported from Thundersley, England@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.
