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

    @virginmedia There are no faults in my area. The issue is likely to be with the router as the 2.4ghz works consistently on other devices.

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

    You make mistakes in life. Going back to @virginmedia is one of my biggest. Internet is awful, can’t sign into the media service and the customer service is nonexistent. I advise you do not do it!!!

  • Big_D_2012 Darral.s (@Big_D_2012) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @virginmedia you really have to sort your internet service out shocking!!

  • coxychris chris cox (@coxychris) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia I hope you are going to compensate people for these issues. Mines been like this for weeks so much so that I thought it was the super hub. Looks like I may leave I’m June service is awful

  • divadnoryb David A Byron (@divadnoryb) reported from Grays, England

    @virginmedia I cannot express just how disappointed I am with your service. My broadband has been dire for over a week now. Constantly dropping out, slow speeds and just not fit for purpose. First thing I’m doing is switching providers when this is all over. Never again virgin..

  • frankroe2 frank #13 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@frankroe2) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia why is so hard to get in contact with you, it’s like you don’t want to help.

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

    @virginmedia It’s been awful. The connection is sporadic at best.

  • mrs_harket BeKind_Charlatan🌱 (@mrs_harket) reported from Rayleigh, England

  • Mark49664171 Mark (@Mark49664171) reported

    @virginmedia Telephone recording when I did phone stated a fault that would be fixed by 10am. This message has been the same for weeks! VM just seem to be deflecting and just giving generic responses without ever fixing the issue.

  • powna11 Mark Pownall (@powna11) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve tried calling was on hold for over 2hrs final got through they said I would be contacted about a service engineer to come round.. still not heard anything. Then called again was on hold for 50mins oh we’ve sent a new signal out should work in 3 hrs.. still don’t work

  • lyndseyclacker lyndsey clarke (@lyndseyclacker) reported

    @virginmedia please help!!We ordered our bundle a week ago but received no contract and no further information. We are moving in 11 days and need our broadband set up ASAP! I have spent over 6 hours over the last 3 days in your online chat ‘waiting to get through’ with no success

  • lukehooverhead Luke Hooverhead (@lukehooverhead) reported

    @AbbeyPiacentini @virginmedia @virginmedia your customer service for existing customers is terrible. I’ve been trying to get hold of you to downgrade my tv package as I’m paying way over the odds. I can’t afford it, yet you still keep taking my money.. I can’t get hold of anyone on the website, or phone

  • ScottWLFord Scott W L Ford (@ScottWLFord) reported

    @virginmedia - as a long and loyal customer I would like to thank you for sending out an technican to my home in Hartlepool the very next day 8 am to 12.00 pm. So patience, so understanding and quick at his job getting all sorted and left in 20 minutes.

  • lkloop Louise 💆‍♀️ (@lkloop) reported

    @monkeydogify @virginmedia is their handle. Going by the number of customer apologies they’re making on here they really are rather poor!!

  • JasonLanns Jason (lanzi) (@JasonLanns) reported

    @curtiscrockett @RichieZuLuBatch @virginmedia I’m not either but if they don’t fix my issues I’m sure it’s breach of contract?

  • ChloeWhytee Chloe⚪️ (@ChloeWhytee) reported from Shoreham-by-Sea, England

    @virginmedia hi, I’ve tried to contact via chat as I can’t call and I wait about an hour then give up, is there anyway someone can help me on here?

  • jools2009 Julie M 😇😹😷🌈 (@jools2009) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia I’m through to someone now. But we’re definitely cancelling. The service on this matter has been severely lacking since set up in September and to be frank we can get him a better package with Sky.

  • Danny_izanagi DANNY IZANAGI (@Danny_izanagi) reported

    The worst ever network @virginmedia. Almost 2 months of trying to get through to someone to cancel my services. 2 months! Abhorrent is an understatement
