    @virginmedia @VMHelpDesk Broadband down in my area, this is frustrating. Reckon it’ll be fixed by 9. No tv & Broadband during the school holidays

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

    @virginmedia so after weeks of unbelievably poor broadband and customer service there was an offer from you to resolve the situation with a web chat at 11am, with a link being provided here. No link. I’m lost for words

  • 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?

  • KatiePurkiss

    Hey @virginmedia Parents new 360 box not working and engineer not available to come out til the 27th!!!! Not good enough! 😔

  • katie_2521

    @virginmedia been struggling for days with home WiFi. Tried to contact you guys but cant find a number Please help

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

    @virginmedia You’ve now sent me the same unhelpful link about compensation 3 times. This will only compensate me if I have no service, and as I have a service (albeit 3mbps) this, as I’ve repeated several times, doesn’t help me. Another example of poor customer service

  • KatiePurkiss
    Katie Purkiss (@KatiePurkiss) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    After 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

  • 1CreativeRay
    Dr Stower and the Stock Market of Madness 🦍 (@1CreativeRay) reported from Wainscott, England

    @virginmedia Terrible service from you these last two weeks! I have spent more than 4hrs on the phone to Asian based O2, and Virgin call centres who never help or process things. Also Capita in South Africa… Why do you use foreign call centres if they cannot do the job!!

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

    @virginmedia I raised the complaint on 14/7 and I’ve heard nothing

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

    @virginmedia Actually that’s wrong, I received an email to advise that the complaint had been resolved and had to respond saying it hasn’t. What hope is there when you can’t even get a complaint right?

  • RERomain
    Rachel Romain (@RERomain) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @virginmedia It has been almost 30 years since he was a new customer... 🙃

  • nigelrumsey

    @virginmedia Your link says it can’t find any issues, there are issues. Can you advise if it’s being investigated? What’s the eta? Thanks.

    @Mattallwright 2 years on since I have been having trouble with Virgin Media (fingers crossed) they may have now get an uninterrupted supply after charging me late payments more than double my Media prices whilst as a Vulnerable Person they were awful

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

    @virginmedia I’ve spent over 2 hours on the phone and I lost count of people I’ve spoken to when I got to 12. That’s just today and this has gone on for weeks. Pretty sure you would’ve lost me as a very longstanding customer by the time 28 days is up.

  • RWheelhouse1
    rachel Wheelhouse 🇺🇦 (@RWheelhouse1) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @virginmedia 6 days since moving to Virgin, we are having issues, the WiFi won't reach our outside cameras. After completing the troubleshooting guides + waiting for over an hour for a chat agent + 30 mins on the phone, we still haven't spoken to a human....not impressed

  • katie_2521
    Katie Williams (@katie_2521) reported from Wickford, England

    @virginmedia I had already look at this page previously. And when we have issues there is no indication on what it could be, I. E the *********** light is in as if its connected

  • KatiePurkiss

    . @virginmedia down yet again? Not able to watch On Demand and error messages. Plus their website is down. 🙄

  • 1CreativeRay
    Dr Stower and the Stock Market of Madness 🦍 (@1CreativeRay) reported from Wainscott, England

    @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

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

    @virginmedia I’ve now been told that there is no complaints team, despite the fact I spoke to them earlier. How is it possible to be so poor?

  • KatiePurkiss
    Katie Purkiss (@KatiePurkiss) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    Virgin Media broadband down AGAIN. Service Status website & app don’t work as no internet connection 🤨 @virginmedia

    @virginmedia just checking if you guys have resolved the broadband issues in my area, I was told it would be resolved by 2 pm today but the wi-fi is still very bad!

  • PamelaTigger19
    Pamela (@PamelaTigger19) reported

    @virginmedia @virginhelp just received yet another scam call. Other providers offer a free call blocker to help stop this - do you?

  • MiniDavidHaye
    Andrew wesley (@MiniDavidHaye) reported

    @virginmedia I have spend the last two hour speaking to more then 7 people to try arrange my internet broadband that was meant to be installed on Saturday. It is now Tuesday and I have got nowhere. Absolutely disgusting service from @virginmedia

  • NvrTrustVelcro
    Never Trust Velcro (@NvrTrustVelcro) reported

    If anyone is looking for broadband/TV services then I would urge you to stay away from @virginmedia. After being a customer for over 6 years I have had a horrific experience arranging changes to my package and a house move over the last couple of weeks. A thread...

  • bethel_ashcroft
    Bethany Ashcroft (@bethel_ashcroft) reported

    @BeckyEverson @SkyUK @virginmedia Yes maybe faster when it works. I would never switch to them tho. Sky fibre hardly goes down. Virgin has already gone down about 10 times for days since it's been put round here & they once left my old house without internet for over a month! So don't expect all good things.

  • zombie_apoc1
    GJM (@zombie_apoc1) reported

    @virginmedia please help me get your super broadband. I’ve been with @SkyUK for last three years and can not watch any film without constant loss of connection. They could provide a signal booster to stop this but they won’t. No customer care whatsoever.

  • TIMO317
    TIMO-3 (@TIMO317) reported

    @virginmedia No I haven't, I don't have the time. I've tried everything to get online on my side. Do we have a problem in the postcode?

  • LimitedPwc
    PWCLimited (@LimitedPwc) reported

    @BeckyEverson @SkyUK @virginmedia I finally got rid of Virgin. The worst package I’ve ever had 🙏

  • DeannaLouise93
    Deanna Matthews (@DeannaLouise93) reported

    @virginmedia You’ve now also, really unhelpfully made unauthorised changes on the account to provide us with less service (yes that’s hard for me to imagine too!) for a higher price! What kind of a company are you?!

  • KullyD2
    Kully D (@KullyD2) reported

    @virginmedia how can I be paying for 200 speed and only getting 16.6 mbps and on certain days it’s even gone down to kbps. I have been a loyal customer for years.
