    @virginmedia Sort it out Virgin IT’S NOT GOOD ENOUGH!!!!!! Can’t even log on to get service updates 😡😡😡

  • Lisa2672 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.

  • GoonerGrizzly 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.

  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia A number of times. But let’s be honest, they’re nothing but messengers. There is no escalation, and they can’t even call the construction company to escalate issues. As someone who has worked within many projects teams, and mapped business processes, yours is simply shocking

  • Matty411 Matt Frow (@Matty411) reported from Corringham, England

    @virginmedia I hope you can help me. When I try to watch TV on virgin tv go,but it come up something went wrong error comes up (even if I use another account). I hope you can help me.

  • 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

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

    I have had wifi issues since june2020now they are trying to get paid twice im 1 month. Virgin still owe me compensation. Due to Virgin's failure to keepvulnerablepeoplesafe.://www.virginmedia.com/support/help/check-services/address-identification/identify

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

    @virginmedia You are no longer my ISP due to your incompetence. Also there will be a lawsuit pending due to the fact I almost died from pneumonia with pulmonary oedema and sepsis later going into stage 2 respiratory failure. Your useless service is unacceptable.

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

    @virginmedia They haven’t got through to anyone to cancel it yet?

  • KatiePurkiss 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!

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

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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • J4Y_DEE Justin 🇺🇦 (@J4Y_DEE) reported from Gravesend, England

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

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

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

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

    @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 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

  • BenWBriscoe Ben Briscoe (@BenWBriscoe) reported

    Brand new @virginmedia customer. Generally impressed. But why is watching Disney +, Netflix etc through Virgin TV so clunky?! Really slow, takes forever to navigate and no ability to navigate these apps with voice… Have I actually downgraded..?!

  • rejectedtheoffa Matt (@rejectedtheoffa) reported

    @LeemingDarren @virginmedia Virgin Media customer services are absolutely awful. And I say that as a current customer. Keep all messages and open a complaint with them. Be prepared for them to say they'll sort it and close your complaint, numerous times. I've never dealt with a bigger bunch of liars

  • SirRodneyFfing The Sanity Clause🖖 (@SirRodneyFfing) reported

    Dear @SkyUK You are as bad as ******* @virginmedia Best regards

  • ShoyebJeeva Shoyeb Jeeva (@ShoyebJeeva) reported

    @lababer @virginmedia Freeview channels not working properly. Crystal palace transmitter.

  • ojaxx2 @Tone (@ojaxx2) reported

    So I managed to finally change my Virgin Media contract into my sole name on Saturday It’s been a nightmare I was promised no interruption in service etc etc Anyway, I’ve had no internet for 48 hours now. Well done @virginmedia 👍🏻

  • AlBooth Al Booth (@AlBooth) reported

    Has anyone else had @virginmedia charging them for services they don’t have? In May I asked about their TV package on the chat service. I still have Sky, I don’t have Virgin TV… but they’ve added it to my broadband bill & said it’ll be £600+ to cancel. Anyone else @BBCWatchdog?

  • AaronFalkirk Aaron Smith (@AaronFalkirk) reported

    @O2 recently taken out a new @virginmedia / @O2 VOLT contract with yourselves. Provided PAC code and ended up with a split port. Can make calls but unable to receive calls. Over 1 week on, numerous calls and no resolution. Can you help or pass me to the right team?

  • MalSannie Mal Sannie (@MalSannie) reported

    @virginmedia I can't get to the login page for skysports on a browser, it fails. And I also can't reset my sky pin in my sky device management page, it fails to send with an error message. It doesn't show any devices registered.

  • NadeemS64508308 Nadeem Shareef (@NadeemS64508308) reported

    @virginmedia I need to cancel my new Virgin media account. I can’t activate the equipment were received few days ago and I can’t use that.

  • WhiteHartMart WhiteHartMart (@WhiteHartMart) reported

    Another day, another loss in broadband service from @virginmedia - feels like the network is falling apart in PL12 lately. Hurry up with Ultra @bt_uk - I'll be switching in an instant.
