  • jooz282
    Julie McCarthy (@jooz282) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia It was a little more than short lasting pixelation! The channel kept dropping completely and during the main fight it felt like we were watching in slow motion.

    Virgin Media are terrible 🤣 if it’s not the WiFi playing up, it’s the TV lol

  • helloellaxo
    Ella (@helloellaxo) reported from Maidstone, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I’m switching to Virgin broadband next week (being installed) but my Now broadband doesn’t end until the 11th, is that going to be a problem? Can it still be installed? Thank you

  • wharfyoung
    jordan (@wharfyoung) reported from Wateringbury, England

    @virginmedia Oh now this is the clincher, I can’t make a complaint online because the account has been disconnected. So when I login it tells me I don’t have access to that page. It’s almost like VM don’t want disgruntled former customers tearing them a new backside in their complaints.

  • yiddo71
    Mark Gould (@yiddo71) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia Still @virginmedia can’t get anything right!! Still you screw everything up and provide really bad customer service @BBCWatchdog

  • lillyelizax
    SatansLittleGirl🔮 (@lillyelizax) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia There isn’t internet down time the box has stopped working, they can’t get a new box out here till mid week, with a lot of people working from home you think you’d have next day delivery or something, bad enough we can’t have a engineer out to help

  • SETimberDamp
    South East Timber & Damp (@SETimberDamp) reported from Maidstone, England

    Hanging on now for over an hour to @virginmedia after being sold a router for a new flat that I told them had a BT phone socket. Trying to #cancel as landlord wont have additional sockets. Lady put us in hold/SILENT for 55mins - they are hoping we disconnect. #virginmedia

  • onearmedjohn
    Onearmedjohn (@onearmedjohn) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia This is so tiresome I have complained so many times about slow broadband speed, unreliable WiFi, terrible TV services & only after threatening to leave did you send an engineer in July. This made it a little better, but recently it’s been unreliable of an evening.

  • bigben9696
    Gingerbread Man (@bigben9696) reported from Rainham, England

    @virginmedia no Internet and the website down....have you tried turning yourself off and on again?

  • SUEG46
    Sue Groves MBE (@SUEG46) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia we seem to have WiFi still but our sky box has lost connection.. is this related to the issues you have?

  • 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!!

  • elise_john85
    Elise 💉💉💉💉 (@elise_john85) reported from Maidstone, England

    @virginmedia Can you tell me how to correct the address on my own! Apparently it’s been incorrect for the 4 years we’ve had your service!

  • Scott_Wic
    Scott Wickham (@Scott_Wic) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia My request to support was about the hub5 and some Wi-Fi extenders/boosters which I’m entitled to, they said that it was sorted and would be in the post and now only the hub5 has turned up!!! Does this mean I have to contact support again…….

    Hmm, #Skyglass is looking like a decent option if this #virginmedia outage becomes a habit.

  • finalstand79
    just me (@finalstand79) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia are shocking, offered me a contract with Netflix, didn't get it , made a complaint , did nothing other than acknowledged i made a complaint and my signal is always shocking. Warned so many people about them

  • ABabySeagull
    ABabySeagull🇬🇧🇮🇪 (@ABabySeagull) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia I agree. Even when I had decided to leave, it would have been easy to escape from Alcatraz than cancel the contract. Never again!

  • yrubswed
    asum izak (@yrubswed) reported

    @Ofcom @virginmedia must send you an End of Contract Notification (EoCN) between 10 and 40 days before contract ends. This alerts upcoming price changes and available deals, however, sometimes this does not provide 30 days' notice to formally cancel on most occasions. Ofcom investigate

  • Tomz66
    Tommy (@Tomz66) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Totally agree. Dog **** company.I'll never use any of there services again.

  • AnthonyJames03
    Anthony James (@AnthonyJames03) reported

    @IanLythgoe4 @virginmedia Dude switch to Sky. I heard so much bad about them, but has been amazing ! Customer service is so much better than virgins was and I was with them 7years

  • Monapics
    Monapics.com (@Monapics) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia They have been fined by the mediator in my case but still have not fixed a simple email issue. They have now been pulled up again to get it sorted from last year. Dealing with the Indian call centres have had no progress there, and only one person spoke understandable English

  • Mikefromtheuk
    Mike (@Mikefromtheuk) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia They are truly terrible. If you simply want an internet connection and you don't have any problems, you might be okay, but as soon as anything goes wrong you hit their awful customer service. I had intermittent problems and it took months to get resolved, I then went to Sky asap.

  • IlPoofto
    The Emperor Poofius Maximus (@IlPoofto) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia No customer service in the evenings and weekends, when people are most likely to need it...

  • SniperRais
    COVENANT ENFORCER ENGLAND (@SniperRais) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia yes they are not good at customer service .... they only have process for what the business doeballs call the happy path. I had to suffer these morons until I could retire , they were coming through the Grad systems and qualifications were replacing wisdom and experience.

  • chris327759
    chris8854.bskysocial (@chris327759) reported

    @virginmedia No I’m aware of the power outage so all I want to do is watch tv which is fine. There’s no internet yet, it’s the message constantly flashing up on the screen that’s annoying. Once u have seen it once, u shouldn’t need to see it again, but every 10 seconds it’s there
