  • Davidp1103 Davidp (@Davidp1103) reported from Snodland, England

    @virginmedia @LeePartridge16 A particularly poor explanation. What you really mea n is that you only offer attractive prices to grab new customers but have little regard for customer loyalty. That's why I left @virginmedia too

  • marksands69 ⚒Mark Sands⚒ (@marksands69) reported from Rainham, England

    Anyone still having broadband issues with @virginmedia

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

    @virginmedia what is going on with broadband not working in ME7 area?? Cannot access website either so unable to check status…

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

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

  • mikej2504 Michael Jones (@mikej2504) reported from Walderslade, England

    @virginmedia When I am advised by City Fibre when the service is going live I will then choose an alternative supplier all of which will be cheaper than Virgin and then advise when I would want your service disconnected

  • mikej2504 Michael Jones (@mikej2504) reported from Walderslade, England

    @virginmedia offers social tariff of £12.50 for 15mb which is slow. Better option almost anyone with BT £12.50 for 36mb and Vodafone £12.50 for 38mb. Virgin also has £20 for 54mb but is higher price than most others offering same.

  • 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…….

  • 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.

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

  • 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!!

  • nigelrumsey Nigel Rumsey (@nigelrumsey) reported from Gravesend, England

    @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.

  • 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

  • SeanM_ODP Sean McDonald (@SeanM_ODP) reported from Maidstone, England

    1hr 15mins on the phone and counting just trying to cancel @virginmedia @VMHelpDesk Disgrace to be honest

  • MikeBuckley2 Michael Buckley (@MikeBuckley2) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia I am trying to access live chat as I have blackspots in house and would like WiFi boosters from Virgin. I have 200 Mbps but am getting only 20mbps in bedroom. Cannot find live chat on sites other than loads of help pages. Really frustrating

  • PcPresenter PCPresenter (@PcPresenter) reported from Maidstone, England

    @virginmedia If you do not fix the #FuryWhyte fight by 7:30pm, I will cancel my subscription and go to @sky as they seem to be able to hold up their end of a contract.

  • PcPresenter PCPresenter (@PcPresenter) reported from Maidstone, England

    @virginmedia Why is the #FuryWhyte fight not working?? I want compensation for this

  • vamplady35 Sharon Cooper (@vamplady35) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia My understanding is that it is affecting a lot of people. I have now worked out how to access my email another way but do strongly feel that virgin media should be looking to resolve this issue ASAP.

  • vamplady35 Sharon Cooper (@vamplady35) reported from Gillingham, England

    @jamesdgreen02 @virginmedia I've got the same problem. Was told by the faults team that if it wasn't fixed by 11pm last night that it should be fixed by 8pm tonight. Still not fixed at the moment

  • adxmp_21 Singh (@adxmp_21) reported

    Honestly there isn’t a worse broadband provider for customer service than @virginmedia , WiFi down since Thursday and the earliest they can send an engineer is Monday. So paying for 5 days of no service?

  • pgray57 pat smith (@pgray57) reported

    @virginmedia Is there a problem in the YO26 5JZ area as the two boxes we have the picture is pixelating badly

  • JayLinAntiques Justin Fryer (@JayLinAntiques) reported

    @virginmedia So we're we're updated last night informing you'd come today 21st, nobody arrived. Called to check and now informed it will now be the 26th! I have a vulnerable person in the property and wish I hadn't called to fix the pixelation on the TV as you've made everything worse.

  • malstar79 Neil Malley (@malstar79) reported

    @virginmedia My elderly folks internet, TV and landline has been down since Thursday. You keep pushing back the estimated fix time, now Monday. They can’t get past your automated support systems to speak to a human about this. What on earth is going on with the BB2 area? Sort it!

    @virginmedia Hi, do you have a contact email address where I can cancel my account. I've tried on webchat but they're asking for parts of a password that I don't know

  • Jenny49059358 Jenny (@Jenny49059358) reported

    @virginmedia how can I get some technical help. Hub delivered with no instructions, socket is old and I can’t install the cable. This isn’t safe!

  • GeekyHairy GeekyHairyBestia (@GeekyHairy) reported

    @virginmedia Yes get my Internet back on. I’m losing money while it’s off as can not work ans can not even go home. Having to sit in my car in a carpark to get stuff done and even use phone. Been promising to sort cell issue out over a year and still nothing

  • GeekyHairy GeekyHairyBestia (@GeekyHairy) reported

    @virginmedia But a week. How is that okay on any level. Like I say I work from home and only can talk to you now as I’ve had to walk off my street to get a signal. As although I’m with you for mobile as well and live close to tower apparently I live to close to get a signal. Lucky if get 1Bar

  • riktem Rik Temmink (@riktem) reported

    @virginmedia Your 360 service is shockingly bad and so is your customer service! My box was upgraded this week, nothing but problems since. Online chat agent said he fixed it, but didn't. Phone support agent says he has to ask IT, will take 5 business days. Not good enough.
