  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Yes, this has been going on now for months. Was just on to your team to cancel, they hung up on me. I’ve never known a more woeful service. They are quick enough to take payment every month for a service I’m not getting.

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia are an absolute joke. Was told to call back at half 6 and guess what? They’re shut! And again, no engineer visit. Getting cancelled 1st thing in the morning. Over a month of total loss of service, piss take. #avoid

  • Radebreast Graeme Radebe (@Radebreast) reported from Ormskirk, England

    @virginmedia what have you done to the Sky TV app - its constantly buffering and showing error messages. Just awful service. Please can you get this sorted ASAP please.

  • JohnMurphy9172 murf (@JohnMurphy9172) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Just managed to get hold of someone, and apparently after over 10 years of no problems I now need WiFi boosters at an extra cost to myself all of a sudden, they couldn't tell me why just trying to squeeze more money out of me

  • Radebreast Graeme Radebe (@Radebreast) reported from Ormskirk, England

    @virginmedia Hi - Ive noticed alot of people are having the same issues. Its the Sky TV Go app on Playstation 4. Ive checked it on another internet and it works fine so it is definitely an error on your side. You need to sort the internet settings. It struggles to load “on Now” on the app.

  • NatashaVic Capitã Nat (@NatashaVic) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Can I speak to a human, please? It’s impossible to speak to anyone here. I paid for my bill via bank transfer more than a week ago and it hasn’t been registered. Phone service is not recognising my password and I can’t find a live chat.

  • realjackoh187 Jack Kelly (@realjackoh187) reported from Widnes, England

    @virginmedia Just wifi, the phones tablets tv all just going off randomly. I have now booked a technician but I have been doing the troubleshooting for 2 days and its saying the issue is being fixed. Its only today they have said to send a technician

  • MirLADas phil61efc (@MirLADas) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia what’s going on virgin no tv since Friday morning told 5th now 6th no messages nothing paying for nothing compensation rates garbage nothing should take this long with a company like virgin L4 area

  • realjackoh187 Jack Kelly (@realjackoh187) reported from Widnes, England

    @virginmedia So I had loss of service but not complete even tho the service I had wasn't enough to even complete a 15 minute online training. Great. Even though you only have cold water, would you still get a bath? Nah don't think you would

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia 38 days after the repull should’ve been done? You think that’s good customer service?

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia It’s to our address, we need a full repull and was told it would be done within 48hrs. This issue has been going on for months, they were just telling me to reboot the hub.

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    Day 42 of no service from @virginmedia. Engineer meant to be coming again today, think I’ve more chance of a unicorn showing up to be fair. 🦄

  • realjackoh187 Jack Kelly (@realjackoh187) reported from Widnes, England

    @virginmedia Visit was fine replaced wifi. I was never out of Internet completely like it says only your compensation page, but it was equally as bad since my step daughter had online training to do which couldn't be done at all. My children also were not able to do homework.

  • DannyLannon dannyWAFClannon (@DannyLannon) reported from Wigan, England

    @Louisewafc @virginmedia Nice of Stoke fans turn up to support us

  • BootleFCBucks Bootle Bucks (@BootleFCBucks) reported from Liverpool, England

    @JamesSymes8 Virgin Media. It keeps going really bad.

  • Gary_Kilroy Gary Kilroy (@Gary_Kilroy) reported from Liverpool, England

    Having the choice of the awful customer service of @virginmedia or the @bt_uk network which in my area might as well be two tin cans tied together with string is great!

  • agarnett Adam (@agarnett) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Is there any way to tell if there are signal issues in your area? This says i should get 4g indoors and outdoors, i dont though i can barely access mobile internet from my house. Last 3 months have been awful

  • John_Kelly17 John Kelly (@John_Kelly17) reported from St Helens, England

    @CruisingTheCut I’ve had very few issues with virgin media - depends if you need TV though. Otherwise I’ve heard very good things about over the air using the three network or EE.

  • realjackoh187 Jack Kelly (@realjackoh187) reported from Widnes, England

    @virginmedia I'm checking online and it's saying there is an issue with the TV, but saying broadband is fine. I've had constant disconnections throughout the day for 2 weeks now. It works for a few minutes then goes off. What is going on?

  • Robertlfc_ Rob (@Robertlfc_) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia just been took out of a game of fifa, that I was winning! Because of your awful internet. Get it fixed!!

  • ewan_angus Ewan Angus (@ewan_angus) reported

    @virginmedia So.. you dont know anything, nor do the call centre, nor does the website. Only the "field team" who are keeping it a secret? or do not actually exist? Worst customer service I can think of from anyone.

  • deepak_pillay Deepak Pillay (@deepak_pillay) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, thanks for the reply. Yes there is an intermittent service issue in the area (today) However, it's been like this for over a month now with constant slow downs and disconnects every single day, and your links sometimes says nothing wrong. Paying for this doesn't seem right.

  • Yolandae Be Kind, Be Creative with food (@Yolandae) reported

    @virginmedia I have checked it but still not working yet reporting that the the broadband is OK

  • pollygilfillan pauline gilfillan (@pollygilfillan) reported

    @virginmedia any update with the internet being up and running at EH7 6PN??? It's been down 7 days!! If customer service says, yes ma'am it will be up and running by 10pm tonight one more time, I'm going to lose it. Flipping disgrace

  • tonegode Anthony Biddlestone (@tonegode) reported

    @virginmedia Is there a complaints email address as I am getting nowhere with customer services on WhatsApp

  • netsmith chris aldridge (@netsmith) reported

    @virginmedia Unbelievable. Your customer service team literally just hung up on me. I was calm, polite and just trying to work out why you were not honouring the agreed deal and when I asked if I could discuss with some higher up. They just said ‘thats it and hung up’

  • FairbairnStacey Stacey Fairbairn (@FairbairnStacey) reported

    @virginmedia Day 7 no wifi 🙃 and don’t tell me to check the link. The link is a load of nonsense as it’s never fixed when it says it will be .
