  • 1972CW1972 catherine (@1972CW1972) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia seriously listening to stupid music for 12 minutes, gets thru, told to hold and then cut off 😫

  • KRobbo1982 Karl Robinson (@KRobbo1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia are a joke! Ive lost my services for today due to their incompetence. Been on the phone for 45 mins and got nowhere. Complaint lodged which will also get nowhere i bet.

  • CllrMichaelHaw Councillor Michael Haw (@CllrMichaelHaw) reported from Eccleston, England

    @stevehhh Virgin media is accessible, the problem has been reliability. A number of residents on those roads listed have had severe issues with the service & from experience BT Broadband is the more reliable. For example, in Eccleston Park residents now have access to Virgin & BT... [cont]

  • kaths77x Kathryn Skelly (@kaths77x) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia disgusted that as a valued customer for over 15 years, I’m moving property, wanting to move my services to my new address but because it is above a business you will not install so you are charging me for closing my account which I do not want to do 😡

  • Benmorley23 Ben Morley (@Benmorley23) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia @Ofcom I now have a recording of the last advisor who I spoken to... terrible terrible service and I will not ever return to @virginmedia. What a waste after 20 years of being with you. What a shame, I will send the recording to @ofcom and cancel the direct debit 👍🏻

  • Benmorley23 Ben Morley (@Benmorley23) reported from Warrington, England

    2nd attempt to cancel my account and @virginmedia hang up again. I requested to raise a complaint and they hang up! @Ofcom will be contacted. (Seen as you’re not allowing a consumer to raise a complaint)

  • kevchem1 Kevin Skinley (@kevchem1) reported from Liverpool, England

    This is really awful all round. Really hope virginmedia come to their senses

  • YODELhell YODELhell (@YODELhell) reported from Ellesmere Port, England

    Virgin Media demonstrating they’re as useless as YODEL when it comes to customer support.

  • GemlouHughes Gemmalouise Hughes (@GemlouHughes) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia wow I’m Disappointed with your services last wk there was an outage so u gave 5g for every1 to use didn’t know you was gonna take it away on the Monday I think that’s disgusting I have five lines with you plus home! Something better needs 2 b done not all use net

  • WirralLiverpool Andy Wroblewski (@WirralLiverpool) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia I’ve had issues during my 12month contract & I still rang up to renew. I was then told I wasn’t entitled to any new customer deals & I’d have to pay a £1 more a month for your budget service compared to what a new customer would pay for your top package.

  • WirralLiverpool Andy Wroblewski (@WirralLiverpool) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia Any deal that a new customer can get would be fine :) I don’t think it’s fair a customer that’s been with you for 10 years who already has all the equipment needed should pay more for less

  • WirralLiverpool Andy Wroblewski (@WirralLiverpool) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @MattTRFC @Stemac2010 @virginmedia Yes Matt, I was shocked too I had no choice but to hand my 30days notice in, I’ve been with them since 2009 no way I’m paying £1 more a month for 100mb compared to what a new customer would pay for 300mb!

  • 1972CW1972 catherine (@1972CW1972) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia That’s the number I’ve been on hold to, then got cut off. I have 3 phone acc, TV, broadband and a business acc. I just want to cancel one sim and it seems impossible

  • CllrMichaelHaw Councillor Michael Haw (@CllrMichaelHaw) reported from Eccleston, England

    @stevehhh so if there are issues with Virgin Media they can easily switch to BT. If BT High Speed Fibre Optic broadband can be secured sooner, rather than later, those residents who are experiencing issues with Virgin Media can switch/be able to access the High Speed Fibre Optic service.

  • amynaylorr AmyNaylor (@amynaylorr) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Hi, my 4G/Phone calls/Texts arent working on my phone even though I have 4 bars of signal, wondering if it's a phone problem or a problem with the virgin network

  • Lucy8720 Lucy87 (@Lucy8720) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia Getting seriously fed up of watching something on Netflix and 20 mins in and it goes off again. Same with my phone, always has an exclamation bar next to it. Internet is awful, i was told if im not getting what im supposed to be i can cancel which is what i will be

  • Benmorley23 Ben Morley (@Benmorley23) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia You replying like this is extremely poor customer service. You are insinuating I have been disconnected when I simply want cancel my account. **** it I’ll cancel the direct debit and just leave the country. @Ofcom

  • Alisonbirchall4 Alison Birchall (@Alisonbirchall4) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia and I can’t get on the service status page either!

  • YODELhell YODELhell (@YODELhell) reported from Ellesmere Port, England

    @virginmedia STOP parroting the same crap.

  • jmcloughlin jmcloughlin (@jmcloughlin) reported from Liverpool, England

    ITV is down on Virgin Media in Liverpool. This means Gardeners’ World is going to get ratings akin to City of Death Part 4.

  • MonsieurSavage Alex Savage (@MonsieurSavage) reported

    @virginmedia this is a joke now. You are taking our money despite not providing us with any service for 5 WEEKS…!! Pathetic company.

  • DonttrusttheBBC PAUL BALLARD (@DonttrusttheBBC) reported

    @virginmedia my wifi is absolute crap. Unreliable, buffering on a Sunday morning and at other times. Either the router is useless or the TiVo or whatever you call it is useless at picking up the signal. Maybe @BT would be better for me as they have Wi-Fi thingy on a post outside

  • ZipClap ZipClap (@ZipClap) reported

    @rawsonjones @virginmedia LOL Ben if it's any consolation my Fido has been down for five days straight in downtown Toronto. I was just about to switch to Virgin. :)

  • CluelessH A Wondering Loner (@CluelessH) reported

    @virginmedia It's not my phone. It's the service overall. going on the VM forums others are moaning about it. It's the masts.

  • sara_saehasti Sara (@sara_saehasti) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia Did you read the message, I don't want to call or use whats app ad uve spent far too long doing this already. So I'll have to complain in writing then it seems. Shocking service yet again you do not read whta a customer is saying.

  • wwooldridge Warren Wooldridge (@wwooldridge) reported

    @virginmedia Managed to get through to customer services who are now saying there’s a “complex” problem in area and engineers are doing there utmost to resolve this. Perhaps there should be a “complex” problem with my direct debit each month there are issues that be ok ?

  • realgeedub1979 GeeDub (@realgeedub1979) reported

    @virginmedia @MazDeLaPaiz We have same issue with our Hive and Hub. Any idea or suggestions how this was fixed. Restarted Hive the Routers. Tried everything and the app still isn't working and showing as not connected. The Virgin Connect app not recognising the Hive either. Cleared Cache on both apps too.

  • brewstergracey Mike Grace (@brewstergracey) reported

    @virginmedia Since technical error prompt appeared understandable I did not pursue the matter further It’s begs the question why do you not contact support/It to resolve issues for dissatisfied customers

  • sim_missim sim (@sim_missim) reported

    @virginmedia Yes it did show on service checker been down from afternoon to 16.45 Last week it was most of the sat last Saturday

  • Peasy570 Craig Patrick (@Peasy570) reported

    @virginmedia So now we have gone from hoping to have service restored by last night at 7.30, to today at 12.30, then this evening at 8.30, and the latest update is tomorrow at 10 30. Appalling service, yet we won't get any refund unless it's still off most of tomorrow.
