    @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

  • LindzDDub
    Lindz Devine (@LindzDDub) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp I've never had this much issue as I have had today. I'm plugged in on ethernet, I've reset my hub, and checked my area and there is no issue at all. My WiFi is working from my hub but yet its booting me out of Destiny 2 and not just that but the chat parties on PS5 itself

  • Nicolajb87
    Nicola Bates (@Nicolajb87) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Im not free no but shes managed to get a whats app going although the numbers they are giving her are not working. She just wants her phone to work.

  • 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.

  • tomrushton88
    Tom Rushton (@tomrushton88) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia And the last complaint I raised over this got cancelled because it didn't have any details to the complaint even though all the messages are there to see through your WhatsApp service but the retentions team can't see that or deal with the complaint or help in anyway way

    Virgin media customer service 🥴😭🤯

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

    @virginmedia is honestly the worst company for WiFi

  • obpls1995
    owen southworth (@obpls1995) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia can you explain why the moment I told your staff over the phone that I was disabled they decided to speak to me as if I was an idiot and then tell me they can't help me because I can't spell out my password despite telling them 5 times what the password was.

  • 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?

  • DaveMbootlebuck
    DM 🦌 (@DaveMbootlebuck) reported from Litherland, England

    @virginmedia Mine has just gone down now. I can’t ring via the virgin phone because the phone is connected to the hub.

  • DaveMbootlebuck
    DM 🦌 (@DaveMbootlebuck) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia No. Can’t get through. I’ve just submitted a complaint

  • davetarl
    Dave Tarleton 💙 (@davetarl) reported from Wallasey, England

    @virginmedia I want to cancel my contract as it is at the end. Twice now I have been kicked off the chat whilst waiting. This is unacceptable. I can't ring at present so the chat is ideal to run in the background. I just want to press a button that says end the contract!

  • TimmyJ1972
    Tim Jackson (@TimmyJ1972) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia I’d love to hear from how I’m supposed to report an issue with my broadband. You can’t do it via live chat and seemingly not via the phone either as you’re “experiencing difficulties”

  • supergran22
    Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia Thanks. Very frustrating and time consuming. Spent whole afternoon trying to sort it. Twitter not really the best way to resolve issues especially with an 82 year old.

  • les_murray71
    Lesley Murray (@les_murray71) reported from Wallasey, England

    @virginmedia @joshyw0shy Its the whole of the Wirral by the sound of it, no statement from Virgin, just telling hundreds of customers to check for an outage, only have to look at their twitter to see how many of us have been told the same thing

  • NdawanaY
    Ndawana Youngson (@NdawanaY) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Too many service drops. Engineer has been to properly to fix but this persists.

  • TimmyJ1972
    Tim Jackson (@TimmyJ1972) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia To be honest, the issue is an intermittent fault. My wife works from home and the broadband just drops out numerous times a day. Then comes back on. It’s only worthwhile doing a remote test if it’s when it drops out. Otherwise all will look fine

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

    @virginmedia fix ur awful service!!!!

    @virginmedia another day with out service. That was nearly all day yesterday and so far 4 hours today. That’s three times this week so far. But I bet you’ll still take your money for no service

  • Prodgey
    Lyn Prodger (she/her) (@Prodgey) reported

    @virginmedia Also just checking my call log to The 0345 service number. 9 calls sine 23rd June. Are these free of charge. Twice you were booked to call me and you didn’t. Your service and customer service is appalling.

  • kestrel89B
    Liam (@kestrel89B) reported

    @itvnews To be honest it is so difficult to speak to a human at @virginmedia I'm not surprised anyone could cancel their contracts. #virginmedia

  • alilangton
    Ali Langton ex DerbyDYO (@alilangton) reported

    @virginmedia Has anyone else had their Virgin Media account locked for over two months and despite multiple phone calls and false promises nothing happens ? Should I just leave virgin ? Very poor customer service

  • ConorSwifty
    Conor Swifty (@ConorSwifty) reported

    @virginmedia Hello Virgin the issue I had got resolved after 40 mins until Clarissa decided to do her job. I'm hoping she gets looked into & gave proper training & help people who have Learning difficulties/disabilities as we struggle to understand stuff but she rather take advantage

    Virgin media absolute ghouls One of the worst companies in UK by a margin

    Sort your ******* Internet out @virginmedia 3 times it's went off since AV woke up n gives you the same bullshit excuse on the service status.

  • ramnishkalsi
    Ramnish Kalsi (@ramnishkalsi) reported

    @virginmedia hope you are happy with the extra £200 when you failed to cancel my contract after 2 hours on phone. Karma strikes eventually.

  • DHPrevention
    Neya (@DHPrevention) reported

    @Ofcom Good! It's the sneaky snaky foreign (South Asian) call handlers. It's bad enough they can hardly speak English. @virginmedia

    scott (@scott2328446402) reported

    @BBCBreakfast Good, had nothing but trouble with @virginmedia disgusting company. Pulling ***** tricks when I wanted to cancel. Renewed my contract without my consent & told me I had to pay over £2000 to leave. I hope the go bump!
