  • Ulster_lad_17 John-Roy Singleton (@Ulster_lad_17) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia They have the money to give cheaper deals, but don't have the financial services for staff! Wtf is going on here??? @TheSun

  • leeradcliffe73 lee Radcliffe (@leeradcliffe73) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia Yes I have used the connect app and it only works when I’m a meter from the router. I’m paying you for a service you can’t provide but you call me to say why don’t you upgrade to 300mb speeds when you can’t even give 10. Appalling

  • simonnewby Simon Newby (@simonnewby) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I do have a reference bit this is exactly the standard (or total lack) of service I have received for the last 4 weeks, hence the open complaint. Not one person from Virgin has contacted me in any way in that time, despite at least weekly promises like this one.

  • NamuGriff Namu Griff (@NamuGriff) reported from Fareham, England

    Seems @virginmedia is having issues again and my father can’t get into emails at the moment. So told him to leave it. He even complained about not getting any spam emails.

  • Waspsoton the devil (@Waspsoton) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @SHATCHARD @BexyKent @virginmedia Yeah had the same problem the last time I chatted too then

  • SteveWasteney Steve (@SteveWasteney) reported from Netley, England

    @virginmedia What is Your issue with Netflix. It is working on my separate devices and my TV if I connect without using Virgin TV

  • dw644122 I’ll say it. (@dw644122) reported from Havant, England

    @soojahpah @virginmedia Absolutely bollox, I cancelled my whole account with VM as the service was an absolute disgrace. Never ever again will I ever go to VM even for a jar of fresh air.

  • formula1girl Sarah-Jane Finch (@formula1girl) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia more of your appalling customer service!!!! Spend over 90 minutes on your chat help “service” trying to resolve an issue and your agent takes a break. When he returns and I don’t reply as I’m getting lunch I get cut off. And guess what?

  • Jack_Deyes Jack Deyes (@Jack_Deyes) reported from Southampton, England

    @Kelly_Jackson88 @virginmedia I was with them for a few weeks and all I had was problems with them. I’ve moved over to #BT and they are great so maybe check them out

  • obcans mark wilson (@obcans) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I fail to see wot difference that make my Wi-Fi is rubbish my Internet drops in and out all the time I have hours on the phone with people and it's still the same I want something done about it 😫

  • dolb21 Ronnie Pickering (@dolb21) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @abhishekmah98 I wanted this sooo much. I used to be with Virgin media and used to get half of what you are getting right now, for much more money that what i’m paying now for gigabit! I live in a big house tho so it’s difficult trying to spread all the wifi signal around.

  • Ben78Ben Ben Hall (@Ben78Ben) reported from Havant, England

    @virginmedia broadband and tv is down in the PO9 area, please do better happens way too often

  • sae_dew Shannen AE (@sae_dew) reported from Hill Head, England

    @virginmedia my internet has been down for over an hour and I’ve reset and rebooted it many times!!! It says service is fine in this area… but it’s not.

  • obcans mark wilson (@obcans) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I've have said my Internet drops out my TV my laptop witch are connected via ethernet cable drop out its not good enough I have always had this problem I just want it sorted out

  • formula1girl Sarah-Jane Finch (@formula1girl) reported from Eastleigh, England

    @virginmedia what a surprise, even after cancelling my service with you I’m still getting bills!!! I cannot believe your customer service is awful even after leaving.

  • BurtyAdam BurtyAdam (@BurtyAdam) reported from Gosport, England

    @virginmedia what is going on with your internet. Been with you since July + never known a service with so much down time. Went down yesterday, went down again today with a known issue and an engineer out to fix. Back an hour before it drops again and now there's no known issues

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    Yeah I'm just gonna point out that I couldn't give a **** about the boxing Boxing is a sport that's become corrupt like the Brazilian government, money driven like a Latin American drug lord, so yeah, I'm not paying £25, on top of the £126 I pay to @virginmedia every month

  • _GSPhotography Graham Scambler pics (@_GSPhotography) reported from Eastleigh, England

  • 5Serendipity_ seren (@5Serendipity_) reported

    @virginmedia Is there something wrong with you? Cant read all my tweets that specifically tel you that you don’t answer calls, or if you do after an hour the person refuses to cancel my contract? Tempted to attempt contacting the ceo with print outs of allllll these tweets from 100’s of us.

  • FoxTv_69 Jordan (@FoxTv_69) reported

    Sat around for the last 10 hours or so waiting for @virginmedia customer service to get back to me. I get not as many people are working but come on.

  • Richard_Malec Richard Malec (@Richard_Malec) reported

    @virginmedia we have issues with channels glitching sky one etc Comedy Central seem to glitch a lot, bbc and the like are fine, I’ve turned off the box and still the same. tech support ran tests but they show nothing wrong? I pay a lot of money for the service not for glitches.

  • StephenLaughli7 Stephen Laughlin (@StephenLaughli7) reported

    @virginmedia DO YOU ACTUALLY KNOW WHAT CUSTOMER SERVICE IS?!? BEEN TRYING TO CALL FOR OVER AN HOUR THEN GOT CUT OFF FFS ANOTHER HOUR NO DOUBT NOW! 🤬😡

  • saucyshellybaby michele pretty (@saucyshellybaby) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia every time we have bad rain, my tv service ALWAYS crashes! Yet you have the cheek to tell me it’s nothing to do with the rain!?!?!? Why do your engineers agree with me then? All the money I pay you for a rubbish service 😡😡😡😡

  • giggsy69 Paul (@giggsy69) reported

    @0Calamity @virginmedia Me too in recent weeks with Asian accent stating Internet connection issues...I have phone caller identity and they still get through.

  • SiMerrills Si Merrills (@SiMerrills) reported

    @virginmedia Yet I'm within my 14 days cancellation period. So technically I could cancel the contract at no further cost to me and sign on again with the bundle.

  • laszlowoodbine Colin Woodruff (@laszlowoodbine) reported

    @virginmedia any chance of your customer service actually being able to help at all. In total I’ve spent over seven hours over two day different occasions just trying to change my package and I’m no further forward. I left a complain nearly three weeks ago and still waiting... 😡

  • Haigh12K haighy (@Haigh12K) reported

    @virginmedia Just tried ultra hd channel, sound is still terrible. I don't know what you keep doing .
