    Virgin email been since 8am this morning. Spoke with a person they reset password still not able to login after 12 hours 😡. Not good enough Virgin Media

    @virginmedia ,is it worth trying to call customer service today, will anyone answer the call or is it more hours on hold before being cut off?

  • JackRansom4
    Jack Ransom (@JackRansom4) reported from Burton, England

    @virginmedia Wireless devices. Been going on all morning (this happens regularly but usually better after a reset - not today). Tried following the advice to check for problems in the local area, even that doesn’t work. Literally nothing more i can do.

    @virginmedia It starts to show the two fields for username and password by never completes the page load.

    The Ginger Bear (@tragic_velvet) reported from Bournemouth, England

    Called virgin media last week. Part 1 Me - I'd like to cancel please. VM - you can't, it can only be a minimum of 60 before your contract ends. Called back today (less than 60 days) Me - I'd like to cancel please VM - I can see another agent has already cancelled.

    The Internet dropping out or down to next to nothing every 10 minutes since midday wouldn’t be an issue if I didn’t have a deadline. @virginmedia remind me why I am paying for the top package.

    @virginmedia It’s not an outage, I can’t even get the admin page locally.

  • garyeatonafcb
    Gary Eaton (@garyeatonafcb) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia Whatever maintenance you performed on Monday 8th in the BH8 area has made the previous issue 100x worse than it was before. Please sort this out. £50 a month for this is a joke.

  • MikeWalker2012
    Mike Walker (@MikeWalker2012) reported from Poole, England

    Just had to put a 2nd call into @virginmedia this afternoon to sort out the problem they caused from this mornings call to them, which was to attempt to sort out issues from a previous call to them 🤬 New TV aerial installed next week and once @CityFibre are running, VM are gone!

  • BelvoirCchurch
    Jeremy Clarke (@BelvoirCchurch) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia How will we know when you have sorted out the mess at your end? Will you let me know or do I have to keep spending my money calling you listening to that awful out of tune hold music?

  • JackRansom4
    Jack Ransom (@JackRansom4) reported from Burton, England

    @virginmedia please can someone help? WFH and Wifi constantly dropping out (as per usual). Tried all the resets, still not working.

  • BelvoirCchurch
    Jeremy Clarke (@BelvoirCchurch) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia how can you hike prices for existing customers, offer deals for new customers but are unable to answer your own customer service lines? Better deals with BT, why should we pay your extortionate price for terrible service?

  • MikeWalker2012
    Mike Walker (@MikeWalker2012) reported from Poole, England

    Absolutely loath @virginmedia's over priced 360, and like their customer service, it's just rubbish, can't wait for @CityFibre to go online in our area so that I can trash VM, even if I have to take a hit when I cancel as locked into a contract at the mo, it'll be worth it!😡😠

    @virginmedia useless…..absolutely uncontactable, the worst online help assistant it has ever been my misfortune to use…

    @virginmedia Doesn’t come as a surprise that this shambles of a company has not contacted me advised they would ! When are you going to realise that we as customers are your bread and butter . Being treated this way will result in you losing me as a valued customer

  • S0B
    Simon B (@S0B) reported

    Oh, it turns out that the person I have been chatting with isn't second line support after all and they have just been mashing buttons and generally following a script. They have agreed to escalate the issue and someone will call me back within 48 hours @virginmedia

  • trishmitch
    Trish Mitchell (@trishmitch) reported

    @virginmedia So the landline seems to be working again but it would be good to know what the problem is and how it was resolved in case it happens again

  • pippaS123
    pippa sparsis (@pippaS123) reported

    @virginmedia ever thinking of going with virgin media for broadband don’t!They increase your payments mid contract with no justification, staff hang up on you when you question it and as soon as you are out of contract they bump the price up further! Shocking service!

    Magic Mirror, on the wall, who is the worst broadband service? - Over the seven jewelled hills, beyond the seventh fall, in the cottage of the Seven Dwarfs, in a place called UK, dwells @virginmedia the worst one of all!

    @virginmedia should really consider how they treat customers called today got offered a lower rate than what I was initially paying! So why have you been ripping me off?
