    Can someone @virginmedia please help. Your helpline is an absolute joke. Cant do what’s required online as it states there’s a problem and I have to phone. It’s a joke. Free box upgrade as they discontinue mine and it’s like running the gauntlet. Jokers

    @virginmedia The base light is a very light green, that’s on all the time. The Wi-fi light is green and keeps flashing. I’ve been running diagnostics checks for some months now, and it always says there’s a connection problem with the wi-fi.

  • Flissej Fliss James (@Flissej) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia please can you provide me with a number or link to web chat so I can change my broadband package. The website links just keep leading to ‘help pages’.

  • NeilClark1912 Neil Clark (@NeilClark1912) reported from Eltham, England

  • Sergios_13 Sergio (@Sergios_13) reported from Paddington, England

    @virginmedia Hi, thanks for your reply. We keep having the same problems with connection over and over. For the last months, I have called at least 3-4 times / the calls are charged. I expected from your side to offer services to inspect the connection and router. Thank you

  • dhall1ootball Darren Hall (@dhall1ootball) reported from Biggin Hill, England

    @virginmedia @macsean14 Are you actually for real, hes told you about his lengthy problems and how long he’s been on the phone to get through and you pass him off with another dial up so he can ‘waste’ more of his family time to call you numpties back #shockingcustomerservice #watchdog #virginmedia

  • PeterTo24241625 Peter Thomas (@PeterTo24241625) reported

    @virginmedia I ordered a 5 m extension lead for my phone to router as landline service is ending .I phoned up this morning to confirm its delivery I was told it was being delivered today .The cable extension did not arrive I just received the fibre phone adaptor which I already have

  • XxNaidaxX Sinead 🥂 (@XxNaidaxX) reported

    @virginmedia most of my recordings have been deleted or gone missing of my box. We have 6 still there, but the rest have gone. My box crashed this morning and wouldn't turn on, I've managed to get it back on now but found this issue. Can someone help?

  • graemefowler Graeme Fowler (@graemefowler) reported

    That was a frustrating afternoon. Trying to reduce the costs of my out-of-contract @virginmedia services using their online chat was an object lesson in how not to do customer service. It was so much simpler speaking on the phone to someone in Cardiff, as per the NTL days.

  • katiekins1979 Katie (@katiekins1979) reported

    @virginmedia But 23% ???? Is every customer having a 23% increase from April?

  • GerardH93400488 Ger Hayes. (@GerardH93400488) reported

    @LaurenceTheBird Virgin media close to being as bad as rte now.

  • SaraNround sara round (@SaraNround) reported

    @virginmedia surprise surprise or maybe not such a surprise…no landline…reduced tv services, cut off twice when seeking help….after months of issues, engineer visits, new hub and multiple complaints I’m still paying for a service you are failing to provide

  • graemefowler Graeme Fowler (@graemefowler) reported

    @virginmedia Seriously considering cancelling now, but they have the ultimate broadband offering here as there's no FTTP available. Sucks.

  • xslinky09x lurkio (@xslinky09x) reported

    @SkullyRox @virginmedia You need to ring them and they will get you a cheaper price and if you threaten to leave then will give you even better price. I got mine down to £79 and they were going to put it to over £100. I can send you there WhatsApp number cause that’s what I use. I hate talking on phone

  • blockchainchin Blockchainchin (@blockchainchin) reported

    @virginmedia Who can I speak to regarding the money you’ve owed me for over two years now. Tried logging complaint just got ref number and no reply Customer services haven’t helped and it’s getting to the point where I may have to seek legal support for this issue if not resolved

  • bramptonowl Jill Carr (@bramptonowl) reported

    @virginmedia @TheBHF @O2 Very disappointed with Customer Services-making promises that are not fulfilled and now being ignored on WhatsApp. As a long standing customer I am not happy-not getting the service I am paying for.
