  • vmrampulla Vincenzo Rampulla (@vmrampulla) reported from Poplar, England

    @petercardwell @MichaelLCrick @virginmedia Did they hang up because they thought it was a spam call?

  • Gertie58 Sharon Hills 💗 (@Gertie58) reported from Dartford, England

    @virginmedia We have broadband but no WiFi. Rang customer services on Thursday lunchtime to be told that although nothing shows up in the service checker it' known fault and should be back today, now it's almost two days without WiFi, just want update from someone who knows what's happening

  • Miss_Toppin Miss Toppin (@Miss_Toppin) reported from Croydon, England

    @djdymond @virginmedialife @virginmedia And you can only claim compensation for no service not a ****** service that cuts out about once an hour. I can not wait to get out of this contract. I have set a timer. Years and years of broadband with other providers and I have never experienced this.

  • Richard09499442 Richard Noble (@Richard09499442) reported from South Ockendon, England

    @virginmedia im trying to sign in to my virgin account says i need to verify username in email i click verify & it says I've already verified username and so the circle of misery begins again, please help & dont say phone virgin as i cant get through or cant understand Filipino!

  • Miss_Toppin Miss Toppin (@Miss_Toppin) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia dropping service when I’m listening to Beyoncé’s new album is a hate crime.

  • harberlisalfc lisah1974 💙 💛 (@harberlisalfc) reported from Stratford, England

    @virginmedia is there an issue with broadband. Been down all morning

  • Miss_Toppin Miss Toppin (@Miss_Toppin) reported from Croydon, England

    @JessOrchardd @virginmedia I think they know their equipment is faulty and will never work properly. This is my fourth broadband provider and I have never experienced this. It was the only broadband instantly available in my new house. I really should have waited.

  • Miss_Toppin Miss Toppin (@Miss_Toppin) reported from Croydon, England

    @BlaakRichardson @virginmedia Getting out of this contract is on my summer list. Service here is definitely not on US levels for anything.

  • Guvi_Singh1 Gurvinder Randhawa (@Guvi_Singh1) reported

    @virginmedia so annoyed tonight the service is down in my area so i have to wait till 12:50am for my internet to come back online? Last week i let it slide that my connection cut off everynight at 12am for 4 consecutive nights but this has completely ruined another evening!!!!

  • SuziDo Suzanne 💙 (@SuziDo) reported

    @virginmedia I have been ringing you daily about the mobile signal having disappeared in our home for the last 4 weeks on all 4 devices. Yesterday we discovered the mast half a mile away is surrounded by trees higher than it. Full signal next to it, none just past the trees. 1/2

  • sarahellenk1 SarahellenK (@sarahellenk1) reported

    @virginmedia Can I still cancel the new mobile contract or is it too late? I only took it out because your Virgin Mobile colleagues told me I could keep my ntlworld email account with a sim only mobile deal.

  • Sskrr93 Ghost💀🇨🇩 (@Sskrr93) reported

    @virginmedia absolutely **** ffs how is my calls n internet not even working, pieces of **** swear to God I’m switching kmt

  • sarahellenk1 SarahellenK (@sarahellenk1) reported

    @virginmedia I haven’t been in touch, I crucially asked for the account not to be closed down. Nobody can send me an email on it, emails can’t be sent from it. I can still see emails in it, and hopefully find old inbox emails. But only before June 6th. Please, please don’t delete the inbox.

  • beccehjane becca (@beccehjane) reported

    @virginmedia I just want to notify you that I’m moving address, I’ve used your chatbot 3/4 times now - filling out every detail for the result to be to wait for an agent that never comes? How else can I notify you without having to ring and sit in a queue too

  • kadz_x Khadijah (@kadz_x) reported

    @virginmedia you honestly have the worst wifi in all the lands, what are people paying you for??!!

  • jtwest66 james taylor (@jtwest66) reported

    @davemorrissey64 My box is recording BBC1 for god sake, I’m expecting a phone call from my elderly mum saying there’s something wrong with her Virgin Media box. BBC have this problem every year with Wimbledon!

  • Ant_F1_Fan Ant (@Ant_F1_Fan) reported

    @virginmedia 1/2 I can never get hold of anyone on the phone nowadays, which seems to be the only way to escalate, queues are endless & I even tried the ‘leaving’ option with no success. The chat option has been useless and the actual cause of my complaint ignored.

  • dasp95 David (@dasp95) reported

    @virginmedia There was nothing to be made clear. I made the complaint @ 3pm today & was told I will get a response in 5 business days. So on top of the absolutely poor service, U have also managed to close my unresolved complaint & are now asking ME to make contact to reopen it? Unbelievable
