  • Nica Nicole Mezzasalma (@Nica) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia Got a message from your team saying our local issues had been fixed yesterday, and yet the service was down this morning for over an hour and it’s down again now.

  • claire_m_willia Claire Williams (@claire_m_willia) reported from Gravesend, England

    @virginmedia your customer service is an absolute joke won't ever be using you again . Worst customer service ever !!!!!!!!!

  • anna_fran Anna Parry (@anna_fran) reported from Bromley, England

    Anyone know why the broadband is down on @virginmedia in the BR3 area. This is the 3rd time in less than a week. It’s starting to get very boring, not to mention inconvenient

  • AndyGixxer46 The Chief (@AndyGixxer46) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia The complaint was about my address in the first place, I was advised you didn't have any forwarding address for me now your saying you have multiple.

  • drummerJ83 Jay Bourley (@drummerJ83) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia Hi thanks already tried lots of this and we've only had the problem for past couple of days so I can't see why it would be an issue with the Ethernet cable or positioning.

  • bexhoops Wayne Sumner (@bexhoops) reported from Crayford, England

    @rajeevdatta @RuislipR @virginmedia My problem is...I live right at the furthest point from the bt exchange so by the Time it gets to me it’s as slow as hell..that’s why I went virgin...expensive

  • gorgeousuk anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Or maybe that’s wishful thinking. Anyway. We will be considering our options over the weekend and I don’t think we will be staying with VM. Bad service is too regular now

  • gorgeousuk anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia The deeper check did not work because the internet is down and therefore the check did not work......it’s just so pathetic really

  • StefanANASTASE3 Stefan ANASTASESCU (@StefanANASTASE3) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia hi , have been trying to contact you for the last month. Each time been waiting for 25-30 minutes with no answer. Today after 10min someone answered but said cannot access my account. When I insisted she needed to make a note she cut me off. Awful!

  • gorgeousuk anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia When you are using your data in your own house so often, have Netflix, Now and Amazon Prime you pay for that you can’t even use when Broadband are down, you have to ask, what the HELL am I doing with a company that can’t provide a basic bloody service.

  • gorgeousuk anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia That would imply that I had faith in your services & belief that you cared about your customers. I know from the past that this is not the case. I have already checked and this problem is supposed to be fixed by 3pm, it has been ongoing since 8am. It really is tedious and boring

  • JohnJohnb471 John Briggs (@JohnJohnb471) reported from London, England

    Just want to say after being a long standing @virginmobile and @virginmedia customer for many years I had it with their appalling customer service and excessive charges. Don’t use them people they don’t deserve our business

  • MrGarySmith Gary Brian Smith (@MrGarySmith) reported from Dartford, England

    Try and do a help chat on @virginmedia connect app I bet you will still be there the next day waiting for a response or if lucky had one reply 12 hours later asking for you name

  • sheila_lakey Sheila Lakey (@sheila_lakey) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia Due to changed circumstances I need to transfer WiFi into my name. Emailed acc transfer form with I.D on 28/4 - no response. Called you on 22/5 (cost me £22. 26) told this would be chased. On 16/6 Contacted on line chat - useless so called at further cost still no help!

  • StefanANASTASE3 Stefan ANASTASESCU (@StefanANASTASE3) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia Hi it’s with Media. Need to cancel subscription to Sky Premier channels and that requires 30day notice, which I haven’t been able to do for the last 30days...and it keeps rolling into another month and so on...

  • PlexNetflix Martin Phillp (@PlexNetflix) reported from Camberwell, England

    @Emily_Benn @virginmedia I use their mobile service, but wouldn't touch the cable with a bargepole. It's oversubscribed in London.

  • drummerJ83 Jay Bourley (@drummerJ83) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia Hello, I've tried rebooting the hub and it has made it worse. There was nothing listed on the site as a problem for my area. I can't get through anything on Netflix without 4,5 maybe 6 stops to buffer.

  • JennyIllmann Jenny Illmann (@JennyIllmann) reported from London, England

    Lately Virgin Media hasn’t been very good at all. I never used to have issues with it.

  • sohanlon07 Shane (@sohanlon07) reported

    @virginmedia I spoke to your customer services at 1158 this morning. Was promised a call back from an engineer within 4 hours. 8.5 hours later still nothing.

  • Hammer11Run RunHammer11 (@Hammer11Run) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve spoken to 7 staff today! community support should not be dealing with virgin code failure & cancelled packages after engineer had been? Call centre had all my notes and data for package, community forum wouldn’t be able to deal with this

  • StripeyMiata Jonathan McCormack (@StripeyMiata) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks, no problem changing the payment day as well, is that something I can do in the portal?

  • FilmsQuirky QuirkyFilms (@FilmsQuirky) reported

    Hi @virginmedia Why can't I play my personal library of films/TV shows from my Virgin box: Home --> YouTube without the screen freezing within the first 5 seconds. It works fine on all my other devices (ios, windows, Android) on the same home network.

  • KJL99812287 K.J.L (@KJL99812287) reported

    @virginmedia you are the fkin WORST internet provider ever. If you're connected your speeds are dog ****, drops every 5 mins and even worse customer service.

  • KJL99812287 K.J.L (@KJL99812287) reported

    @__wsl @virginmedia Don't go with Virgin bro. There internet is fkin **** drops all the time and can't get through to anyone

  • KieMc6 Kieran McCalla🇯🇲 (@KieMc6) reported

    Virgin media around my whole area is down, can't watch TV, can't use my PlayStation, nuen. Im vex.

  • TomSarduy Tomas Ramirez Sarduy (@TomSarduy) reported

    @virginmedia I did, I don't really think it will help. I will start recording my network logs and get an early disconnect.

  • TomEntract hiiamtom (@TomEntract) reported

    @virginmedia It's about the fact that a day before my install date I was informed that it was being delayed by over 2 weeks, meaning I will have been without Broadband and TV for over a month since signing up to VM. Impossible to speak to anyone who can help. Should've stuck with Sky

  • travellingbex Bex Allen (@travellingbex) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    4yrs with @virginmedia never had a problem. But now that I do their 'customer service' sucks, endless cycles of talking to bots on their website, or being on hold for hours on the phone! 3 days of this just trying to get the Internet I'm paying for! #frustrated #virginmedia
