    @virginmedia my mum’s landline has a fault - no dialling tone. She’s been on hold but can’t get through to a human to report it. We have both tried to report it via her online account but cannot access it. And yes she has wiggled her sockets! Help!

  • Paul_W_Young The JodFather (@Paul_W_Young) reported from Corby, England

    Thankyou @virginmobile for threatening legal action & forcing me to pay £135 for a mobile phone service we thought was cancelled. No calls/data used since March but you insisted. Net result is you’ve lost a loyal @virginmedia customer too. All services cancelled. Good riddance🖕

  • ParsonsLinzi Linzi Parsons (@ParsonsLinzi) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia I’ve spent the last 3 hours trying to communicate with someone via text about some charges that are due to virgin not setting a cap on my 11 year old step daughters account as requested! Service is awful

  • Wee_Linz_ 👸🏻 Queen Wee Linz 👸🏻 (@Wee_Linz_) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia Hi, as a family, all 4 of us are having problems with the mobile network. This has been ongoing for a few weeks and despite assurances that the problem is being fixed, it clearly isn't. This is frustrating and we are not getting the service we're paying for.

  • Super_Sonic2010 Sonia Mathieson (@Super_Sonic2010) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia I have no doubt you'll be on it. Been quite some time now. Just wondered if there was an end to issues in sight.

  • rickypaige121 Richard Paige (@rickypaige121) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia what the **** is going on in Corby !Your system keeps failing!! Are you going to give us a refund for every day a so called cable uninterrupted system fails ?? Sky is looking much better after the 20th time in 2 years that Virgin has failed !! Not worth recommending

  • yogi7592 Yv (@yogi7592) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia it’s sad that you are still using covid as an excuse not to provide any technical help. Done everything your website tells me to but still have a issue with my broadband. How do I speak to someone about it. Not very happy.

  • rosstarbard rosstarbard (@rosstarbard) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @Alex_FeisBryce @virginmedia Apparently problems in the area won't be fixed until 3PM today. Spoke to the helpline

  • Mum2fifteen Donna Ireland (@Mum2fifteen) reported from Stamford, England

    @virginmedia any known issues with broadband in SK postcodes? My internet isn’t working

  • rosstarbard rosstarbard (@rosstarbard) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia internet has been down for the last half hour, no wifi or wired connection. Is there a problem in the Leicester area?

  • Super_Sonic2010 Sonia Mathieson (@Super_Sonic2010) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia Thank you. Virgin are aware, message just says issue identified and working on it. Internet is vital for work, so wondering if a fix is in sight

    @virginmedia RE: complaint no. C-310122692 about incorrect billing whilst leaving VM. Received email that the complaint is resolved we've "had a chat" but nobody has spoken to me and the incorrect bills are still there. How do I start independent adjudication ? Deadlock letter ?

    @Objective_Read @virginmedia I had a similiar problem, sent a letter on 23rd of February but they apparently never received it! Also they make it so hard to communicate, and when you do they speak over you trying to offer you unwanted deals..

  • PhilJBowers Phil Bowers (@PhilJBowers) reported

    @virginmedia Hello Virgin Media, seems to be a fault in Newcastle-Under-Lyme ST5 area with your broadband, used the service checker and doesn't give an estimated time it'll be fixed - any ideas when it'll be back on?

  • JoshWally Josh (@JoshWally) reported

    @virginmedia FYI WiFi calling does work on Pixel devices when using a physical virgin mobile SIM. The issue was specifically with the eSIM
