    What **** is blocking my internet @virginmedia , it’s in a open space, switched it off and on, stood on one leg, got full bars but still won’t let me watch a basic YouTube video on my phone

    @virginmedia what’s going on today, how do I contact the customer number 0345 454 1111 or 150 just rings out and then ends the call?

    @virginmedia As you know we are having horrendous problems with our Virgin services and I believe that @Bobby_Dazzler68 is still awaiting a call from your tech team. 1/2

    @virginmedia Seems OK now. It was Prime Video that was the problem. I think they couldn't handle all the football live streaming very well, and something had to give. Thanks 👍

    @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!

    @virginmedia WiFi down again!!!

  • DazCarson68
    Darren Carson (@DazCarson68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia I understand but surely you must have some sort of system? Purposely making it impossible to cancel is ridiculous

  • Bobby_Dazzler68
    Darren Carson (@Bobby_Dazzler68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia hi, please can you advise your complaint procedure

    @Doddstar79 @virginmedia Their service seems to be particularly bad in recent weeks...

  • timdnottingham

    @virginmedia help! I dropped my virgin TV remote in my drunk and now it won't work! What do I need to to do to get a new one?

  • 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.

  • Bobby_Dazzler68
    Darren Carson (@Bobby_Dazzler68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia I understand that but in the meantime I'm paying top whack for a sub standard service effecting BB and t.v. with no resolution date, not really good service

  • MattLaight

    @virginmedia I'm trying to get an engineer to come out as my lines but cut, I'm finding it difficult to get this arranged HELP!!!

  • JoshSwatz
    Joshua Swatman (@JoshSwatz) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia Everything you've shown me has already been done on many occasions having numerous problems with service for the past 2 years I appreciate you trying to help. There always seems to be something.

  • Dog_in_a_hat
    Wayne™ (@Dog_in_a_hat) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia So let’s think about this, I have a hub, it’s in one room, I have numerous appliances which run of Wifi, which are portable ie can be used everywhere, but you feel I should only use wired device! Not really selling your service well are you!

  • 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

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia been on live chat hold for nearly 30 minutes and it’s still saying 45 minutes wait as it did at the start. Not very good customer service since pandemic.

    Virgin Media down again in my area. Was looking forward to streaming today. Good job it’s not my livelihood. Imagine being a big streamer earning thousands a day and this happens. That’d be a big compensation bill going to #virginmedia

  • TriggerologyUK
    Triggerology (@TriggerologyUK) reported

    @virginmedia my Internet has been down for over 12 hours in the RG23 area. Can you at least tell us the issue?

  • colmbrogan76

    @irishpatriot91 Cancel your virgin media subscription

  • michaelad1997
    michaela👑💋 (@michaelad1997) reported

    Someone give us a good WiFi provider. Currently with @Hyperoptic that is shocking, TV loads every 2 minutes. Also been with @virginmedia and NEVER again, shocking connection. So yeah an actual decent recommendation would be nice

  • jacsal2244
    Jacob (@jacsal2244) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve had no WiFi for over a week now and everyone fix date gets pushed, I’ve now blew through my data like how are people meant to work and stuff??

  • eamonnhunt
    Eamonn Hunt (@eamonnhunt) reported

    @virginmedia you need to up your game guys. Two weeks of intermittent connectivity and the best you can do is tell me that I need someone to come to my home but Ill have to pay a £25 fee if I miss the booking slot. How about I charge you £25 per day for lack of service?

  • MrSonicAdvance
    Sonic (@MrSonicAdvance) reported

    @virginmedia What I found frustrating, was that if I trimmed features from my package, the monthly price would go up, and if I added additional features the monthly price would go down. Utterly perverse! The whole process left me frustrated and bemused. Lovely people on your team, though. 👍

  • tezlee1
    Terry Lee (@tezlee1) reported

    Help! there was a fault in my area, but Im told its resolved, my router is still flashing red so a full outage still exits. The call center in India had no idea what to do and kept referring to a different ongoing outage. No service but no recorded outage! Help!! @virginmedia

  • finn33
    Caroline (@finn33) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve done the trouble shooting steps. You’ve checked that I’ve paid my bills. Hence the comment about the engineer. I don’t need to give you any other details.

  • AshleySmithUK
    Ashley Smith (@AshleySmithUK) reported

    @virginmedia New contract Jul 31. Netflix completely broken, web throwing errors, and profile is showing an incorrect phone number that isn't mine. Called, used WhatsApp, zero help. Logged formal complaint and got a generic 28-day wait. Unacceptable customer service. Fix this.
