    Darren Carson (@Bobby_Dazzler68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia I understand that takes 28 days which will be 3 months with sub standard service, not exactly a quick resolution

  • NickFitz
    Nick Fitzsimons (@NickFitz) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @PreetBharara @ZellaQuixote Around 2009 or 2010. I had a computer with a modem that could send faxes that was just about working, and I had to get @virginmedia to send an engineer out to fix my landline. The landline broke again a month or two later and hasn’t worked since, though they still bill me for it.

    @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

    @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?

    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.

    @virginmedia Not the only thing slow is it!

  • SmallPaulDJ
    smallpauldj (@SmallPaulDJ) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia I'm paying over 50 pounds just for 100mg broadband already! Why can a new customer get TV etc to for just 30? Conveniently the phone lines all seem off.

    @virginmedia are you ever gonna help me!!

  • SteveRiches4
    Safetypenfold (@SteveRiches4) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia router not working, of course not your equipment has to be mine. Why have to wait 48 hours to phone again if still not working. It’s arrogant to think we know nothing about IT.

  • SteveRiches4
    Safetypenfold (@SteveRiches4) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia Still not working, still no contact from #virginmedia. If still no contact tomorrow, will have to change supplier in time for Christmas. Can you help?

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

    @virginmedia hi, I know you are dealing with t.v. issues but I need to talk to someone regards a missing mobile phone that Yodel have lost, will this be possible?

  • juanfelipe1
    John Wright (@juanfelipe1) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @simonnread @virginmedia I'm having the same issue. For the period of lockdown I could broadly rely on the signal to my home office. The last 2/3 months I haven't and I am constantly having to tether my mobile at my expense. The router hasn't moved and neither has my office. The service has just worsened

  • SteveRiches4
    Safetypenfold (@SteveRiches4) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia No. I’m done with text, on line and anything except talking to someone. You’ve had the opportunity using the bot, Twitter and online support, now we need to communicate in person. #realpeople

  • nameez_n
    Nam_n (@nameez_n) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia my broadband has been going down frequently past few days. Tried restarting the WiFi router, still the same. Connection goes down for few mins and the comes back. It’s frustrating #virginmediadown #internetdow

    David Richards (@ddrbowella) reported from Leicestershire, England

  • ddrbowella
    David Richards (@ddrbowella) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia The service keep cutting out. And having to reboot 3/4 times a week. If no one comes and fix the fault. I will cancel everything and go to the ombudsman to claim back all the money paid for a fully working service.

    @virginmedia Hi VM, We need some help. My iron tripped out our board. Everything as back to normal apart from our internet, to and landline. You said you could send an engineer at 6pm tonight. My husband has just had surgery and we need our connection. We also need a new hub.

    @Starlink Sorry but much rather stick with @virginmedia They've never done me wrong. They rarely go down AND I'm getting faster speeds at less price than your top package.

    Heinz Beanz (@Delveyboy) reported

    Why @virginmedia should not use foreign call centres. Me: my contract is up on th 17th September and I want to cancel. Virgin: ok no problem Me gets an email: your service will be disconnected on the 17th August. FFS.

    Hey @virginmedia, are there issues in my area again? Broadband went off suddenly yet service status suggests there are no issues?
