    @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

    Why does virgin media wifi become **** after 11:30pm? Absolutely shite man

  • 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.

    @bennmarkpotter @virginmedia Getting a issue of only 2mbps when I’m paying for 200mbps. It’s a joke. I’m gonna move to sky they guarantee 60mbps or your money back. U should do the same 👍

  • garycross
    Gary Cross (@garycross) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia why advertise your call centre being open til 8PM if you're hanging up on me at 19:10? Having issues with my TV and your online tools aren't doing anything.

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

    @virginmedia This isn’t a problem just today, we have had the same issues for nearly a month, can you at least tell us what the prob is, we might even understand!! Please fix or refund. Lk fwd to your call.

    @grayomtb @plusnethelp These broadband providers should be made to repay people for such poor service... I have constant issues with @virginmedia ...

  • 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?

    @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

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia hi, could you advise the best method to speak to someone regards a request for return of kit after house move? Chat bot does not help, need to contact an agent thanks

  • 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.

  • garycross
    Gary Cross (@garycross) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia Spoken with two different agents and got teo different answers. One said there was a known fault and the other said the opposite. Second agent claimed he booked me a virtual help call hut nobody called. I've ended up having to book my own engineer visit. Nobody has been helpful.

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

    @virginmedia 909041904.26 le35ge .Call a 7 days ago about internet problems. Told we was getting a new router box and booster box. Nothing came and still getting a lot of problems. I want some to come out. Otherwise i will cancel the whole dam thing.

    @virginmedia could really do with some help with my internet and TV chaps. DM me.

  • LuetchfordClare
    clare luetchford (@LuetchfordClare) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia could you explain to me why over 20 years of being a customer of yours counts for nothing you’d rather lose a loyal customer

  • 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.

    Christopher Hallick (@ChrisLonelyguy) reported from Leicestershire, England

    Come on @virginmedia I'm again being plagued by #fake #scam #fraud calls on landline. I'm not registered anywhere and on blocked lists. There's auto diallers i believe but operators should be cracking down on this.

    Hey @virginmedia we just took out a new contract with you, had our box fitted on Friday, reprogrammed on Saturday due to an outage. Now we've just gone over 24 hours with no internet or TV yet again and the fix times constantly being pushed back. What's your cancellation period?

  • AndyYates680
    Andy (@AndyYates680) reported

    Did I miss something @virginmedia ? Your listings today say that PMQs on @GBNEWS at noon is between Rishi Sunak and Sir Keir Starmer Did I sleep for 2 years? Am I paying big bucks for this service?

  • Sir_Moanalot_
    Sir Moanalot (@Sir_Moanalot_) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia They are awful. I’ve been stuck with an exorbitantly priced rolling contract because I plan to move house soon and have no idea if wherever I move to will have VM cable in the street. Zero reward for customer loyalty. When I do finally move, @virginmedia can get in the bin.

  • LouiseMensch
    Louise Bagshawe (@LouiseMensch) reported

    Wow. Shockingly bad by @virginmedia. Lying to @BenLeo that he needed a new contract in order to get equipment repaired, misselling him the contract with a box that didn’t work (admitted by them) and then telling him he wasn’t allowed to go back to his old contract.

  • kellyj70
    Kelly Turner (@kellyj70) reported

    @virginmedia I am going round in circles. I’ve DM’d you several times and NEVER get a reply. Terrible customer service.

  • ollyp3
    Ollyp3 (@ollyp3) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Wait - you have to stay on a contract or cancel. Why can't they just cancel what you were sold, give you the compensation (which they are legally required to on Ofcom auto compensation anyway for lost connectivity) and fix your service urgently. I cannot believe you are being held to a missed contract without the perks of said contract! Apalling

    @IamCarrieagain @virginmedia The BNC (round) cables are the same, and the ethernet cables are the same. The only real issue you might have is changing your WiFi password on each device you have, and swapping the power brick depending on where you have your router.

  • LongshanksE10
    Richard Astley (@LongshanksE10) reported

    @virginmedia Hey I was told earlier by customer services on IM that an engineer will come to fix or replace my WiFi hub on Friday, but I haven’t received any email or text confirmation. Will one be forthcoming?

  • Benleo
    Ben Leo (@Benleo) reported

    I have released all audio tapes of my many calls since April 30 and will be collating them for the nation to see how @virginmedia treat their customers and breach consumer law.

    @hamsterpranks @virginmedia Virgin - sucking the life out of humanity since inception. Thank **** I got rid years ago.
