    @virginmedia ... put through to multiple people, had to explain situation again, promised manager Paul would call me in 2 hrs, wasted Sunday waiting for the call which never came, followed up again in eve, on hold 40 mins, promised Paul would call and he never did.

    Joshua Roberts (@DJJoshuaRoberts) reported from Norwich, England

    @virginmedia Season’s greetings. An engineer has replaced the cable in the road with a temporary one and it works but it’s super slow, definitely not fibre quality! Any idea when this might be improved? J

    @TumbleweedBob @virginmedia Sorry to jump on your thread, but I'm also having issues with @virginmedia who are awful at customer service and I'd just like to cancel my contract. Tried to do this morning but webchat decided to end and I've heard nothing back.

  • LaGodden
    Frances Godden (@LaGodden) reported from Norwich, England

    @virginmedia It was. I called Sunday 1040, promised Paul would call me before 1320; he did not. That was nearly a week ago and I’ve had no contact, despite three follow-ups by me via phone, online complaint form submission x2 and this. Seriously unimpressed.

    @dunleavy138 @NOWTV @virginmedia I've never had virgin so can't really answer about them...but the NowTV box with Entertainment package seems to do for D. It has comedy, movies, Sky channels Etc., and it's no contract and far cheaper than alternatives.

    @virginmedia Been having issues for 4 days if that helps. When press a recorded program it just goes to that blank screen

    stacia briggs (@womaninblack) reported from Norwich, England

    @virginmedia TV down in NR4 and the suggested reconnection date is December 29. Seems a long time? I’m aware no time is a good time for this to happen but Boxing Day is a REALLY bad time. Will this reflect in my (vast) bill?

  • thomasashman64
    Ash Ashman (@thomasashman64) reported from Norwich, England

    @jongaunt @virginmedia They keep not taking my direct debit out then charge me for not paying .. their customer service is appalling no one speaks good English.. in rented accommodation so cant change provider

  • AndyCarolan
    Andy Carolan (@AndyCarolan) reported from Old Catton, England

    @NickCantle @virginmedia I know what you mean, they used to be reasonable but within the last year or so, there’s been a big change in their customer care, or lack of.

  • AndyCarolan
    Andy Carolan (@AndyCarolan) reported from Old Catton, England

    @virginmedia Yes, the speeds are making out at about 94mbps… I used to get up to about 240Mbps. If for some reason those speeds are no longer possible, how about my service plan being changed to reflect this?

  • DrS_Reynolds
    Shirley Reynolds #FBPE (@DrS_Reynolds) reported from Norwich, England

    @virginmedia It’s not relevant what the service page tells us about this area - the problem is that we have had no internet since Sunday and want to know when we will be reconnected.

    @virginmedia NR1 4BS if need to check, it’s not letting me report the problem

    Jon P Watson Photography (@thejpwphotos) reported from Norwich, England

    The service I've had from @virginmedia has been absolutely awful! If I treated my customers this way I would be out of business. Complaint has been dragging on for 2 months now, with loads of empty promises. Now I'm being messed about with my broadband service not working ->

  • FutJacques
    Jacques (@FutJacques) reported from Norwich, England

    Virgin media are awful. Wi-Fi should’ve been installed on 19th of August, and the full installation has been pushed back to past November despite still paying for the Wi-Fi. Shocking.

    @virginmedia trying to get a new remote for V6 box.Been through all the online stuff and now all through the 📞 'Customer Service' process and have decided to hang up after being on hold for 10 mins. About 45 mins of my morning wasted. How difficult can you make it!

  • DrS_Reynolds
    Shirley Reynolds #FBPE (@DrS_Reynolds) reported from Norwich, England

    @virginmedia @Virgin It’s fair to say we expect (much) better service than this

  • sockformation
    Tim (@sockformation) reported from Norwich, England

    @virginmedia I’m trying to install my broadband, but don’t have the right socket at home. I was told I wouldn’t need an engineer which is why I booked it in now. Also, my password isn’t working so I can’t do anything. Please help because at the moment I’ll be paying for nothing

  • LaGodden
    Frances Godden (@LaGodden) reported from Norwich, England

    @virginmedia I am at work!! I’ve already wasted hours trying to get you to fix this issue and even acknowledge my complaints. I can’t use webchat whilst at work!!

  • speeednet
    John Quinlan (@speeednet) reported

    @virginmedia I have had a rubbish service for months. Late last year an engineer knocked on the door and said because of a technical problem he had to replace the feed to my house, later informed me he couldn't because of a problem with the ducting. Fast forward to March 26, I get a text saying he is coming 16/03 no show, no explanation no apology. Next text says he will be there 27/04 no show no apology. The last three days the modem/router reboots about every five minutes, phoned again on Sunday explained and the techy advised me can't do anything until 20th June. This is not acceptable, I have been trying for two days to get onto your site, I am told you are sending a confirmation email which never arrives, subsequently I cannot contact the company. Just so that you know I have had enough and will be looking to replace the service ASAP. If I have any contract outstanding, I will see you in court.

  • PeteBradders
    Pete Bradbury (@PeteBradders) reported

    @virginmedia I have been a customer of yours for 25 years and upon the most recent contract renewal, you denied the package I opted for because it was for 'new customers only' and then went on to charge me with a bill for £124! A colossal 34% increase! Loyalty means nothing!

    Samina Masood (@Samina_masood3) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for responding but there is no sense of urgency in that message ‘respond as soon as possible’ & ‘resolve issue as quick as possible’; have you read the T&Cs & your legal obligations?

    @virginmedia absolutely terrible wifi this afternoon this is not the service I’m paying for !!! Really fed up of this

  • loldiplo
    Diplo (@loldiplo) reported

    @virginmedia Do you not think the first thing I checked was your website for checked outages and all you tell me to do is book an engineer which you then tell me I have too wait another 2 days to get one??? So that’s 3 days of service you’re not providing of which I pay for.

  • jonno153
    Shakermaker (@jonno153) reported

    @virginmedia hello, I’ve been having WiFi problems for some time now. I already have a WiFi pod in the home but if I move it then we get another dead spot. I have called about this but was told that I need to have a speed test below 30mbps.
