  • CharlesB2T Charles Brittain (@CharlesB2T) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia We are happy, now that we're back online, but it was thanks to the two charming and communicative engineers working away in Burgess Hill that saved the day; not just because they'd fixed the issue, but they'd also told me what was going on.

  • abcomuk ABCOM - IT Solutions (@abcomuk) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia 40 minutes on the phone to tech support and still no one is answering... where is the uk broadband help desk please?

  • richardscovell 🏳️‍🌈 #SociallyDistancingRick 🏳️‍🌈 (@richardscovell) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    Just experienced #unethical behaviour from @virginmedia #coercing a customer, accept £20 and close a complaint or you can take it further and not accept the £20. Failure to be transparent and communicate effectively across all departments about charges #poorcustomerservice

  • flowersxxx Tracy S (@flowersxxx) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia no internet I'm in the bn3 area any help please.?

  • schstsc1 @megyesischwartz (@schstsc1) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia 45 minutes to get through to a person. Told them I wanted to leave. They put me on hold and cut me off! Goodbye Virgin - Hello Sky (the @skytv package is £70 cheaper). @virginmedia customer service is a disgrace

  • Bradley16535324 BradleyGeorge2001 (@Bradley16535324) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia RIGHT SERIOUSLY YOU NEED TO SORT OUT YOU INTERNET THAT YOUR PROVIDING BECAUSE IT IS AN ABSOLUTE EMBARRASSMENT, it is a waste of money paying for this appalling service we are receiving you don’t Evan deserve a half star review. SORT IT OUT AND SORT IT OUT NOW!!!!

  • 5waysRichard Richard Williams (@5waysRichard) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia It was a call and it wasn’t easy to hear what they were saying. Something about having detected that my internet was slow when doing online banking. It sounded very much like the “We are from BT open reach” scam so I said I would call them back.

  • NicholaHarcourt Niki hardcore (@NicholaHarcourt) reported from Shoreham-by-Sea, England

    @virginmedia absolutely disgusted with the service

  • VictoriaNangle Vicky Nangle (@VictoriaNangle) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia After over 3 hours and on my 3rd agent I managed to report it. The call was a scam, saying that my wifi was too slow and trying to get to my laptop. When I twigged and refused they became abusive and threatened physical abuse.

  • JumpstartUK JUMPSTART (@JumpstartUK) reported from Sompting, England

    9am on Thursday morning. Day one of second lockdown. Virgin Media is down. #virginmedia @virginmedia get it sorted. I’m in Worthing.

  • CarolePaton Carole Paton (@CarolePaton) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I eventually got a human to speak to after a very dodgy response to my tweets asking for all my bank details. Issue sorted.

  • 5waysRichard Richard Williams (@5waysRichard) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia hi, an engineer called out of the blue and claimed to be from Virgin Media working on my broadband. How can I tell if it’s not a scam? And if it’s not, how do I reach him? He gave the general customer service number

  • VictoriaNangle Vicky Nangle (@VictoriaNangle) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been trying to message with your help section for 3 hours now - had 2 agents introduce themselves then disappear. All I want to do is let them know the details of someone pretending to be Virgin who tried to scam me then threatened me this morning. Not good.

  • TwistieTalk Steve Twist (@TwistieTalk) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia What's the best time to contact your Customer Service team?

  • garypleece Gary Pleece (@garypleece) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    Hello @virginmedia WiFi down in BN1. Send help. Don’t know if you’ve noticed but we’ve been asked to WFH. Current stays: unable to.

  • fordie Mark Ford (@fordie) reported from West Worthing, England

    Anyone else in BN12 having broadband issues on @virginmedia?

  • garypleece Gary Pleece (@garypleece) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia Just back up after 4 hours down...

  • DrSTun STun (@DrSTun) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia please help. Saying the password to login to my WiFi is incorrect. But it's not. Please help.

  • CharlesB2T Charles Brittain (@CharlesB2T) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia I am bitterly disappointed that you have only been able to provide a broadband service for a week and now there's nothing. My work relies on fast reliable broadband. If this doesn't get fixed this Monday, I'll be seeking another provider.

  • RGNJonathan Jonathan O'Keeffe (@RGNJonathan) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia Don’t have an Ethernet cables. My phone actually uses 5G if signal is weak so it was likely my data not WiFi

  • SimaxPep Pep Simax (@SimaxPep) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for your response. Unfortunately it’s really not good enough and I know others have had the same issue about not being told. Your sales person convinced us to stay but didn’t at any point tell us about the recordings being wiped. We should have gone to Sky

  • hannah1281 janet jalil (@hannah1281) reported

    @virginmedia Shocking lack of customer service from Virgin Media today. I have been on hold for 58 minutes to speak to someone about the appalling low speeds I am getting on fibre broadband. Simply not good enough! Will be changing my provider after 8 years!

  • joe_ch1p Joe Chip (@joe_ch1p) reported

    @virginmedia @BIG_McQuill You saying down detector isn't reliable is like Boris Johnson saying Michael Gove is a liar. It might be true or it might not but we're all still screwed.

  • SamWest63 Sam West (@SamWest63) reported

    @virginmedia It’s absolutely shocking as a customer I can’t get any help from Virgin Media. I’ve tried contacting customer services and they aren’t accepting any calls due to high volume of calls and demands. Their online chat doesn’t respond to customers either.

  • caflyergirl Triple G Unit (@caflyergirl) reported

    @virginmedia we are moving abroad and I'm trying to arrange cancelling our service AND returning our equipment. Online chat feature not working & I've been on hold for over 30 minutes by phone. Is there an easier way to do this?

  • AngDuffy1 Ang Duffy (@AngDuffy1) reported

    @virginmedia are there issues in postcode area Sa1?

  • Harryafc Harry (@Harryafc) reported

  • LukeVocey Luke Voce (@LukeVocey) reported

    @virginmedia been on hold to customer services for over 30 minutes now. why? #customerservice

  • lisa_cara19 Lisa 🌸 #Freeple 💜 (@lisa_cara19) reported

    @virginmedia Two months of constant calls and emails and still no resolution. Promise a call back but never do, all I am trying to do is upgrade!

  • unstoppable_85 mumrah (@unstoppable_85) reported

    @virginmedia been lied to by agents over chat service, have proof. Suddenly your chat service is not responding as i want to escalate & now an hour on the phone with an incompetent advisor who has been searching for a manager for an hour. Need contact before i get legal advice
