@virginmedia Service keeps dropping and when on its really poor signal. Gone through all the usual trouble shooting steps as this happened a few weeks back so just did everything as per last time.

Stop sending bigger bills & threatening emails @virginmedia @libertyglobal & sort things out! Account cancelled & services stopped on 18.10 but you are billing me from 19.10 despite no services! Impossible to speak to you & complaint sent not yet resolved.

@virginmedia still no working phone line no working tv service I’ve had enough of this appalling service and either this gets resolved by today or I’m going to sky as a customer of 13 years with you It’s now getting pointless having your services as they don’t work I’m paying

@virginmedia I’m being forced to contact you this way as 150 has been engaged since I tried calling yesterday. Experiencing terrible upload speeds plus problems with TiVo. Please contact me #stayconnected !!

@dazzleeds @virginmedia That’s because the router will auto connect without password to show you a diagnostics page to let you self test for issues (no good here as it’s on VM side) once service is back the router will resume normal security mode

@virginmedia hi, I’ve tried to contact via chat as I can’t call and I wait about an hour then give up, is there anyway someone can help me on here?

@virginmedia If you read back, I already mentioned that I had done do. Hence the speed test that I performed. Look, I mean no disrespect but your service is a bit of a joke. I couldn't even get through on the phone! Engaged tone for 2hours. Thankfully, things seem ok today.

@SimonHendy @virginmedia thanks Simon. I was about to try your trick but the caption has disappeared! But never fear it will come back again and then I will try once more...

@virginmedia 2/2 customer services is just 'turn it off and on again on automated message' Can't speak to anyone. May cancel direct debit if I don't get some satisfaction and action soon to resolve issues which appear common place complaints

@virginmedia anyone thinking of joining these clowns think again. No customer service. Read all of the comments under their adverts. Their advertising should be done under the Trades Description Act as it's nowhere near good enough even with the faster speeds.

@virginmedia it's not a good sign when you're complaints dept have a set message saying all staff are busy and cut you off. How bad is the service provided! #virginbroadband #poorbroadband #virginmedia

@virginmedia, I can't get through when phoning customer services! Just an engaged tone. First time in 13 years. What's going on? Trying to find out more about a broadband issue in BN1 #brighton.

@virginmedia I need to speak to someone to confirm cancellation of an installation. I am getting nowhere online as I am not an existing customer. Can you help?

@virginmedia Will I have to wait up to an hour if I dial this number before anyone answers? Also last time I spoke to someone they said they couldn’t do anything as I had raised a complaint. I just seem to go round in circles instead of getting it sorted!

@virginmedia So I’m basically no further forward & meanwhile you are continuing to send me threatening emails! Thanks for nothing! Very poor service!

Not sure if @edfenergy or @virginmedia has the worst customer service: both absolutely love to pinball from one person to another and doesn’t get anything sorted for ***** sake, wasting few hours of my time talking to 10 different people

NW6 Residents
(@nw6_residents) reported
@virginmedia Don’t worry I called your tech team and got it sorted! Apparently 1000’s of your customers email accounts have been locked due to a Spam problem so you should have informed me of that.. It would have saved me some time!

The Reverend
(@TheRevRants) reported
@virginmedia I have wasted countless hours on hold to incompetent and lying staff over the many years since Virgin took over Telewest/Blueyonder. The most serious issue, I was just told that 'Virgin didn't offer' the package that I had been sold. Not wasting any more time thanks.

Richard Haines
(@Rihaines) reported
@k_faulkner @virginmedia @jimconey Sky, new customers for sky TV & sport £41/month but for loyal customers (15+ years) it’s £70/month. Until you are forced to phone and complain and they adjust down only for it to go back up when special dispensation ends. Our commercial world values new over existing customers

(@Jetblast787) reported
@virginmedia @ruskin147 I'm facing the same issue in the same area; it's impossible to use the web now as it keeps cutting out and reconnecting every 20 seconds. Only light on the router is the solid white light; resetting the hub also has no effect on the issue.

Yann Mainier
(@ymainier) reported
@virginmedia Sure: my internet connection is on and off since yesterday 5:00. I've restarted my hub and make sure that everything is wired correctly following the steps on the help site. Service was saying that everything was right until 10:30, when it wasn't the case

@virginmedia I need someone that can enable my virgin media email accounts. I am fed up with explaining to customer services who do not understand what I am talking about! I am also fed up with my email continuously being disabled for no reason!! I need access ASAP!!
