    @JoshPainter1998 @virginmedia Yeah, I’ve had intermittent packet loss / instability issues for weeks now. Affects my esports gaming which is on live television, great advert for them. Have had five deadlines now for when their loca work will be finished and problems sorted. Literally baffled.

    @virginmedia @stephen_twitt Good luck calling that customer service number. @virginmedia should try calling themselves

  • Just_Woodbridge
    Justine (@Just_Woodbridge) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @virginmedia I thought my issue was resolved yesterday, but today I’ve had an email saying something different. I text the number again, at 11.28am, the bot replied but nothing since then?!

  • AJobTracker

    Virgin Engineer came to our house to adjust our Virgin media signal saying it was 'too high'. It was a bit too technical for me.

  • OllieToogood
    Ollie Toogood (@OllieToogood) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia why is it impossible to speak with anyone who can help? I keep wasting hours of my time on hold to no avail

  • sszmidt199
    Stephen Szmidt (@sszmidt199) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @RogerProtzBeer @virginmedia This is totally unacceptable. When resolved ask for compensation for loss of service, inconvenience & your time. Keep records. Raise an official complaint following their process. If unhappy with their response complain to CISA, their ombudsman. Consider switching. Good luck!

  • covrules
    Jamie Nairn (@covrules) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    Terrible service by @virginmedia - trying to cancel my mobile contract & get a PAC to transfer my number. I’ve been waiting over a week & today when I got through to someone, after on hold 26mins, got cut off - but they didn’t ring me back! Wonder why I want to leave them?!?! 😡

  • bleedingmoody

    @virginmedia Done all that a hundred times and checked all the cables it’s still crap!!

  • DiscoEquinox
    Equinox Disco (@DiscoEquinox) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp The problem is with getting through on the phone or live chat. It’s very easy to add or upgrade services but god help you if you want to remove any services or leave. I was on hold for over two hours last night only to be cut off. I’ve been connected to live chat since 17:43 0901

  • Borochubster
    Al Murray Jnr🔴 (@Borochubster) reported

    @MartinSLewis Virgin media have a call back team. You actually have to cancel your contract, then they call you back within 2 weeks and that's when you get the best deals.

  • j_henderson__
    JHenderson (@j_henderson__) reported

    @virginmedia You know, it would be nice if there were some responsibilty taken for the poor customer service rather than some AI generated “ah well sorry about that”. You’re a service provider, and the service is crap.

  • sodiumlights
    Sodium (@sodiumlights) reported

    So, my @virginmedia hub died on Thursday. Finally worked out how to call them yesterday. Today a guy comes out to fix it but can't. Just got a message saying they'll be here on TUESDAY. Until then, no internet or TV. And no changes to the heating. Or the cat flap...

  • dannog_8
    Dan (@dannog_8) reported

    Just about had it with both O2 and Virgin Media. Both cost a fortune and get an absolutely abysmal service!

  • argyledavros
    Dave Warrilow (@argyledavros) reported

    Massive problems with @virginmedia in #Southend. Broadband hasn't been working properly for over a week. Service checker keeps changing excuse, so you can't book and engineer. Tried calling on hold for half an hour then cut off. Shocking service.

  • EgalGeordie
    Egalitarian Geordie (@EgalGeordie) reported

    @nftholbein @csljohnkirby @O2 Yea I switched to EE after nearly 20 years with O2. They seem to have taken every awful part of Virgin Media since the merger. Would never trust them again.

  • fatscholes76

    @virginmedia intermittent service in the area yet no sign of any engineers sorting issues. How long will this go on?

  • lennylaw
    Percival Merganser (@lennylaw) reported

    Really good point from Steve. 0345 454 1111 How did I find the number? Went to the “accessibility support” tab on the My Virgin Media app. Always imagine you have a disability. Did they ask? Did they arse. Goes straight to the helpline.

    @SeanMoy98947674 @bartleyj49 Not just matt cooper, virgin media are as bad. Every night you turn on the telly hes the first ginit you'd see. Biased, bitter little man

    @virginmedia we are getting no internet and the app says it’s our kits connection but that is all good and still won’t work after following your steps? Any help or updates?
