    @virginmedia hi, how to I make a complaint regarding construction. Office is now closed and the team were in a meeting earlier. Is there an email address?! Really not good enough!!

  • nadean_ni
    Nadean (@nadean_ni) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia It's been off for 3 days now!! Absolutely nothing. Had problems when I moved also a few months ago, kept taking the wrong address down and I basically paid for 3 weeks without service, now this.

    @virginmedia Any update on this? No reported faults, restarted my virgin box, @All4 app still not working.

  • MarkMcL60727750
    Mark McLaughlin (@MarkMcL60727750) reported from Bangor, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia can you tell me how to send back your NOT so super intelligent WiFi booster. It's crap, does not work and ever since we used it we keep getting kicked off wifi, both me and my partner. Internet speeds are worse on some devices.

  • lynnnnseyj
    Lynsey (@lynnnnseyj) reported from Bangor, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I'm not a customer thank God. The complaint was with your construction teams obviously completing half arsed work.

    Pascal Stil (@Pascalstil) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Nice nonsense answer. One of our connections here in the house has been down for two weeks because a second connection was added, this ome is all on you

  • larmour_andre
    Andrew Larmour (@larmour_andre) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Sky Sports app “device limit reached” even though it has not been. Can not register/de-register devices on virgin app and it advises “contact your service provider” - which is yourselves.

    Just another day of poor @virginmedia service. Going crazy. All that money and useless service. Can’t get through on phone. Insane.

  • Fionnominal

    @virginmedia Multiple people across different parts of the city I’d say yes there was an issue. 14hours ago. But I’m not reporting a fault I’m making a complaint.

  • Fionnominal
    Fionntán BP Clarke. (@Fionnominal) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia internet down. Newlodge Belfast. It’s hard to tell though because it’s speeds sometimes are slow and stop.

  • beezlebum
    Sir Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia No. YOU need to talk to me. YOU need to tell me what's going on. YOU need to sort out your woefully inadequate 'customer service'.

  • EmmetMcDB
    Emmet McDonough-Brown (@EmmetMcDB) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @okaygeraldine @virginmedia That’s one for @consumerlinda G. I’d give them a call, I’m astounded they can charge you when you move to an area they don’t service. It feels very very wrong.

  • beezlebum
    Sir Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia No! It's your issue with your equipment. You should be keeping me, as a valued customer, informed. I've spent hours listening to crap music waiting to get information about this. Then being lied to. Do better.

  • jmpfe
    Mark Prentice 💙 (@jmpfe) reported from Donaghadee, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Any further issues? Broadband not working again from 5:00pm in BT21

    @virginmedia Never mind, send me my deadlock letter

  • DianePetherick
    Diane Holt (@DianePetherick) reported from Newtownards, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia my home phone is constantly not working, causing distress to my elderly mum. Trying to ring your 'helpline" today the recorded message is unintelligible. Any chance of help here?

  • beezlebum
    Sir Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia No! I've just spent 26 minutes trying to get through, so I'm just going to pester you on here instead. I've raised three separate complaints to no avail. My only recourse is public humiliation. For a communications company you're really very poor at it.

    @virginmedia Belfast BT6 no issues showing on service checker but no connection

    @virginmedia I'm trying to link my parents virgin media o2 account with a virgin media account, but when I do this, it's asking us to sign in with an email address we do not have access to. I've tried calling your customer services and they can't understand me.

    @j0nfuzz @virginmedia Brsk knocked on the door the other month to say they now had service so we’ll likely go with them.

    Sadly we are still last mile copper here, no Community/Open Reach fibre yet but we do have Virgin Media (old cable)... Yes I know...but I suspect support will be as **** like nearly all of them now....if Plusnet wasn't dropping phones and Zen wasn't hyper expensive I'd use them.
