    Tom Rowntree-Finlay (@Tom_R_Finlay) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    Cannot believe how @virginmedia treat their elderly customers. 75 year old women completly let down Have taken her money and delivered no services for two months. Disgusting to leave her isolated with No Sevices and no communication.

    Seán MacAoidh (@SeanJPMcKee) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I opted out of marketing, it’s from your sales team trying to stop my from switching my service, it’s overkill especially as I’ve already had the conversation with your agents about it.

  • 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 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?

  • davmacfc
    Dale McDonald (@davmacfc) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia can you please explain why the best price as a loyal customer for years is 30 pound more expensive than a new customer. Can’t even get through to right department to cancel

  • _JennyMcKiernan
    Jennifer McKiernan (@_JennyMcKiernan) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Your complaints team appears to have lied to me. They've failed to register my formal complaint about harassment & what appears to be a criminal data breach. This is all over a router that was returned a year ago. Can you help?

    @sabele26 @Kat_Bee_123 @virginmedia Terrible none of them have good customer service, sky's as bad.

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

  • bernardmccabe
    Ben McCabe (@bernardmccabe) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia 4 days since internet cut off and still no sign of fixing it. While I’m paying a stupid amount for the privilege.

  • jazzyrath3
    Jazzyspurs (@jazzyrath3) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia your broadband service has been s**t the last 4 days in the BT8 area. Any chance of a fix as I am trying to work from home and having to use hotspot on my phone to ensure I can stay online. A trip to BT when my contract is up.

  • stuartwfrobbins
    Stuski (@stuartwfrobbins) reported from Bangor, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Hello, Broadband service isn’t currently down, postcode BT20 4NS, I have rebooted router, and tried to call, but it says offices are closed. Please investigate/ fix.

  • BelfastBooks
    Belfast B❄️❄️ks (@BelfastBooks) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Well done to @virginmedia’s off shore support team for taking a loyal customer of 24 years, treating them so insensitively that they’ve now cancelled their contract and will go elesewhere for phone, broadband and TV.

  • lennylinfield
    Leonard Totton (@lennylinfield) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @theboardlfc @virginmedia It’s terrible. Mine was fine until lockdown started then it dropped to on average 8mb! Called a few times to be told it was fine. Only for preferring Virgin TV I would have changed a while back. There are many with the same story

  • adammccalden
    Adam McCalden (@adammccalden) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia since my virgin mobile UK signal has been shifted from piggyback Vodafone to @O2 it has been a complete disaster, constant signal dropping, constant WiFi calling cutting. This is before my account has been transferred to O2. Complete and utter rubbish

  • mfearonmusic
    Michael Fearon (@mfearonmusic) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia And I was also advised if it wasn’t resolved soon I should show the contract agreed to ofcom. Hopefully you can fix this or escalate it, thanks.

    @virginmedia Never mind, send me my deadlock letter

  • GarethOHare3
    Gareth O’Hare (@GarethOHare3) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Oh for many a useless hour. We then spotted engineers outside. He said he wasn’t here to install internet, but to find Toby box. I said it’s there, someone dug it up 3 weeks ago. He said someone couldn’t find it during the week. Short story, it’s found please help

  • HarbourLord
    Harbour 💚 (@HarbourLord) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia you have the worst laid out website. All I'm trying to do is speak to someone on chat to figure out why I have zero upload speed right now and honestly thinking of just cancelling my broadband contract because your site is so unfriendly for customers to navigate.

  • DarkOldWolf
    Jon (@DarkOldWolf) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Can you confirm connectivity issues in Belfast please? I did have to disconnect for new carpet fitting, i put it all together again and it worked. I returned home at 830 to find it down again. #Belfast #VirginMedia #Internet

    Alan Cripps (@cripps_alan) reported

    @virginmedia do you ever listen to to your own customer service recorded messages ? They are awful ! Totally unclear what we are expected to do to restart service ! . And why does your customer service team not start until 8am when they are based in India ? Makes no sense

  • Matt247821
    Matty Smithy♿️🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@Matt247821) reported

    @Jenny_1884 It’s pants, not as good as fibre and expensive as you have to purchase the equipment. The latency sucks. Alright for basic browsing but not gaming or high quality streaming. Virgin media is cheaper and faster

  • kevin_cox9211
    kevin cox (@kevin_cox9211) reported

    @virginmedia I need help the call centre person isn't helping and won't listen. Can't get on to account a replacement box that was ordered is now not been ordered.

  • rolo852010
    Rolland Law (@rolo852010) reported

    @virginmedia Can you not just reply on here and just explain ? There is nothing secret about this post there’s nothing to hide it’s a general question regarding the cool down period.

  • DiabloDame1
    IrishWill (@DiabloDame1) reported

    @virginmedia hi, we have a complete outage (waterford city) no TV, no Internet. We have attempted all options, so don't send us links to your website. This is going on for 3.5 hrs. Modem flashing red, can't get work done, & unable to even watch TV. What is going on?

  • iadnan9
    Addy (@iadnan9) reported

    @AlloquiStrix @virginmedia Reported an issue 2 months ago and only just received a response. The advice given was unhelpful, careless, and frankly unprofessional. The issue is still ongoing with Now being told it could take another 28 days for a follow-up. Completely unacceptable and a waste of time.

  • andreac14064810
    andrea crosby (@andreac14064810) reported

    @virginmedia I’m totally disgusted by your service

  • jemski7
    Jemski (@jemski7) reported

    @virginmedia Not in the slightest. I’ve had many many conversations with your representitives and have been dumbfounded by the treatment you’ve given a customer of 25 years so I’m done. Your customers are just numbers to you.

  • MartinLawton
    Martin Lawton (@MartinLawton) reported

    @virginmedia What is the point, your website keeps saying you are looking into it and keeps changing the fix time, you will just say the same. 😐

  • PwnProblems
    Akita (@PwnProblems) reported

    Virgin Media charge different prices for the Internet packages dependent on your willingness to negotiate. M350 package prices range from £29 to £66 a month. Today they told me they don’t accept blue light discount, which they 100% do. Don’t get angry, hang up, try again.
