  • superseagull8 Chris Saunders (@superseagull8) reported from Newton Abbot, England

    @virginmedia had a problem with your tv service for over a month now, tried all the online troubleshooting and can’t get through on your phone lines. Been holding over 30mins again today.

  • LizzyLoly Liz Loly (@LizzyLoly) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia I have been trying to get hold of someone to establish why I cannot login to my account online and why I have been overcharged. Despite being told several times that someone would get back to me in 24 hours it never seems to happen. Please advise how I can reach you.

  • Kingsholm1 Kingsholm (@Kingsholm1) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia - I’ve had pixelated channels for weeks - I had an actual engineer booked to come today and miraculously those channels were fixed when I checked last night - so I text “FIXED” only to find they are not working again this morning - now I’m hanging on the phone for

  • MElcoate Martin Elcoate (@MElcoate) reported from Topsham, England

    @virginmedia As per many comments in this thread I have suffered at the hands of terrible VM customer service. Employees don’t seem to have the tools to do a decent job. So many pillars & posts to be passed between. VM ok when it works but if you need help...

  • JackieKellySW Jackie Kelly (@JackieKellySW) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

  • nrjs1000 Nicholas Seymour (@nrjs1000) reported from Countess Wear, England

    After weeks of problems and discussions about WiFi connections, @virginmedia have just advised me that I should arrange my Zoom meetings for 7am when the traffic is lighter! Been very disappointed with them altogether. Leaving after 15+ years.

  • petenjane petenjane (@petenjane) reported from Topsham, England

    @virginmedia There seems to be a region wide problem with your internet service and your service status page is broken - a service announcement would be useful might save you a few incoming calls too?

  • JackieKellySW Jackie Kelly (@JackieKellySW) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia here we go again unable to watch movies or Netflix #buffering #virginmedia customer service unhelpful 😡

  • JackieKellySW Jackie Kelly (@JackieKellySW) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia cannot watch TV , signal keeps going off !!

  • samdruiff Sam (@samdruiff) reported from Bickington, England

    @virginmedia what’s the best number for a new customer to call to set up virgin media?

  • JackieKellySW Jackie Kelly (@JackieKellySW) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia There is a local issue now but we have been having issues for weeks

  • MElcoate Martin Elcoate (@MElcoate) reported from Topsham, England

    It would appear that @virginmedia broadband is down across the SW until at least midday. Not that you’d know from VM. Have had to glean this from internet searches & Facebook. Usual poor VM customer service.

  • MElcoate Martin Elcoate (@MElcoate) reported from Topsham, England

    @virginmedia Well that’s pretty meaningless. Broadband down in Exeter & other parts of Devon. When is service expected to be restored? Why haven’t you put a message on your website? This is impacting my ability to work at home.

  • JackieKellySW Jackie Kelly (@JackieKellySW) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia No issues detected but both TVs have same issue

  • JackieKellySW Jackie Kelly (@JackieKellySW) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia New issue started a few days ago , tv keeps going off , not a TV issue .

  • AmberDowning Amber Downing (@AmberDowning) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    Get @SkyUK @SkyHelpTeam they said, they are good, finish with @virginmedia. So why does the internet go down at midnight every night? Sky?

  • conzy_m Conor Maher (@conzy_m) reported from Waterford, Munster

    @NIDeveloper @virginmedia I am so delighted that NBI fibre is available through smaller providers like Blacknight. Id much rather give them my money than a Vodafone or Virgin Media and the support is top notch

  • SimmoSimms Jess Pearson (@SimmoSimms) reported

    @virginmedia If it rains heavy...our broadband goes. We chased fault issues and they say no faults could be found. Called up and it was impossible to get an engineer. Generally increase has been a couple of pounds. £9 is alot.

  • iamwinner6161 Sue HJ (@iamwinner6161) reported

    @virginmedia No service issues par se. But this is everyday on our 2nd tv.

  • broadbandless broadbandless (@broadbandless) reported

    @virginmedia No, I don't want to spend another hour on the phone. I want someone, a named individual, to take responsibility and contact me. That is what competent firms with decent customer services do.

  • SeanMurricane Sean Murricane (@SeanMurricane) reported

    @virginmedia Hello! I know the Mobile standard prices are all going up in April - I take it I can cancel and re-join in April with whatever deals you have in place then? Or can I do that ahead of time?

  • SimmoSimms Jess Pearson (@SimmoSimms) reported

    @virginmedia A couple of months ago. It hasnt really rained heavy since so not sure if the issue is still there. We have internet for odd few mins then goes. Then goes and off till rain eases

  • AnneIarchy Anne Iarchy (@AnneIarchy) reported

    @virginmedia They didn’t. And now got cut off after wasting half hour in the line with no help at all #badcustomerservice

  • PMurphy1978 Paul Murphy (@PMurphy1978) reported

    Lol Virgin Media sending me a letter telling me that the dog **** service they provide is going up by £21.50 in April. Yeah, a 15% increase is a totally normal thing to do and isn't going to cause me to cancel all of my TV services and source "alternatives".

  • Danielle92_ Dani 🖤 (@Danielle92_) reported

    @virginmedia Hi. I am moving house and was told my service would just transfer and continue at normal (plus extra £20 activation fee). My first bill will include first calendar month and month ahead. If this is the case will I be refunded from my last bill at old property?

  • scottsinner1977 Scott Sinfield (@scottsinner1977) reported

    @virginmedia I am a current customer. It was just removed. I am on the phone with my 15th person, have a complaints ticket and nobody has contacted me back for 2 weeks on this.
