    @virginmedia Why cant someone just ring me so I can actually explain what the problem is. When I try and light in it does not recognize my mothers maiden name and I'm sure I have got that right so then I cant get any further

  • Rocketman_86 Rocketman_86 (@Rocketman_86) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Your a tech company and doesn't have an email address. Your live chat is laughable and waiting times on the phones is silly. Trying log into the account - forget password the username doesn't exist. The self help is insulting intelligence is the ringer switched on for instance

  • TheLensman Mark ODonnell (@TheLensman) reported from Crewe, England

    @virginmedia The number used 01455443469 in the UK. They said they had detected problems on our router & wanted to help. They asked me to enter a web site. Having spent almost 40 years in IT I felt it was wrong. The router does have slow moments but I had not reported it.

  • moorland2 Moorland (@moorland2) reported from Endon, England

    We stopped paying @virginmedia the£90 for what in fairness was complete crap and have bought a Manhattan @FreeviewTV box and couldn’t be happier. We would never go back to virgin or sky for their overpriced TV service

  • xTrustBandit #bandit4president (@xTrustBandit) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

  • marcalmond7 Marc Almond (@marcalmond7) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @TheHammer180 @virginmedia Best thing to do is give your 30 days notice to cancel and they will call you directly with an offer! Happened to me twice now!

  • andyvic7 Andy Picken (@andyvic7) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @drummerwhitey @northernsky67 @virginmedia Steve it was a last resort for me but other avenues were fruitless, I ended up getting a visit from an engineer , a booster and a reduction in my tariff after I told them I’d leave , normal customer service is dreadful, keep on pushing them

  • moorland2 Moorland (@moorland2) reported from Endon, England

    @virginmedia trying to contact you and all I keep getting is a stupid repetitive bot

  • Ohrate_Tri Chris Walton (@Ohrate_Tri) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

  • Rocketman_86 Rocketman_86 (@Rocketman_86) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Yes. No human tone. No customer service. The usual have you tried changing the batteries in your phone, could it be your handset etc ( they bought new ones 6/7 week ago thinking it was them) may be they should ask Virgin Media to reimburse them

  • cajriley51 Jacqui Riley (@cajriley51) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia I have been trying to sort out the issue off my password not working and the internet dropping out for over a week. I am getting passed around in circles. Please can you tell me how much notice I need give to leave and also give me an email for complaints please

  • iMeyrick Meyrick (@iMeyrick) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @zebadee1985 @virginmedia Virgin Media, fastest speeds but slowest customer service. It’s a massive shame, it really lets them down.

  • TheLensman Mark ODonnell (@TheLensman) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England

    @virginmedia It might be best if you send a DM - we had a phone call from people who said they were virgin support. We have a phone number but the call felt wrong

  • HarneetBains Harneet Singh Bains (@HarneetBains) reported

    @virginmedia Starting to regret moving to VM. Never had such a poor experience with any other provider before. What good is having thr fastest speeds when the broadband is down altogether multiple days over a short period? Thats 3 days of work that have been impacted for me in a month alone

  • Just_Ranting2 N Mehta (@Just_Ranting2) reported

    @AlanHug65627794 @virginmedia But please make sure you do complain to the CEDR. You have paid for a service and are due a refund and the service has not been provided. Ask them for a complaint ref, its less than 8 weeks since you complained ask for deadlock letter.

  • KyleGeorgeArch Kyle Arch (@KyleGeorgeArch) reported

    @virginmedia Engineer came and replaced my superhub. Apparently the next step if this doesn't work is to dig up my drive so hopefully this has solved the issue.

  • ConnieDoesCode Connie Higgins (@ConnieDoesCode) reported

    @virginmedia No I don't need help with 3rd party devices! LOL I need my internet to work from @virginmedia - it's really slow. Doesn't reach to most rooms in my house (i do not live in a mansion) & it doesn't reach to my back office 4.5m away!

  • BenABrittain Ben Brittain (@BenABrittain) reported

    After weeks of poor internet signal, with the connection dropping in and out, it seems today my Virgin Media hub has finally given up. The earliest a technician can come out is Saturday too. Will have to work from next door.
