  • thebiggayreview The Big Gay Review (@thebiggayreview) reported from Basingstoke, England

    WiFi went down in the middle of watching Halloween Ends. 4G signal also unresponsive. Stuck on very slow 4G. Virgin Media say it’s possibly a hardware fault and want to send someone Monday. No. I’m not waiting 72 hours with no internet. I’ll implode.

  • AfroChuck87 ¥ (@AfroChuck87) reported from Basingstoke, England

  • lissaburns Melissa Burns (@lissaburns) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @tonight__we_fly @virginmedia Exactly this 👆🏻... at least long serving customers are apparently all treated equally... with poor service 😭

  • AfroChuck87 Dan 🇪🇺 #TitanUp (@AfroChuck87) reported from Basingstoke, England

    . Why have you hung up on be after being on hold after 40 minutes. Your customer service is an absolute disgrace. You should be ashamed. @virginmedia

    @virginmedia @joelycollinsx Hilarious. You get a link after ringing the number but the website is down

  • MatildaDr Joanne Wells (@MatildaDr) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia you used to be great, but now not so great. I lose my internet connection far more frequently now. There’s an error when I try and change my package online. I’ve phoned customer service now I have to call tomorrow as your systems are down for changing packages

  • TropicKarenB Total Tropic Karen 🌴 (@TropicKarenB) reported from Newbury, England

    @virginmedia No broadband service in RG14 and your service status checker isn't working. Is there a know issue? #virginmedia

  • TheTomothy Tom Hogan (@TheTomothy) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia better have a good explanation for this but likely this will never be answered and all my years of bills and loyalty mean absolutely sod all. @bt_uk and @SkyHelpTeam Any good deals on broadband? And can you promise you wont vandalise my home & connection randomly?

  • SimonMiller52 Simon Miller (@SimonMiller52) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia Hi yes I’ve done this numerous times and spoken to many people on chat and always been told I will get a call to discuss and I never hear back. I just want someone to look into why we cannot get it but it’s available on our road. Thanks

  • skearney7 Stuart Kearney (@skearney7) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Not really. I have made arrangements to bring my account up to date and close it as I am a responsible person. However as a result of the U Switch service not working. I have paid you £150 extra for a service that I have not used. So from my point of view I am very frustrated

  • lissaburns Melissa Burns (@lissaburns) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia can you help? We’ve been struggling with internet for last 3 weeks. Now dropping on daily basis and devices not connecting. Spent 1.5hrs talking on Thurs... was promised a call back yesterday but received nothing and still major issues. Can someone pls call?

  • littlekatyb Katy Blay (@littlekatyb) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Hi! Our landline is being switched over to fibre on the 4th October, however our landline and WiFi hub are not on the same floor so we cannot connect them. Help please!

  • pilot_paul Pilot_Paul 🇪🇸 (@pilot_paul) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @Dom_Brown2406 @virginmedia Got through. They aim to fix the issue by 10:00

  • CathyTVNews Cathy Alexander (@CathyTVNews) reported from Thatcham, England

    What's the problem @virginmedia ? No broadband all day in RG18. Work day wasted. Your signal check says "problems" but no updates. Can't get thro to customer service.

  • fayeharland faye harland (@fayeharland) reported from Woolhampton, England

    @virginmedia hi there not sure if you can help. We’ve been trying to contact my Uncle for a few days on his landline and it’s going direct to the message service. We’re getting quite worried about him and wondered if it’s possible to see if there’s a fault on the line?

  • richcon98 Richard Conway (@richcon98) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia I have to say @virginmedia are one of the worst companies to contact if you have an issue. Their message system is a joke and accounts a shambles. @skyuk is looking a better prospect!!!!

  • baldydrawnboy77 Ray Bentos (@baldydrawnboy77) reported

    @ShockLad @virginmedia Same issue here. Usually starts late afternoon and continues into the evening. Terrible service.

  • Emma_Swinton Emma Swinton (@Emma_Swinton) reported

    @virginmedia @_alicebeer Things I’ve learned this evening after 2.5hrs on phone to Virgin Media. A. I’ve been lied to, B. Resolution date possibly 6 Feb (not guaranteed) C. Technician should never have been auto cancelled as doesn’t appear anyone’s working on a fix for outage

  • otterman62 otterman62 (@otterman62) reported

    @virginmedia how do you justify a price rise of >25% on my monthly bill? are you actively trying to get rid of me as a customer?

  • joshstankler Josh Stankler (@joshstankler) reported

    @virginmedia I see. The channel up/down button doesn't click down any more. How do I get a better condition remote sent to me please? Don't mind sending both of these back to you...

  • andy_puttock Andy Puttock (@andy_puttock) reported

    @virginmedia No you said "If after one has been installed there are still WifI problems we can send an additional pod". Well we already know there will be problems that's why I need 3 again! Why can't you reactivate the 3 have rather than sending (individually again)?

  • DrRishworth B Rishworth (@DrRishworth) reported

    @virginmedia Well as soon as I can be I will be sadly switching as I have just gone round in circles with customer services.

  • annegibney48 anne gibney (@annegibney48) reported

    @virginmedia TiVo. I can't find out which type from my account online which is very poor.

  • Petesdragon13 Donna (@Petesdragon13) reported

    @virginmedia When will Virgin Media start rewarding loyal customers ? There are not many who have been loyal for over 30 years ! Bills still increase and no respect for loyalty when you try to keep them down and have to take smaller deals. Disappointing ! Time to change I think !

  • Jclay95 Jason Haus (@Jclay95) reported

    @virginmedia on a 2 week cooling off period... will be cancelling as Internet shocking again.. GL2 4DS area now says there's issues, explain?

  • baldydrawnboy77 Ray Bentos (@baldydrawnboy77) reported

    @virginmedia broadband down again. On/off every few hours for 2 weeks now. Can't wait for my contract to end and be done and swap for something more reliable. Already had to buy a separate router. The only thing that works is the landline, which I haven't used for years!
