Gareth “Gazimoff” Harmer (@Gazimoff) reported from Basingstoke, England@virginmedia That’s right. We’d moved house and we’re hoping to keep you with us, but there’s been over a month of delays (issues with current cable). I need it for work, so I’ve been forced to cancel and organise alternatives.
-
Nicola (@SparkleEyedGirl) reported from Newbury, England@virginmedia I have a security issue with my router, I cannot login in or change password as somebody else is logged in.

The Big Gay Review (@thebiggayreview) reported from Basingstoke, EnglandWiFi 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.

We’ve been trying to contact my Uncle for a few days on his landline and it’s going direct to the message service.

-
Chris Love (@chrislove_89) reported@andy_mac21 @virginmedia You’re right Andy, just a couple of responses from “Core Claim Support” which clearly isn’t affiliated with the actual company and is some spammer/scammer trying to get me to DM them my details. They don’t care.
-
Jags Arthurson (@JagsArthurson) reported@virginmedia You would love to help me, but you can't. Your response will be, "I'm afraid I can only apologise, sir, but that's the way it is. Take it or leave it."
-
Jayneadele (@Jayanic) reportedTrying to contact @virginmedia So frustrating! Need to sort out your customer service! 😡
-
Jan (@geminicat7) reported🛜 I’m safely back from the dentist’s 😷 (only a 6 monthly check-up and all was well) but now our internet is down and not likely to be resolved until 17:30! @virginmedia 👋 I can’t afford to use up my mobile data chatting on social media so I’ll see you when / if it’s sorted!
-
Lisa CAPTAININO (@CaptaininoLisa) reportedAnyone with virgin media having issues with tv down and broadband in Northampton
-
Eternal Elneny (@eternalelneny) reported@virginmedia With all due respect, the engineers have been there all day, I saw two of them having a 20 minute lunch break at 10am. Can you push these engineers to get this completed today? Compensation isn’t a valid response to not being able to work - ridiculous service.
-
Jo (@WhitmoreJo) reportedI'm on call to one of your sales team and trying to cancel phone and tv and just have broadband but I'm being told that's not ok and I can't? @tradingstandards @virginmedia @virginmedia
-

-
Jackie (@boomerangjf) reported@virginmedia what is going on? They has been intermittent issues with Broadband in my area for a couple of weeks. No communication? Hoping we won’t notice? Virgin Service is appalling!
-
