  • pBullox
    Paul Bullock (@pBullox) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia No real explanation, just he can’t do it today. I was surprised he already knew of the problem but didn’t stop his installer coming. I spoke to lots of folks today when I called, no one could give me an idea.

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

    @virginmedia down in #Basingstoke RG21 - call to find out its out between 10am and 3pm due to network improvements. Surely such a significant outage he should come with prior warning - how to damage #CX ! Could have been a great #CX if communicated well...

  • Hello_HWC
    The HWC (@Hello_HWC) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Slow speed Constantly dropping service Not able to connect devices, TV and computers To be fair your engineer was the best bit! The rest was an absolute shambles. It’s all in a complaint I have through on your website to the resolution team...

    @virginmedia If you forgot your pin your bank would send a replacement through the post. Please arrange for a way to cancel this account that does not cause further distress.

    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!!!!

  • AndyOramEmax
    Andy Oram (@AndyOramEmax) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Great customer service!! NOT🤬. Returning customer and you told us it would work but doesn’t because we don’t have a face plate miss selling comes to mind!!

  • Loafite
    Tony Phillips (@Loafite) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @SkyHelpTeam hope all is well, @virginmedia have just increased my bill again for broadband (£32 increase per month in the last 10 months, disgraceful) are there any deals for a Sky customer for broadband?

  • Gazimoff
    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.

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

    @ianmills99 @virginmedia No internet in RG21 either. Cannot even get on to the service page on my mobile

  • JGrenvillewood
    Joshua Grenville-Wood (@JGrenvillewood) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia fix your WiFi services. Can’t even get the tv to connect let alone a phone or a laptop. Terrible WiFi

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

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

  • 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?

  • draloksharma74
    Alok Sharma (@draloksharma74) reported from Oakley, England

    @virginmedia we are without internet now for over a day. No text updates despite registering what can be done about such poor service

  • 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

  • Johnty14
    John Richards (@Johnty14) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia next to useless support over the last 2 days trying to explain to your technical department what packet loss is! In the 40 mins it takes, the packet loss and speed has gone back to normal.

  • 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

  • ninepine
    Mike Fuller (@ninepine) reported

    @virginmedia Apology accepted but your data is clearly bad and your systems faulty if you have to rely on assumptions not truth. Sadly symptomatic of @virginmedia - @ICOnews should investigate. When your systems also wrongly say I haven't paid my bill in full it's systemic not unusual.😡

  • ShirleySarah70
    ShirleySarah🌹🎸🦊🦔🐦⚽ (@ShirleySarah70) reported

    @RosyPosy_kitteh @IamCarrieagain @virginmedia They were very rude to me this afternoon. Both on chat then phone. Ill be cancelling my services next week once I have the opportunity to ring up. They treat older (I'm 72) people with disrespect.

  • ACraftyOne
    Crafty (@ACraftyOne) reported

    @virginmedia This is the problem I have 5-6 responses from your incompetent customer service team. I have requested a deadlock letter which they refuse to provide. Just to clarify that it is a scam. I paid for the service on my contract as shown, now you are charging me twice.

  • Her_indoors51
    Jen Smith (@Her_indoors51) reported

    @virginmedia Thank you but a lovely lady on your customer service spent 40 minutes to fix it for me.

  • SimonBeals2
    Simon Beals (@SimonBeals2) reported

    @virginmedia please can you tell me why your boxing pay per view never works properly please? No such issues with Sky pay per view.

  • drdjmarks
    Skids (@drdjmarks) reported

    I've had half a dozen or so emails from @virginmedia in the last 6 months offering me a new hub at no extra cost. Each time I'm asked to click the link to order, but each time it merely takes me through to my current service status with no option to order? Extremely annoying.

  • ianrooney48
    roo64 (@ianrooney48) reported

    @virginmedia My tv picture is distorted and pixelled. Been gradually getting worse since yesterday. Many of us in the M43 Manchester area having the same problem.

  • trail_71
    Gen X (@trail_71) reported

    @virginmedia It says there’s a fault but hoping to fix by May 18th 🤷 I’ve rebooted the box and it seems fine now

  • AndoverUK

    @virginmedia @Joshhhhh____ What about where it’s not total but bad enough you can’t actually do any work on it?
