  • wightpie
    Wightpie (@wightpie) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia So why then a) does it specify postal and b) not provide a field for mobile number. At best it’s misleading and at worst incompetent

  • FloButcher84
    strange little Flo (@FloButcher84) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia bb3 area: internet has been down since yesterday morning & update it's not going to be fixed till tomorrow. I have a online business to run & kids need to do their homework online, can't stream any tv either. Can I ask what the issue is & why its taking so long?

    @virginmedia Had no internet and TV service for over 24hrs now, can’t get through on the phone and it says the broadband issues are sorted on the service check online...it isn’t.

    @neilayates @virginmedia I believe they were the "3rd Party" that also caused the Microsoft 365 outage which killed our session yesterday!

  • scottboyle6
    scott boyle (@scottboyle6) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia the worse customer services ever! Passed to 4 different departments for 15 mins only to be cut off.

  • FloButcher84
    strange little Flo (@FloButcher84) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia still no broadband in bb3 area since Thurs & update now says tomorrow for fix. Shocking customer service, why can't you tell your customers what is happening instead of saying an engineer is on the way on the updates, at least then we would know what to expect

  • HolGaffneyx
    Hol (@HolGaffneyx) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia Still nothing, we were told 24 hours and they would call but still no call, wondering if you can tell me how long this will take? Cause I'll cancel and go elsewhere

  • Shigufta1
    Shigufta khan (@Shigufta1) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia Problems with my TV very frustrating not being able to speak to anyone. For a communication provider the service being offered is not acceptable

  • dazzle961
    andrew day (@dazzle961) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia I haven't been able to sign in to my Virginia media for years so complete waste of time Time to sack you lot off

  • SamMcCartney
    Sam McCartney (@SamMcCartney) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @Craig273 @virginmedia No. I just want to cancel sky sports as for £31.75 a month I don’t get the use out of it. I was lied to saying it would affect my package discount. I already get BT sport for free and if Amazon will be streaming more it’s pointless

  • djbowers14
    D J Bowers (@djbowers14) reported from Great Harwood, England

    Moved from @skytv to @virginmedia after 8 years and being a VIP customer with Sky. Poor service and a huge increase in price. Lost a longstanding customer. Now to try Virgin Media and see how this goes.

    @virginmedia Broadband down since 7am this morning. With a secluded repair date of 2days from now! ‘Register of loss of service In Order to receive compensation’ impossible to locate on your app or any of your web pages? Yet a Price increase this month! Absolutely Shameful!!

  • PHILROOKS
    just me (@PHILROOKS) reported

    @virginmedia With respect I have done this, and you just come back saying you can't access my account or help as you're just the MEDIA TEAM. I'm sure you're here to just monitor the poor comments and look like you care, when you don't. Your CEO should be embarrassed and take responsibility

  • CraigA3
    Craig Aldridge (@CraigA3) reported

    @virginmedia I have messaged you team online, replied to their emails and tried calling. But your team told me my package wouldn't change as I moved home then have sent me a contract for 4x as much and then decided to not pass security with me to fix. It's an evil scam

  • AlloquiStrix
    Alloqui Strix (@AlloquiStrix) reported

    @virginmedia First thing this morning you said the outage in my area (22) would continue for another week,then another message saying it would be fixed today, and now a message saying it'll be a week again. Is there a playbook you guys are using to wind up its customers?

  • ruthmpayne
    Ruth Payne (@ruthmpayne) reported

    @virginmedia the WiFi in Edgbaston / B16 has been down for 48 hours now. Tried finding out what’s happening but call centre was useless. When will this be sorted??? 48 hours is ridiculous

  • dandufton
    Daniel Dufton (@dandufton) reported

    @virginmedia My VM account has been locked out 'for security reasons' for over three weeks. I called the number given and was told it has been escalated to the techteam. Now three weeks on and I've heard nothing. Trying to chase on the phone but been on hold 25 mins. Help!

  • Coxy_Girl_
    Juniper Pearl (@Coxy_Girl_) reported

    @yoffey @virginmedia Call cut out. Got through later without an hour long wait. Issue identified but also that our TV box was old and needed updating. New box due tomorrow, TV issue did resolve itself over night.

    @virginmedia your customer service is abysmal- sort it out

    Rolland Law (@rolo852010) reported

    @virginmedia Can you not just reply on here and just explain ? There is nothing secret about this post there’s nothing to hide it’s a general question regarding the cool down period.

    Nichola 2020 (@NicolaDonnan) reported

    @virginmedia how do we speak to a real person? A lorry knocked down or phone pole today meaning 5 houses have lost their phone/ WiFi cable. We need to organise reconnection.
