    @virginmedia Yes, it’s rubbish. The service you provide is really poor. All you ever get told to do is switch of and reboot. Never works.

  • ScottShaqNelson Scott Nelson (@ScottShaqNelson) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia problems with my router and your tech help told me the cables must have come loose. I didn’t touch or move the router or the cables and your help got it back on by telling me that me tightening it resolved it. I never touched it. can’t you admit the router is faulty

  • seanyseanysaeny Flying Officer O’Connor🇬🇧 (@seanyseanysaeny) reported from Silsden, England

    @SkyHelpTeam @SkyUK @virginmedia are quick enough to take your money but not so quick to help out when things go wrong...

  • mrtariqmahmood Tariq Mahmood (@mrtariqmahmood) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia lnternet very intermittent. Router fault. But you won't send replacement so I am changing to Vodafone. Sick to death of the awful service I get from Virginmedia.

  • wesleyjodell Wes Odell (@wesleyjodell) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @PaddyTheBaddy @virginmedia Agreed. It’s terrible. Il be changing when my contract is up

  • EmilyMc767 Emily (@EmilyMc767) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia It’s a media account, but it was more about the quality of the call. It’s not the way to treat a customer. Thanks

  • SharonBradbury Sharon Bradbury (@SharonBradbury) reported from Haworth, England

    @virginmedia you have an exposed wire that goes down the side of my house and across my back garden so you’re able to provide a service to some houses below. I can’t find any written consent from the previous owners of the house. Major work will be starting soon...

  • ClaretNick Nick (@ClaretNick) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia broadband down AGAIN until 3pm today, means ill be working all evening to make up for not being able to do things today!

  • Salma_abdx Salma Khan (@Salma_abdx) reported from Great Harwood, England

    @virginmedia They have improved but this is a regular issue now. This should be looked into, especially with the prices you charge for the services.

  • jademelia99 Jade (@jademelia99) reported from Cowling, England

    Trying to cancel my @virginmedia contract yet no one will answer the phone or the online chat service. Such bad customer service

    @virginmedia I have to give 30 days notice and I have to use the service till 2nd October. I said her that I called earlier and another agent told me that If I decided not to renew I can end the contract on 13th September. Unfortunately she didn’t want to hear or understand my view….

  • DaveMcHero Dave (@DaveMcHero) reported

    @virginmedia I’m trying to set up a home mesh. To set it up it is asking my connection type and IPTV/VLAN. I’ll post screenshots from set up below. Thanks for your help

  • Jules77936724 Jules (@Jules77936724) reported

    @virginmedia Finally got through to someone. I had to lie about my calls intentions and take a different path. Earliest they can do is Thursday even though we have already waited 5 days for an engineer who didnt fix it. Is there anyone who can escalate this via twitter???????????

  • sophie30805597 sophie (@sophie30805597) reported

    @virginmedia @UniHomes Called you everyday for the past two weeks because our router hasn’t arrived. We’ve been told so many different days, and just now we were told three weeks. I can’t be without wifi during university and my flatmate works from home so he’ll get fired. Help.

  • whereuwelliebin suzieboop (@whereuwelliebin) reported

  • taylaura33 loz (@taylaura33) reported

    @virginmedia i placed on online order with yourselves this afternoon, when calling we were offered a better deal so set up an account and direct debit again and we’re told we can just cancel the original order via telephone, so we called cust services (1/2)

  • taylaura33 loz (@taylaura33) reported

    @virginmedia we are now told the second account did not “push through” and now we are trying to cancel the original order and set up a new account for a third time, will we be charged 3x or can there only be one account per address?

  • AhronAsghar Ahron Asghar (@AhronAsghar) reported

    @virginmedia absolutely shocking service. Been waiting for a team to install for around a month. I keep getting passed from department to department who can’t give an answer as to why they haven’t been out! Not happy! 😡
