  • suziealderton #hellomynameisSuzie (@suziealderton) reported from Silsden, England

    @virginmedia absolutely rubbish service since we left @skytv and went over to you. Tv/broadband/phone off again on the whole of our estate-not much help to people working from home. Wont be renewing our contract with you, and will be checking how soon we can cancel!

  • jaswinburne1 James Swinburne (@jaswinburne1) reported from Silsden, England

    @virginmedia It’s technical issues with the broadband and network stability issues. No one wants to help, I’ve spoken to 3 technicians and no one has offered a resolution. Joke

  • 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

  • WillBr1875 Will_BRFC.1875 (@WillBr1875) reported from Great Harwood, England

    @virginmedia Hi , I just wanted to ask if you could help me concerning my Internet at home , its not been working all weekend at all, it connects but nothing please can we sort the problem ASAP Thank You

  • NJWesthead NJW (@NJWesthead) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @virginmedia Broadband/TV outage until 2:35pm but can’t register a loss of service as page doesn’t load. On 4G so problem is with you. Why advertise you’ll compensate if there’s no way to get it?!

  • braysoj1 Jonny Brayson (@braysoj1) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia why is the picture Quality so bad on the sky sports red button

  • jaswinburne1 James Swinburne (@jaswinburne1) reported from Silsden, England

    @virginmedia No one has offered a resolution. I have the same conversation time & again.... “I have reset your router”

  • braysoj1 Jonny Brayson (@braysoj1) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia internet gone down bd22 6hn

  • 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

  • MATTYB00SH 𝕄𝔸𝕋𝕋𝕐𝔹𝕆𝕆𝕊ℍ (@MATTYB00SH) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia Yes it works on my phone browser, but not on laptop, so I'll just continue using that method, thanks. One more question; Why do your customer support agents ask for a security password that I use when speaking to an agent, despite being a new customer and haven't set this up yet

  • gazbullsfan22 Gareth Rider-Smith (@gazbullsfan22) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia Yeah, we have been charged wrong for the past two months even though the account was clear when we entered a new contract with you, now we been challenging it since August! Told manager will ring and then they don’t and then you charge us wrong, and then to make your customer

  • WainwrightDean Dean Wainwright (@WainwrightDean) reported from Accrington, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for fixing it this morning, I trust given I’d no service for circa 36hrs I’ll see a credit upon my next bill?

  • Debbie_Cleo Debbie Ioanna (Author) (@Debbie_Cleo) reported from Queensbury, England

    @virginmedia honestly... your call centre/arranging anything is absolutely shocking. Twice had something arranged, twice its not happened and wrong things noted. Please sort out your call centre. This poor engineer has just turned into a complaints department

  • gazbullsfan22 Gareth Rider-Smith (@gazbullsfan22) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia when is someone going to ring us back after the failure to apply the package to our account we sorted on the phone yet still hasn’t changed or a manager ringing back to deal with the complaint. Shocking services but soon quick to mailing bills out!

  • WillBr1875 Will_BRFC.1875 (@WillBr1875) reported from Great Harwood, England

    @virginmedia There isn't anything that could help with the problem because I don't fully understand what everything is or means etc It could do with a technician to have a look, something similar as happened before and you sent a technician out

  • LovecloughKev Kevin Kitten (@LovecloughKev) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @virginmedia Why is your WhatsApp chat so rubbish for the 4th time i have been kicked off. Terrible service

  • 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?

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

    @virginmedia Also given that link is for postal marketing how exactly does that help with phone calls? As it stands your systems are non-compliant

  • IamAbulShelby 𝔸𝕓𝕦𝕝|𝕊𝕙𝕖𝕝𝕓𝕪 (@IamAbulShelby) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia @BexInfante mine is now not working at all

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

    @virginmedia Yeah I've seen that already thanks, but it's not going to help the kids with accessing homework online. no I am not on a B account as of yet as I have only just started out in the last week 😑 but even if I was on a B account it would still be off so doesn't make any difference

  • oasispj38 Phil (@oasispj38) reported

    @_Pealos @virginmedia I did mine all online, pretty simple. Had issues when installed and they sorted it really quick with an engineer. I was very happy with the service. But their route is crap. Great service in the main room, but you lose loads in others.

  • WrenJohn John Wren (@WrenJohn) reported

    @virginmedia what a job it is getting in touch with them about a new package, no answer on phone, live chat too busy to help. I wonder if SKY would be able to help?

  • jprnobrega João Nóbrega (@jprnobrega) reported

    What is that? another total blackout from virginmedia business service you say? just another day in the life of virgin media broadband at SW12 #virginmedia

  • aa_mcintosh22 Alex Mc (@aa_mcintosh22) reported

    @virginmedia how can I contact your customer services team to switch deals?

  • AltitudeIreland ALTITUDE (@AltitudeIreland) reported

    @Elmobai @virginmedia Same issue here Em, barely usable.

  • mermhart Miranda Hart (@mermhart) reported

    Please can you help me @virginmedia @Virgin Is there a nice person to speak to as the weekend is coming up and, you know, there’s Netflix to watch. And it turns out that life stops without wifi! HELP!

  • mxbexglambert Mx Bex☯#ReclaimGenderQueerFlag💜🤍💚 (@mxbexglambert) reported

    @virginmedia we've been trying to cancel our account for hours now. It's utterly ridiculous. Set up with @Plusnet was easy, stress-free and honestly easy. No messing, no silliness, no anxiety. When you ask why people are leaving this is part of why, terrible service.

  • RachelSellers11 selldogmillionaire (@RachelSellers11) reported

    @virginmedia your customer service WOW the call gets too tough your agents hang up. Someone just sent me through to o2 how do I deal with my complaint your staff are the most incompetent people I’ve ever spoken to

  • chrismalone1961 CHRIS THFC 1882 (@chrismalone1961) reported

    @_Pealos @virginmedia Yeah. Their customer service does leave a lot to be desired. But doesn't all the utility companies?

  • MarcGlickPitney Patrick McGinley (@MarcGlickPitney) reported

    @brighton_buoy @RichyCraven 👆Yes! Check Eir or Vodafone AND Virgin Media as VM apparently operates it's own network so they might have better speeds.
