    @virginmedia We aren’t getting anywhere and you cut us off. This has to be worst service, if I performed as your advisor I would be sacked! How do we get to resolve the issue via the above method?

    @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?

    Ian Lumsden (@ianlumsden) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia I have been trying to get through to customer service for the past two days, the call is usually immediately rejected or I am told the call waiting time is an hour. I have had enough and as soon as I get through I am cancelling my account. 😡

  • PattipooFoy
    patricia foy (@PattipooFoy) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia No TV from 23rd December till 29th! Got a new box fitted, okay for about a week then started playing up again! Spent 3 hours on the phone Thursday night trying to sort to no avail...need an engineer to come out again...but no idea how to arrange!! Terrible service 😑

  • 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

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

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

    @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.

    @virginmedia @virginhelp any chance you can sort the internet issues in BB11, it’s a nightmare at the moment!

    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

  • 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

  • Marsoma
    Marsoma (@Marsoma) reported from Burnley, England

    @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.

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

    @virginmedia Service even worse you demand full payment and then will credit our account for your error and breach of contract! Your customers service staff rude! Demanding money before we can speak to anyone well I wonder what a solicitor would have to say with copy of the breached contract.

  • IanForrest10
    Ian Forrest (@IanForrest10) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia Plugged in new Wi-Fi hub all good. Paired new remote with box but upgrade to box failed error code M63. Bot is all over place customer service rep basically non-engineer saying turn it off on again!

    Im sick to death of @virginmedia and their **** service!!! How do I cancel?

    Cristoir Toibin (@christobinsings) reported

    @virginmedia absolute shambles of a service today, missed the football and now no Internet again for the last hour. Happy to send me 4 messages to say you've fixed "the issue" Time to move to another provider.

  • iamryanodonnell
    Ryan O'Donnell (@iamryanodonnell) reported

    @virginmedia Thank you - I managed to call them and I believe they’ve sent out another WiFi Pod, so I’m hopeful that’ll solve my issue.

  • PureSesh48

    Good old @virginmedia down yet again. Need to find a reliable provider. Sick of this.

  • Fraudly_
    George W (@Fraudly_) reported

    @virginmedia your online service is an absolute joke. You notify me of new monthly fee starting in May and I need to look at other packages if I want to change before new price takes effect. Only for your site to be riddled with errors and your bot to give me a broken link! With that link switching between error message and taking me right back to that same chat! And I shouldn't need to go round in circles chatting about an upgrade, much easier just doing it myself on your site. If it actually worked.

  • The_Broski_Boot
    AJ (@The_Broski_Boot) reported

    @virginmedia we are now over 12 hours into this issue without any meaningful update Under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, services must be provided with reasonable care and skill. A prolonged outage without resolution or communication may breach this. Can you please update

  • Mrfutherfukery
    Mrmutherfukery (@Mrfutherfukery) reported

    @virginmedia @fanboyofnolan Yes, absolutely they do **** all even if you can actually get you speak to a person. Which is near impossible. Very bad company if you cancel your contract they call you in about 10 minutes 🤑🤑🤑🤑

  • MattWestall
    Matt Westall (@MattWestall) reported

    @virginmedia love it when you contacting your broadband provider to cancel, explain it’s because you’ve been offered cheaper elsewhere, and the “best they can do” is more than the renewal itself
