  • Formally_Gill Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from New Marske, England

    @virginmedia I rang after the email and they assured me they have applied a discount and would stay the same price for my contract. I agreed a fix price and if that's not what I got then I have been lied too, which is a miss sale and the ombudsman will be contacted, again.

  • Johnsonator85 Marc J (@Johnsonator85) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia Ffs YOU try calling that number and tell me if you get through to somebody. I’ve tried god knows how many times and I just get a machine telling me you’re busy and that I “might like to call again later” every, single time. Your level of service is a joke.

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @KEESH1984 @virginmedia 8 days of that, we not heard fro you for a while youbstill need to speak to someone? OK let's start the whole thing again Chuffing useless, what they offer is not customer service its hope it fixes itself before anyone notices or leaves

  • PeteYourDoom Peter 🌲🐈🎸🕹️ (@PeteYourDoom) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia hi, any help on a non responsive remote to vbox? It is flashing red when I press buttons bit nothing happening on box. Only started happening tonight

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @NathHawkeswood @virginmedia Twitter cant help, phoning cant speak to anyone, text service in an endless loop, chat service online is also an endless loop I need to speak with line faults and they aren't even an option on the automated phone service so I'm really screwed

  • Johnsonator85 Marc J (@Johnsonator85) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia In the meantime I can’t do anything then so basically you’ve been no help whatsoever

  • Johnsonator85 Marc J (@Johnsonator85) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia who have I got to screw to get through to cancel my contract with you?

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia Let me ask, so you know how long the line is to speak to technical support? Have you tried using the text service and online chat? I have all at the same time and after 8 days I still hadn't spoke with anyone, you are unable to support your services

  • PeteYourDoom Peter 🌲Santa Doom🌲🐈🎸🕹️ (@PeteYourDoom) reported from Hartlepool, England

    . @NOWTV @nowtvhelp any idea on how to stop the intermittent blue screen when playing back any on demand video or TV channels? Got an older now TV smart box. It's wired connection into a 300mbps virgin media hub so no issues.on playback speed.

  • Formally_Gill Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia seriously, a price increase?! Only renewed my contract 2 months ago and for more than I've ever paid! Of course, no customer service available either. Ridiculous!

  • RobertTamkin94 Robert-Andrew Tamkin (@RobertTamkin94) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been trying to contact your call centre for 15 minutes and I’ve tried all the options and I can’t get through to ANYONE!! I want to cancel my contract and it doesn’t give you the option online to do so!! Can someone cancel it from your social media team?

  • BradleyStaunch Bradley Staunch (@BradleyStaunch) reported from Hartlepool, England

    Virgin media internet is good, EVERY SINGLE other thing about them is ******* shite. Never understand the ***** on the phone takes, 3 hours to get through, website always down, make a payment page been broke for 5 years. ******* ****

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    Not a lover of call centres and thought that they didn't really offer any customer service of any real value, then you have the likes of @virginmedia and @Hermesparcels that seem to want to upset customers. That said, credit to @NespressoUK, was blown away with your service

  • 147mick Michael White (@147mick) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia Yes problems with wired devices as well, I have to turn the hub off then on again all the time even if I'm in the same room.

  • Poddddddd Jamie Gilbey (@Poddddddd) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia can I access some support on here?

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • MartinHopey Martin Hope (@MartinHopey) reported

    @virginmedia We have been told an internal complaint has been made due to agents offering us unrealistic deals which don't exist. Asked to speak to someone and just transferred to go over it all again and again. The issue seems to be a company policy not just individual agents.

  • TimtheWineGuy Tim Haslam💙 (@TimtheWineGuy) reported

    @jayrayner1 @virginmedia Had Virgin a few years ago & their customer service was unbelievably crap, even for a telecoms provider. Unannounced outages, no compensation & clueless staff.

  • blueben15002657 bluebenny83 (@blueben15002657) reported

    @rosentweets @virginmedia 2022 and virgin still won’t give out an email. Pathetic customer service. They tried to charge me £40 for a router that went faulty years ago, their engineer took it with him. Took me about a dozen phone calls to get the charge removed. Less likely to return due to this reason

  • PantherAS90 andrew💫 (@PantherAS90) reported from Clifton, England

    @virginmedia @rosentweets I’ve also been trying to change my package and the links are dead. Tried to ring to no avail! Awful service

  • MorgyMorg Captain Morgan (@MorgyMorg) reported

    @virginmedia After ~3hrs and £ on phone calls the issue was resolved. I had a very clear query that could have been resolved in 15 mins but was passed through at least 5 teams. Really poor.

  • Ant_F1_Fan Ant (@Ant_F1_Fan) reported

    @virginmedia @Nakedterry All I wanted was to get the ‘free’ NetFlix that’s supposed to be on my package activated, but they keep asking if my WiFi signal is good and other idiotic things. Their website has a ‘manage streaming services’ page that doesn’t let you manage the services!

  • punkbiznitch Zoe (@punkbiznitch) reported

    @virginmedia No, he dodged the question when I asked how i would be compensated for the loss of speed and service for the 19 days you’ve been aware, for the lies, for the day I waited for an engineer that was never coming… Just advised me to check my next bill.

  • sophie_9_ Sophie (@sophie_9_) reported

    @virginmedia @ChrisMisslin My kids have used all their data as yet again services not working and I can't get on their website🤬 crap service every week

  • Theobane Theo Goyvaerts (@Theobane) reported from Dublin City, Leinster

    Anyone else having issues with Virgin Media internet being down? Bit of a pain trying to work off a hotspot currently.

  • Keizer1337 Lucas van Muiswinkel (@Keizer1337) reported

    @Chunkanator_ @virginmedia you have to play the virgin media dance every 18 months osc, thats just the way it is. That or you get slow, ****** internet
