    @virginmedia JS, have you taken the time to read the thread through? It would appear not as your previous colleague intimated that you would be looking at auto-comp issue when I notified you that the issue had been resolved though you mentioned nothing about that.

    @virginmedia Why does your organisation make it so difficult to raise a complaint? Please advise with whom I may raise this.

  • mark001282
    Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Stainton and Thornton, England

    @virginmedia It's been going on for 8 weeks. I'm going to document this all and put it online for everyone to see how poor you have been. It's so stressful and you are doing nothing to help

  • simonmp68
    SimonMorrisonPeacock (@simonmp68) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia I have tried phoning and am being passed from pillar to post on chat. I have no services. I’m housebound and cannot do anything. I’ve asked for help as suggested and am receiving none. Very unhappy

  • Shaunelious
    Shaun Calvert (@Shaunelious) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia I’ve cancelled the visit but why should I have to call back in the first place to cancel a visit I didn’t agree to? I wanted it adding to my initial complaint or raising separately but no one was interested. Cancel my contract

  • AllpointsTV
    AllpointsTV - Jamie (@AllpointsTV) reported from Guisborough, England

    @virginmedia so trying to get an engineer to fix my 1gb internet after days of it running at sub 200mb and disconnecting at midnight it’s now been off for over a day . I just kept being told try again in one hour

  • simonmp68
    SimonMorrisonPeacock (@simonmp68) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia Yes. I’ve been quite I’ll for some time and my finances are a bit of a mess after an account hack that is still being sorted out. I don’t know how much more I can take,stuck in house with nothing and been on chat for over an hour with little reply from anyone human please help

  • benrelton
    ben (@benrelton) reported from Hartlepool, England

    Broadband is down in our area, but can’t register loss of service on the website - just won’t work. Any ideas? @virginmedia

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

    @virginmedia It's a waste of time tbh, all they do is insist I take the hub out of modem mode and when they do eventually agree you are rubbish and put me through to line faults they either just hang up or the battery on my phone dies

  • rachsclarke
    rachel (@rachsclarke) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia Wireless mainly, even though the device is right next to the router. This is the 3rd day in a row - never had this problem in the 10yr of been a customer

  • simonmp68
    SimonMorrisonPeacock (@simonmp68) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia @Virgin I have received a reply which advises me that query won’t be dealt with or further replied to immediately. I am desperately trying to hold it together here,please please can you help me sort this out.

  • ajtheladplummy
    Adam (@ajtheladplummy) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia Advertises the best fastest and most reliable internet you can get but all you get is buffering. Tried to call support team all you get is automated options, please select your option blah blah and all you get is we will send you a link. I want to speak to a human!

    Paddy Sweeney (@PaddySw99745534) reported

    @virginmedia @_JIMBO55 What do I do with your faulty equipment. I will soon be cancelling your awful service and requesting a refund for the period without service. Should I involve my barrister or will you sort this out.

  • MarinaRobb
    Marina Robb (@MarinaRobb) reported

    @MelJanie @virginmedia Tellingly, the engineer who eventually came out (I'd already cancelled the service) said they still had to fit the back up line as they'd been fined £28 million by the regulator. Appalling customer service though.

  • JHNaismith
    James (Jim) Naismith (@JHNaismith) reported

    Usually optimistic on technological progress so disappointed broadband speed being > halved to 67Mbps next month by @bt_uk. @virginmedia can’t fix their “blocked duct” at front door, not good advert for uk infrastructure, I live in Jericho, central Oxford, not remote Highlands.

  • DaveRutt2
    Dave Rutt (@DaveRutt2) reported

    @virginmedia can you help your call centres are useless!!! My sister has moved house as she and her husband are divorced and she has no contact with him. The ac is in his name , but she pays for it. All she wants is the ac to be in her name .. why is this so hard to do 🤬 ?

    Burn Notice (@BurnNotice85) reported

    @VirginMediaNews Note to Virgin Media : stop platforming that religious zealot and fantasist - even at the opportunity cost re: a young journalist's tv screen time & professional exposure. He's on his way back to prison when another warrant comes down from the bench, in coming days and weeks.

  • LivingSage2
    LivingSage (@LivingSage2) reported

    @Dacosta150 @Jojo_agboola Bro, I’m on Youfibre too, lovely network. I dropped virgin media broadband, not because they are bad but cos of Youfibre upload speed. Their 1000mbps download is same with their 1000 upload. I’m on You2000 and it’s been lovely. @Jojo_agboola should try it

  • scouse9000
    Darren (Dazza) (@scouse9000) reported

    @CheekyVic @virginmedia Yes I would totally agree with that! I had to get in touch with one of the directors to sort my account out! She waved the massive bill if I dropped my complaint!! We had closed the account 5 months before that! Shocking customer service!!
