    @virginmedia Checked l the internal cabling and all right etc so hopefully just a lose wire somewhere at the cabinet or something the engineer can easily fix. Is there any refund due to lack of service? I pay £67 a month. Can offset that against my mobile phone data

  • TerryFBH Terry Chapman or FBH (@TerryFBH) reported from Yarm, England

    @virginmedia I look forward to receiving your offer regarding the complaints that I already made and have still not received a response. I suppose you could consider this a further complaint that your complaints process is inadequate.

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

    @virginmedia No, just continue to ignore me as they have no idea how to fix it

  • CraigScanlon86 ⒸⓇⒶⒾⒼ ⓈⒸⒶⓃⓁⓄⓃ (@CraigScanlon86) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    3 weeks and 2 engineers later and the broadband outage between the hours of 6 and 9 continues, absolute useless from @virginmedia next steps unless engineer 3 can fix this tomorrow is #ofcom and seeing if we can switch providers 👋

  • TerryFBH Terry Chapman or FBH (@TerryFBH) reported from Yarm, England

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

  • LumbWriter David Lumb Writer (@LumbWriter) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia why is the internet down? I've checked and you're aware of this issue. I would like it sorted out

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

    @virginmedia I've done this many times previously and does nothing, the most recent request to switch it from modem mode is so you would process my complaint with ofcom which in turn means I'm without WiFi for 30 days unless standing on the "superhub"

  • Curriepeter1 Currie.peter (@Curriepeter1) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia why is the internet so slow and buffering every day I’m pay for a service that’s not fit suitable

  • jonnydearlove Jonny Dearlove (@jonnydearlove) reported from Middleton St. George, England

    @virginmedia Hi. Weve just moved house and are trying to install a new router but house connections look out of date. What is the best contact for someone to help with this as may need someone to come out?

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

    @virginmedia Got the t-shirt, when I last went through it the resolution was for me to leave and not pay my last bill and see you court which was really helpful

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

    @virginmedia They are even worse, whoever your director of customer service is needs removing ASAP You will call me soon enough when the bill goes unpaid again!

  • Curriepeter1 Currie.peter (@Curriepeter1) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    Why are virgin media so crap so slow and keeps buffering every day we pay for a service that’s not fit for the purpose

  • Core_Legal CoreLegal (@Core_Legal) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    Our phone lines and internet are down at our Wakefield office at the moment due to a national Virgin media issue. We have been advised that this is trying to be rectified as soon as possible and when we have an update from them we will update our social media platforms.

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

    @virginmedia You won't process it as I am not willing to pay for 30 days of no Internet as the hub has almost zero range even if my line issues are resolved

  • MrsMummypennyUK Lynn Beattie (@MrsMummypennyUK) reported from Knebworth, England

    @virginmedia No an engineer came to my house. He could not fix it. Rebooting will not help. Please read my original tweet.

  • jordanlennox686 Jordan Lennox (@jordanlennox686) reported

    @virginmedia Quick question, when I was on the phone I asked the woman for her name and i.d number to note it down to who I have spoke to but I was told there not aloud to give out there name or any i.d?

  • MrsMummypennyUK Lynn Beattie (@MrsMummypennyUK) reported

    @virginmedia I need urgent chat help. My upload speed is the worst. It's taken 8 hours to upload 70% of a 30 min video to YouTube. You sent an engineer to my house last week, and he did everything he could, except my upload speed is still the worst. This is not worth £27 a month.

  • Shoppinguk2 Shopping uk (@Shoppinguk2) reported

    @virginmedia You are not even making sense to what I tweeted - Can I have a human in a UK call centre to talk to please major problem, thank you

  • red27ferrari David Kearvell (@red27ferrari) reported

    @virginmedia you have quite possibly the worst customer services known to man. I’m on day 4 of trying to sort my issues with you and today have been on hold for over 6 hours!!

  • jordanlennox686 Jordan Lennox (@jordanlennox686) reported

    @5antiagro @virginmedia That's what I'm saying but there saying if a want to cancel it's £388

  • harperjch J (@harperjch) reported

    @virginmedia Okay - but the issue I have raised is speaking to 4 different people and wasting 90 minutes of my evening trying to sort that. I don’t have much faith calling again will resolve my issue
