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

    @virginmedia Absolute joke, basically been told to get stuffed because they have no evidence of the call and offered £10 after being patronised again. Want to cancel, can't unless I pay over £200. Ombudsman it is then.

  • alcampion alan (@alcampion) reported from Stillington, England

    @virginmedia it’s slightly better now but these issues keep a curing now and then but nothing gets done about it I rang about a month ago with same problem so you’re team said they will give a reduction in my bill the following month but that never happened so I’m done with you.

  • beck5ter Jason N Beck (@beck5ter) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia It is a constant problem, mobile telephones say they are connected but arent, firesticks dip in and out, Alexa loses connection, ring door bell only 10ft away has very poor connection, it's been poor for a while each time I ring. I am told it will be fixed and it never is

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

    @virginmedia I’ve been trying for a week now to get an issue sorted with my TV. Keep getting cut off or not able to get through. Tried e-mail no reply I am now very unhappy,box keeps going sound only every 20 mins. Done all the checks says nothing wrong! Clearly!

  • MickDude MickDude (IndiePenDude) (@MickDude) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia broadband down again!!!

  • MickDude MickDude (IndiePenDude) (@MickDude) reported from Redcar, England

    So my @virginmedia V6 box is sat with an orange light on and no apps work My broadband has gone off about 15 times in the last 2 weeks but the Service Status and online equipment check says everything is fine!!!! AGAIN!! #Rubbish

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

    @virginmedia yet to be contacted regarding a complaint I made 2 weeks ago. Didn't get the he complaint reference because the women was rude, the second person I spoke to assured me it had been logged and to allow a few days for it to be looked into.

  • gaussey 𝙼𝚒𝚌𝚑𝚊𝚎𝚕 (@gaussey) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia it’s a terrible state of affairs when you have to be told by an engineer there’s been an area fault for two weeks and you don’t know what is causing it or how to fix it.

  • beck5ter Jason N Beck (@beck5ter) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @bt_uk I certainly will, as no matter how many phone calls to @virgin nothing improves, my kids have to use data on their telephones, Virgin Media's Wi-Fi and internet is terrible @richardbranson

  • Formally_Gill Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia Hello, it's it relation to a package, phone, TV and broadband. I have received no communication what so ever on relation to this since logging the complaint.

  • Formally_Gill Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia If not resolved in a reasonable time frame I will cancel and not pay any cancellation fees as the sale was misleadingly sold

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

    @virginmedia Issues described nothing to do with my problem. TV goes off after 20 mins. Sound only. New HDMI lead did not solve problem was told to ring back just cannot get anyone to speak to. Can’t watch TV over a week now. Not good

  • thenatureboiiii cleveland216 (@thenatureboiiii) reported from Redcar, England

    @Monster_minder @virginmedia That's becos the tivo box is a piece of shit

  • AmyIrving Amy Irving (@AmyIrving) reported from Egglescliffe, England

    Loving the customer service @virginmedia today- no fuss or hassle and the man I spoke to saved me money off my monthly bills thank you!

  • Formally_Gill Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia It's not a service issue. It's never worked. The phone line doesnt appear to be activated

  • JoBooth10 Jo Booth (@JoBooth10) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia Shame your customer service doesn't have a little more oomph.

  • Formally_Gill Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia Just raised a new complaint via the website

  • Benjiffy Benjamin Clarkson (@Benjiffy) reported from Stainton and Thornton, England

    So @virginmedia offer 3x the broadband speed for new customers for the same price I've paid for a year, but offer me the same bundle I've had for a year for £5 more, or an extra £23 for the new customer one. Next company to put fibre in my area has a new customer waiting.

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

    @RacingTV @EpsomRacecourse Would love to but you never do offers for virgin media and althyquality is good on phone/I-pad not the same as watching on tv. Please please do this on virgin media too 🙏🙏

  • PeteYourDoom Peter (@PeteYourDoom) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia Wired is fine. Wifi is fine but degrades on the first floor. Never used to be bad so wondering if faulty hub 3 or software change

  • scottyb1875 Man on the Spot (@scottyb1875) reported

    @virginmedia I never asked for it I don't currently have it nor Netflix but you team push these products then tell you what you just said no offer unless you take them. It's terrible treat current customers this way. As said I didn't expect anything and VM obliged. 25 years means 0

  • DukeOfHavoc Duke Of Anti-Growth Coalition (@DukeOfHavoc) reported

    @virginmedia Update: You have now removed the current owners from the account of the house we are moving to and put my details there so they can't cancel their service (they are moving abroad). This is a disaster.

  • andyksheffield Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported

    @virginmedia I don't believe the standard of your service will be any better and certainly there's no greater speed than 500mb is there ? Should domestic customers receive a poorer service. That logic is shameful.

  • W33COV Claire Coventry (@W33COV) reported

    @virginmedia Our wi-fi has been down since 10pm on Wed 02/11, repair time keeps being pushed back, now saying it won't be fixed until 2:15pm today. Given that it was originally supposed to be fixed by 10:15am on Thurs 03/11, I won't hold my breath. What's going on?

  • coreythehoe corey the cleaner (@coreythehoe) reported

    @butcher809 @virginmedia It’s the O2 merger that’s killed it, they were always the worst for speeds and now virgins using their masts now we all get to suffer too. Definitely gonna avoid in the future, useless customer support too

  • laurajhal Laura Jane (@laurajhal) reported

    @virginmedia In addition, my parents have spent hours on the phone with your customer services team for them to offer zero support or alternatives to resolve this situation. A huge waste of time!!

  • Pat2253Bradley Patricia Bradley (@Pat2253Bradley) reported

    @virginmedia I have a problem with your company. Someone has ordered a quick starter kit using my mobile number. No-one at Virgin Media is prepared to resolve this problem. Today I have spoken to five different advisers and have been disconnected twice. Not impressed

  • thePaulR thePaulR.eth (@thePaulR) reported

    @virginmedia Again. The solution is simple. Actions speak louder than words.

  • GabonPhil Philip Lawry (@GabonPhil) reported

    @virginmedia @virginhelp Help me log into SkySports from my PC please. I've shared a screenshot of the authentication issue above.

  • GuansingA Anthony Guansing (@GuansingA) reported

    @virginmedia how do you submit an issue when your phone is down, your online chat don't work, no email address to contact and your website links don't work nor provide a way to submit an issue but makes customer round and round the same help page instead?
