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

    @virginmedia I have been trying to get problem with my box sorted for 3 weeks now. Cuts out sound only. Still not sorted and all info followed. Gone beyond frustrated now simply unacceptable customer service I want to know where else I can complain to or where can get sorted

  • Erinshore11 Geoff Wright (@Erinshore11) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    Had visit No 2 from Virgin, a couple of nice chaps,chased cables and removed cable still connected to the network that's not been used for years,new modem,new leads,new remote and the supervisor's number with a call back in a week, all good so far well done @virginmedia

  • Emfozz Em (@Emfozz) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia Ironic you try and blame customers. It’s your service not my house or my equipment or how I’m using it.

  • Blenky64 John Blenkinsopp (@Blenky64) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia I’ve messaged that number twice - first time nearly three hours ago and still no acknowledgement. I think you need to sort this out or all your customers will leave come on - please let me know why there is no customer service response three hours is hopeless

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

    @virginmedia Tried this, 3 days to reply per message. Pathetic really, good customer service could compensate for poor phone service but I don’t get either. I get the VM sim for free with my package, I’d rather pay an extra £20 a month elsewhere to make sure I don’t miss important calls

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

    @virginmedia I dont mean to be rude but I can tell you now the option to text was not on the "contact us" page I visited on your website, but I see it's just a text option to the live chat anyway so this will be a waste of my time but texting now

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

    @virginmedia Done, I'm now down about 360mbs from where my speed normally is, and just checked, yep can still crash my router using my laptop without trying

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

    @virginmedia No as I’m unable to get through 1. Because my signal is horrendous and 2. Because your lines are constantly closed. It seems easier for me to just go back to @EE as I need reliability, I’ve missed too many important phone calls since using VM.

  • Erinshore11 Geoff Wright (@Erinshore11) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia Spoke too soon back in off again. Obviously nothing to do with modem as it’s new, same issues as before this time off for a fair amount of time now, is there an issue imnn in in TS8 location.

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

    @virginmedia @grimegran You have been awful since the lockdown, yet I keep seeing these hopeful ads that just wind me up as anyone currently on you service knows that it is currently a joke. Yesterday was the first time since the lockdown started that I didnt lose connection at all or have router fail

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

    @virginmedia Is actually my whole street, I can sit and watch every bodies routers resetting and I assume they are having same speed issues as me

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

    @virginmedia @grimegran #Stayconnected the biggest mystery to all Virgin media customers at the moment is how to stay connect to the router and the broadband! Stop promoting ads when your customer service is currently unable to accepts fault reports, 8.5 weeks and counting!

  • Emfozz Em (@Emfozz) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia shock as broadband is down again. Yet you’ll still expect full payment from everyone.

  • Erinshore11 Geoff Wright (@Erinshore11) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia Service back after a engineer visit last night, with another coming again today. After being with Virgin for years, the Tv and internet service these past 6 months has been poor, surely I should get a reduction on my bill.

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

    @virginmedia I have, many many times and it always comes back to same, yet I'm down about 80mbs this morning, I've restarted my router today already because I switched my laptop on (everytime), and I can also crash my router with 1 device almost at will

  • FatAbbott Ste Addison (@FatAbbott) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @SamMorrison19 @virginmedia What kit did you have when it was intermittent, I've got same issues

  • DanielHill21 Daniel Hill (@DanielHill21) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia need help

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

    @virginmedia @grimegran Im Going to keep replying to all this promoted ads until my internet is fixed, 8 weeks and counting! Terrible routers too, range is embarrassing to be honest and crashes under a pretty minimal load

  • Emfozz Em (@Emfozz) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia I’m not going to waste time in doing that, I’ve worked in telecommunications, I know how your process works, I also know you’ll try and pass the book to customers before taking blame because the tiniest speck of dust can effect my WiFi signal. So it’s fine.

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

    @virginmedia @bethanymiah_ I'll save you both some time there and tell you now that you will be able to make no difference whatsoever, the hubs have always been awful and it seems they have got worse since lockdown, maybe they can catch Covid too

  • Belugekko Mark Wrangham (@Belugekko) reported

    @virginmedia you truly are an awful company to deal with. Finally got to the point where I want to raise a complaint, and of course that page of the site is unavailable, very much like your broadband service. Always over promising and under delivering, but happy to charge.

  • Katomonkey Kate Bowskill (@Katomonkey) reported

    @virginmedia is there any reason why after I’ve cancelled in my cooling off period due to poor internet that I have received three bills totalling over £140?

  • JerkAndBeans 🇯🇲 (@JerkAndBeans) reported

    Why do I have to use my data in my own home, fix up @virginmedia

  • AllanMaher6 Allan Maher (@AllanMaher6) reported

    @virginmedia what a shocking service from Virgin Media. Been with Sky 15 years and decided to change over. A partial installation took place on Tuesday where only 2 TV boxes were installed instead of three and no internet pods. Now 2 days on and no further forward.

  • KatalinaBelle KatieBelle (@KatalinaBelle) reported

    @virginmedia Morning. It’s the 2nd time in 5 weeks we’ve had no internet all morning, while trying to work from home. Do you credit accounts for this? Since we’re paying (a lot) for a service we’re not getting.

  • RobertWastell Robert Wastell (@RobertWastell) reported

    @virginmedia Sorted by David in the VM Forum team. Normal service resumed. Many thanks 🙏

  • 1agsgsg John (@1agsgsg) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia live chat, phone lines no one answers all I want to do is cancel my service

  • ChayWilliams4 Chay Williams (@ChayWilliams4) reported

    @virginmedia Tried to call the number this morning but it seems you need to be an existing customer? The first thing it is asking for is a virgin phone number or account number to continue?

  • ACLegalServices Legal Eagle. (@ACLegalServices) reported

    @virginmedia what is happening with wi-fu reception. No signal then about 5mbs?

  • wesosullivan1 wes o sullivan (@wesosullivan1) reported

    @virginmedia hi is it possible to receive some help , trying to speak to someone since 9am with no answer and your what’s app number is not replying either
