Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England@virginmedia I also don’t need to monitor the quality of my broadband, I already know it’s awful. I don’t understand how that would help.
-
Christopher Fox (@ChrisFoxRacing) reported from Bolton, England@virginmedia Already reported the broadband issues, and it's an issue where estimated fix times keep getting pushed back. With regards to mobile issues, this has been around the same length of time. The only way I've been able to get any connection at all is by switching to 3G
-
Martyn The Driver (@martyn_driver) reported from Rochdale, England@virginmedia after 26 years as a loyal cable customer it is time to say goodbye. It would seem that loyalty is not rewarded, and you don't want low use customers
-
johnsonhomes (@johnsonhomes2) reported from Sale, England@virginmedia Her phone like works at the moment because she has power but not in a power cut. This is one of the issues set out in the email which VM requested I send on Wednesday
-
Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported from Westhoughton, England@virginmedia 3 times in 3 weeks we are without internet! We are paying for a service we are not able to use! Are we going to be compensated for this?
-
Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia As I say. I don't like publicly shaming a company that was once good. But your customer service is an absolute disgrace
-
kevin.james (@pillbo01) reported from Bolton, England@virginmedia That number is a automated response not a customer service agent and an utter waste of time
-
Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England@virginmedia I have phoned you at least 10 times this week. I’ve had a visit from a technician. My Wi-Fi still doesn’t work. I rang up AGAIN in the last half an hour, after waiting for 30 mins to speak to someone, they said they had ‘system issues’ and hung up on me. (1/3)
-
👽 (@bludav_andrew) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia Hi, for the 2nd time it appears you’re trying to charge me for a call out when I wasn’t supposed to be charged, I’ve already called once about this and was told it was corrected but it’s happened again? I’ve had to cancel my DD until sorted as due to come out 2morrow
-
Josh B (@JoshuaBurns) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia on my second week of being a first time customer with you and my connection has been down for nearly 10 hours now. What’s going on?
-

Hannah Tompkins (@he_tompkins) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia my broadband was “delivered” today by Yodel but the package is no where to be seen and wasn’t attempted (I’ve been in all day waiting). I can’t get any help from them, please help!! 😭
-
Rachael Stafford (@rachaelstafford) reported from Salford, England@virginmedia shocking service from you today, I booked an engineer visit for my mum supposed to come today between 12-4 nobody came she’s since called and been told it was a phone call not a visit but still nobody had called. She’s now got to wait till Tuesday for a visit 😠

-
Weirdly even older fan (@Karamonkey1) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia And the sum total of welcome texts I received during my 7 night stay in Jamaica was 189. I never moved from the same hotel. I often got 4-8 texts whilst sat at the same restaurant table or in my room. @virginmedia get your act together
-
JJ (@johnjoeoregan) reported from Manchester, England@stetopping Remember you did the piece late last year about Virgin Media Broadband being out for a day? It's now been down for six days in some parts of Manchester. Six full days and not a word from the company except automated messages.
-
Neil Ashton (@NeilAshtonActor) reported from Stockport, England@jimmyoates @virginmedia Same James. Same area and it’s not been working for an hour. It says on their website no issues in the area but not had any service.
-
Mike Chilton (@thechilledpanda) reported from Bramhall, England@virginmedia Unbelievable, you've sent me a dongle to connect a landline too the broadband on the 6th , so the phone line isnt going to work, though not much help on 150 as they abruptly cut you off. Website is also down.
-

-
Lubdub (@LubZafar) reported@virginmedia I’ve sent back my equipment in two phases. One was sent last year and you want to charge me again. You have a useless non contactable customer service so this needs to be resolved in one message
-
twocakesdakes (@2cakesdakes) reported@virginmedia absolutely **** company. Don't look after their loyal customers. Trying to cancel phone line and going to charge extra for smaller package. Just **** off
-
Kathy Miller (@KathyMi25429227) reported@virginmedia WiFi cutting out twice today and in last 2 days. Inconvenient at best. Why? Postcode says no issues..
-
mia (@miaKJKJ22) reported@virginmedia @entrustTMF Do you think it's funny?? People pay for service which you cannot deliver
-
LoobyLou1970 🇬🇧🏴 (@ldp17470) reported@virginmedia do you honestly expect customers to stay with you when you're gonna increase my package by £75 a month! I'm now switching to @skytv for the same package plus Disney+ for a cost of £81 a month. The best your lot could bring it down to was £128 Bye 👋🏼 #RipOff
-
entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported@karenwi17092279 Sorry to hear that, not good 😔 Yes, we rely on these things more than we realise... I had forgotten the printer, the TV box, my Spotify, heating controller, etc. all use the WiFi and workarounds for all of them need to be fashioned or just abandoned until @virginmedia fix it
-
v (@CourageHonour) reported@virginmedia virgin media absolute joke with no customer service of any use....totally given up trying to resolve issues......bye...hello sky.
