  • Orko77 Jenny (@Orko77) reported from Manchester, England

    Hi @virginmedia, my neighbours and I are all having connection problems today but when one of us managed to speak to someone, was told that it all looked fine and is having a virtual technician calling. Seems a bit pointless if we're all struggling?

  • oafc617 OAFCDambuster #MHFA (@oafc617) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia - hi .. your product is struggling to show even 2mbps download in the OL2 area! Is there a problem in this area?

  • Bolt100Wands boltonbwfc (@Bolt100Wands) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia an absolute disgrace all night the pixelating of every channel on our boxes plus all Bolton the same! Service Status saying nothing wrong! Sort it Virgin! We pay for a service!

  • emma1995_louise emma louise crowther (@emma1995_louise) reported from Tyldesley, England

    @virginmedia desperately in need of some help

  • ggfeb62 geoff george (@ggfeb62) reported from Oldham, England

    @ChadWeather @virginmedia I am of the opinion that Virgin Media just gives lip service to its customers takes their customers money without fixing any of their customers issues or concerns 😟 I pay a substantial amount each month.... What for they say go online....reboot no change 😡

  • MrMcSmee Martin McGovern (@MrMcSmee) reported from Manchester, England

    Virgin broadband down yet again! 4 months of the absolute worst service I've ever endured. Yet @virginmedia expect me to continue with them on the day of a massive price increase. I'd phone them, but don't really care for waiting an hour to get through for the 20th time #Yay2021

  • ThisMorningCall Ben Heyworth 😷 (@ThisMorningCall) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Well it’s just gone down again!!!! 🤬🤬

  • Josh_Deegan Josh Deegan (@Josh_Deegan) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia For months and months on end my WiFi has been in and out like the hokey bloody cokey. I've downloaded the signal check app and it tells me signal is great when it's clearly not. Trying my best to work from home but this is causing me unwelcome stress.

  • MalbiffaSwann Mal Swann (@MalbiffaSwann) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia Yes it is I regularly check cables and connections but this does not improve the signal in the upstairs of the property at all

  • unlovedlongsigh Phil Samphire (@unlovedlongsigh) reported from Manchester, England

    Hi @virginmedia I have just spoken Customer service, very brusque and clipped and use the term “Sir”in a very passive aggressive way. my order upgraded service they was insistent that virgin didn’t it so I had to email her “Order ref: WS7344640 Order date: Wednesday, December 2”

  • MrMcSmee Martin McGovern (@MrMcSmee) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Thank you for pointing out what I already knew about my contract. Do you not have a response in relation to the actual issue?... The shocking service, & the obvious reason why an unhappy customer lacks any real desire to continue being a customer? Irregardless of the increase.

  • wilsonbecks1 Rebecca Wilson 🌈 (@wilsonbecks1) reported from Bolton, England

    I would be grateful if someone from customer services at @virginmedia could contact me regarding the lack of service received since moving over to @virginmedia

  • MalbiffaSwann Mal Swann (@MalbiffaSwann) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia I need some help my wifi needs boosting in the upstairs of the house how can I get a booster from you? I’ve looked on your website and it’s impossible to find how I can get one from you. TBH can’t believe I need one given the cost I pay for your super broadband

  • Bolt100Wands boltonbwfc (@Bolt100Wands) reported from Bolton, England

    Once again @virginmedia tried to ring you but your customer care is shocking. I know of over 100 people plus in the Bolton area with continuing pixelating on ur TV Service which means you cannot watch TV! This needs sorting ASAP! Shocking service and unacceptable with what I pay!

  • ThisMorningCall Ben Heyworth 😷 (@ThisMorningCall) reported from Manchester, England

    Bloody WiFi has gone down yet again!!! Sort it out please @virginmedia £60 a month for unreliable services is a joke

  • Josh_Deegan Josh Deegan 💙 (@Josh_Deegan) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Yep. Checked all that, used the app and it says everything is great. I called the customer service line yesterday and it said it needed to send something down the line but nothing happened.

  • PhilCampbell_ Phil Campbell (@PhilCampbell_) reported from Manchester, England

    Note to everyone....never join @virginmedia on an offer. scamming bastards! 🤬

  • GeoffJonners Geoff Johnson (@GeoffJonners) reported from Bolton, England

    Any chance you can sort this picture issue out @virginmedia

  • jonnybarnes Jonny Barnes (@jonnybarnes) reported from Whitefield, England

    Poor TV signal with @virginmedia at the moment, at least the internet seems to be okay

  • LiamRLaverick Liam Laverick (@LiamRLaverick) reported from Urmston, England

    @virginmedia literally THE worst internet provider. Nothing but trouble since we switched from Sky. Engineers been out twice and still losing connection constantly. Had to turn off the WIFI to even tweet this 😡

  • ms_arsenal1988 danielle richards (@ms_arsenal1988) reported

    @virginmedia Great response John…exactly why your company are the worst no acknowledgment for the customers stress or the situation just matter of fact…fyi the representative didn’t explain that..virgin provide excellent customer care I see. I’m done I’ll just contact ombudsman

  • deepdiver456 S Blinkhorne (@deepdiver456) reported

    @virginmedia I called your support team and they told me it will be out until tomorrow afternoon. I can't even connect to the box because there is no service. Not a good start.

  • deepdiver456 S Blinkhorne (@deepdiver456) reported

    @virginmedia That status page is also a joke. I get a message to say it is working, then it isn't working, then there is an issue with my box. Brand new box, not very happy.

  • OTBC69 OTBC (@OTBC69) reported

    @virginmedia getting fed up with your customer services. 3 weeks into a query and still no further forward. An upgrade and broken activation link still not sorted. 60 mins on phone yesterday and got cut off. How do I complain?

  • ravinrr80 Ravin 🇹🇹🇬🇧 (@ravinrr80) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah that's the same number that just puts you in an unending menu with NO option to reach an actual human. Your customer service is nonexistent. I'll be cancelling my contract.

  • zeded zeded (@zeded) reported

    @virginmedia are demanding a 22% increase in broadband payments part way through 18 month contract. Wtf do ofcom do?

  • CodeInTheCabin Code In The Cabin (@CodeInTheCabin) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I have been online before, soon as I contacted you for over charging £450 I started not being able to login to my account. Done password reset successfully many times and always same error logging in.

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia Well... @VodafoneUK also invest around about the same amount of money in their network, and they haven't increased the prices anywhere near as much as you have. And I'm always connected whenever I'm outside the house. No issues with connectivity whatsoever.

  • deepdiver456 S Blinkhorne (@deepdiver456) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, just saying it is a really complex issue, which I guess means it isn't going to be fixed any time soon.

  • BenDodridge Ben Dodridge (@BenDodridge) reported

    Hi @virginmedia, hope you’re having a nice day? I’m not, was supposed to have broadband installed on 22nd Jan but got a text the day before delaying till 18th Feb. Just had another delay to 8th March sent today. Unbelievably bad, and no-one in the call centre has any clue
