  • marcbbz Marcbbz (@marcbbz) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Third time this weekend trying to get through to the retention team. I’ve spent a total of 1hr and 37mins on hold and still not spoken with a human being. And you wonder I want to cancel my subscription.

    @TheMontyDon Watched my @virginmedia recorded @GWandShows this morning, started with that lovely lady talking about her roses, so annoyed, iPlayer here we come. @virginmedia why can't your box adjust the recording times when a series link show starts at a different time, happens a lot v poor.

  • IDugdale Ian Dugdale (@IDugdale) reported from Urmston, England

    @virginmedia Service in the M41 has been appalling for months and the local Facebook group is full of complaints, don’t see any of your customers charging @virginmedia for the inconvenience.

  • richtimperley Rich 🐝 (@richtimperley) reported from Sale, England

    @unit_1974 @virginmedia We have exactly the same issues. Blinking frustrating 😤

  • woody0702 Steven Woodside (@woody0702) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia why does your broadband never work between 5am and 7:30am in #Farnworth Surely this a poor service as things are not never working... If there are works why does your website never update to say so

  • beefstock3 colin paul henstock (@beefstock3) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia its been a week now and its taking the mick as i pay over £100 a month for this so called service so please sort it.

  • danielpwood1 woodsa (@danielpwood1) reported from Salford, England

    @RockcliffeFiles @virginmedia Me to, my work has a high proportion of Indian colleagues who I generally rate highly but a lack of understanding of the conversation and an inability to deviate from script to provide reasonable customer service is totally unacceptable.

  • wilcock_steve steve wilcock (@wilcock_steve) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia Any news on when this service will be back up and running it’s now 12 days!!! #virginmediaisajoke #votewithyourfeet

  • SamanthaOvens Samantha Ovens 🏳️‍🌈 La! (@SamanthaOvens) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia Thank you for sending the link, that did enable me to at least register the loss of service.

  • harrisufc Paul Harrison (@harrisufc) reported

    @virginmedia can you tell me if you have issues in the SS8 area please ? Extended period of flashing green on box and have rebooted twice already. Thanks. Paul

  • JamesTayler87 James (JT) (@JamesTayler87) reported

    Can't seem to get through to @virginmedia on the phone? Your phone systems down? #VirginMediaO2

  • deadeditors_ Carl 🦩 (@deadeditors_) reported

    @scottygb I remember when they completely removed the channel off Virgin Media for a few years and never replaced it, then brought it back.

  • journoandrea Andrea Downey (@journoandrea) reported

    @virginmedia Apparently a work order has been issued and the problems (yes, multiple) should be resolved within 48hrs. I look forward to calling again in 48hrs when it hasn't been done.

  • fh_catt FHCatt (@fh_catt) reported

    @virginmedia Sorry, I'm all explained out! There has been 6 weeks of calls and explaining - want to hear a named human voice who can own this problem. Spent 40 mins on a webchat y'day, just a waste of my time as it has been since I came over to you as a new customer!

  • rogermoody80 Roger Moody (@rogermoody80) reported

    @virginmedia Basically Virgin Media are money grabbers and don’t care about the fact that you couldn’t use or trust the service so left. But Virgin Media wants its disconnection fee although I have no idea what this fee is supposed to cover. Now I have to pay the fee and wait for @CISASUK

  • Astrid_BTW Astrid (@Astrid_BTW) reported

    @virginmedia I definitely never set up a password. I ended up setting one for the first time yesterday on the phone, but when I went on live chat later in the evening it didn't work so the guy wouldn't help me either.

  • 1life_liveit15 ben mcgrath (@1life_liveit15) reported

    @virginmedia 2/2 nor does it seem to be a problem for any other WiFi provide. Please log this is a complaint and arrange for us to move providers free of charge as we are being trapped by you with extortionate charges and paying for a service we can’t use. It’s unacceptable.

  • clairewhyte12 claire whyte (@clairewhyte12) reported

    @virginmedia internet didn’t work all night and now it’s off more than on. Done all the checks and reset and called the status line. No date or time for a fix. Seriously??
