Gemma ≅ (@SimpaticoGem) reported from Walkden, EnglandTell me why with my @virginmedia wifi and my @O2 phone contract, MY WIFI CUTS OUT CONSTANTLY AND I HAVE NO SIGNAL ANYWHERE I GO?! Thought being a customer of you both was supposed to reap massive benefits for me?
-
johnsonhomes (@johnsonhomes2) reported from Sale, England@virginmedia If that was the only issue than yes that would be the logical next step. But as you’ll see from the previous tweets and email sent on Wednesday it isn’t. All the issues need dealing with in the round or otherwise I’ll have to cancel and go back to sky.
-
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?
-
Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England@virginmedia I looked and that says it’s from the day I registered the total loss of service which was yesterday but really it should be from Friday afternoon when I did the online chat. If I DM you can you check?
-
Anthony Taylor (@anttaylor23) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia The what's app line is fine, your advisers don't seem like they want to keep me as a customer. Well not for a decent price anyway 👀
-
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
-
Nick Lowden (@nick_lowden) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia can’t get on service checker as app says it is out of service. Internet has gone down in M20 ?? When should it be fixed?
-
alex. (@blokealex) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia Complaint is about billing after cancellation, your staff refusing to process my request to cancel and being told a different thing every time I call back… it’s been awful.

Dan (@DanJeoryPhoto) reportedAnyone else in the Chester, NW region having problems with their @virginmedia broadband service? Been down all morning #chestertweets
-
Veronica Dodd (@Vonk9) reported@WHUbluesman @virginmedia They denied there was a problem when I rang. Sent out an engineer who told me there was a known problem. What's the excuse?????
-
Ryan (@SarkySodRyan) reported@virginmedia And given I'm already annoyed - don't ask me if I've switched it off and back on again. Of course I have. It still doesn't work.
-
Gram (@Gram7070707070) reported@Carolestfc1 @virginmedia Worst company I have ever dealt with and it's not even close. They'll screw your credit rating by mistake and never, ever fix it. They'll hang up on you, the staff don't put notes on accounts and you have to tell the same story to 20 different disinterested call centre staff.
-
Alan Roberts (@AlanRob68902430) reported@alexand979677 @virginmedia grounds to terminate the contract folks
-
Craig Sutton (@CraigSu66242369) reported@virginmedia @alexand979677 Customers shouldn't have to compromise. We have all paid for a service which we are currently not getting. It's a disgrace really considering the cost. Maybe time for a change.
-
Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reportedDay 23 without our @virginmedia broadband (or phone, or TV) so I’ve celebrated by spending 90 minutes on hold with the “Customer Services” team and responding to the email from the Complaints team telling me that they had fixed my issue (spoiler: they hadn’t). Pathetic!
-
James Harding (@Harding85Jh) reported@virginmedia Again @virginmedia still hasn't fixed the problem regarding red button what a shambles
-
IAmTheSavageSho (@IAmTheSavageSho) reported@virginmedia count your days WiFi has gone down in Colne Lancashire can't even play the new Zombies Map Rex Infernus because of it 🥀💔
-
A.Brown (@_DundeePerfect_) reported@timtam1888 @heid_the_baw_ @virginmedia The problem many have with connection Speeds in other Rooms has partly nothing to do with the size of the Router, it is down to using wifi and not wired by Cable. All rooms for best results need wired, my own wifi I can't even get sat outside my own House never mind game with it.
