    @virginmedia / Super disappointed after calling to renew my contract and as an existing customer you can’t offer anything half as good as a new customer. Shocking customer retention strategy 🤯

    @virginmedia I have numerous emails of my complaint , all of them paying lip service so to speak .

  • tuite_liz
    Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia Can you check that I will be receiving a credit on my next bill as it has been down since Friday afternoon and I don’t think it will be fixed by 12pm today, I think that time will get changed again.

  • CallyRaven
    Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @virginmedia And our Internet is down again this morning! So because its intermittent we don't get compensation, tried to call, can't get through (have to do it on mobile, our 'landline' is now internet reliant!)

    Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I spoke to your customer service team on 2nd January who advised all issues had been resolved and my sim card was being sent out by royal mail delivery. Even with any postal delays out of your control it seems odd that it hasn't arrived.

  • roslers_vest
    Scott Moseley (@roslers_vest) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia well the woeful service in Heywood continues after “fixing” the fault this morning which resulted in me being unable to work from home the network has dropped again this evening absolutely shocking service

  • johnsonhomes2
    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.

    @virginmedia im guessing technical support ain’t working ? Got no tv and can’t get any help

  • johnsonhomes2
    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

    Gemma ≅ (@SimpaticoGem) reported from Walkden, England

    Tell me why with my @virginmedia wifi and my @O2 phone contract, MY WIFI CUTS OUT CONSTANTLY AND I HAVE NO SOGNAL ANYWHERE I GO?! Thought being a customer of you both was supposed to reap massive benefits for me?

  • _AdamGardiner
    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.

    @beverleyturner @virginmedia Virgin Media had gone ****. Poor broadband, crappie TV channels and half don't even work.

  • bludav_andrew
    👽 (@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

  • tuite_liz
    Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia Could the problems in the area have caused damage to the equipment? As it was working fine before. Do I get compensation for all this time as the earliest appointment is Friday 14th?

  • thechilledpanda
    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.

    @virginmedia Gadget Rescue overseas don’t really know how to help - plus 3x tech people. Please advise how to reach the cancel service team please. Thank you

  • The_Broski_Boot

    @virginmedia Is there anything you can offer to help us out ? I have to work and we have no entertainment for the evening / weekend

  • NadineD_G
    Nadine_CCN (@NadineD_G) reported

    @virginmedia more than 24 hours of no internet service in the E4 area. I’m seeing people saying that this has gone on for days with them. How can we confirm that our service will be up and running by the suggested time? I have work to do and this is really causing a delay.

  • The_Broski_Boot
    AJ (@The_Broski_Boot) reported

    @virginmedia The estimated fix time was initially reported to be 6 May at 1pm Then we got told today at 6pm Now it’s back to 6 May at 1pm Surely we cannot be left without broadband and TV until Wednesday? Ref : F012271473

  • nameHarryPalmer
    Sarah (@nameHarryPalmer) reported

    @entrustTMF @virginmedia That's ludicrous! So an engineer couldn't be bothered to fix the "noise" and just cut you off?

  • ColinBurman
    Colin Burman (@ColinBurman) reported

    @virginmedia I currently have a contract with Virgin Media for a mobile phone which I wish to terminate can you please advise me of a number I can call to sort this matter out Unfortunately I cannot call 202 because the current phone is broken Thank You Colin Burman

    Good old @virginmedia down yet again. Need to find a reliable provider. Sick of this.

  • karenwigg1
    karen (@karenwigg1) reported

    @virginmedia since having new TV box installed, I am now awaiting my 3rd visit from an engineer to fix yet another problem. Getting a bit fed up with this now.

  • TYS20212
    Told You So (@TYS20212) reported

    @Oxford_Life @virginmedia The new tv box is absolutely abysmal, the worst “upgrade” in history. If it wasn’t for lack of high speed broadband alternatives here we would be off like a shot.

    Harry (@Rzchy) reported
