  • Davogray David Davo Gray (@Davogray) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia Thanks. I’m doing online checks at the moment. There are no problems in the area according to your checks. Just seems to happen a lot. It’s very frustrating and trying to speak to someone takes forever.

  • AndyPJo1 Andy Johnson Media (@AndyPJo1) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Said it would be fixed by 3pm - here we are at half four & still no service.

  • pcjcarter Pamela Carter (@pcjcarter) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia better sort their service out before 9pm for the #HandsmaidsTale 🤬🤬

  • SeanDoyle2 Sean Doyle (@SeanDoyle2) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia your customer service is appalling. You’ll be losing this customer.

  • knowmadiqx2x knowmadiqx2x (@knowmadiqx2x) reported from Manchester, England

    @JZief @virginmedia M19 levenshulme down too #virginmediabroadbandblues

  • AndyPJo1 Andy Johnson Media (@AndyPJo1) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia But it keeps happening time after time and it is so difficult to get through to a human being (someone in a call centre in India) & when you do there’s no explanation of why it keeps happening. I run two small businesses and am reliant on a god quality reliable internet service.

  • CaroleFossey Carole Fossey (@CaroleFossey) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia Your ‘efforts at customer service’ don’t appear to be working since I’ve not had a reply to my last tweet or Facebook message. But I am nothing if not persistent so I WILL keep trying until someone at virgin takes responsibility for offering some customer service #virginmedia

  • jakehowarthhh jake howarth (@jakehowarthhh) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia worst customer service I’ve ever received on hold for 20 minutes to then receive the news il be without WiFi for 24 hours and there’s nothing which can be done. Worst customer service going

  • rian951 Rian Murray (@rian951) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @virginmedia Well unless you can help with a booster - customer services wanted £360 for an EE one! Most other providers offer WiFi Calling!

  • textmaniaa Tracey Brooks (@textmaniaa) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia what's the point in sending a letter stating if yr service hasn't resumed by 5pm ring this number. When they shut at 5pm. Poor service again from virgin media. Nearly 8pm and still no tele or broadband. What a joke of a company.

  • CaroleFossey Carole Fossey (@CaroleFossey) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    Oh my god @virginmedia you installed our super fast 500mg broadband this week and since then we have had HALF the download we had before. You are impossible to reach by phone. Been on hold for over an hour to be cut off. Today zero internet. Sort it out or we cancel. #hopeless

  • CaroleFossey Carole Fossey (@CaroleFossey) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia Yes I don’t think so. You are certainly not marching with us. You haven’t replied to my tweets, answered my phone calls or made any effort at solving our problem. We upgraded to 500mg this week & have nothing but problems. Currently no internet. Thank god for @EE

  • p0welly Andy Powell (@p0welly) reported from Greenfield, England

    For the live of God @virginmedia stop digging and fix your bad practices.

  • p0welly Andy Powell (@p0welly) reported from Oldham, England

    @IanSlaterPhoto1 @libertygal72 Nope, the bank issue you a new PIN, it's not the same as knowing what your old PIN was. The issue isn't do much the post, it's storing passwords in plain text which @virginmedia have repeatedly claimed they don't do.

  • CaroleFossey Carole Fossey (@CaroleFossey) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    Thanks EE. Do you do home broadband cos @virginmedia are shockingly bad and has the WORST #customerservice I’ve had the misfortune to experience. #jobsworths apparently the machine Einstein “won’t let them” send out an engineer to fix the prob they caused.

  • CaroleFossey Carole Fossey (@CaroleFossey) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia And just to be clear. I’m fine with things not working properly. That happens. I’m not fine with a total lack of customer care.

  • Davogray David Davo Gray (@Davogray) reported from Stockport, England

    No internet again @virginmedia must be an idiot to pay £51 a month for this crap. Not for much longer.

  • Davogray David Davo Gray (@Davogray) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve done all the checks I’m supposed to do and it’s still not working.

  • CaroleFossey Carole Fossey (@CaroleFossey) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    For the second time today @virginmedia we have no #internet. Your super fast broadband is super slow. Your customer service is non existent. We have rang all week. Every day. Have not spoken to a human. We are cancelling your awful service. People #beware of #vigrinmedia.

  • AlanStockton11 Alan_MPS (@AlanStockton11) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia think you need to understand your customers are your business shocking speaking to your so called customer service team today didn’t care that my service has not worked now for a month, after a so called engineer was in my home for 5 mins saying all working 😢

  • tabsaoife Sam Rivers (@tabsaoife) reported

    Extremely poor @virginmedia Wi-Fi in SW14 area over recent weeks & this week a nightmare with this morning losing Wi-Fi completely. We are not a priority when phoning & need Wi-Fi to work. Anyone else finding the same problem? Paying a lot of money for bad service!

  • DaveyBoi73 Dave ♿️ Esq (@DaveyBoi73) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I used the service status and nothing showing. I use a cat 6 wired connection. I restart my modem at least once a week.

  • Ti_Knee TiKnee Tears (@Ti_Knee) reported

    @virginmedia Hub 3. I have been unable to access live chat. Can you help ?

  • megg_paul megan (@megg_paul) reported

    @virginmedia It’s great that your now ignoring me... well done, my husband said the connection (WIRED) is extremely poor, his VPN keeps dropping out how we are meant to work in those conditions I don’t know!

  • _EnglishRose_13 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🌹𝐽𝑜🌹🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@_EnglishRose_13) reported

    @gordonm25443977 @virginmedia They never give long term loyal customers the deals they offer to new customers.

  • TheRealMoscha Moscha (@TheRealMoscha) reported

    @YodelOnline virgin media have sent my setup kit out via your service, how can I track that parcel?

  • juliettegab juliette lambert (@juliettegab) reported

    @virginmedia I don’t know why it being public means you can’t help me?! Any representative from Virgin Media should be able to help a virgin customer otherwise what is the role of virgin media on Twitter? To promote the company name and products rather than actually helping their customers?!

  • Dorkfeatures Lauren Goodland ✊🏾 (@Dorkfeatures) reported

    @brontehoward @virginmedia It's so crap! It used to be fine pre-pandemic!

  • CurfTheRed Mick (@CurfTheRed) reported

    @virginmedia The router is constantly dropping out during the day and we lose signal to all devices. I have factory reset and you have sent 2 signals a reset but this is a constant frustration. WiFi signal is now poor but nothings changed in home.

  • spokee93 Spokee (@spokee93) reported

    @virginmedia The wasn’t I checked but I’d say it was more of a nationwide issue and because it was off on not many thought much about it
