    @virginmedia Thank you @virginmedia for completely ignoring issues and directing me from helpline to Twitter to virgin community to then say need to ring the helpline- notice that you have also won the award of keeping customers longest on phone- will not be renewing my contract waste time

  • porlmurf Murph (@porlmurf) reported from Tyldesley, England

    @big_kev_83 @virginmedia @MENnewsdesk Yeah, bonus points if they point at whatever the problem is (pothole, loose paving etc)

  • geordiemanc70 GeordieManc (@geordiemanc70) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia @Kabatan7 Oh bollocks. You gave me the same "busier than normal" line in January. Hopelessly understaffed "customer service" for all of the last 10 years. That's why you didn't remotely challenge my case with @CISASUK, just paid compensation. 1/2

  • Conuggy Christine C (@Conuggy) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginhelp @virginmedia absolutely ridiculous 3 weeks no service waited an hour to get through because I’m at work cannot arrange an engineer .. NO TEST REQUIRED IT IS NOT ABSOLUTELY NOT WORKING I HAVE HAD NO BROADBAND FOR NEARLY 3!weeks!!!! Disgusting

    Nice to see @virginmedia have just won keeping their customers waiting longest on phone- **** customer service do not use them

  • geordiemanc70 GeordieManc (@geordiemanc70) reported from Urmston, England

    You couldn't make it up. The day after we get a settlement from @virginmedia from our claim with the CISAS dispute service, they've just sent another customer satisfaction survey....

  • Barber1Paul Paul Barber (@Barber1Paul) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia We are due to have a new cable fitted outside as we have had months of issues which I have contacted virgin about regularly leading to an engineers visit. The engineers suggested updating our boxes and getting some pods to assist with signal- just ring up. Which I did no good

  • 1sophiereynolds Sophie Reynolds (@1sophiereynolds) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia hi, I currently have no internet. I’ve ran a service check in my area and apparently it’s fine. I am WFH so need to get online immediately. Can anybody assist please?

  • katiem8y Kate McLean (@katiem8y) reported from Poynton, England

    @virginmedia we have invested in a new router as we’re having endless issues with yours but now we’ve got pixelated channels on the tv. Any ideas how we can sort? Thanks

  • DianeHilton20 Diane Hilton-Wainwright (@DianeHilton20) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia why don’t you solve my intermittent internet problem and why do your chat people ignore me? Poor poor service . I will be voting with my feet .

  • harris_group_uk Victoria Harris (@harris_group_uk) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia It says no issues but the entire area has no Virgin Media.

  • Jennnnnn_x jennnnnn 🌎 (@Jennnnnn_x) reported from Urmston, England

    How do @virginmedia get away with charging an early cancellation fee because we are moving house (less than one mile away) when its impossible for them to provide a service... £240!!!!!!

  • Jennnnnn_x jennnnnn 🌎 (@Jennnnnn_x) reported from Urmston, England

    @geog_trainee @virginmedia Im on phonecall 4. They claimed my complaint would get my nowhere and i may as well give up.

  • jehsuey johnconroy (@jehsuey) reported from Oldham, England

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • MrBradteaches Mr B (@MrBradteaches) reported

    Think twice before buying anything from @virginmedia folks. Fiancée distraught after 2 hours on the phone trying to cancel our deal. Front line worker told she could get a new deal, transferred, mucked around and call handlers LAUGHING with managers at her. Absolute disgrace.

  • Dinsedale Dinsedale (@Dinsedale) reported

    @virginmedia Hi the whole of my part of Wiltshire has been without internet, phone or tv for 7 hours. Theres next to no phone signal and none of us know whats going on?

  • jamienewman Jamie Newman (@jamienewman) reported

    @jasonholland @virginmedia My parents have VM and have awful service. Tried their WhatsApp support while I was there at Christmas and it was surprisingly painless, although it took a couple of hours of messages back and forth with delayed replies to get a resolution.

  • ChantalYale Chantal Yale (@ChantalYale) reported

    @virginmedia Unfortunately you can help. Your router is rubbish and WiFi doesn't reach around the whole house, you don't do a WiFi guarantee and we've had engineers out, so there's nothing left to do except leave, thank you though.

  • markindittons dittonsguy (@markindittons) reported

    @virginmedia Can you look into the customer experience when attempting to use online chat and WhatsApp? The chat function uses a tiny font, with grey text on a light grey which makes it really difficult to read particularly on a mobile device. I’ve been answering the same questions all day.

  • MrBradteaches Mr B (@MrBradteaches) reported

    @virginmedia No, they discussed £143, which they knew we couldn't afford. After which, they dropped the same package to £140. We then asked to cancel, were transferred to someone who built what we asked for at £93. Then we were transferred again to be told it didn't exist (1/2)

  • denise_chesters Denise Chesters (@denise_chesters) reported

    @virginmedia My uncle has gone into a nursing home and I need to close his account. Also I’m not a virgin customer so it would cost me to ring from my phone

  • Charlotte_lg Charlotte Grannell (@Charlotte_lg) reported

    @virginmedia I upgraded my package and was told on the call the price of the new package was £89 which included internet, tv, phone, a virgin SIM l and an o2 SIM. I then received a bill of £148. I rung to query this and I am awaiting a resolution but since had an email to say it’s resolved?

  • tollsterster tollsterster (@tollsterster) reported

    @virginmedia 😳 I've just said what the problem is if you'd like to reread

  • Rybo_Senpai Ryan Thomson (@Rybo_Senpai) reported

    @virginmedia And the intermittency of it then less than 1mb connection speeds, it is essentially meaning I will be having absolutely no service at all period
