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

    @virginmedia I seem to be the first one to report them, still saying intermittent problems in my area. Can't get to speak to anyone on phone, I rely on the Internet.

  • 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!)

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

    @virginmedia 3 times in 3 weeks we are without internet! We are paying for a service we are not able to use! Are we going to be compensated for this?

  • barrys59 Barry Slater (@barrys59) reported from Barton upon Irwell, England

    @virginmedia still no service M27. 4th hour! Rubbish!

  • LindzDDub Lindz Devine (@LindzDDub) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia I have to say your Internet connection is ridiculous... for months on end, it's been shocking. I'm sick and tired of resetting my hub, I shouldn't be having this issue. Never had so much issue for the years I've had you and now, the past 6 months, I'm paying monies…

  • Samuel_J_Mc Sam (@Samuel_J_Mc) reported from Timperley, England

    @virginmedia customer service is so ****. They just transfer you round to different departments

  • EmsydilemsyL Emma Latham (@EmsydilemsyL) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia advice please! I’ve been a customer for over ten years and am also an o2 customer and my account is now going up by another £12 per month on a pretty basic package! Phoned twice and been told that someone will get back to me with a new price package - still nothing

  • EmmaZhaan64 Emma (@EmmaZhaan64) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia All internet is down, wireless and wired; the hub light is white and it’s a Hub 3.0.

  • EmmaZhaan64 Emma (@EmmaZhaan64) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia according to your representative my wifi is working perfectly and I don’t have any issues! That’s a bit odd considering I no service what so ever!

  • hall291 Pauline Hall (@hall291) reported from Halton, England

    @virginmedia how am I supposed to run an online tutoring business from home when your system goes down twice in a day ? #payingmorebutgettingless

  • elisabethhilto4 Elisabeth Hilton (@elisabethhilto4) reported from Lowton, England

    @virginmedia Been signed up to a contract I specifically asked not to be. Unable to get through on the phone and your online complaint submission form does not work. Can someone please contact me urgently

  • elisabethhilto4 Elisabeth Hilton (@elisabethhilto4) reported from Lowton, England

    @virginmedia Trying to make a complaint - signed up to a deal I clearly asked not to be. Your website doesn’t work and can’t get through on the phone. Can someone please dm me with a way to speak to someone urgently

  • HollowayAlec Alec Holloway (@HollowayAlec) reported from Stretford, England

    @virginmedia is unbelievable that our Internet is so poor, trying to contact someone via phone on numerous occasions waiting for over 45 minutes to speak with someone. Still haven't been able to get through to anyone.

  • LindzDDub Lindz Devine (@LindzDDub) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp I've never had this much issue as I have had today. I'm plugged in on ethernet, I've reset my hub, and checked my area and there is no issue at all. My WiFi is working from my hub but yet its booting me out of Destiny 2 and not just that but the chat parties on PS5 itself

  • timmycooke Tim Cooke 🇺🇦 (@timmycooke) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Both wired and wireless. We've had 8 engineers out, a rewire, new hub and still endless drop outs. Was told finally it was an upload issue from the amp that supplied the box on the street. But still we're having issues. The 150 number is joke, make it simple!!!

  • jmcloughlin Jamie McLoughlin (@jmcloughlin) reported from Liverpool, England

    Anyone having @virginmedia issues in Liverpool area? Our TV has been showing static for the past half hour.

  • Duddydudson Kevin Dudson (@Duddydudson) reported from Wigan, England

    @NigelJTurner @virginmedia Same for me, I can cancel or change my package by the 28th of march then get a 19% increase on my new package on the 1st of April. Only had my contract 5 months.being **** Turpind here!!!

  • BLTwitchy Berni Turner 🖤🌹 (@BLTwitchy) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia No I’m not an idiot it was during covid I’ll go back and find it . The chief execs office rang me personally as I’m disabled

  • TheWiganParky Laser Lux, Wigan. (@TheWiganParky) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia It says there's no issues at the moment, but I'm only getting 13mbps.

  • TheWiganParky Laser Lux, Wigan. (@TheWiganParky) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia If my bill went down with my speed, I wouldn't mind.

  • funtime10 Gillingham Gooner🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@funtime10) reported

    @virginmedia My entire Virgin Media service TV, broadband, and phone has been down since around 3:30pm today in Gillingham, Kent. When I try to log into your website or app, it doesn’t recognise my details, & can’t check service status updates. When will Services resume?

  • PaulKea24336362 Paul Kearney (@PaulKea24336362) reported

    @virginmedia Whole service a shambles! No investment in your networks! I’ll try again but the bot takes you in circles! Some would say deliberately! Virgin media should be ashamed of how they treat their customers and the woeful services provided or not as the case maybe!

  • Skiddy140 Mark Allenby (@Skiddy140) reported

    @virginmedia If I call you! That’s the reason for my X message. You can’t get through because of your inept customer service. I will be cancelling so thank you T least for that but I doubt if I get through. Virgin Media customer service are a laughing stock!

  • marccit1962 marc citron (@marccit1962) reported

    @virginmedia I have tried 3 times to call virgin media about a faulty TV box. It is impossible to actually speak to someone. They ask to send me a text, I give them my mobile and then they say it cannot be done and hang up. Disgusting customer service.

  • ant_donald ant donald (@ant_donald) reported

    @virginmedia @patriciacobian @LutzSchueler For 2+ years we’ve endured Virgin Media’s appalling, incompetent service. As a “goodwill gesture” you added Disney+, which we never asked for or used - then charged us for it. We cancelled all services, yet are still being billed.

  • PaulDoe73877632 Paul Doe (@PaulDoe73877632) reported

    @virginmedia I just need an engineer to visit and sort out the landline phone which has never worked since switching to virgin media, it's my dad's account he's 90 and has medical issues so a phone is vital, he can't use a mobile phone. Trying to speak to someone is impossible.

  • CTodd_ALBAParty Colin Todd (@CTodd_ALBAParty) reported

    @virginmedia The problem is with Virgin Media - you carried out work 2 days ago in Falkirk and the internet and Tv were off for hours - Today, without scheduled work, it's been down again for hours - this isn't a reliable service.

  • Mist_Ree Mr Ree (@Mist_Ree) reported

    After 24 years with Virgin Media @virginmedia their tier 2 ‘customer relations’ team made little effort with wanting to retain my business...oh well @skytv , @bt_uk please get in contact with your best broadband and tv packages. Need new services by 4th July #virginmedia

  • CTodd_ALBAParty Colin Todd (@CTodd_ALBAParty) reported

    @virginmedia Falkirk and Virgin Media down for the second time this week- no warning, no explanation, and no repairs

  • DeborahTaylor3 Debbie 💜 🦋🦉 (@DeborahTaylor3) reported

    @virginmedia Finally after 25 minutes, complaint raised and closed and passed to someone who finally gave me the information required. Information that should've been sent via email or postal mail. You seriously need a designated customer service contact number like Sky, BT, Plusnet, EE
