    @bazza141 @virginhelp @virginmedia Join the club. I spent over 1hr 30 mins trying to get a issue resolved . I kept getting through to their over-seas call centres . It took almost 20 call re-tries to get through to a young lady over in Newcastle ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜ž. It's rediculous that they got call centres in 17 countries.

    @virginmedia Hi, I'm tweeting from the device I'm having connectivity and signal issues with, I've looked on the website and it's not stating if you're having network issues or not.

    @virginmedia Hi, my broadband has just gone off is there a known issue in my area or do I need to book an engineer ?

  • LawAspi
    TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia Considering my router is a 1gbps it shouldn't be an issue. However even with wired it'll vary between 15mbps and 110mbps. However our average over a month is 53.6mbps, which is less than half the speed we pay for ๐Ÿ˜ณ.

    @virginmedia Yeah I've seen that already thanks, but it's not going to help the kids with accessing homework online. no I am not on a B account as of yet as I have only just started out in the last week ๐Ÿ˜‘ but even if I was on a B account it would still be off so doesn't make any difference

    @virginmedia Yes it works on my phone browser, but not on laptop, so I'll just continue using that method, thanks. One more question; Why do your customer support agents ask for a security password that I use when speaking to an agent, despite being a new customer and haven't set this up yet

    @virginmedia your broadband is down again ๐Ÿคฌ

    @virginmedia new customer trying to register on your media app always comes up with an error code!!!! Not a great start......may cancel if this is how you roll ??

    @virginmedia Afternoon, I have an iPad with a Virgin SIM card that I no longer use. Obviously still need to pay off the monthly device fee but am I able to cancel the SIM plan?

  • shazzawarrior18
    Sharon Wilmot (@shazzawarrior18) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Yep shows outrage and estimated fix time which varies then text and email to say fixed but still nothing had 15 messages to say fixed one a few seconds ago but it's not and still showing outrage on the app hard to check this when no services very disappointed with the service

  • TheRealRagtag
    Stephen Murtagh (@TheRealRagtag) reported from Penwortham, England

    @virginmedia No email access for 3 days now on the blueyonder access. All I get is "Oops, this page is broken." System says nothing is wrong. Terrible. I have done a check, and it says everything is working correctly on BBand/Telly. ??? Area 01.

  • 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?

  • Elle83
    Michelle E (@Elle83) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @virginmedia why does my super hub 3 keep resetting my WiFi password. Iโ€™m having to change it through settings every other day because it keeps defaulting back to the security key, this is causing major issues

  • wightpie
    Wightpie (@wightpie) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia Also given that link is for postal marketing how exactly does that help with phone calls? As it stands your systems are non-compliant

  • Adzcantsing
    Adz can't sing (@Adzcantsing) reported from Penwortham, England

    @virginmedia useless we are trying to cancel and for past 2 weeks now since we have moved home. We have been pushed from pillar to post, been laughed at by customer service. Since we moved we have we've been promised someone will come and sort it.

    @virginmedia Now showing estimated "fix" time of 16:00. 21 hours without "service". This. Is. Not. Funny.

  • anthony_murphy1
    Anthony Murphy (@anthony_murphy1) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia is there a way for me to find out if my phone number has been leaked or involved in any form of data breach as I've been getting daily phone calls from people pretending to be you? Never anyone else so just intrigued.

  • TheRealRagtag
    Stephen Murtagh (@TheRealRagtag) reported from Penwortham, England

    Not very often I say good things about @virginmedia but todays service was excellent. Peter sorted out Wi-fi problem, wavered the set up fee, and arranged a new hub after lots of line tests. Thank you. (But will have no service for 6 days in all.๐Ÿ™„ Refund?)

  • Christerphurr
    Chris Mann (@Christerphurr) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia It just says to book an engineer, but I donโ€™t want to book it incase itโ€™s an external issue which will be fixed

    @wrighty1707 @virginmedia the company is a complete joke, i was paying ยฃ56 a month for 1gig and the last 2 months were atrocious for connection the best they could do was send patronising emails saying it was my issue, so i switched to EE 1.6gig for ยฃ35 a month with unlimited mobile data to boot

  • DamianHastie
    Damian Hastie (@DamianHastie) reported

    @virginmedia do you want help with your customer service bot? It would appear that you must be losing a lot of revenue with current setup. I could improve your service quickly & make a significant increase on your bottom line. I need 2 additional boxes, can't add to my account!

    @andycrfc.bsky.social (@AndyRFCCharman) reported

    Just spent best part of day trying to sort out issues with @British_Airways & @virginmedia Both seem to be competing for โ€˜Worst Customer Serviceโ€™ award although BA winning because Iโ€™m at least speaking more or less real time with a human at VM, albeit making little progress!
