    @virginmedia No. You have proved beyond a shadow of a doubt your customer service is beyond useless.

    @virginmedia I upgraded my channels on Friday via telephone (after a wk of trying) and they are still not accessible. Can you help fix this pls?

    Adrian Boyd (@boyd_ar) reported from Jordanstown, Northern Ireland

    @JAcheson_Eng @virginmedia I’m sure they all have issues at some point although I’ve had Sky Fibre Broadband and it’s been very good and the service support over the phone has been really excellent. I had an issue recently and it was sorted in 30 minutes over the phone.

    @virginmedia worst service ever. Who can I speak to about cancelling a contract that has never gone more than 3 days without freezing and buffering?

  • DrRichCollins
    Richard Collins (@DrRichCollins) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Two calls to 150 left me with little confidence that issue would be resolved. Neither seemed to know what was going on... VM have my number so I would appreciate if someone with some technical knowledge could call me. You’re currently not providing the service I’m paying for

  • HarbourLord
    Harbour 💚 (@HarbourLord) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia you have the worst laid out website. All I'm trying to do is speak to someone on chat to figure out why I have zero upload speed right now and honestly thinking of just cancelling my broadband contract because your site is so unfriendly for customers to navigate.

    Victoria Gillespie (@Torig1983) reported from Dunmurry, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Working now but annoying as has taken most of afternoon up... now waiting for pc to reboot and virgin media chat doesn't work on phone so kept being given to runaround and redirected to faq pages. .such a faff

    @virginmedia Oh for many a useless hour. We then spotted engineers outside. He said he wasn’t here to install internet, but to find Toby box. I said it’s there, someone dug it up 3 weeks ago. He said someone couldn’t find it during the week. Short story, it’s found please help

    @virginmedia hi, I’d like to file an official complaint about a manager who refused to pass us higher than his position, tried to force us to cancel our service and threatened to close the case while it’s still unresolved

  • AmandaFBelfast
    Amanda Ferguson (@AmandaFBelfast) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Hi. It now 4 hours since I started trying to resolve your billing mistake using your WhatsApp messaging service. I have had to explain myself more than half a dozen times. Please check the details and resolve the matter asap. Thank you. Amanda

    Ian Moran (@ianmoran) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    So is YouTube buffering a thing now ? Running Speedtest on my Apple TV i get 330/40 with Virgin Media and yet pretty much all videos will initially have buffering issues

    Jonathan carey (@carey_jonathan) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Broadband **** itself for 10/15mins. Same this last week. Glad I signed up for another 18 months and paying £3 extra a month for this muck

    @sabele26 @Kat_Bee_123 @virginmedia Terrible none of them have good customer service, sky's as bad.

  • Pascalstil
    Pascal Stil (@Pascalstil) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia The housemate who's connection it is has been in contact many times, apparently on Monday he was told permission was needed from the account holder of the new connection, who jas not been contacted about that, and it also sounds too stupid to be true

  • adammccalden
    Adam McCalden (@adammccalden) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia since my virgin mobile UK signal has been shifted from piggyback Vodafone to @O2 it has been a complete disaster, constant signal dropping, constant WiFi calling cutting. This is before my account has been transferred to O2. Complete and utter rubbish

    andrew willett (@willywillett) reported

    @MrBenGrant @virginmedia They are absolutely awful, after we've recently had issues i rang and arranged for an engineer to come out, guess what? They never showed up! Not even a message to say sorry or a call to apologise for the inconvenience of waiting in..😡

  • kimtaylor18
    Kim Taylor (@kimtaylor18) reported

    Apparently now it’s not me it’s a network issue in the area… again!!!! Only taken a day to figure that out 🫣 awful @virginmedia

  • ThingsByNik
    Nik (@ThingsByNik) reported

    @SparkyLotus @youfibre I’ve had You Fibre and Virgin Media knocking last few last weeks, so seems it’s still a thing for broadband sales. I always say that I will never buy anything that someone knocks at my house to sell.

    @MICHAELEMERS0N @virginmedia It’s pathetic. What could have happened to warrant approximately 8 days before a fix can happen??

    jamie (@JMRGBY_) reported

    @j0nfuzz @virginmedia Oh we will - I’ve had to go into the office every day because I can no longer work from home while this is down. My data is almost entirely drained. They’re ***************.
