    @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

    @martinmcnally53 @virginmedia It’s supposed to be some super fast internet but it’s broken more than it works and can’t change because of the contract

  • DenMagic
    Den (@DenMagic) reported from Dunmurry, Northern Ireland

    Once again, @virginmedia dropping speeds and service going down in Dunmurry. No one can help and they don't respond to complaints but they are hiking price next month 🤔 #virginmediadown

    @virginmedia Hello, I have an ongoing issue with my Broadband Can you assist me please.

  • SeanJPMcKee
    Seán MacAoidh (@SeanJPMcKee) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I opted out of marketing, it’s from your sales team trying to stop my from switching my service, it’s overkill especially as I’ve already had the conversation with your agents about it.

  • Flomoll
    Annie Mc Cartney (@Flomoll) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Just another day of poor @virginmedia service. Going crazy. All that money and useless service. Can’t get through on phone. Insane.

  • 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

    Ffs @virginmedia fed up with these network blackouts recently! I’m gonna find another provider at this rate 🙃 😡

  • beezlebum
    Sir Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia No! It's your issue with your equipment. You should be keeping me, as a valued customer, informed. I've spent hours listening to crap music waiting to get information about this. Then being lied to. Do better.

  • 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

    @virginmedia Still no WiFi in the house and no on hold for another 55min today all I need is an engineer out as the boost you keep doing is not working no matter how many times I boos reboot the system? I’m sure an engineer can solve the problem please just send one out.

  • TrevorAKilleen
    Trevor Killeen (@TrevorAKilleen) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Yet a new LOW in crappy “customer service” from @Virginmedia - letter saying they have been trying to contact me (still waiting for a callback from 26/8/20) no attempts made and to text a number to get someone to contact me ...... guess what an automated system that gets

  • StripeyMiata
    Jonathan McCormack (@StripeyMiata) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland

    @asa_thorp Virgin Media are worse to cancel, believe me.

  • beezlebum
    Sir Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia you've surpassed yourselves this time! 50 days without broadband and yet another promised date of reconnection passed with no communication or explanation. I refuse to waste another sunny weekend waiting for your useless 'customer services' to lie to me.

  • niscaffolding
    Robert Andrews (@niscaffolding) reported from Whiteabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia tried for over a week now to sort my WiFi out managed to get talking to one of your guys today who couldn’t fix the problem. I was told he will call back in 30min with nothing can someone HELP?

  • beezlebum
    Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

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

  • bernardmccabe
    Ben McCabe (@bernardmccabe) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia 4 days since internet cut off and still no sign of fixing it. While I’m paying a stupid amount for the privilege.

    @virginmedia @Sathnam What about helping the original poster @PippaCrerar as well, or do you only help famous people?

    @celticghirl_bee @Gerrykeogh2002 @virginmedia If they bump up the prices unexpectedly mid contract you have the right to cancel as they are in breach of contract! You can contact them to remove the increase or cancel altogether #ThatsTheLaw!

    @obbsie @virginmedia Hence I left and went to @SkyUK Their call centre isn’t a machine, and if you’re not happy with the initial contact ask to speak to a supervisor and problems do get resolved.

  • Mrhalfandhalf8
    Samuel Pierce (@Mrhalfandhalf8) reported

    @virginmedia hi virgin now a other problem since my Internet went down when I reported it the advisor said they should put 15 pound credit on my bill hasn't happen as it was down for that long.

  • Samina_masood3
    Samina Masood (@Samina_masood3) reported

    @virginmedia we’ve had complete loss of internet since 2/5/26 due to broken cable, yet no proper fix or technician visit despite repeated promises. Instead, you sent someone to “clean router” & logged it as speed issue not total outage. It is unacceptable. Plz resolve urgently

  • RonTamblo
    Tamblo (@RonTamblo) reported

    @virginmedia Virgin media is the worst business to get answers from . Either trying to actually speak to someone rather than a Bott who doesn’t understand. Trying to upgrade due to constant messages saying my box needs upgrade and getting no help is a joke !!!!

  • crispinlewis
    Chip Lewis (@crispinlewis) reported

    @Huxleypiguk @virginmedia Bob, I’ve had the same issue for the last 3 hours! Beyond a joke!! Any luck?

  • AndyRunningman
    Andy (@AndyRunningman) reported

    @virginmedia how long is the wait for customer services. Been on hold for 30mins. Have a problem with my tv box. Non of the diagnostics works. Been like it for weeks. Loosing the will to live trying to fix it!

  • old_stephen
    Stephen Old German - English Translator (@old_stephen) reported

    @virginmedia You don't have nearly enough proper shops, or even telephone help lines, where I can get help with your products. Now you have made it even more difficult for me to log into my account online. What is the point of being a Virgin customer?

  • Emer49034181
    Emerfly66 @CLLIreland @LCovidirl. #Free Palestine (@Emer49034181) reported

    Not only that but they said they’d call me to discuss next steps . What next steps @VirginMediaIE ?!! What could I possibly contribute to solving the issue. This isn’t good enough @virginmedia. I have friends also experiencing problems with VM .

  • Steven12109
    Steven (@Steven12109) reported

    @virginmedia I've been on hold for one hour and 20 minutes, to correct a mistake on your billing! You really are a crap company!

  • andyduncan84
    Andy Duncan (@andyduncan84) reported

    @virginmedia I’m having problems with your newly installed service. Your chat service is rubbish & I’ve been on hold for over 45mins! This is not a great start! Someone better get in touch with me soon or I’ll be cancelling my direct debit!
