  • obendorf
    Simon Obendorf (@obendorf) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia No. Trying to upgrade to a faster broadband-only plan. Chat can’t do it because cancelling the landline I don’t use is heretical. Fastest broadband speeds require me to take a SIM I don’t want or need. Online tries to push a TV service. No one listens. Customer fumes.

    @virginmedia I would like to cancel my contract it’s finished September 11th

    @virginmedia I’ve given up. You’ve failed yet again to provide what I we needed. I’m not surprised. Virgin Media is fast becoming synonymous with this lack of service. I do NOT recommend you to friends and family.

  • ImpAngel1
    Imp & Angel (@ImpAngel1) reported from North Hykeham, England

    Extremely frustrated and disappointed at the very poor service we're receiving from @vmbusiness as we bring five new phone contracts over from EE. No reply to emails, no returned tel calls. #unacceptable

    @virginmedia any chance of you sorting out the broadband issue in and around Lincoln. It's been going on for a couple of hours

    Obi-Dan (@djn2911) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    My @virginmedia wifi does not reach my bedroom and they are not selling anymore of their new mesh network pods so i am thinking of leaving them. Any recommendations for good wifi providers?

  • SkyAlicry
    AlicrySky (@SkyAlicry) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia After an hour and ten minutes of appalling noise the woman who put us back on hold disconnected us. Five minutes into the new call and all we want to do now is cancel the contract that you’ve failed to provide.

    Matthew Cooper (@Matthew56242945) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    Virgin Media fixed the phone issue, a local fault, so I rang Royal Mail to get my money back. The phone went out again during the call. If I was a person with anxiety and depression issues this might be a major problem. Oh wait, I am a person.....

    @virginmedia Thanks - will do if it persists but it would be so much easier to have live help or an email link rather than focusing on pushing the 'community' to help ourselves.

    @virginmedia This was 14 days ago (17/09/2020), and I cannot remember the website, and the network engineer advised (19/09/202) me it might 24 hours before it settled .... Since then it's been variable ....

    @virginmedia I do really get fed up with VirginMedias poor service and platitudes. The speed on my internet connection is down less than 56kb, but your Helpdesk technicians consider this to be a problem

    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply. I've only got one account with you and have used the same email - I have been receiving emails about my bills & offers etc but can't sign in online.

    @virginmedia no cable tv in Erdington/Sutton Area (Birmingam), went down last night. Can you fix it please asking for a friend @villa4ever29

    @virginmedia Yes I have: it says estimated fix time 5.08 which is brilliant as I’m supposed to be working from home!!

    @ryantegan @skytv My @virginmedia runs out end of September, £126 a month. They can shove their new deal. I only kept in the first place for the missus, but when she died last year I couldn’t wait for it to run down and I could bin it. So damned expensive.

  • AlisonBaines4
    Alison Baines (@AlisonBaines4) reported

    @virginmedia We reported an issue with our virgin internet being down on 20/8. Came home from a weeks holiday today still not sorted Open reach have been doing work outside our house and all your team have said they can send someone 31/8.This is not acceptableHow do we escalate?

  • AnthonyHoc69184
    Anthony Hockey (@AnthonyHoc69184) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve done that many times and it keeps happening, so as I said before, it’s either bc yr equipment is reconditioned or bc yr equipment outside is poor. Maybe I’ll see how sky tv is before I make a decision re my contract next August

  • robiand
    Rob (@robiand) reported

    @virginmedia TV and Broadband broken for over a week after your engineers damaged the cable to my house whilst installing a new customer. Repair should have been Saturday, was cancelled and rescheduled for yesterday, cancelled! and now cancelled again today. I’m moving to @skytv

  • anandcheam
    Anand Gupta (@anandcheam) reported

    @virginmedia can you spend some money on customer care so they can answer calls / chats and LISTEN when they do ? You guys sent me 2016 router box when the agreement was to send the latest and now no one is licking up the phone, is that joke? @Ofcom British regulators need to penalise where it starts hurting the service company. Like they do in the USA, 100s of millions of pounds or billions. Not peanuts.

    @VirginMediaNews Note to Virgin Media : stop platforming that religious zealot and fantasist - even at the opportunity cost re: a young journalist's tv screen time & professional exposure. He's on his way back to prison when another warrant comes down from the bench, in coming days and weeks.

    @virginmedia I am having wi fi issues now, I haven’t been able to access the red button on sky sports for some time now and frankly I’m fed up. Please can you advise on the current wi fi issues and what options I have for exiting my contract without penalty
