  • wilsmadein85 Nathan Wilson (@wilsmadein85) reported from Boultham, England

    @virginmedia Every time i ring we get told to visit the website then the phone goes dead. And your still taking money for my dad's mobile! I'm amazed how incompetent your services are, do you get special training so you can be this crap?

  • Pogit Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia I’m still getting Mail saying it needs updating, but more importantly installers and CS need to ensure they’re installed correctly and why they’re needed. It’s not just for 999. 999 can take hours to attend Jane down the street can be here in minutes.

  • my_minxy MyMinxy (@my_minxy) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia Engineer came Friday, still no service on the phone for 10 hrs to 18 people Saturday, you closed my complaint with £10 credit that I never agreed to, yet still no service waiting for another engineer… my complaint IS NOT RESOLVED @virginmedia

  • my_minxy MyMinxy (@my_minxy) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia on the phone now for 3rd time as get cut off, no internet and NO HELP, it’s been over 24hrs now, I need the internet

  • RichardFarrell8 Richard Farrell (@RichardFarrell8) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    Looking for advice. Trying to cancel @virginmedia as they keep saying I owe them £168 but they should have credited me £70 but they have debited me instead. Made several calls over the past weeks to no joy. Logged a formal complaint to no avail. Advice is much appreciated 🤯

  • etheridg john etheridge (@etheridg) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia,I'm John etheridge,I've rung you twice now,yesterday+today+you've cut me off,this is disgusting!not v.professional,not keen about yr firm anymore,customer service is crap,please cancel my broadband/,phone now+cancel coming to me on the 15th of this month!I'm annoyed

  • EmcdNotts Erin McDaid (@EmcdNotts) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia Going round in circles using 'support' options listed on App. Our broadband has been intermittent since yesterday afternoon. Restarted hub 3 times. Test still showing intermittent fault. Why do you make it so difficult to contact someone to check it's being sorted?

  • Pogit Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia The biggest problem is you do t know how they work, installers don’t know how to check they work and more importantly no one seems to understand why they’re NEEDED! They will be why someone dies and Virgin WILL be named in the courts at a guilty party!

  • Matthew56242945 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.....

  • mickyrichards27 Micky Richards (@mickyrichards27) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia Yes. I never seem to get anywhere with that. That's why I called.

  • Pogit Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia The only response is they have given up and will let me out of my contract early. Not a great response for a customer of well over 20 years

  • Pogit Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia That’s not true that why they now allow calls to other urgent services for priority vulnerable customers such as gas, water electric police and medical urgent but not emergency numbers the trouble is this doesn’t allow calls to hone help and life lines though they should!

  • oh_so_boatie Jessica Boatright (@oh_so_boatie) reported from Lincoln District, England

    Not a great start to Monday - @virginmedia is down, mobile hotspot not working, and as a freelancer who doesn't get paid when I don't work, losing much needed income while things are ££££ is very irritating 😞

  • mickyrichards27 Micky Richards (@mickyrichards27) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia can someone DM me about a complaint.about moving home and not able to get services for a while even though I was told I could

  • Pogit Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia So what your saying is your doing the minimum required by the regulator, and failing your vulnerable customers. As previously stated VM will be mentioned in courts when people are pressing their emergency assist numbers and get a VM message saying their call can’t be connected!

  • mickyrichards27 Micky Richards (@mickyrichards27) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia I've had it with your Internet. WiFi is atrocious. Disconnected and stored away. Getting sky tomorrow. Can't cancel virgin as in contract. Even had a new router...

  • Davith03257086 Davith (@Davith03257086) reported from Lincoln District, England

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

  • EmcdNotts Erin McDaid (@EmcdNotts) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @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.

  • oh_so_boatie Jessica Boatright (@oh_so_boatie) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia Yes, issues showing. I've had to go to a cafe to work - so now as well as lost hours of income I'm down bus fare and refreshments so that I can use the the WiFi.

  • Jasoncarl79 Jason (Kin3tic) (@Jasoncarl79) reported from South Muskham, England

    @virginmedia No it’s not fixed , come on get this sorted. Your broadband speed may be fast but it is so erratic and always at half speed or dropping in and out, today it’s been awful’

  • sorro79 Dan Sorensen (@sorro79) reported

    Good work @virginmedia solid fibre connection for months, come and do work to "improve our service in the area" and since starting work (at home) this morning I've had Internet for 1.5 hours, not likely to be back on until 3pm, superb!

  • sospainter 🅿🅰🆄🅻 🅲🅾🅻🅻🅸🅴🆁 (@sospainter) reported from Whyteleafe, England

    @virginmedia I’m currently in a WhatsApp message with customer relations. I say that, they responded almost an hour ago.

  • HallworthIan Ian Hallworth (@HallworthIan) reported

    @virginmedia Text is same crap message not BOT as what's app. Which I have now been using for 14 hours with you. Yes 14 hours of ignored messages long silences repeated questions and overall dire service

  • bellachu1984 vicky🤓 (@bellachu1984) reported

    @virginmedia I have nothing wired or Ethernet the router goes down everything goes off can see it on the TiVo box downstairs too as the lights come on to say the router is down

  • hayleythetiny Hayley The Tiny (@hayleythetiny) reported

    @virginmedia trying to get on to your live chat feature to talk to your agents, and it’s not working? Is this a feature you no longer offer or is it just broken? Considering leaving yourselves but would like to chat to someone first

  • Mark28146027 Mark (@Mark28146027) reported

    @virginmedia This has been going on since March so plenty of time to sort things out , shame as now I have to go with BT again so another customer lost

  • sorro79 Dan Sorensen (@sorro79) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply and the link to your autocomp scheme, however I believe this only kicks in if the outage lasts more than a day? I have lost 2 hours of working time so far today, which by 3pm will be 5 hours, over half a working day.

  • tania_glyde Tania Glyde (@tania_glyde) reported

    Here we go again @virginmedia. The connection drops but when I go to report it, your status page tells me all is fine so the problem must be at my end! How many ppl have to click before you take an issue seriously?

  • chandjethwa Chand Jethwa (@chandjethwa) reported

    @virginmedia Unable to track the complaint. No thread provided, no acknowledgement and no updates. Every time you call you get told manager to call you today. Please stop lying

  • tania_glyde Tania Glyde (@tania_glyde) reported

    @virginmedia It's dropping on my hub, so Mac and phone. I have had some notifications from VM that you are doing work in my area (NW5) but they haven't covered everything. this used to happen a lot, and your service has got better in the last year or two, but it's got bad again recently.
