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

    Any update to the Digital Landline faults in #Lincoln @virginmedia. I’m told the cancellation my services for the 1st April has been cancelled why is this? Why are 150 trying to upsell me @VMO2News products when your core products don’t work! +3wks without a landline @Ofcom help

  • 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?

  • barmouth9 Mark Jones 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🐏 (@barmouth9) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for the steer to your Indian call centre ,they very helpfully tell me to remain patient until the outage is resolved unfortunately they couldn’t tell me if 21 days and counting is a record maybe you have other forms of enlightenment.

  • 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

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia Fastest broadband provider my arse. Tour broadband is ****. I pay for 100mbps and barley get a tenth of that. So stop your lying

  • 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 😞

  • 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.....

  • 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 🤯

  • 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.

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

    A recorded voice saying sorry only calls to an emergency number are allowed is not much help of your lying on the floor only able to press your emergency lanyard! @virginmedia urgent training is required to ensure people aren’t left in this situation. #unacceptable #LivesAtRisk

  • Clive_Burt Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia Nice to see that you "Customer Services" are maintaining their historic levels of poor service. My contract comes to an end on the 19th of this month, I am wondering why I want stay with you. .... You were near bottom Uswitches recommended list

  • 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

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

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

    @virginmedia not happy #VirginMedia landline forcibly converted to digital line after “fault” broadband outage 1am this morning sets off lifeline phone line warning. The point of having a big red emergency button is when there’s an emergency you press it and it calls for HELP!

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

    @virginmedia I need to talk to a human... my WiFi is s**t Tried customer services all I get is automated push 1 if yes etc etc

  • barmouth9 Mark Jones 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🐏 (@barmouth9) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia Thanks ,yes I’ve had several updates on completion of work pre Xmas it was 6pm most days . Since then it was 3:30 yesterday , definitely today , and one of your highly trained customer agents advises me it will be 3:30 tomorrow ,unless of course you know something ?

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

    @virginmedia Tried ringing at the weekend and kept being sent to the website. Your customer service is as much use as a chocolate fire guard

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

    @virginmedia Can you please tell me why your broadband is so rubbish it can't even support me streaming a game of the PlayStation network?. It happens every day all day. Sort it out

  • LiamDrumm Liam Drumm (@LiamDrumm) reported

    @virginmedia It wasn't short lasting it was a couple of hours and I paid for a whole event and undercard not just the main fight. Terrible customer service from @virginmedia yet again.

  • katy_morris Katy Morris (@katy_morris) reported

    @virginmedia Day 4: Still no internet more than 96 hours after the fault first occurred; still enjoying hearing about your commitments to “excellent customer service”; still loving the way the system cuts you off after being on hold for more than two hours

  • davidpolymath David Parker (@davidpolymath) reported

    @virginmedia do you currently have problems in GU21 as the internet is going down a lot for the last few hours, not just me but also others are reporting.

  • LordClutters LordClutters (@LordClutters) reported

    @virginmedia dear god it’s bloody down AGAIN #virginmedia #broadband #virgin @ofcom

  • benthreadgold97 Ben Threadgold (@benthreadgold97) reported

    @virginmedia So I was promised an engineer out today, I have just called to confirm and my account is now showing as ‘complete’ ... shocking customer services from @virginmedia

  • harri_bhafc Harri (@harri_bhafc) reported

    Never using @virginmedia for anything again. A new problem every bloody month, horrendously unreliable service and to top it off, my nan, without knowing, answered the landline to a scam number and racked up £50 in charges, to which Virgin simply said it was my nans fault...

  • zdlifestyle_ ZDLifestyle (@zdlifestyle_) reported

    @virginmedia Yes and that takes me back to square one - being on hold for over an hour only to be cut off. I will be making an official complaint

  • SophieS84497909 SophieShannon (@SophieS84497909) reported

    @virginmedia I’m now being passed to and from your ‘customer service’ number. How long does it take to effectively resolve an issue? @bt_uk what’s your connection like in Colchester?
