  • mattxjones
    Matthew Jones (@mattxjones) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia It wasn’t - I just want to add sky sports to my package, but I can’t online and the automated telephone service doesn’t work

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

    @O2 @virginmedia Thanks I’ll look into what multi-sim plans you have but the reason I left was due to poor family, multi user based tariffs.

  • MattBenson1
    Matt Benson (@MattBenson1) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia Hi - nope. Thats the issue, no response on the text service and the call centre just gets into a loop and I can’t book anyone. Help!

  • Miss_Danielle82

    Really can't wait for @virginmedia to come out and connect our services tomorrow. Just hope the problems they've been having are all sorted now.

  • ONLYONEGIBBO
    GIBBO (@ONLYONEGIBBO) reported from Waddington, England

    So @virginmedia refused to let @SkyUK transfer our landline so now all services have been removed by SKY. How can people work from home when you give a fix date of 3 December - thus needs sorting now - no TV, no WiFi no phone

    @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

  • tobystephenson
    Toby Stephenson (@tobystephenson) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @mrwilliamstokes He couldn’t be clearer that he’s asking for a repayable loan not free money. The media really have their heart set on pulling Virgin apart. People are terrible too, we make our own beds that we have to sleep in - E.g. flying Ryanair now because we put nicer airlines out of biz.

    @SimonTa44447286 @virginmedia @simonkeenan007 With my discounts, my monthly payment was £63, end of discounts £169 + £4 price rise (discounts due to outage 18 months ago). Spent an hour haggling ... revises price to £68.

    Danicka (@copycatcabe) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia I have been trying to get in touch with no luck message the engineer numbers and your own message service with nothing back from either one all I want is my internet installing

  • GiddyG
    John Gidman (@GiddyG) reported from Bracebridge Heath, England

    @virginmedia My router is on, *********** light is showing, but no devices in my house can connect to the Internet. I rebooted the router, and still no Internet. Post code is LN4. Please advise re any local or national issues and next steps. Needs fixing ASAP.

  • 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.

    @virginmedia Please let me know what I should press to get through to support. The options are totally garbled

    Getting fed up with organisations using Covid as an excuse for poor customer response #virginmedia

  • ceeo
    Ceefit (@ceeo) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia Its intermitant last few times its the whole unit fault not working

  • 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!

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia I have that already, and the issue exists in the middle floor, which is why I want to get a booster for that floor, and also enable my laptop to plugged in on that floor, in the office that I have

  • HRH_Duke_of_Url
    Dadaldo (@HRH_Duke_of_Url) reported

    Virgin Media are the worst. They strong armed me into a ****** deal to take out an O2 sim for £5 a month just to get affordable broadband. Now when my broadband's down, which happens weekly, I check their online service checker and it bounces me to a virgin02 sign in page.

  • Scrumpyjackfan
    Craig (@Scrumpyjackfan) reported

    After 25 years with @virginmedia it’s time to say 👋. Relocating your customer services to SE Asia a few years back was a stupid move, I have wasted hours waiting and talking to your reps. Even now I must do the leg work to find a better deal. You should be phoning me to keep me.

  • gilesy10982
    propper klopper (@gilesy10982) reported

    @miked36 @virginmedia No problem at all 👍🏻

  • charles_forsyth
    Charles Forsyth (@charles_forsyth) reported

    @biggle1908 @SBarrettBar @zeninternet I have both Zen and Virgin Media (two fibres). Zen is symmetric but VM is not (here), despite Zen being half the price. Symmetry (or not) depends on the underlying infrastructure supplier. VM has been great over many years, fairly usual tech support; Zen has been excellent and the tech support is very techy. ("Symmetric" here means upload and download rate is the same; often upload is much slower.)

  • apshutt
    SHUTTY 🇬🇧 (@apshutt) reported

    @virginmedia I have not said there is a problem, so don't give me a stock answer, what do account managers do please?

  • BrownyanYK
    Brown (@BrownyanYK) reported

    @littlemankay Hoping it can be gotten with virgin media too again (yes that's a real wifi network)

  • WomanWithAWomb
    Naughty_But_Nice_Angel (@WomanWithAWomb) reported

    @Rugster_CDS @DianneProc24557 @Starlink I now pay £40, going to to £56. I'm with Virgin Media. I can't afford to be fussy as I have a very bad credit score 😭

  • blugun
    Tommy Fitz (@blugun) reported

    @virginmedia down again, 2nd time in two days🙄🙄🙄

  • KalEl_WBS
    simon withers (@KalEl_WBS) reported

    @virginmedia I’m tired of repeating myself, I’ve sent multiple DMs to you and you never reply.

  • PeteSamuels5
    Pete Samuels (@PeteSamuels5) reported

    @DorzetRob @Artemisapphire Ditto here. We're between 3 towns. Sod all signal. Had to get 'wi-fi calling' on the mobile phones, to make mobile calls via the broadband. Smarty seems to work OK. Old copper land line now shut off by Virgin Media.
