    I will not be ordering a movie from @virginmedia store ever again. Ordered a movie and never received the dvd. Every time I try to talk to someone about it I get different excuses why I haven’t received the dvd. #badcustomerservice #virginmedia

    @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 Ok Virginmedia, the WiFi extender for which paying for (installed on 27th May 2020) has ceased working, this may or may not be as a result of the issues from the weekend or not, but before the issues started, it worked, afterwards it didn't. How do I get it replaced?

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

    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.....

    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?

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

    @virginmedia It’s intermittent. Not off often enough to be called no service or you’d have to pay us back for the lack of service but not on long enough to be much use.

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

    @virginmedia @dev101 Your on-call Network support, who had to wait 18 hours to be sent the ticket, and then he had to endure 4 hours on the phone to India. 2 other households in area also affected. Offer of compensation £0 (issue occurred 15:30 17/9, finally rectified 18:30 19/9).

    @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.

    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

  • jaynlaura
    Jay (@jaynlaura) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia currently been sat hold for 20 mins trying to help my gran as your team have failed in their service for her. She is currently without working services and a 20 minute wait on the phone is not acceptable

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

    @virginmedia You can tell it's the weekend when your SONOS speaker is not able to stream radio on a consistent basis, due to intermittent internet problems, which I reported two weeks ago, got a visit on the following Wednesday, got told the installation was poor and left.

  • JonLPage
    Jon Page (@JonLPage) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia Hello! Do you have any update on the intermittency issues in LN5?

  • davemabbott1984
    Dave (@davemabbott1984) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @StevenKiberton @virginmedia But when the internet n tv goes down fur even 30 seconds everyone’s on socials via mobile moaning thy can’t watch re runs of Jeremy Kyle or lose women

  • 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!

  • 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!

    @virginmedia @KazH50 Can you tell me what the issues are in Lincoln, speed down to 2Mbs ... Paying for 200Mbs

    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 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

    @virginmedia And the compensation for this? We already pay a fortune for the service. Where’s your back up plan for when services go down?

    @virginmedia can someone advise if the customer service phone line is down. It is saying it is out of service. Multiple phone calls to sort my account. Not impressed or happy. Wish I moved to @skytv now
