    @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

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

    @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 ....

    I think I’m done with the bullshit from @virginmedia I can’t take another day of having to reboot or reconnect just to get online on my own home only to have them **** the entire thing with a firmware update. My old dial up was faster than the service we receive.

    @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!

  • 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

    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

    sky can't guarantee us at least 40gb of Internet we will be released from our contract. We no longer want this awful Internet and would very much like to go back to @virginmedia

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

    @virginmedia Still here waiting for the restoration of the internet service I pay you to provide.

    Could a twitter friend give me the number to phone Virgin Media -the internet is down and Newark’s rubbishy 3 G never loads anything in my phone.

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

    @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

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

    @virginmedia I have not made any changes, and I have a Hub 3, and a pair of 5 year old TiVo boxes, one of which is having problems playing back things that have been recorded. But as I don't want waste an hour if my time in a queue, I shall just look forward to the end of the contract ....

    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?

    Changing ISP to Virginmedia; the stress & hours of my life lost, trying to resolve issues trying to register an account, & porting home phone number WOW! I'm informed their systems are unique, this = hassle. #virginmedia #consumers #shoponline

    @virginmedia Well after speaking to someone from customer resolutions this morning, I left my details and heard nothing back! I've been trying to sort this out for weeks now and my contract is about to expire!

  • saoirseisla
    Isla (@saoirseisla) reported

    My fave thing about @virginmedia is nothing. No WiFi for 4 days. No WiFi = no tv. Been fobbed off for days. Each day promising it’ll fixed by the end of the day. Only to turn around today and say only an engineer coming to the house can fix it. I want out of this contract.

    @virginmedia pathetic service!! I thought Sky were bad but this is disgusting! You send a new box out to an 83 year old man and expect him to install it and when by miracle his son manages to do this you don’t activate it from your end!! Several calls and you

  • DWRICHARDS
    David Richards (@DWRICHARDS) reported

    @virginmedia Thank you. I look forward to doing so after the current period of 30 days (in which to issue a replacement cheque) has expired and when I will need to renew my attempts at scaling your high security battlements!
