    @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

  • Tim_Arnold1977
    Tim (@Tim_Arnold1977) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia Yes. It's odd, it's like I've still got some service but it comes up 'no internet connection' when I go to Google etc.

    Fault v210 on my TiVo box @virginmedia. All on demand services are down in NG4.

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

    @virginmedia Because I wouldn't connect a laptop to an unknown (to me) website, through the router, where the could alledgely monitor connection speeds. When your engineer visited he had to escalate the issue to your network team. Because I had 1 downstream & 1 upstream not the 24 down and 4.

    @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

  • 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

  • bellyncfc
    supanotts (@bellyncfc) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia I have now tried a laptop on wired and that varies from 110 meg down to 30meg..i really need a engineer to sort this! I have done all your resents,power downs x 3.i have been promised call backs which never came,I'm sick to death of being fobbed off tbh I need out this contract !

  • EdwardCroft19
    Edward Croft (@EdwardCroft19) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia I’ve attempted to speak with your team and somehow never get through to anyone, just an automated service telling me to wait to be connected. Hence resorting to tweeting.

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

    @virginmedia I didn’t know I could use the forums to terminate my contract.

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia I’ve given up. You’ve failed yet again to provide what I we needed. I’m not surprised. Virgin Media is fast becoming synonymous with this lack of service. I do NOT recommend you to friends and family.

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

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

  • chris_litcons
    chris whitney (@chris_litcons) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia No one has replied to the text. Spent hours on it ourselves and Googled the problem. Virgin media were no help at all.

  • 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?

  • chrisekins01
    Chris Ekins (@chrisekins01) reported from Lincoln District, England

    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

  • Hannie02Allen
    Hannah Allen (@Hannie02Allen) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia what is your plan to help consumers who are now having to claim from the government and will struggle to pay their payments for their packages and unsure when the next bit of money will be.

  • 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.....

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

    @virginmedia Second day running, get to 4pm and the internet crashes ... Unfortunately I do not have the luxury to stop work and try to fix it

  • danwhite33
    Dan White (@danwhite33) reported from Balderton, England

    @virginmedia super hub 3 is not so super anymore, more lights flashing than the Christmas tree and a WiFi range as long as my arm, been intermittent problems since Friday. No one answers your phones and I can’t access my account online 😡 #virginmedia #broadband Grrrrrrrr

    @virginmedia With respect it’s been 2 weeks. Everyone seems to be reporting the same issue and you keep giving them different stories if you look down the replies and you’re yet to put out any sort of official statement.

  • 1kevin010
    Kevin (@1kevin010) reported

    @virginmedia Things are fine now, but it was down for over 6hrs this morning. The thing that annoyed me and others was that virgin didn’t acknowledge any issue online to reassure its customers, something to remember in the future

  • manmanelende
    williams (@manmanelende) reported

    @virginmedia @JamieGBarry mine went from £82 to £185 😡 cancelled everything!! 3days before contract was expired retention team phoned, guess what? All of the sudden they could get it down to £65 …I told them where to stick it …

    @virginmedia @PeteUK7 3 months isn't "recent" what ******** are you on about.

  • RyanHerd14
    Ryan Herd (@RyanHerd14) reported

    @JamieGBarry @virginmedia It’s ridiculous, and a predatory business practice. Raise the out of contract price by 2-3x and, if one customer doesn’t noticed but 2 cancel, they’ve still increased revenue and reduced overheads and admin.

  • CarolSTilly
    carol stevens (@CarolSTilly) reported

    @virginmedia horrendous problems trying to sort our boxes before 2 June. Tried speaking to someone, tried app, tried QR code. What happens if this isn’t done by 2 June. Need urgent help. Not impressed

  • PeteUK7
    Pete 😷 #COVIDisAirborne (@PeteUK7) reported

    @ProfChocCaXe @virginmedia And you can't see that you have no self-awareness and that you're rude and seek to be hurtful. It pities me that you have no standards which is demonstrated by your interactions here and how totally unbecoming they are.

  • StevenByro
    Steven Byron (@StevenByro) reported

    @virginmedia what is the update on the broadband please. Ours has been intermittent for the last two weeks I’m unable to work and my partner is also unable to work. We have called multiple times and get told there’s been a fire causing the problem and told to wait 48 hours?

  • awinnibago
    who is number 1? (@awinnibago) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia Never deal with any company that uses the words “reach out”.

  • Dudley1976
    Stewie (@Dudley1976) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia @skytv are just as bad. My mum was recently trying to cancel the contract in the name of my recently passed father. It was when they asked to speak to the bill payer that the formal complaint was made…
