    @virginmedia It took until 18:30 for your engineer to call me. Even now the service keeps dropping out ....I hope your techs onto the problem

  • 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

  • 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

  • loobilou
    heathermayfield (@loobilou) reported from Balderton, England

    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.

    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

    @MichaelLCrick @TomaszPalmer @RogerMi17980111 @virginmedia And the reality is (sadly) that when someone in your position posts stuff like this, it does carry much more clout than the average person who is being let down by these big companies. Power to you Michael.

    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 🤯

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

    @virginmedia how many times are you going to pass me off to other departments or hang up on me! Not to mention create a bill that does not exist. #hadenough #virginmedia #ofcom

    @virginmedia Having connection problems in Nottingham NG5 Area all day App says that service is good but no connection at all now

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

    @virginmedia I do get fed up with @virginmedia platitudes and inability to solve why I have poor connections speed, down to 28kbs at the moment, but your Helpdesk, after I waited 45 minutes, do not consider this to be a problem. Try downloading a 100Mb spreadsheet at that speed.

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

    @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?

  • Clive_Burt
    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 ....

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia I gave in and decided to call. 30 minutes listening to the worst quality music ever! And counting... :’( @virginmedia sucks *****

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

    @virginmedia I’m still getting Mail saying it needs updating, but more importantly installers and CS need to ensure they’re installed correctly and why they’re needed. It’s not just for 999. 999 can take hours to attend Jane down the street can be here in minutes.

    @virginmedia ive now spoken to three of your customer services team over the last few days to confirm at the end of my contract which was 31 May I wanted all my tv package to be ceased and broadband services to be reduced to 350mb on a rolling contract...tv still working!!

  • TheAdamMarsden
    Adam Marsden (@TheAdamMarsden) reported

    @virginmedia absolute garbage- was told moving house would be a ‘smooth’ transition? Instead charging me for two accounts, harassed via email and phone. Told this would be resolved. ALL LIES. Now they’ve cut our internet off. DO NOT TRUST!

    andrhay (@andrhay12) reported

    @virginmedia when will the problem with TV and broadband in the SE1 be fixed this has been ongoing for 2 weeks now. Intermittent broadband and tv for 2 weeks. last 3 days no TV services - no updates

  • alantucker
    Alan (@alantucker) reported

    Finally got rid of @virginmedia broadband, TV and telephone services. Broadband is now supplied by @toobbroadband with a TV streaming service from @skytv

  • Lulette5772
    C B (@Lulette5772) reported

    @virginmedia why is your app so useless, can’t do anything with it as any actions takes you to chat. You’re forced to chat/call VM for everything. My contract is ending, so had to call VM, a torturous experience. After 30minutes on hold achieved basically nothing. It’s so poor

  • NLinnane
    nikky linnane (@NLinnane) reported

    Is Elaine Burke the only tech expert available in Ireland for tv ? She's never off virgin media and now she's on rte news. It would be great if we could have other view points not just one because they are connected to the right people.

  • MawsonAsht43296
    Ashton Mawson (@MawsonAsht43296) reported

    @virginmedia broadband down in Gloucestershire, estimated fix is the 10/6, four days away, is that some sort of joke ?!? What’s actually going on. Elderly people who rely on the broadband are without essential services due to this, what’s happening ?!?!
