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.
-

-
AlicrySky (@SkyAlicry) reported from Lincoln District, EnglandOh look no internet again. Thanks @virginmedia Someone recommend a new service provider please because I’ve truly had enough :(
-
Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England@virginmedia Your web app says there is no problem, but your telephone diagnostic services says there is? Which is correct?
-
Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England@virginmedia Also perhap if you read the full thread, it would help.
-
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 *****
-
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).
-
Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England@virginmedia My Daught is having significant problems with her IPAD as result, and using her phones data (no we are not Virgin phones), which is costing her, when your network falters, I then switch to my NHS phone and use its data, and my simply uses her work phone ...both essential workers.
-
Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England@virginmedia Er no, if you had read the thread in its entirety, you will see that I said I was getting someone to look at how to organise the internal network on the house, and I would be leaving at the end of my contract, in 17 months. I would not recommend Virgins services to anyone.
-
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
-
AlicrySky (@SkyAlicry) reported from Lincoln District, England@virginmedia I didn’t know I could use the forums to terminate my contract.
-
Jon Page (@JonLPage) reported from Lincoln District, England@virginmedia Hello! Do you have any update on the intermittency issues in LN5?
-
AlicrySky (@SkyAlicry) reported from Lincoln District, England@virginmedia After an hour and ten minutes of appalling noise the woman who put us back on hold disconnected us. Five minutes into the new call and all we want to do now is cancel the contract that you’ve failed to provide.
-
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.
-
Imp & Angel (@ImpAngel1) reported from North Hykeham, EnglandExtremely 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) 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 ....
-
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) reported from North Hykeham, England@virginmedia I have been offered the opportunity to complain, but as a customer of 20+ years I am aware complaints tend to get ignored. At its worst speed was down to 0.5Mega bits per second ... At its best (for 20 minutes or so) maybe 150Mega bits per second. Paying for 200Mbps .....
-
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.

Lilzura (@NavaronePage69) reported@JimSterling @virginmedia Yep they hang up constantly and pretend the call dropped or something if you ever bring it up. Virgin don't have nearly good enough of a WiFi to treat people that ******
-
Commander Stephanie Sterling (@JimSterling) reportedGot further this time but when they said they'd transfer me to their pre-installation cancellation dept. it hung up again. Jesus Christ, @virginmedia you are *really* horrible at this.
-
Steve Burgess (@Burgeeez) reported@virginmedia hi, I can’t seem to find a link to the chat messenger service, can you please advise? Haven’t got time to wait on a call to then get hung up on again and this has proved most successful in the past. Thanks
-
Zinda, his face black, his eyes red🖖🏻 (@AQueerPanda) reported@JimSterling Virgin Media are the single worst customer service experience I've had since TalkTalk straight up lied to me about buying out my ISP, I've had a good few meltdowns from stress with it. Good luck getting it sorted, you'll need it. I wish other ISPs offered such competitive speed
-
(insert funny name here) (@evilgeniusuk) reported@JimSterling @virginmedia if you need the connection for business (which obviously you do), I wouldnt touch Virgin Media with someone elses barge poll never mind my own. They are absolutely dreadful and they dont care. Their routers are shite, their tv boxes somehow worse.
-
Ice Thot (@AngyPolarBear) reported@JimSterling @virginmedia This is why you don't let virgins run your communication network 🙄
