  • richardfox92 Richard Fox (@richardfox92) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia so still waiting for my return call about escalating a billing dispute, that was started Tuesday. Very poor service once again, and to be told in the call you can send an engineer to see if its crossed wires at a one off charge of £90 that's taking the ****.

  • HannGrenade__ Hannah Stevenson (@HannGrenade__) reported from Lincoln District, England

    Disgusting service from @virginmedia, moved home and told package would stay the same, now been slapped with a bill for TRIPLE what we pay!!! After 20 minutes of the phone the customers services lady cannot explain where all the charges come from!! DISPICABLE!!!

  • kenozz1 Ken Oliver (@kenozz1) reported from Reepham, England

    @andrew_maxfield @virginmedia They are truly awful everywhere you look for help they fob you off trying to end your contract is just impossible Beware

  • cannabicyclol David A Slack (@cannabicyclol) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    Why @virginmedia does your service status say broadband in NG5 is fine when it clearly is not (again!) - as confirmed by your offshore support team.

  • itsbeka91 🌜 B E K A 🌛 (@itsbeka91) reported from Boultham, England

    @virginmedia Internet is ******* shocking. Every week we have connection issues and never any refunds for payment. Absolute joke. Will be swiftly looking for a new provider

  • szymon__j Szymon (@szymon__j) reported from Balderton, England

    @virginmedia After speaking to numerous of your Tech representatives, it appears that none of them know what they’re doing :) I am sorry to say but the customer service is poor.

  • castiger14 🔱ayne (@castiger14) reported from Lincoln District, England

    So @virginmedia are doing a discounted deal plus £100 credit for ex service people who have the DDS card , very good of them if they didn’t tell me that it can only be done online!! So if you’ve served your country and decide to call them on the phone , tough! @discounts_mod

  • HannGrenade__ Hannah Stevenson (@HannGrenade__) reported from Lincoln District, England

    Terrible service from @virginmedia, was told Internet would be on by 9am today, activated line, nothing happened, customer services made me jump through hoops and had the most disgusting attitude, then been palmed off with the old "it's been reset, give it an hour". Disgraceful.

  • szymon__j Szymon (@szymon__j) reported from Balderton, England

    @virginmedia The issue hasn’t been resolved yet but they’re attempting to, I have to wait and see what it’s going to be like over the next couple of days

  • BenDentith0690 Ben Dentith (@BenDentith0690) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia broadband seems to be down in NG4, Nottingham.

  • HannGrenade__ Hannah Stevenson (@HannGrenade__) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia get on the call, he went silent again and then suddenly started discussing the issue again. Terrible staff!!!! Your audits clearly aren't working.

  • 1_NewarkOutlaw Chris North (@1_NewarkOutlaw) reported from Balderton, England

    25% off my Virgin media bill... I think they keep you on hold & pass you around hoping you will hang up... #GoodMorning

  • ajmason1986 Mason (@ajmason1986) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    Are we going to be reimbursed for this down time @virginmedia #virginmobile

  • szymon__j Szymon (@szymon__j) reported from Balderton, England

    @virginmedia It’s an issue with the broadband, kept getting passed back and forth between departments until eventually one of the colleagues dropped the call. I managed to get a manager on the phone in the end but it took way too long for what the problem actually was.

  • NorThor78 Ñøřţß🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🧜‍♂️🧜‍♀️🔶️ (@NorThor78) reported from Lincoln District, England

    Just spent £4.99 on virgin movies to watch All Is True (Shakespeare film) and it was the biggest waste of money ever. Also, the whole film played without a hitch on @virginmedia, yet a half hour show I tried to watch on @NetflixUK stopped 4 times cos a signal 'wasn't found...'🤔

  • BenDentith0690 Ben Dentith (@BenDentith0690) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia Hi, as mentioned I have already tried these steps and I still do not have any internet access. Everything was ok until there appeared to be work being done on the box on our street last night. Been v poor and now not working ever since.

  • jongarner_spurs Jonathan Garner (@jongarner_spurs) reported from Waddington, England

    @virginmedia Do not let the Country down tonight! No disruption to any of the services from 18:00 until 23:00 tonight!!! Or prepare for a backlash from your customers. #UEFAChampionsLeaguefinal #thfc #coys @SpursOfficial #nontravellingfan

  • BenDentith0690 Ben Dentith (@BenDentith0690) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia The only solution you provide is to miss precisely what I pay you for, so you can get it fixed in time for me to watch in the main, what I don’t want to watch. You have no solutions beyond telling your customers to suck it up whilst you hoard extortionate subscription fees.

  • Soph115 Sophie (@Soph115) reported from Bracebridge Heath, England

    @virginmedia We took the new deal online which included a television for being a new customer. Therefore, we got a second box fitted & 4 months later, still NO TV. For the first month, the box didn’t work properly & we were promised a discount of our monthly bill & that didn’t happen either.

  • jojoclinton joanne clinton (@jojoclinton) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia Your missing the point-I’m no longer a customer I want my emails back and account closed. Cyber Crime are involved and this is ridiculous #shameonyou @virginmedia @BBCWatchdog #blackmail

  • Laura92492442 Laura (@Laura92492442) reported

    @virginmedia The link is not working correctly. It does not allow me to tap screen and enter my name.

  • elreago Baby Yoda’s no.1 fan (@elreago) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah it’s happening with everything. The light on my router is red. I can’t check service status as my mobile internet signal is really poor so the site won’t load (to give you an idea - I have to keep putting my phone on & off airplane mode to get enough 3G to load Twitter…)

  • itsHayleeee it's hayleeee (@itsHayleeee) reported

    @virginmedia once again our Internet is down, looked at the service status - you're aware of issues in the area, fixing estimate is 3pm. It's not really acceptable though is it when this is like the 3rd time this week. Unable to work from home or use security cameras.

  • vraimentdesolee Maira Moscardini (@vraimentdesolee) reported

    @virginmedia Well, according to your service status page looks like it’ll be an entire workday lost. Is it really getting back to normal only tomorrow morning?

  • KevKelly14 Kev K (@KevKelly14) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve told you before I’m NOT phoning that damn number ever again. I’ve just got back from the hospital and I have another appointment there this afternoon. If i get time tomorrow I’ll try your link chat.

  • NicolaWilloug10 Nicola Willoughby (@NicolaWilloug10) reported

    @virginmedia When I have read on forum some other customers with this issue needed a replacement box

  • sangenjayauk Andy (@sangenjayauk) reported

    @virginmedia internet down from this morning in SE1, status page said would be fixed by 12:45pm today. This has now jumped to tomorrow morning! Any update would be appreciated as to why…Thank you

  • jmzcantwell Becky (@jmzcantwell) reported

    @virginmedia no because it soon enough sorts itself. if we are having issues we look it up.

  • paulbressie Paul Breslin (@paulbressie) reported

    @VirginMediaIE no BB or tv in Huntstown D.15 you having issues ??? Won’t let me check my virginmedia

  • StourPsalm Balo (@StourPsalm) reported

    @virginmedia WiFi has been spotty for the last month and for the past week has stopped working completely. Have not been able to access a service I pay £54 pm for. Diagnostics and service checker completely useless also. Unacceptable
