  • RitzNarshi Ritz (@RitzNarshi) reported from Lichfield, England

    Watching @virginmedia engineers install cabling to a property opposite. Residents moved in yesterday. They’re not in, nor is their neighbour. Didn’t stop the engineers lifting the neighbour’s lawn to drill and feed through cabling. Terrible.

    @virginmedia I’m trying to watch virgin tv through Firefox on my Amazon fire stick, but I keep getting an error message ‘sign in failed’ although it doesn’t even give me the option to enter an email address to attempt to sign in?

  • Tricia__Winspur Tricia (@Tricia__Winspur) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Parents experiencing continual issues with their Virgin services... have tried contacting Virgin for over month and continually on hold. Now on hold again and this issue needs to be resolved. Elderly parents and no mobile. Any help as this is disgusting service!!

  • shaunreeves Shaun Reeves (@shaunreeves) reported from Fradley and Streethay, England

    @virginmedia Lichfield area having problems. I’ve gone from 600mbps this morning to less than a meg. According to online no know issues. Connect app and your online diagnostic tool doesn’t support Hub4 so can even test that way. Done a rest of hub. Nothing. Help!

  • ChrisImms I.Am.Chris.Imms (@ChrisImms) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia any chance of some customer service? Installation booked for last Friday, engineer didn't show up... twice I've called and been hung up on. Complained via email, no response. Anyone want to tell me what's going on?

  • Matt_Francis98 Matt' (@Matt_Francis98) reported from Fazeley, England

    Virgin media are the worst internet providers there is for sure

  • MattyladKRO Matt Smith (@MattyladKRO) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I hung on for 45 mins then you hung up ....disgusting customer service tell me why I shouldn’t just cancel and go elsewhere after suing you for breach of contract

  • SkulyMusic Skuly (@SkulyMusic) reported from Aldridge, England

    @virginmedia The worst customer service in History gotta be seen to be believed

  • VickyBloor2 Vicky Bloor (@VickyBloor2) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia any updates on internet connection in the Midlands 5 hours down now 😡

  • shaunreeves Shaun Reeves (@shaunreeves) reported from Fradley and Streethay, England

    @virginmedia It appears to have been resolved. However it is rather alarming to hear members of our village had been told by your customer service team “the earliest fix would be 6th Jan 2021”.

  • AnnaavfcEdwards edowards (@AnnaavfcEdwards) reported from Birmingham, England

    No sound on my TV for 4 days, tried all the usual re boots and resets, countless calls to virgin on hold for over an hr only to be cut off, am now waiting for a callback off them that probably won’t come, disgraceful service,can anyone help @virginmedia

  • LB_WFC Liam (@LB_WFC) reported from Willenhall, England

    @virginmedia It does. The internet will randomly cut out then come back on 2/3 minutes later. I’ve factor reset it via the router setting and a manual factory reset with no luck.

    @virginmedia What’s the point when I can’t use the internet to get online you ***! @virginmedia you are suppose to provide this and a customer service too but do neither 💩💩💩

  • KevGranelli Kev Granelli (@KevGranelli) reported

    @virginmedia No faults listed anywhere in are we have a technician out tomorrow the 4th one in 2 weeks to see if they can help and see what the problem is but see how it goes.

  • andleigh78 Andleigh (@andleigh78) reported

    @virginmedia hi again, this issue has still not been resolved despite your multiple promises of my account being credited for all of the overpayments I have made, another £27 was taken from my account yesterday...

  • DrMintheNorth Gillian_Mabbitt (@DrMintheNorth) reported

    Trying to cancel @virginmedia contract - why is it so difficult? Two requests over a month and almost two hours in their whats app chat and I don’t feel any further forwards. Feel like there’s a special *ignore* button for leavers. Still. Makes me feel more validated for leaving.

  • chrisp691 chris phillips (@chrisp691) reported

    @virginmedia so didn't get back to me about my mother's tv problems and talking to a call handler #welldonevirgin

  • MICKLE_M Michael (@MICKLE_M) reported

    @virginmedia I will hold out till tomorrow morning in case the tv issue gives the broadband. If there's no luck I'll contact them tomorrow thank you :)

  • Taiko_Potamus Tony Potamus (@Taiko_Potamus) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah, no update since talking to somebody this mornin about maybe fixed by Jan 5th. Then he started mumbling about automatic compensation...I don't want compo. I'm like I'd just like to be kept in the loop but nothing is being updated and I'm still without Internet. Help please

  • mikiejboy69 Mikie (@mikiejboy69) reported

    @virginmedia Hello Virgin currently experiencing the same issues (yet again) can you check again for a fault and again when there it’s likely to be fixed!

    @virginmedia Complete and utter loss of broadband. Doesn’t help when I’m working at home. It’s been happening almost daily since the beginning of December.
