  • NikkiPearman
    Nikki Pearman 💙 (@NikkiPearman) reported from Loughborough, England

    @virginmedia I have an issue with my wifi signal being weak upstairs - until last 2 mths it was perfectly fine. However it’s impossible to speak with anyone - I don’t want the automated system or a broadband check as service is fine it’s just range. Unhappy customer

  • breadf2man
    Fazal Rehman (@breadf2man) reported from Thurmaston, England

    Broadband has been failing since Sunday, phoned Virgin Media at least 6 times ! Engineer came today said he had fixed it, hour later exactly the same problem. Very poor service and they say I should use broadband less

  • sarianlives
    Andi James Chamberlain (@sarianlives) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia can I have a telephone number to talk too someone@please, as I am having internet problems and now your website will not allow me to report it. His is frustrating service to say the least.

  • MatthewWalne

    @virginmedia I can find the answer but can’t access my hub settings as won’t open, page not found. Can someone help please?

  • ollieg21296
    Ollie (@ollieg21296) reported from Ketteringham, England

    @virginmedia No faults found and no errors shown on the tests. Is there a charge for booking a technician?

  • doffcapgov
    doffcapgov (@doffcapgov) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @sueperkins @virginmedia Glad you are publicizing their appalling customer comms whilst @virginmedia shamelessly provide a lousy service and increasing monthly subs by stealth

    @virginmedia Stfu man. Ur lots internet is utter ****.

  • ollieg21296
    Ollie (@ollieg21296) reported from Ketteringham, England

    @virginmedia I’m currently a Virgin Mobike customer but I will be emigrating to Canada mid-term in my contract. Is there any way I can get out of my contract without a cancellation fee?

  • SteveRiches4
    Safetypenfold (@SteveRiches4) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia No. I’m done with text, on line and anything except talking to someone. You’ve had the opportunity using the bot, Twitter and online support, now we need to communicate in person. #realpeople

  • iamthemummy
    julie marlow (@iamthemummy) reported from Ibstock, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp Refund me 6 weeks line rental for a start ... issue adapters to all house holds on the land line system before you change to hub, so customers are not left unable to make or receive calls.

  • MatthewWalne
    Matthew Walne MCSI (@MatthewWalne) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia The text service is a bot so doesn’t understand what I want. I don’t understand how posting on a community forum will help me order wifi pods. I’ve posted but just get replies from other members. I want to be able to contact someone at Virgin not other customers.

    Wayne™ (@Dog_in_a_hat) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @Doddstar79 @virginmedia Their service seems to be particularly bad in recent weeks...

    @virginmedia currently on the phone and surprise surprise sir give us another 24 hours!! Are you mad! I’m pulling my hair out!!! I’ve never tweeted before but my guess is it’s the only way they’ll pull there finger out!!!

  • formerprisoner_
    Reformed Prisoner (@formerprisoner_) reported

    @virginmedia Next time, do what you promise and you will. Just a shame that you’ve had 3 opportunities to do that with me as a customer and you’ve failed all three times.

    @virginmedia my internet broadband and tv are not working! This isn’t the first time this has happened to me! Really annoyed and need to use internet everyday. I do have mobile data on my phone but that will most likely max out. Please help! #notfair #BadService #IsSkyBetter?

    Vicky Rizzi (@MRSRIZZI) reported

    @virginmedia how can you disconnect all of our services without permission of the bill payer and leave us with no service as you thought we had moved house? We are 5 days numerous phone calls and still without any supply at all and pay £119 a month for the so called privilege.

    @virginmedia @LutzSchueler I’ve called in and I’m now speaking to someone called Kumar from faults and billing who doesn’t speak or understand a word of English refusing to put me through to the correct team to discuss my complaint what kind of crap do you employ

  • jemski7
    Jemski (@jemski7) reported

    @virginmedia well done. You’ve lost me as a customer of 25 years because you wouldn’t supply me just broadband like you do for new customers. That’s is some ****** up priorities. Good riddance to you.
