  • HJMKent Howard Martin 🇺🇦 (@HJMKent) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @virginmedia Just to let you know I was billed by you for Netflix on 10 June, the subscription was not paid to Netflix by you - so they cancelled my account! You owe me a refund please! Also this was a issue as far back as May & Virgin were saying "they were addressing it" Still are it seems!

  • MrsDont09 helen somerville (@MrsDont09) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia whats happening with the service in B29 area. Been off and on past 24 hours.

  • lvwlvs LVWLVS (@lvwlvs) reported from Cheslyn Hay, England

    @virginmedia Everything is running fine then my devices can’t connect. It takes me switching the router off at the wall and on again for the connection to reestablish itself. First world problems but it’s a pain when I’m working upstairs and the router is downstairs. And it should just work!

  • EvanD Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I’ve reordered twice already. The packaging never arrives

  • _lilymarsden Lil (@_lilymarsden) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia Hi John, my wifi has gone down 4 times since last night, we’ve reset it on the box twice this morning alone and it still keeps dropping … can’t get through to anyone on the phone and website says they won’t send anyone out for another 24 hours and only if the wifi stays down ???

  • rjoberns R Joberns (@rjoberns) reported from Halesowen, England

    @virginmedia service status checker ……… nope, That’s not working either

  • MutliRaceMan Jean Thierry 💙 (@MutliRaceMan) reported from Birmingham, England

    @KellyQuilt @virginmedia Virgin are hopeless for ease of contact. My daughter was with them and the service wasn’t at all good. This nonsense about calling them at a time to suit them is just ludicrous. They need to admit that they (& others) don’t staff adequately to suit their customers convenience. 🤬

  • ___Mezzala Riz 🌹🇬🇧 (@___Mezzala) reported from Birmingham, England

    @AGJ27_ @TwiitterJo @virginmedia Ours has gone down… Again. The 5th time this evening. I’ve had enough of this ****. Genuinely can’t wait to leave. Never experienced such awful service in my life.

  • ___Mezzala Riz 🌹🇬🇧 (@___Mezzala) reported from Birmingham, England

    CANNOT WAIT until we leave @VirginMedia in a few months time. Non stop internet issues for months now. I’d urge everyone to swerve Virgin Media. Better companies out there who do more and cost less.

  • Rob_Hicks W1NGNUT (@Rob_Hicks) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Doesn't matter now, we've terminated the contract and joined Three home broadband. I just think it's disgusting that a customer of over 10 years doesn't get offered a deal as good as a new customer.

  • lvwlvs LVWLVS (@lvwlvs) reported from Cheslyn Hay, England

    @virginmedia That was the first thing I tried but nothing happened. It’s only when I power off at the wall, wait a minute then power on that it changes. Right now it’s working fine but this has been a recurring problem this week.

  • all_day_ Mathew (@all_day_) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia hey guys whatever I try to play back or if I rewind live tv to play back the boxing is terrible so much so you’re unable to watch the programme. The wires are all connected fine and all other internet devices are fine. What’s the issue?

  • HJMKent Howard Martin 🇺🇦 (@HJMKent) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @virginmedia I've rebooted the box & it's resolved the issues with the Apps - thank you - however it doesn't explain why my Netflix subscription has been removed from my service package and bill, which presumably happened before the problems started yesterday late afternoon accessing Apps?

  • SusieWJr Susan Johnson (@SusieWJr) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia broadband down in my area. I pay nearly £100 pm for this ****. Time for a change I think 🤔

  • mrmjprice Martin Price (@mrmjprice) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I have been but they couldn’t get a good-enough price and directed me to the self-service page but I get “customer-exclusion” at the end of the URL which tells me to use chat.

  • meclareyb Clare (@meclareyb) reported from Birmingham, England

    Very pleased to publicly announce we are leaving virgin media. I have never known such a diabolical internet service - current situation our 100mb per whatever it is means our internet is unstable for any zoom session. Utterly ridiculous. Hoorah for us 🙌🏻

  • redron1975 Ronnie Harris (@redron1975) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia so what crap excuse u got today for us in the ws10 area? Internet down again. Honestly if you were a guard dog nothing would be safe. Even less reliable than the weather forecast.

  • AntonyHowlett Antony Howlett (@AntonyHowlett) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ChristineAllado @virginmedia I keep having this problem every week and nothing ever gets done and all you get back is we can't find a fault

  • meclareyb Clare (@meclareyb) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia you claim we get 100 whatever’s per second. So tell me. Why my internet doesn’t work. I can’t stay on a zoom as my “internet is unstable” and live tv “jumps” not streams. You sent somebody to resolve last time. It’s now repeated this behaviour again. Why do that?

  • MattDen82519810 Matt Dennis (@MattDen82519810) reported

    @virginmedia Still having issues, how about after a few years of poor service you send me a couple of the boosters as a good will gesture to see if this helps maintain my Wi-Fi without the need for me to be sat right next to the router?

  • scgmccallum Sean (@scgmccallum) reported

    @virginmedia Your pricing framework is nothing more than a subtlety insidious entrapment scheme, and your customer service is appalling.

  • livelikekk Kayeesha (@livelikekk) reported

    @virginmedia I can’t get through to your number and I am giving my 30 days from today 25/01/2021 notice to cancel my contract as I am moving home and no longer require your services.

  • Chris37624363 Chris (@Chris37624363) reported

    @virginmedia Afternoon just tried to cancel my broadband/phone after was told after 45mins unable to do today and I need to call back tomorrow. Have cancelled my direct debit so I await your phone call

  • MDisraeli Michelle D'israeli (@MDisraeli) reported

    @virginmedia Wrote that tweet whilst on hold, still waiting for the call to be picked up. After, that is, your crazy system insisted I call twice, as there's obvious way to skip the automated tests when you have an existing issue

  • moldovia István Vilmos (@moldovia) reported

    @virginmedia any particular reason why my Internet connection is so bad that I'm unable to watch YouTube without it buffering?

  • HazelPBP Cllr Hazel De Nortúin (@HazelPBP) reported

    @virginmedia I'm still having issues with my account. If customer service is closed, how do I contact Virgin to rectify?

  • vinorodders ͏vinø (@vinorodders) reported

    @virginmedia I would respect this if the internet you “provide” was actually at a top level like you say it is. Often I am left tethering off my mobile phone data, doing self diagnosing of the issue, appalling really.

  • KAndrew20 KAndrew (@KAndrew20) reported

    @virginmedia So yes spoke to a helpful operative yesterday .....promised issue would be fixed within 24 hrs ....so 30 hrs later still not fixed and waiting on call for another 1 hr ....you can do better virginmedia

  • MDisraeli Michelle D'israeli (@MDisraeli) reported

    Now over eight weeks after the original complaint C-30112016 @virginmedia have AGAIN closed the ticket claiming they tried to contact me (they've not). The technical issue (advanced network error search) is still present, and still breaching GDPR. This is going to OFCOM and ICO.
