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

    @virginmedia Yes but I just tells me there are no problems. It did the same thing a few weeks ago but stopped when I held wifi button down - it's now constantly flashing & that wont stop it & web site says in normal operating all green lights should be off.

  • terrysankey Terry Sankey (@terrysankey) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @SimonADouglas @virginmedia We have the occasional internet problem but since the last announced 'update' the hub seems to be resetting itself. Doesn't matter to the 'wired' machines but obviously disconnects the WiFi! Irritating as the restart times are long and inputting the names/password is a pain 🙄

  • JWilliams_94 Jamie (@JWilliams_94) reported from Birmingham, England

    @idlecreative @virginmedia They probably won’t tell you much but it’s definitely a regional problem me and other I know are suffering the same problem with all the other people putting it too Twitter

  • tomstrumreed tom reed (@tomstrumreed) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia There's nothing there relating to broadband issues.

  • GeorgieMaley Georgie Colley (@GeorgieMaley) reported from Kidderminster, England

    Why can’t media providers just get into the 21st century and make it easier for households, by having contracts based on a joint accounts. That way, both home owners can call up about any problems! Data protection my arse @virginmedia @SkyUK

  • EgglestonMathew Mat 🏳️‍🌈 (@EgglestonMathew) reported from Birmingham, England

    Feel sorry for the poor bloke at Virgin Media that’s answered the phone to Matthew

  • DickyDodd Dicky Dodd (@DickyDodd) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia You seem to find it very easy to let go a loyal customer of 23 years. You won't be that sad.

  • wthirskgaskill W. J. Thirsk-Gaskill (@wthirskgaskill) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Please concentrate on getting up the noses of broadband customers, and stop running shit trains, and suing the NHS for money that was never yours in the first place.

  • prasy3k Prasant Bakarania (@prasy3k) reported from Madeley, England

    @virginmedia has no idea on customer service. 30 years with them and they treat us like dirt. #BadService @bbcmtd @Ombudsman-Services.org #Overcharge Brushed us aside like dirt!

  • AmbitiousMusic AMBITIOUS 🎶🎸🔊 (@AmbitiousMusic) reported from Birmingham, England

    Ok so the @EE connection on my phone is far superior then my home @virginmedia WiFi. May switch. #virgin is crap!! 🖕🏽

  • Sammykins9486 Samantha (@Sammykins9486) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia It is a media issue, I sent off the documents over a month ago confirming new account holder , no reply or confirmation this has been actioned at all. Weeks on end trying to sort one issue that should be easy is unacceptable

  • kittykaz13 Caroline James (@kittykaz13) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Thank you, yes, I just called them after it happened again! They are sending a technician out to see if the area fault from last Sunday has caused an issue on my line, as this issue only started then, a tech is coming out on Tuesday

  • Plumberguyuk Mike Hamer (@Plumberguyuk) reported from Birmingham, England

    Virgin Media should be reported to the advertising standards, for lies, what a total load of crap, try getting your customer service telling the truth for a start .

  • Sammykins9486 Samantha (@Sammykins9486) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia It’s media. I have sent off the details to change account holder name and heard nothing back it has been over 2 weeks, can’t get anywhere when i contact your call centre. I need a change to our services and need support with this

  • ArcanumDesign Bill Bishop (@ArcanumDesign) reported from Halesowen, England

    @virginmedia Tom, I already have, and they refused to match the same cost when the introductory offer finishes. You are still over charging me £125 p.a. for being an existing customer. Please have a UK customer manager contact me

  • DickyDodd Dicky Dodd (@DickyDodd) reported from Trysull, England

    @virginmedia media retentions and I got cut off and no call back. Ambismal customer service.

  • Wolvesblogger Nathan Lloyd (@Wolvesblogger) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia Intermittent problem. It’s back on & then it’s gone again. Very frustrating.

  • Wolvesblogger Nathan Lloyd (@Wolvesblogger) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia Cheers for the top. Yes, tv & broadband services issues with an estimated fix time of 23:55. I may have to crack open the Scrabble & the candles. Now I know how people felt in the black outs during the war!

  • Wrightgal80 Kate Wright ◣ ◢ (@Wrightgal80) reported from Birmingham, England

    @danhounslow @virginmedia They are bull shit! I sit next to the router and sometimes have to take my phone off WiFi so things load.

  • AmbitiousMusic AMBITIOUS 🎶🎸🔊 (@AmbitiousMusic) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Your service has been shit for years. Need a change

  • bethwritesstuff beth & the bowl of ennuitabix (@bethwritesstuff) reported

    I've been without @virginmedia services for four days. Try and use their WhatsApp service and it messages you every ten seconds to ask if you still want to be in the queue followed by annoying emojis. Worst service in the world.

  • Viridian2019 Viridian (@Viridian2019) reported

    @virginmedia @palomsky I just signed into my account and ran a check...no broadband issues apparently! But all virgin media customers in my road have no internet. You have a really bad track record with us. Now we sharing alternative,reliable suppliers...

  • stevefoxcroft Stephen Foxcroft (@stevefoxcroft) reported

    @virginmedia I did and spoke to someone 👍 Still not resolved the problem though. I’ve given up today, I’ll try again tomorrow

  • MikeBrownnutt Mike Brownnutt (@MikeBrownnutt) reported

    @virginmedia my broadband has been down all evening, but no way of informing you. Phone lines closed and all other contact methods closed.

  • ollieleeb Oliver Lee Butcher (@ollieleeb) reported

    @virginmedia why do you expect me to pay for this months bill AND next months the bill so you don’t restrict my service??? Why would I pay for internet and tv I’ve not received yet? I spent 20 minutes on the phone sorting this out 2 days ago and you still can’t get it right ffs!

  • saf7321 Sarfraz Hussain (@saf7321) reported

    New ETA is 20/12 10.45 GMT - What kind of service is? @virginmedia Where is the Engineer(s) coming from? Australia? As they are still on route based on update #VirginBroadband #Down

  • geoffkirk123 Geoff Kirkwood (@geoffkirk123) reported

    @virginmedia May I say, if there was an Olympics for "Worst company for getting in touch with tech support" you would get Gold every time

  • ashleynewnham Ashley Newnham (@ashleynewnham) reported

    @virginmedia Your on demand video service is shocking. Took half an hour for the film to start and had to restart the TiVo box 6 times to get through the film. I will never use it again

  • SHaywardZA S H (@SHaywardZA) reported

    @virginmedia shocking customer service from Virgin Media. Send through wrong speed in contract and want to charge £25 for the new o2 sim. We wanted to leave and your retention team gave us a good deal, but clearly trying to rip off customers #trainyourstaffproperly

  • gillianpatrick3 Gillian P. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺🇧🇪🇸🇩 (@gillianpatrick3) reported

    @PorteousMary @virginmedia It's a rubbish way to treat long standing customers Mary.
