  • MurrayAlanLee DREAMVIEW ESTATES (@MurrayAlanLee) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia very disappointed with recent service in area 21 and no offer of #compensation. We were without service for most of last week often for a full day. Told was our issue turns out was an area outage #misleading . #virginmedia #Broadband #BREAKDOWN

  • Azmainnnn Azmain (@Azmainnnn) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia your broadband is a pile of ****. The amount of times I’ve gone without broadband ever since joining your service! 😤

  • stillphone Phil Stone (@stillphone) reported from Kensington, England

    If @virginmedia in @British_Airways T5 FirstClass Lounge is as good as it gets then I’ll never be a @virginmedia customer because it’s utter crap!

  • MurrayAlanLee DREAMVIEW ESTATES (@MurrayAlanLee) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia They have a record, I called this morning as its lasted the weekend without issue. Compensation was refused. Hence the tweet. It was on an off whole week. Even tried changing a resistor which did not work

  • funsizeAllie Allie Anderson (@funsizeAllie) reported from Enfield Lock, England

  • timfen8 T Fen (@timfen8) reported

    @virginmedia I want to change my contract with you but whenever I enter my email it is not recognised. Also not recognised is my customer number that you gave me. I have no way of speaking to anyone.

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported

    @virginmedia 3 engineers came as I was going on the school run. Thought great, at last. Came back to the same, tv not working and still no internet. Shocking! What the hell do I have to do to get what I’m paying for??

  • Titchyblue James wright (@Titchyblue) reported

    @virginmedia Coax can't handle the speeds Fibre Can, And all of your Advertising says Fibre... So Maybe they should change it to say Fibre ( with a bit of 20 year old Coax). Maybe if you upgraded your network it wouldn't break down all the time.

  • johnwhalen66 mcfc_66 (@johnwhalen66) reported

    @virginmedia how can I cancel a streaming box, it has been delivered, tried multiple times to cancel before delivery and was told I had to wait for delivery and then cancel via app by your customer service, can't find the option and now received text to say it has been activated?

  • ChrisBrownsell Chris Brownsell (@ChrisBrownsell) reported

    @virginmedia Hello, twice now my Superhub 4 has rebooted itself and reset both the SSID and password to the default network name and password. Any idea why it's doing this and how I can prevent it from happening again?

  • TheCCL_ The CCL (@TheCCL_) reported

    @virginmedia A **** show of customer service, lies apon lies everytime I call. No manager call backs after 4 days. Shall I go on….

  • TFerTrog Tracy (@TFerTrog) reported

    @virginmedia Eventually found a 'quick links' section halfway down a page. Maybe that should be at the top?!

  • emilyparkerrrx em (@emilyparkerrrx) reported

    virgin media customer service is atrocious it’s actually funny

  • TraceyCom2020 Tracey Comerford (@TraceyCom2020) reported

    @virginmedia please tell me why 2 reps on separate calls told me I’d get a refund into my bank by the 07/10 for overcharges (which cannot be explained) and for a cancellation of service I made on the 23/08 but now I’m told I’ve to wait 45 days for a cheque!

  • Julianhomeboy Julian (@Julianhomeboy) reported

    @virginmedia Yes! I called 789 3 days ago who confirmed it's an issue with migrating virgin with o2 and can take 4 weeks to fix
