    ITS NOW almost 6 months since I made the contract with the sales team and I was told by the customer service team today that they can’t help and I need to keep trying. Trying what? WHERE ARE MY RIGHT? @virginmedia @richardbranson

    Jose Carvalho (@josethepotter) reported from Hammersmith, England

    Extremely disappointed with Virgin Media. Made a contract with them for internet for my business on the 09/09/21 and still NO INTERNET installed. Called customer service and they can’t help, call the order manger and they can’t help too. Who can Virgin? @virginmedia @Virgin

    Wolé Adesemoye (@WoleAdesemoye) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia is by far the worst TV, broadband and telephone service I’ve received in 20. Customer service is appalling. I was just on the phone and the customer service personal just hung up on me. I just can’t wait to leave and go back to @SkyUK. #avoid #virginmedia

    CALUM GRAY (@Jo_The_Waiter) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia It was fixed about 1:30am but this is happening a lot since I moved to Hammersmith. But you never tell us what the problem is or give any compensation. I couldn’t do anything. Even my PS4 wouldn’t allow me to play games as they connect online. No TV nothing

  • MissMikaSimmons
    MIKA SIMMONS (@MissMikaSimmons) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Yes the TV is down in my area. The wifi is fine. I have known this for days and no one at Virgin media picks up a call or returns the text. I’d like to cancel my account

    @virginmedia I’m not a VM customer, I just want to buy a WiFi pass as my carrier’s login methods have changed and I can no longer log in automatically

  • GaborPfalzer
    Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @AbzAaron @virginmedia Even better… if you don’t play along, nobody else will cancel it. You can’t even hang up on the sales pitch.

  • ImaginaryCard
    Mo-Mo (@ImaginaryCard) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia down yet again. Where's the refund for all the hours lost with no WiFi connection?

  • Housewife6
    Shaz (@Housewife6) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia This is not a new issue, its been months. The wifi keeps dropping all day everyday. I believe its an external issue i need an engineer. And how do i complain about the service i am receiving?? I am paying for something iam not receiving.

    Once again virgin media down in central London SW5. No television and no broadband #virginmedia #virginmediadown @virginmedia

    @Rhodri_H_Davies @virginmedia It's #virginontheridiculous that @virginmedia have had the same lame excuse for their 'temporary', nightmarish wait times on their 'helpline' for 12 months now Who else gets the dropped calls as soon as you mention a bad broadband connection? Were trying to #homeschool here!

  • Anthony_Lonres
    Anthony Payne (@Anthony_Lonres) reported from Kensington, England

    To all my friends who recommended @virginmedia please don’t contact me again. They are without doubt the worst company I have had the misfortune of being a customer to. If you’re considering them. Don’t.

  • ImaginaryCard
    MOMO (@ImaginaryCard) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia How's that gonna fix my problem? Twice in 2 weeks I've had no service. Can I cancel my contract if I'm in the 1st month?

  • iamAleFerrara
    Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Hello there, it’s past 12pm and we’re still without any Internet connection (and getting desperate now). I’d like to stress that this isn’t an intermittent signal issue but a total loss of service as we’ve been having no Internet connection AT ALL since last Friday. HELP PLEASE!

    @QxPain_ @virginmedia Restart phone then should connect to WiFi ensure it connects to your network then test with opening a browser and running a speed test

  • JagsArthurson
    Jags Arthurson (@JagsArthurson) reported

    WARNING I've had the dreadful new @virginmedia 360 box imposed on me (Virgin updated box without my consent and wiped all my recordings) With the old (36) box, to go to an alphabetical list of recordings was ONE button press With the 360 box it's FOURTEEN!!! Truly awful

  • StephenOld
    Stephen Old #FBPE (@StephenOld) reported

    @thenorth4theeu @virginmedia I tried to change a few years ago but they made the process impossible. They sent me texts instead of emails and no other providers will deal with Virgin directly. They have just been fined for their poor customer service, I think. They don't even reach basic standards of decency

  • Driftinuphill
    Glen Dickson (@Driftinuphill) reported

    Virgin Media? Hi tech? Can't resolve a 4 day old broadband problem. Piss poor service. Piss poor communication. Said I'd get email updates but I can't log in to Virgin email. Chancers.

  • DavidPaintdw
    Dave Wright (@DavidPaintdw) reported

    @virginmedia haven’t you just been fined for making it hard to cancel. It’s nearly impossible day 2 still no reply

  • eternalelneny
    Eternal Elneny (@eternalelneny) reported

    @virginmedia With all due respect, the engineers have been there all day, I saw two of them having a 20 minute lunch break at 10am. Can you push these engineers to get this completed today? Compensation isn’t a valid response to not being able to work - ridiculous service.

  • Nick_LCFC_fan_1
    NICK🇬🇧 ⚽LEICESTER.CITY.FC⚽ (@Nick_LCFC_fan_1) reported

    @virginmedia I have more problems with your Virgin 360. When I'm watching a programme that is also being recorded. When I change channel during the adverts and then turn back it won't let me rewind! The old software let me do this from 2017-2026... Why did you remove so many features?

  • weyland76
    m a t t (@weyland76) reported

    .@virginmedia my TV box will not record anything. Every recording says "recording failed due to a technical issue" but I have no idea what that issue is?

  • Geordie_Radgie
    David Howard (@Geordie_Radgie) reported

    @MoneySavingExp I'm in favour of more control (virgin media constantly stiffing me...), but define "inflation". You also need to factor in how the costs - for the specific business and product - are increasing. It would help if govt. didn't keep finding new ways of driving costs up, also.

    @LapChallenge The commentators are the worst I’ve ever heard, just talk waffle. Also see more of them than the actual sports. Where’s the options to watch different events? I thought it was an option but doesn’t work for me at all on virgin media annoying af
