  • thegaffaa TF (@thegaffaa) reported from Ilford, England

    @justinw03816934 @virginmedia Held on for 33 minutes to be told they need to transfer me to another person. They are just leading their customers on. @virginmedia are awful...

  • munirawilson Munira Wilson MP (@munirawilson) reported from Richmond, England

    @PhilippaNewis @virginmedia I think the so-called compensation offer is inadequate and the process to secure it is appalling too. @VirginMediaCorp CEO is about to receive a letter from me where this very point is raised, along with a number of other issues relating to the outage.

  • andrewrogoff Andrew Rogoff (@andrewrogoff) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia The issue’s been resolved. Please just fix your terrible status reporting and update system.

  • KateRenton Mrs R (@KateRenton) reported from Merton, England

    @Chelsea1504 @virginmedia We lost service on Thursday 19th December at 9:30 am we regained service at 6:00am on the 23rd December. There were talks between @virginmedia and local Cllrs that full refunds will be given from first to last day. Let’s hope that @virginmedia doesn’t go back on their word

  • HavocTechie Mr Havoc techie Voiding warranties since 1990 (@HavocTechie) reported from Loughton, England

    @virginmedia 241 High Rd, Loughton IG10 1AD. If your team are doing anything why is there never a update or any chasing on these cabinets. As a Virgin media customer if I phone your auto system it gives a ref and no way to check

  • KateRenton Mrs R (@KateRenton) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia It was registered online with yourselves. You’ve still sent me a full invoice for loss of service in December. Don’t send me links I’ve already completed.

  • BrianBr48598668 Brian (@BrianBr48598668) reported from Camberwell, England

    Virgin media are so shit

  • andrewrogoff Andrew Rogoff (@andrewrogoff) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia Yes, it was listed there but the 1st page in my account said there were no known issues. Come on, I think you know exactly what the problems are with your rubbish status updates.

  • joybrenda Brenda Franco (@joybrenda) reported from Stratford, England

    @virginmedia , how can some One be removed from your mailing list, as they keep getting mail shots, but have no wish to be a virgin cus tomer, and find these letters irritating. Thanking you In anticipation of your help in this matter.

  • Patrick60425645 Patrick Barrett (@Patrick60425645) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Yes, fix the navigation, have serious look at you chat app, as in the Name chat, is not what your application does, you using AI/ word recognition and you still list the reply as Agent. Having spent 10 min on your site. No thanks Virgin.

  • jackreed08 Jack Reed (@jackreed08) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia Not only do I have TV issues also my internet keeps dropping out! And yes re booting it does sort it out but rather annoying clambering behind the TV all the time 🤬

  • cameronfalconer Cameron Falconer (@cameronfalconer) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia Our internet isn’t working and there is indeed a service issue in Brixton. Thanks for ruining NYE, Virgin!

  • thegaffaa TF (@thegaffaa) reported from Ilford, England

    Don't get @virginmedia broadband. Its pants and continually down. Been on hold now for 33 minutes... #terrible

  • KateRenton Mrs R (@KateRenton) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia We are struggling to talk to your teams on the phone @virginmedia to discuss our refund for our 4 day loss of service. Getting fed up with this.

  • mattwhiteski Matt White (@mattwhiteski) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia 2 weeks with no internet. Four phone calls (one hour each). Three engineer visits cancelled. I even tried calling you BEFORE today's engineer visit to try to stop you cancelling it but no luck. Please help. Nobody on the number you provide is able to do so.

  • 28Zizou Sab (@28Zizou) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia Doesn't help answer my question. The virgin media app restricts a user to just the channels. Whereas on the @btsport app the user can stream all games and switch between the matches.

  • myatt1965 Jonathan Blackmore (@myatt1965) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia 8 pound credit for 4 days with no service in SW19! Not the best customer retention strategy. 😫

  • adrian_pennelli Mr P (@adrian_pennelli) reported from Hackney, England

    Ah well. So it will be good riddence to @EE at the end of my contract and hello to @virginmedia and @Virgin as they have been excellent dealing with my wife's issues unlike you lot. Dreadful service from @EE where the customer is taken for granted. #poorservice #poorcustomercare

  • rawle_dan Dan Rawle (@rawle_dan) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia It says no known issues...

  • martinTayx Martín Pane 🐦 (@martinTayx) reported from Camden Town, England

    @Strippin @btbusinesscare @WeAreOpenreach Internet I'm the UK is shockingly awful. It took Virgin Media 6 months to install a cable to my house after repeatedly stating it would only take 1-2 months. 🙈

  • aidomagoo Aidan Magrath (@aidomagoo) reported

    @virginmedia Ok joint bill payer. I don’t use wired so it’s irrelevant. I didn’t take out your service to have Ethernet cables running around my house so why do you keep asking about Ethernet speed? This doesn’t mention wired or wireless for the minimum acceptable speed does it?

  • 43_claire Claire Roberts 43 (@43_claire) reported

    @virginmedia It just won't let me log can some one come out and sort the problem out please if possible

  • greginsyd Greg Crow (@greginsyd) reported

    Hi @virginmedia can you tell me why I’ve lost internet yet again in SE26? Yes I’ve checked your status page (and it shows everything is fine when the service is actually down). Yes we’ve rebooted the router.

  • ross_abrahams Ross Abrahams (@ross_abrahams) reported

    Seriously how many times do I need to speak with @virginmedia for them to tell my why my broadband installation keeps getting pushed back (nearly 2 months now). I haven't had a single conversation without being passed between 7/8 operatives. Literally the worst customer service.

  • neavesclaire Claire Neaves (@neavesclaire) reported

    @virginmedia The irony is we left Virgin after months of struggling with poor connectivity and trying to get a better service. We are both keyworkers and were trying to carry out telehealth and run a social services team during lockdown. Really really poor experience with your company

  • theshakadaddy Gareth Davies (@theshakadaddy) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Nope. Done that, several times already. Still not heard from sky, not about the shite wifi nor the complaint. I’ll be leaving when I’ve time to call; I’ll expect refund for the weeks of port/no internet whilst waiting for this shitshow to be sorted. @virginmedia @EE any offers?

  • ross_abrahams Ross Abrahams (@ross_abrahams) reported

    Not even sure whether I want to stay anymore. And to top it off, as soon as I am offered a single bit of compensation (not worth it at all!), an automated message tells me their offices are shut and they hang up on me. Absolutely awful by @virginmedia

  • JuhilDungrani Juhil Dungrani (@JuhilDungrani) reported

    @virginmedia Your service sucks I’m experiencing awful service since last 3 weeks now

  • THFC_fan7 🇮🇪⚪️#NunoOut (@THFC_fan7) reported

    @virginmedia why has the WiFi been completely down in my area for the whole day?

  • dannycorder Cords (@dannycorder) reported

    @virginmedia Appreciate your help here. There are only two of us here and it's only me who would do that so I can rule that out.
