    @virginmedia Still not working, unfortunately I won’t be able to pay for this service much longer if I am always having troubles. I don’t know what to do anymore apart than moving on to another realiable provider

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

    @virginmedia Your online status reports no faults but as I said in the thread, I have called your support centre at least 10 times & they confirm there is a fault which has been the case since the 2nd of March. I am assured, every time I call, that it will be fixed within 7 days. It never is

    Chris Green (@chrisgreen) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia Try actually looking at your previous comms on Twitter with someone before making such an inappropriate and unhelpful response! At the end of the day, if you are not going to help, why are you here?

    @dazzleeds @virginmedia Have exactly the same experience with @virginmedia - customer service does not exist but the charges are taken and increased without fail. For three weeks have been trying to get in touch and get some support with zero result argh 😖🤯😭😭😭😭

    Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Hello there, DAY 5 without Internet connection here and I haven’t received any update from you. Can you PLEASE make some clarity on what is going on and when we can expect this to be fixed? Surely you should have sent a technician to check on us by now… Absolutely awful.

  • markhayo
    MarcHayo. Former ditherer. Now pro hard-changed EU (@markhayo) reported from Kensington, England

    Respect to the engineers @virginmedia Consistently maintaining such a complex network is a tough job, especially at a time of exceptional demand. Whingeing the instant something as advanced as an internet network goes wrong is such a self-regarding 1st World problem. Shame on us

  • antonypatrickuk
    Antony Patrick Assoc (@antonypatrickuk) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia That’s my point!!! your text says you’re coming today, your system says Thursday! Once again a massive let down on your apparent Customer Service!!! Your call centre has just advised that the text was sent in error and the appointment is now Thursday....costing my company money

  • 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.

  • remecampos
    reme campos (@remecampos) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia I had check that a few times but unfortunately it could not be fixed. This is an ongoing problem and it is not on. Also my phone line not working

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

    @virginmedia After the two hour chat, it was finally resolved. Wife have arranged an internet connection to our new flat before this(with Virgin btw), took 5 minutes. Lot of hoops to jump through to cancel, when I just wanted to get it over with. No offers, just cancel.

    I feel down as my @virginmedia internet.

  • Jo_The_Waiter
    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

  • adbalfour
    Alex Balfour (@adbalfour) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia @PlayAvengers @Arekkz Bayta codes???Doesn’t he mean Beeta codes? For ****’s sake can no one speak proper British English any more. People at Starbucks -‘Can I get...’. Others ‘my bad’, ‘different THAN’, ‘a bunch of people’, ‘ON the week-end’, ‘ON Trafalgar Square’, ‘advertizement’ (my son said this)!

  • 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
    MoMo (@ImaginaryCard) reported from Hammersmith, England

    Nothing like @virginmedia's **** broadband coverage to kick off the week. No connection for 1 hour now

    @virginmedia how do we get a new HBO activation email? We have TNT sports but don't appear to have the invitation email. All the online help simply sends us round in circles and trying to get through on the phone takes ages. Surely this should be quick and simple?

    Jus a quick complaint to Sir Richard Branson , to mention on the new tv 360 Virginmedia now makes it so u have to press 7 buttons just to change channel....... i dare say the Rothbaby Boyz r really the problem , but it needs seding.... innit Cheers. 🙄😒😑🤪🥳

  • Jolilfred
    fran (@Jolilfred) reported

    @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

  • shauny67
    Shaun (@shauny67) reported

    @QxPain_ @virginmedia Turn off router, turn off all devices connected via WiFi turn on router & bring up each device at a time & check WiFi & distance then will find which device is causing the issue. A router only has a certain distance will need a pod if drops out due to distance

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

    @virginmedia The biggest problem I'm having with virgin 360 is the removal of the best features from the old software. Where is the "wishlist" recording mode so I can record anything that has "*random city name*" in the description? I have so many more problems. We need a money discount..

  • victor50
    Kev (@victor50) reported

    @virginmedia if Virgin paid me £5 for every time the wifi went down, I’d be a wealthy man. I am anyway, but not quite enough to sue under the trades description act for diabolical service. Absolutely awful. The new provider can’t get in our area quick enough.
