    @SkyUK giving me absolutely terrible customer service... all i want is better internet connection and they cannot fulfil the speed we should try and get and are telling me i have to pay to leave them!!! Ridiculous!! Not happy virgin media calls...!!!

  • johnnieego John Lyons (@johnnieego) reported from Hackney, England

    Hey @virginmedia, I'm only grudgingly a customer because we can't have a dish here. I certainly don't want to switch to your mobile. How about saving a tree or two and not sending me brochures all the bloody time. Ta.

  • danslee Dan Slee (@danslee) reported from Camden Town, England

    Several hours on and I'm still wincing at the frustrating incompetence of @virginmedia's customer services. I'm trying to go. The only way is by phone. But they cut me off after an hour largely on hold. #FreeDan.

  • TobiWanDOTA Toby Dawson (@TobiWanDOTA) reported from Camden Town, England

    Get a message from @virginmedia telling me they are raising my monthly cost to pay so they can offer a better service.....internet is down once again... Finally going to look for ANY other options cause I have had enough!!!

  • ThePamFord Pam Ford (@ThePamFord) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia still waiting for my engineer (8am to 12) you are wasting my only day off work to get my service back. Promises promises

  • MichelleMcGrade Michelle McGrade (@MichelleMcGrade) reported from Brentford, England

    No internet for 3 days engineers no show twice @virginmedia customer service best response- I’m sorry I‘ll book you another appointment at our convenience! Shocking!

  • starsenic dicle erver (@starsenic) reported from Hackney, England

    AVOID VIRGIN MEDIA! I REPEAT, AVOID VIRGIN MEDIA! THEY WILL MAKE YOUR LIFE DIFFICULT AND WILL DO ANYTHING NOT TO HELP YOU ON THE PHONE! THEY HANG UP THE PHONE ON MY FACE! @virginmedia

  • mattsray Matt Ray (@mattsray) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia after 5 years of poor service finally call up to leave and I am kept on hold for 33mins and counting. It’s akin to hiding behind the curtains pretending not to be home!

  • _Rafi93 Rafi (@_Rafi93) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia No change after rebooting both boxes (v6/hub). Nothing on the service status page. I’ve been through all of this before and was explicitly told if it happened again the cables would have to be re fitted

  • JonMarkDeane Jon Mark Deane (@JonMarkDeane) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia Broadband is down. Box is showing solid green base light, solid green WiFi light and a flashing green internet light. Reboot, lower cycling, full disconnection and reconnection achieves nothing. TV service fine (sans network features).

  • jimiinc James Enck (@jimiinc) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia I wasn't complaining at all, just commenting on how Virgin is on top of its game. My broadband was only down for half an hour, no dramas. And your field tech was very friendly and helpful in explaining what was going on. All good here.

  • nabenza Ruth Brookarsh (@nabenza) reported from Watford, England

    @virginmedia @vmbusinesshelp I’m not business customer

  • northern_puddin Jason Hartley (@northern_puddin) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Thanks I checked earlier but it says no known issues. I also checked the guide for the lights on the front and it’s a connection problem / constant software download as it’s flashing green. Works for 5 mins then reboots and spends ages all flashing green again. 3 hours now.

  • ThePamFord Pam Ford (@ThePamFord) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia very poor service, I've wasted my day off they're still not here, @wwrecorder #E18 recommendations for broadband service please #wanstead

  • REDROBB1967 ROB FARACE (@REDROBB1967) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Never spoke to someone it was a chatbot. So no real confidence that tomorrow will be different. Disappointing to see it has to happen twice before you look at maybe seeing if you can help. Would be nice to know someone was looking into it now so it was guaranteed for tomorrow.

  • _Rafi93 Rafi (@_Rafi93) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia I need an engineer to come back to my house, possibly to rewire everything as my tv service doesn’t work properly. The previous one got everything working again recently but said it might break again and if it does we would need to replace the cables coming from outside

  • UKmatC Mat Carey (@UKmatC) reported from City of London, England

    Update on this; This is a suspected external/public IP address issue, not @Control4 issue. Still awaiting resolution from @virginmedia as to why I cannot access many websites (Captcha issue) or login to most accounts / tunein etc. #Control4 @Control4_EMEA #virginmedia

  • Messy_BB Mercedes BB (@Messy_BB) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia Hi - your technician came and fixed the internet, but broke our phone line (: 👏🏼 help please

  • Danielson_1991 Daniel Thompson (@Danielson_1991) reported

    @virginmedia I've been through all this before, I've spent over an hour with the tech team, even had an engineer out. All I want is a pod to boost the signal of the WiFi upstairs

  • apisol1 Apisol (@apisol1) reported

    @virginmedia @simon_goodyear Also, make sure to note when you made the complaint and if they don't respond within 28 days, escalate the complaint to CISAS.

  • lauriejanewest LJ (@lauriejanewest) reported

    @virginmedia I have an engineer at the premises now hoping to resolve all issues 🤞

  • apisol1 Apisol (@apisol1) reported

    @TaskinChowdhury @virginmedia Register a complaint and ask for compensation due to the lack of service provision - if they don't respond within 28 days then escalate to CISAS.

  • chrisypoop chris (@chrisypoop) reported

    @virginmedia laughable service, no one able to advise me why a technician was cancelled, why my broadband is down, offer 'inconvenience payments or wait until after the issue is resolved to have a 'deadlock letter' - to top it off a manger then hangs up on you...

  • dont_be_hasty 🅹🅴🅽🅽🆈 (@dont_be_hasty) reported

    @virginmedia my Internet isnt working. I have green flashing arrows on my router. Rebooted 4 times still the same. What do I do know. I'm working from home and relying on your service.

  • sheena900 Sheena Raichura (@sheena900) reported

    @virginmedia Via both. Its just very slow and I have intermittent connectivity.

  • simon_goodyear Simon Goodyear (@simon_goodyear) reported

    @virginmedia So, you want £215 disconnection charge because I can’t get Virgin services at my new property? I don’t think so! RIP OFF! Plus how can anyone give 30 days notice when moving? I’ve had poor broadband service for 12 months. Now this!

  • apisol1 Apisol (@apisol1) reported

    @virginmedia @Serena_Durrant0 You don't contact complaints back and hope it becomes more trouble than it's worth to continue. CISAS will give £50-200 for inconvenience but it costs more in labour time to get it due to Virgin intentionally ignoring complaints.

  • tappinator Nick Tapper (@tappinator) reported

    @virginmedia We’re still having issues locally. Even the TV has been cutting out. Internet is on / off / on / off. Very, very frustrating as I am working from home.
