  • magnusjoss Max/Magnus Joss (@magnusjoss) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    No Internet in my flat for the next few days since virgin media is ~incompetent~ so could somebody, like, pop a red or blue smoke signal somewhere if one of the candidates reaches 270?

  • santimatalonga Santiago Matalonga (@santimatalonga) reported from Paisley, Scotland

    Dear utilities providers (ex @virginmedia & @BritishGas), if you are offering support via chat, embrace that communication is asynchronous. Can't wait around d for you to pay attention, but i will answer eventually. @hp instant ink got this concept. Ask them!

  • CarolePaton Carole Paton (@CarolePaton) reported from Renfrew, Scotland

    @virginmedia how do I speak to a human? We have a wifi blackspot. None of your recorded message options help. I need to speak to an actual person.

  • robbo_1962 Peter Robinson (@robbo_1962) reported from Dumbarton, Scotland

    @virginmedia Ah I think I see my issue. It’s the M50 broadband package so I think 54 mbps is about average

  • NikRattray Nik Rattray 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺⚗️⚖️🔬🧬👨🏻‍🔬 (@NikRattray) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia been receiving some pretty unhelpful advice from your help desk team with no real resolution. Didnt get a manager's call back and have been treated pretty rubbish. Any chance you can help me?

  • thompsonmark_ Mark Thompson (@thompsonmark_) reported from Greenock, Scotland

    @virginmedia @DanRoPo I am also having this problem. 7 times since 8am this morning on my landline!!!!!

  • magnusjoss Max/Magnus Joss (@magnusjoss) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia It's not an area issue; you prematurely closed my account on the wrong date as I'm moving house and the team members handling the cancellation put the wrong date in. I phoned customer service yesterday morning and was able to be reconnected, it's fixed now.

  • RonnieM87485 RonnieM (@RonnieM87485) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @debbievee25 @Lord_Carson12 @virginmedia I'm in Balornock, no issues here.

  • Coops_71 Elenita (@Coops_71) reported from Thornliebank, Scotland

    @bless_machine @SkyUK @virginmedia Thanks, but my parents have cable and no issues. And I don’t think they ever had a 47% increase on their monthly bill with no warning.

  • thenewpenny OG Nasty (@thenewpenny) reported from Renfrew, Scotland

    @virginmedia pls advise how I cancel my TV & broadband contract. The website and helpline are not providing any support.

  • Websergeant Stephen (@Websergeant) reported from Kilbarchan, Scotland

    @virginmedia Seemed to settle down after a hour or so, seems to be okay tonight

  • steebee35 Steebee (@steebee35) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia I haven't been able to watch my virgin go app for months, continually being asked to register the same device to the point I can't watch anything, useless service

  • CarolePaton Carole Paton (@CarolePaton) reported from Renfrew, Scotland

    @virginmedia Still waiting for a response. Customer service is an absolute joke.

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • SweetDardo SweetDardo (@SweetDardo) reported

    @virginmedia 1/ Thanks but it's the dog biting its tail. The service checker does only detect issues for tv while we clearly are heavily impacted on broadband. If i try and run the Check on the hub, it just says it can't run the services at the moment. Since it can't run the checks ..

  • CamberMan Guy Williams 🇺🇦 (@CamberMan) reported

    @virginmedia I can't call to complain because I'm on hold that long that before I get through to someone the internet cuts off & we start all over again. As a new customer in my 3rd month with you, I'm beyond disgusted. That's without mentioning the gift I never got for joining you. Joke!

  • emmayay EmmaMowles (@emmayay) reported

    @virginmedia No they didn’t. The last repair date we were given was 6pm on 10th Oct and we were told it will definitely be fixed by then. This has been an ongoing issue all summer and it’s so frustrating. We just want to get this resolved and receive the service we are paying for.

  • ricorichards87 Rico Richards (@ricorichards87) reported

    @virginmedia. If my wifi is constantly ****, always lagging, dropping out. Would you say im paying you for a sevice that you're failing to provide?, especially when you say the only way to fix the problem is to give you more money?

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia All the while taking my direct debit payments for a service I am not getting

  • Mr60798928 facelessnamelesstamedwarrior (@Mr60798928) reported

    I will need to get a nice gentleman or woman to kill my pets legally as I cannot get in touch with virgin media to cancel my TV package

  • CamberMan Guy Williams 🇺🇦 (@CamberMan) reported

    @virginmedia Expand a little.... Ok.... At 52 mins past the hour on the hour since the "engineer" fixed the issue... We have lost internet connection which means we've lost TV, internet & phone. Again putting you in breach of ofcom regulations.

  • blightybibi Bibi (@blightybibi) reported

    @virginmedia taking money out of peoples accounts for missed appointments when your engineer doesn’t call prior to the appointment or turn up on the day as he’s supposed to, is illegal. Stop this practice. Listen to the complaint and start behaving like

  • lee_rothwell Lee Rothwell (@lee_rothwell) reported

    @virginmedia After 5 phone calls and 4hrs and lots of negotiation I may have settled with a deal. Will look through the deal probably today as I have a 14 day cooling off period. If I did cancel your retention department would be on it straight away. Both BT and Sky are more than competitive

  • kateprescott67 Kate Prescott (@kateprescott67) reported

    @virginmedia Tried this but not getting anywhere? Support is just none existent
