  • Coq_Au_Ginge Neil Carter (@Coq_Au_Ginge) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia Good afternoon. I’ve recently received some calls purportedly from Virginmedia saying that our internet isn’t working as it should and that they need to fix it. Are these calls legitimate please?

  • mariobucolo Mario Bucolo (@mariobucolo) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia With 20 devices connected to reinstall? What's? This is a solution? Wow thanks

  • wharfyoung jordan (@wharfyoung) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia Oh they just hung up on me after being on hold for over an hour. If virgin media genuinely think I’m going to pay this bill after the level of service I’ve received they absolutely have another thing coming.

  • toonrich Richard Cooper (@toonrich) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia at 14.40 I was promised a call within 4 hours from your technician. Still waiting... I’d like to go to sleep now but I’m worried I’ll miss his call. BTW it’s about your **** broadband #broadband #virginmediadown #virginmediarubbish

  • wharfyoung jordan (@wharfyoung) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia Okay well I’m currently on hold to speak to a manager in customer care on the phone and have been for nearly an hour so if you’re able to get speed that up it would be much appreciated.

  • Morvaridp Morvarid (@Morvaridp) reported from Chigwell, England

    @virginmedia absolutely useless customer service, with no knowledge of what to do and how to resolve issues. Each person tells you something different and unable to resolve a problem with WiFi connection! How am I meant to work from home with no internet? They don’t care!

  • wharfyoung jordan (@wharfyoung) reported from Poplar, England

    So @virginmedia have just told me that a complaint I made over a month ago was actually never going to go anywhere and was only with the person I made the complaint to. I’ve just wasted a month on a complaint that was never going to get resolved. They wonder why ppl hate them

  • toonrich Richard Cooper (@toonrich) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia Slow broadband. I spent ages on the phone to your helpline and s was hen they couldn’t do anything they said an engineer would call. Waited on all day but he didn’t bother.

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

    @virginmedia hi I’m waiting for an engineer to come & look@at my router/WiFi connection but they’ve not turned up. Can you help please

  • wharfyoung jordan (@wharfyoung) reported from Poplar, England

    @joelycett I need your complaining skills, virgin media are trying to charge me £230 for an account that they cancelled. no one seems to be able to help me on the phone, have spent over 8 hours on the phone in the last month and keep getting hung up on pls help

  • wharfyoung jordan (@wharfyoung) reported from Poplar, England

    When you spend 2 hours on the phone to @virginmedia about a complaint that’s taken them over a month to respond to and they pretend not to hear you and hang up the phone coincidentally when they close at 9pm. I’m going to lose my **** soon.

  • OllieToogood Ollie Toogood (@OllieToogood) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia I was promised a call back from an engineer within 4 hours over 6 hours ago and nothing has happened yet my broadband and tv is still not working?

  • nickgriffith4 nick griffith (@nickgriffith4) reported

    @Ofcom @virginmedia 1/2 Hi, it’s not the price increase that’s the issue. It the barriers in place to make discussing options to avoid the price increase. Phone lines impossible to get through to someone. When you get through they try to upsell you. When you continue to challenge

  • snudge2256 Snudge (@snudge2256) reported

    @virginmedia Internet down for the third time tonight and sixth time this week 🙄🙄🙄

  • biltongeater A (@biltongeater) reported

    @virginmedia @ofcom my services received by virgin media are crap. I’m paying top dollar for “fibre optic super shizzle” and it’s crap. And their demanding an increase for rapidly diminishing services. @Ofcom please can you investigate virgin? Thank you

  • TalkingTooMush Mush 💫 (@TalkingTooMush) reported

    So @virginmedia I was promised a call back ‘within 2 hours’ about your persistent internet problems over 2 weeks ago. Problems I’ve had for months. I was told there were engineering works, then it was a bandwidth issue. Everything expect giving me the speeds I pay for.

  • adelwire graham littler (@adelwire) reported

    @WhichMoney @virginmedia Complaint is regarding spending approx 5 hours over the weekend waiting to talk to humans at @virginmedia Think 4 actual conversations in 5 hours!!! Is that really customer service??? Several times after pressing 1 etc, it said we're busy, use email. End of call.

  • JohnGallanders John Gallanders (@JohnGallanders) reported

    @virginmedia Servuce outage is intermittent and even when you go on the checker when it is not working shows no problems. Re the mobile had no problem when on EE for signal yet Virgin use same network. Yes spoken tech 3 occasions no solutions

  • Courtsxcx Courtnie (@Courtsxcx) reported

    @virginmedia Was let down multiple times with install, had to go elsewhere to get internet in time to go back to work, was promised £50 cheque as compensation but told it could take 45 days, no cheque, 1hr15 mins on phone chasing it to be told I wouldn’t be getting one.

  • TheLawless Dan Lawless ⚒ #GSBOUT (@TheLawless) reported

    @TalkingTooMush @virginmedia Been having obgoing connection problems as well need them to fix it and lower my bill

  • nickgriffith4 nick griffith (@nickgriffith4) reported

    @Ofcom @virginmedia It’s extremely poor customer service, and bullying tactics. There will be thousands who don’t question/or give up trying - and end up being charged considerably more for the same. They should not be able to behave like this.

  • steve_stavrou Steve Stavrou (@steve_stavrou) reported

    @virginmedia Hi our broadband and tv service has been really poor for the last few days,trying to get through to you is a joke! 55 minutes on hold is not acceptable,43 minutes the next day,only to be disconnected both times😫please help!!
