  • AndyGixxer46 The Chief (@AndyGixxer46) reported from Bexleyheath, England

  • gorgeousuk anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia The deeper check did not work because the internet is down and therefore the check did not work......it’s just so pathetic really

  • HDPMS Hugh Scantlebury (@HDPMS) reported from Kingston upon Thames, England

    @virginmedia Engineer on site. No signal for the “little” channels E4, Channel 5 etc. (others are OK) so he’s in the pit in the street. Presumably therefore not just us....

  • andycoldicott Andy Coldicott (@andycoldicott) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia, thanks for rolling my unused mobile data over for the next month. Now if you could just sort your rubbish service out so I can actually use it that would be great. Thanks. Bye. x

  • gorgeousuk anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia That would imply that I had faith in your services & belief that you cared about your customers. I know from the past that this is not the case. I have already checked and this problem is supposed to be fixed by 3pm, it has been ongoing since 8am. It really is tedious and boring

  • AndyGixxer46 The Chief (@AndyGixxer46) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia The complaint was about my address in the first place, I was advised you didn't have any forwarding address for me now your saying you have multiple.

  • D2SDKATO SD KATO (@D2SDKATO) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia @WJBson1 Maybe try get proper English speaking staff who no how to respect customer it is a disgrace that you use India and Philippines and they cannot even speak a word of English how do you expect us customers to be happy

  • markogrdosic Marko Grdosic (@markogrdosic) reported from Islington, England

    .@virginmedia customer service twice hang up the phone, website says broadband works perfectly in the area, and still there’s no internet and no way to find out from you what’s happening. And still paying the highest bill every month compared to every other provider!

  • gorgeousuk anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia When you are using your data in your own house so often, have Netflix, Now and Amazon Prime you pay for that you can’t even use when Broadband are down, you have to ask, what the HELL am I doing with a company that can’t provide a basic bloody service.

  • rajeevdatta Rajeev Datta (@rajeevdatta) reported from Brentford, England

    @RuislipR @virginmedia Virgin - abysmal. Went with them for a year (for my dad) and it was a disaster from start to finish. Should never have left SKY. Went straight back to them.

  • gorgeousuk anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Or maybe that’s wishful thinking. Anyway. We will be considering our options over the weekend and I don’t think we will be staying with VM. Bad service is too regular now

  • deanspread Deano (@deanspread) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia just paid £14 for a film off media store but it just won’t load. Absolute joke of a service

  • D2SDKATO SD KATO (@D2SDKATO) reported from Barnet, England

    @Classicbritcom @0824Scon @virginmedia Several time and I also hate the fact it’s always India or Philippines you speak to never anyone in England they don’t understand a word customers are saying it’s Disgraceful

  • AlexanderRyll Kiwi in Barnes (@AlexanderRyll) reported from Richmond, England

    @sharonodea @virginmedia Yes there is a problem with the fibre optic into Barnes, regularly happens to me.

  • angelab2711 angela b (@angelab2711) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Service has literally just been restored so I'm guessing it was just an outage

  • StefanANASTASE3 Stefan ANASTASESCU (@StefanANASTASE3) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia hi , have been trying to contact you for the last month. Each time been waiting for 25-30 minutes with no answer. Today after 10min someone answered but said cannot access my account. When I insisted she needed to make a note she cut me off. Awful!

  • StefanANASTASE3 Stefan ANASTASESCU (@StefanANASTASE3) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia Hi it’s with Media. Need to cancel subscription to Sky Premier channels and that requires 30day notice, which I haven’t been able to do for the last 30days...and it keeps rolling into another month and so on...

  • angelab2711 angela b (@angelab2711) reported from Islington, England

  • ShoezooN14 gerard owen (@ShoezooN14) reported

    @antbfc @virginmedia Find out if it’s just you or local area, we had to wait for them to send engineers to find fault. Best to look on Facebook or Nextdoor, sounds like you have the same problem as us so I think it the whole of your area out. Just have to wait for them to fix it and ask for a refund

  • Reynawastaken_ Reyna (@Reynawastaken_) reported

    @virginmedia you make enough money so fix your wifi providers bozo🤨

  • MrMirUK Aimz (@MrMirUK) reported

    @virginmedia This was not resolved today on the engineers visit. They said its not possible to move around mini boxes like sky q mini box as it leaves "ports open which create noise on the network"

  • xSinqer xSinqer (@xSinqer) reported

  • Cristin3518 Cristin (@Cristin3518) reported

    Many people I know are being harassed by Virgin Media, for a contract that was never renewed. DO NOT TAKE OUT ANY CONTRACT WITH VIRGIN MEDIA. They are deceitful and have been overcharging.
