  • leemcrae76 Lee McRae (@leemcrae76) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia Yes I did, just this morning. The system diagnosed a fault and asked me to reset my router. I did and it started working again (as it always does tbh) and has since gone down again. I would like to know how to book an Engineer to call please ASAP! Thanks

  • DiscoEquinox Equinox Disco (@DiscoEquinox) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia @stephen_twitt Good luck calling that customer service number. @virginmedia should try calling themselves

  • leemcrae76 Lee McRae (@leemcrae76) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia Internet down again in NN5. There is no issue with the equipment or set up. What is the issue locally? Goes down about 8-10 times for 30 mins or so every day. Please can you respond ASAP.

  • EppsRacer Mike Epps 🇬🇧🇳🇿 (@EppsRacer) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia On your website the only way to verify if those details are correct is by “contacting our Customer Care team”, which is hours of waiting and often only to get cut off before I talk to someone. You guys are literally unbelievable.

  • DiscoEquinox Equinox Disco (@DiscoEquinox) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia Yes. Want to keep my broadband service only. It amazes me that you can get a response in social media almost instantly but can’t get a response elsewhere for love nor money

  • TMITV19 Let's get back to normal #KBF (@TMITV19) reported from Bedford, England

    @virginmedia Eventually I looked at my phone and saw that they'd replied after 3 hours. I saw it half an hour later and replied but they then weren't talking to me. The next day I called up and got through after 3 minutes. Using covid as an excuse for poor service is awful.

  • mrsloucampbell Lou Campbell❤️⚽️ (@mrsloucampbell) reported from Bedford, England

    @virginmedia Could you please highlight exactly what clause you want me to read ? I am a disabled mother of 3 with her daughter needing internet for gcse - which You can’t provide- she needs internet to study. I am NOT cancelling contract - you are - by not providing service that I pay for

  • DiscoEquinox Equinox Disco (@DiscoEquinox) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp The problem is with getting through on the phone or live chat. It’s very easy to add or upgrade services but god help you if you want to remove any services or leave. I was on hold for over two hours last night only to be cut off. I’ve been connected to live chat since 17:43 0901

  • RichardPFisher Richard Fisher (@RichardPFisher) reported from Wilby, England

    Yay! @vmbusiness has **** the bed once again, third time in a week. Going to have to put a smart switch on it so I can remote reset the router.

  • russsanders2 russ sanders (@russsanders2) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia I have been told that my bill will rise by £20. What a joke. Sky here we come. Constant issues with virgin.

  • gsolomonphoto Garry Solomon Photography (@gsolomonphoto) reported from Rushden, England

    @virginmedia chat service is down, no one to answer technical calls, a website that sends you round and round in circles! Is it at all possible that someone is still working who can solve my broadband issues before I cancel my direct debit?

  • mrsloucampbell Lou Campbell❤️⚽️ (@mrsloucampbell) reported from Bedford, England

    @virginmedia That is a joke - as I want to take @virginmedia with me - so are you saying I should be choosing a house based on virgin media’s’ service ??? it’s not my fault you don’t service the area.... why am I being penalised ? You are breaking the contract by not providing the service.

  • DiscoEquinox Equinox Disco (@DiscoEquinox) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @richardbranson @Virgin_Orbit Any chance of getting my virgin media sorted. I hope the service on your space craft is better out wise people will be paying through the nose to come back to earth. #sortyourshitout

  • leemcrae76 Lee McRae (@leemcrae76) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia Internet is down again in NN5. The service here is so unreliable. Can you please pass this over to your complaints team as a matter of urgency and ask them to DM me please?

  • TMITV19 Let's get back to normal #KBF (@TMITV19) reported from Bedford, England

    @virginmedia The outcome of the call was what I wanted. I mean your pour service telling people to sit online for 4 hours waiting for someone to talk to me rather than call your call centres. If I'd called up straight away I'd not have needed to tweet you. You didn't even tweet back quickly.

  • TMITV19 Let's get back to normal #KBF (@TMITV19) reported from Bedford, England

    @virginmedia Yes after a phone call. Now I'm actively looking into moving to @skytv after the poor service.

  • EppsRacer Mike Epps 🇬🇧🇳🇿 (@EppsRacer) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia Rather than an apology, how about a warning text or email stating when my broadband will be down or interrupted? So I can plan ahead, not waste mine and others time and money, and feel like I’m a customer and not a complete idiot for paying for this? I’m finally back online.

  • mrsloucampbell Lou Campbell❤️⚽️ (@mrsloucampbell) reported from Bedford, England

    @virginmedia You’re call centre is not helpful. I’ve spent 2.5 weeks trying to contact you. I am not cancelling the contract - you are- it’s not my fault you don’t provide my new house but you expect me ti@oay £300+ To cancel a contract that I want to keep- you r cancelling. Not me.

  • gsolomonphoto Garry Solomon Photography (@gsolomonphoto) reported from Rushden, England

    @virginmedia My broadband fluctuates, but even when I’m getting above 200mbps WiFi , my Ethernet to the back of the house is 5-10mbps. I’ve done all your tests, but read lots of comments that this is due to the virgin hub. Can you find a solution so I can work from home please!

  • NICKJSIMONS Nick Simons (@NICKJSIMONS) reported from Bedford, England

    @virginmedia trying to cancel Sky Sports for my mum after my fathers death. Repeatedly On hold for 50 mins each time then you hang up. No facility to do it online!! Any help.

  • Melocan61 Melocan (@Melocan61) reported

    @virginmedia So all I need to do is paying the full amount on the bill and then sit down and wait till you refund me? If you do not, I will try to call your customer service which approximately answers in an hour:) or I can reply your tweets and you can act like helping me again on twitter.👏

  • HuseyinYKCS Hüseyin YÜCEKAYA (TR) / Hussein HUGEROCK (EN) (@HuseyinYKCS) reported

    Thank you #virginmedia for shitting in my day. I have been trying to just cancel my account with #virginmedia and being transferred from one department to another which is wasted my day with a stupid tape record for more than 1 hour every time. Adding the call screenshot.

  • 52Wolf Nina Sinclair 💙 (@52Wolf) reported

    @virginmedia why am I receiving numerous calls telling me that my service is going to be cut? When I question the callers (obvs not UK based), they hang up on me? I can't block the numbers as they're coming up private. Also, I'm having massive wifi issues with linked devices.

  • mrmaginnis stephen maginnis (@mrmaginnis) reported

    @virginmedia hello i'm awaiting a refund and recurring reduction on my monthly bill and have been for two months. been on hold an hour to two different departments who can't help. who do i call to sort this i can't afford any more inflated bills to come out

  • suzy1978 Suzanne Franklin (@suzy1978) reported

    @virginmedia The customer is always right... I think we know better than you if our service is working properly we are the ones who have to put up with it. £130+ a month for something that doesn’t even work as it should!

  • NeilCarter82 Neil (@NeilCarter82) reported

    @virginmedia I’d just like to say I think your customer service is a disgrace. You bring out a new User Interface (360) and then only roll it out to customers on the most expensive package. Your existing UI is garbage and streets behind Sky. Your customers have waited patiently....

  • clio_ambler Clio Ambler (@clio_ambler) reported

    @virginmedia Just as bad! Wifi just gone again in the middle of a school lesson and working. I hope my account will be recompensed accordingly

  • johnharris1969 John Harris (@johnharris1969) reported

    @virginmedia your automated broadband testing service has just cut off my internet. Please help

  • jess_hillyard J H (@jess_hillyard) reported

    @virginmedia absolutely so disappointed with customer services, over 3 hours spent on various phone calls with zero results or help... live chat telling me to call and phone lines telling me to use live chat! Shambolic.

  • BjayzusBob Bob Mór (@BjayzusBob) reported

    @VirginMediaIE .@VirginMediaIE Thank you, I got a helpful email from you last night, which gave me a number to call. I did, and a young man named Aaron sorted everything out for me. That said Virgin Media really need to fix their communications problems out; we customers don't like it!
