  • paulwitneyphoto paulwitneyphoto (@paulwitneyphoto) reported from Ruddington, England

    @virginmedia Adding my wife's phone to the internet/tv package which should include 1, 5G phone, you need to get your customer service sorted out and people who speak English to a higher standard or better still have English speaker #dissatisfiedcustomer with @virginmedia

  • GodberKen Ken Godber (@GodberKen) reported from Annesley, England

    @virginmedia hi - I have a sim only mobile contract that's not been used for at least 18mths. I've stopped the DD as I'm unable to simply cancel via website and the number quoted to call doesn't work. I've got nowhere to go with this problem now.

  • NoGuyTest786 NoGuyTest (@NoGuyTest786) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @virginmedia Just spent 30 minutes on this text bot and it's very frustrating, they have only just taken my details from me after 30 minutes and can only communicate by sms which is useless, I'd rather wait on a phone line, shocking service, also the English is bad

  • paulwitneyphoto paulwitneyphoto (@paulwitneyphoto) reported from Ruddington, England

    @virginmedia You are clearly having a laugh at our expense. How do we complain about the service by @virginmedia @Ofcom

  • 64derby paul (@64derby) reported from Duffield, England

    @virginmedia just installed virgin broadband 350 today ! only getting 5 mbps in my study.. phoned customers services for a booster to be told none in stock and phone back in 2 weeks.. took me over an hour to speak to a person in India who couldn’t help

  • trevortuffin trevor tuffin (@trevortuffin) reported from Blackwell, England

    MESSAGE TO VIRGIN MEDIA IF MY INTERNET DROPS OUT AGAIN ONCE MORE I WILL DEFINATELY CANCEL MY CONTRACT FOR BREACH .

  • e2mrk_mark Mark Smith (@e2mrk_mark) reported from Sandiacre, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia so not only have virgin hiked my bill to £49.00... I’ve had no phone line for 12 months.. it cost me over £4.00 on my mobile to phone them. How does that work Virgin? Appalling service.

  • deb_the_dj Deborah Marshall 💙 (@deb_the_dj) reported from Sandiacre, England

    @virginmedia It drops out for a few minutes, then restarts, there is nothing I can see on your service page that helps with that. I'll try the factory reset, its the only thing I haven't tried.

  • portergill Marie Reynolds (@portergill) reported from Clifton, England

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • dgzipit David Gould (@dgzipit) reported

    Can @NetflixUK please fix their bug that identified @virginmedia WiFi routers as VPNs and then blocks the IP address. Sounds like a failed IT implementation that needs to be rolled back until it's professionally tested.

  • Traceymichell28 Tracey j (@Traceymichell28) reported

    @virginmedia This is all BS,there's a fault in the area they are obviously not bothering to repair,they keep changing the time it will be ready and it never is,you have no customer service or any answer,your only reply is from Pakistan and obviously they know nothing about the problem!

  • settolove86 M 💙 (@settolove86) reported

    @virginmedia Both are now not possible as our service is still out.

  • RH_1985 BlazeBlock3Rach 💙🐲 (@RH_1985) reported

    @aliusbatus @virginmedia My folks left them for that reason. No reward for customer loyalty.

  • Codingwolf Codewolf (@Codingwolf) reported

    @virginmedia you have now failed to apply a discount to my account that you have promised me 2 months in a row after mis-selling me a service at the setup of the account. If you don't sort it out I will be taking it up with the ombudsman. Not happy. 😑

  • lincoll67 Linda Collett (@lincoll67) reported

    @virginmedia Spoken to a female customer service rep, very helpful. Now appears to be sorted & the problem was exactly what I've been telling the other reps for the last 2 days - hadn't been activated your end!

  • pjextra Paul Jackson (@pjextra) reported

    @virginmedia really showing the love for customers.. a £10 credit to compensate for an ongoing network fault since 14th Jan, that they say won’t be fixed until at least 7th Feb, and that’s made broadband useable most days. I mean I’m just blown away by the love.

  • vish979 Vishal Raja (@vish979) reported

    @virginmedia how can I make a complaint. I was promised no changes to my service and renegotiated a new contract at 76 pounds and I got an email advising changes and removals I didn’t agree to. This was the third time i spoke to virgin and you got it wrong again.

  • Traceymichell28 Tracey j (@Traceymichell28) reported

    @virginmedia So a day and a half without any service,or any help and communication,if you're thinking of installing Virgin media, think again!

  • cottonsox34 Gary Cotton (@cottonsox34) reported

    @virginmedia I was also told the resets might take 30 mins to start working properly. I have asked for a call back from a supervisor but was told they are going to tell me the same thing and you will not upgrade my router. I hope this won’t be the case as I will just cancel my contract.
