  • jasondflynn Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @virginmedia @mouthwaite Hi John; just jumping in on this. You really need to start advising customers properlyit doesn’t matter how many technicians visit it won’t solve the problem of the poor standard router and your default settings.

  • sunnydeo Sunny Deo (@sunnydeo) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia you have one hour to respond with a solution. 5 - hours spent on call centres 3 - failed outdoor pre-installations. 2 - failed indoor wifi installations. 1st - time customer. This how you treat customers? No solution today, fine, I’ll go with @skytv

  • randellauk82 Ashley (@randellauk82) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia so I’ve had three weeks of hub issues 3 engineers out I tell you how to fix the issue but ignored 3rd manager to promise call backs and got nothing had 3 days wasted of my time and down service. Getting very 😡 when big companys disrespect their long term customers

  • Dan_lutonbear dan@randrhotrodimports (@Dan_lutonbear) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia 1st issue not being able to change address from 1 property to my new address (new build). 2nd issue trying to speak to someone to cancel our account.

  • rita_gul Rita Gulrajani ⫩ (@rita_gul) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia Not satisfactorily no! Said all appointments were cancelled but never bothered to advise us!

  • mjdes Mike Desborough (@mjdes) reported from Stevenage District, England

    Hi @virginmedia I have to wait 72 hours to speak to a manager about an issue. This is after 5 hours on the phone to you and only a manager can authorise what I need. Shocking considering the amount of money we pay you. We have no working broadband for a 2 key worker house

  • jasondflynn Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @AdamDea29742908 @virginmedia But buying one between £50 and £200 will probably suit most and if it turns out it doesn’t solve your problems it hasn’t broken the bank. I went for an Asus one at about £120. Netgear is another strong brand. I had poor WiFi for years and it was a massive improvement. 2/2

  • LisaYidetteWHL Lisa 😺🛍⚽️💃💅✌🥦🥕🌽 (@LisaYidetteWHL) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    More **** with @Virginmedia - Paying well over £100 a month and now can't get any internet connection and cannot work from home! So I will not be paid. After hanging on for an eternity they say 3 days till a new hub can be sent out! Disgrace. That won't pay my bills 😡😡😡

  • jasondflynn Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @VisctFishpond @virginmedia I had similar problems to you; got the runaround from Virgin. Lots of research done and the issue is almost certainly the router. You can buy a third-party router and turn the virgin router into a modem. Solved all my problems. Worth a try.

  • flissaggie Phyllis Charles (@flissaggie) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia been trying to speak to someone about my contract been fobbed off ' our system is down' or ' I will call back' still waiting!!!

  • Jimbob_Du james Dunn (@Jimbob_Du) reported from Hoddesdon, England

    @virginmedia I received a phone call from a man , Jacob Smith purporting to be from your security department. He told me my internet had been hacked by someone in the USA. He refused any contact details after he told me to download a Quick Support app. He phoned 01606863673.

  • jasondflynn Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @virginmedia You do realise that the majority of messages sent to you are people complaining that your Wi-Fi is very poor? So perhaps concentrate on that for existing clients rather than pushing new sales? Poor router is the issue. #slowerfaraway

  • jasondflynn Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @Lindzell_LFC @virginmedia It’s their router. All the calls in the world won’t change the problem. You can buy a new router abs connect it to the Virgin one. Worked for me.

  • mrmarkgale Mark Gale (@mrmarkgale) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia Honestly, do you think 2.92mb when I'm paying for 500mb is acceptable. Been a customer for 20 years, I can't wait to leave you!

  • AndrewMorgan64 Andrew Morgan (@AndrewMorgan64) reported from Stevenage District, England

    @virginmedia the worst customer service I have experienced and what a rude person Sidney was and she would not transfer us to complaint department

  • Dan_lutonbear dan@randrhotrodimports (@Dan_lutonbear) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia do you actually have humans employed at your call centres ? After spending a total of 6 hours going from one recorded message to a automated line I have given up. I have absolutely had enough of your lack of customer service poor service poor quality broadband

  • jasondflynn Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @StMirrenDaft @virginmedia @mat_fraser One of the key issues is their router. It’s rubbish and has programming which means main signal isn’t direct for WiFi. I had this problem; buy another router and turn Virgin one into modem. It solved my problem.

  • LisaYidetteWHL Lisa 😺🛍⚽️💃💅✌🥦🥕🌽 (@LisaYidetteWHL) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    Anyone else in Hemel Hempstead having issues with sodding #Virginmedia internet? As in its beyond crap? Mine has gone down again and I now cannot work! Fuming 😡😡 And they tell me 3 days to get someone out!

  • GoldBoutique1 Mary (@GoldBoutique1) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia thank you again for no service and intermittent internet non stop now fir ongoing 2 weeks can’t you just find fault and fix it not happy so frustrating 🤬🤬

  • sarahcoysgabb sarah gabb (@sarahcoysgabb) reported from Broxbourne District, England

  • cardio_clements Ben Clements (@cardio_clements) reported

    @virginmedia hi virgin. Need help with redeeming a voucher from a package I bought with you guys. I haven’t received an email with the voucher details. Help please

  • DFHSIP Mark Laughton (@DFHSIP) reported

    @virginmedia my broadband and TV are down AGAIN?? Ng6. This is bloody ridiculous. I’m trying to work (on-call). I’m also recording the F1! 2nd outage in 4 weeks. Really not impressed, moreso given the amount I pay you monthly for crap service. I need RELIABILITY not speed! 🤬🤬🤬

  • missamym Amy Morgan (@missamym) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, my mum doesn’t have an online account and her bill number isn’t recognised when I try to set one up. So we can’t get anyone online to help us. Your colleague on twitter was helping me- we had an online chat and I was to check back in when mum got a letter in the post.

  • n_aliciaT Nicole Talbot (@n_aliciaT) reported

    @virginmedia can you please share an email to your complaints department? I haven't found one on the site. Also, the complaints procedure on the site isn't effective for me - thag doesn't work either.

  • stoddy89 The Grim Tweeter (@stoddy89) reported

    @virginmedia 4. But you are refusing to. You can't provide a service which has ramifications much more important than Virgin Media. Your services are rubbish and your Customer Service leaves a lot to be desired. I will be contacting my MP and House of Commons re this matter. GT

  • n_aliciaT Nicole Talbot (@n_aliciaT) reported

    @virginmedia @NiiNiiFC @Flav_Bateman Hi there. My complaint has been closed for some reason so I'm back to square one. Can someone please contact me about a rather serious matter a I'm trying to resolve something here.

  • lookitssimon Simon Davidian (@lookitssimon) reported

    @a_peezy22 @virginmedia Is fake complaint - how u posting this den!!!

  • jurgenlovessix darren gotham (@jurgenlovessix) reported

    @virginmedia why are you so inflexible when it comes to existing customers wanting to downgrade due to costs? Would you rather lose customers than help them stay?

  • deanphillips257 Dean Phillips (@deanphillips257) reported

    @virginmedia Still not good enough ever since Iv been sent the new hub it’s been poor the WiFi doesn’t reach the doesnt reach the one bedroom my daughter keeps getting cut off an my Xbox through a cable doesn’t hold it’s connection speed

  • DerekSm15833987 Derek Smith (@DerekSm15833987) reported

    @virginmedia use our online support, or wait an hour for customer service - how else can we report speeds (connected to router by cat cable) at less than 10% of tariff speed, and a router that regularly drops off?
