  • robbo_1962 Peter Robinson (@robbo_1962) reported from Dumbarton, Scotland

    @virginmedia I just turned everything off at the mains and restarted it all and that seems to have sorted it. Don’t know why I didn’t think to try that before. Thanks for your help and suggestions 👍

  • garydg7 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Gary ScottishEagle 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@garydg7) reported from Greenock, Scotland

    @virginmedia Your customer service is absolutely shocking. You have cut off a vulnerable pensioner twice in the past 72 hours for reasons of your own error, leaving her with no means of communication whilst apparently being unable to fix the issue for 24 hours. Shocking! 🤬

  • angie__murphy Angie Murphy (@angie__murphy) reported from Greenock, Scotland

    Has anyone got that Virgin Media 1 gig internet? If so, what's it like for stability, etc?

  • annemclean66 Anne McLean (@annemclean66) reported from Dumbarton, Scotland

    @virginmedia How do I get through to a human to discuss a problem with my neighbours Virgin account?

  • neilmacallister mac / macca (@neilmacallister) reported from Alexandria, Scotland

    @virginmedia ... any update on the G83 9PP issues ? Into the 3rd day of no TV reception and broadband connection constantly lagging...

  • LETSAVEIT_METTV Met Halil (@LETSAVEIT_METTV) reported from Greenock, Scotland

    @virginmedia red button for football not working again

  • justcall_mesir Michael Macdonald (@justcall_mesir) reported from Alexandria, Scotland

    @virginmedia - 3hrs on the phone today to several of your "Managers, Collections, and Tier 1 and 2 staff" No further forward, due to unprofessional calls, rudeness, and staff with a sloppy shoulder approach with no solution, no acceptance of error. Shocking customer service.

  • justcall_mesir Michael Macdonald (@justcall_mesir) reported from Alexandria, Scotland

    @virginmedia please have any of the following fake names call me back please ASAP....abby, abys manager, Jean on collections, Bradley who passed me on to some else cause he was out having abeer, or Luke who didn't finish finding a solution to @virginmedia's ineptitude.

  • AmandaM2282 AmandaM2282 (@AmandaM2282) reported from Alexandria, Scotland

    @virginmedia Long story short I was told information that was not correct claimed my money back after being advised to do so the money then has been added back on to my next bill and after endless chats emails complaint forms promises of a call back I’m still waiting to get this resolved

  • BETTYLAROO Steven Beattie (@BETTYLAROO) reported from Linwood, Scotland

    @virginmedia YouTube app on V6 box has had playback issues for months. Used to be black screen flashing up for a second at beginning of every video, today it's black screen throughout video and only audio. Not good 🙄

  • robbo_1962 Peter Robinson (@robbo_1962) reported from Dumbarton, Scotland

    @virginmedia Just tried that, still not working

  • cocobrown1973 Coco Brown (@cocobrown1973) reported from Dumbarton, Scotland

    @virginmedia Yeah I got it sorted however 1hr on a phone line at 30p per minute is not cheap taking a full hour to sort something that is simple is very poor customer service especially for loyal customers

  • neilmacallister mac / macca (@neilmacallister) reported from Alexandria, Scotland

    @virginmedia - As it is more than 24 hours since this issue was raised, and is still not resolved, all checks completed and no service I want to book a home visit by a technician asap. Thank you.

  • neilmacallister mac / macca (@neilmacallister) reported from Alexandria, Scotland

    @virginmedia - Internet / Broadband service has been terrible last few days, any problems in this area, I am in G83 postcode Strathleven, Alexandria. Thanks

  • garydg7 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Gary ScottishEagle 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@garydg7) reported from Greenock, Scotland

    @virginmedia Not only that, when pointing out to your CS team that the account holder was a vulnerable person, my wife was advised "what do you want me to do with that?" By the operator. Shameful. Fix her issue and stop cutting her off for no reason!!

  • neilmacallister mac / macca (@neilmacallister) reported from Alexandria, Scotland

    @virginmedia Is there a problem with TV reception in the G83 Area (Alexandria) ? Completed all diagnostic checks on my TV and Tivo box and still no reception yet. Please reply... thanks

  • garydg7 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Gary ScottishEagle 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@garydg7) reported from Greenock, Scotland

    @virginmedia ... my wife who has authority to speak on her account on her behalf has been unsuccessfully trying to get you to once again resolve the issue. As it stands, we have been advised someone will be in touch within 24 hours. Unacceptable!! My mother in law lives alone

  • rmariet7 🎄Marie🎄 (@rmariet7) reported from Greenock, Scotland

    @DannyWoodwad Been there when my mum had Virgin media. If I continue having problems, I will be changing.

  • garydg7 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Gary ScottishEagle 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@garydg7) reported from Greenock, Scotland

    @virginmedia Yes, and reinstated her service around lunchtime today. Come 5pm, they cut her off again!!

  • AllyFinlay1 Ally Finlay (@AllyFinlay1) reported

    @virginmedia @skytv hey sky! You want a customer? Virgin charging 140quid per month for a pensioner to have tv! #ripoff #offshoreuseless #callcentrewoes

  • DavidhMedium DavidH:Medium (@DavidhMedium) reported

    @virginmedia what on earth is wrong with your phone system!? I’ve called twice now to cancel my subscription spending half an hour in the queues, been transferred twice and both times the line has dropped!!

  • GoonerBadger Mark Baker (@GoonerBadger) reported

    @virginmedia hi - I am in the PE7 area and tv is impossible to watch with picture pixelating. On your website it says there is an issue but it’s expected to be fixed by 12th Jan. 4 days! Really? Re-booting only solves the problem for a few minutes.

  • Stxngfx Stxng (@Stxngfx) reported

    Internet service from @virginmedia is appalling I cba

  • FerretHucknall Hucknall Ferret Society (@FerretHucknall) reported

    @virginmedia Just provide a better service if you would for customers that have to ring you. This isn't a one off - every time we have to ring you my heart sinks at the ordeal ahead. Why not do a "mystery customer" type call yourself and share the pain?

  • 2catsandl l tay (@2catsandl) reported

    @virginmedia I can but not on here, is there a dm service?

  • couchio1983 Couchio (@couchio1983) reported

    @virginmedia @Ofcom @VirginMediaCorp Sick and tirrd of huge companies pissing all over their customers!!! I'm disabled and need my services working as I pay for! You caller me to sell this service! You came out to install this service you need to get it working!!!

  • AnnaCupani DrAnnaC (@AnnaCupani) reported

    @idrismonsur @virginmedia I was getting late for a meeting, I told them, but obviously not their problem and went on and on. I also really can't think it's an efficient business model to monitor your (potential) clients' clicks on line and harass them by call! Glad I'm not the only one to find it... Bad!

  • O_Widow E.C. Pirie (@O_Widow) reported

    @virginmedia We have rebooted multiple times it doesnt change anything. Its a dns server issue on your side because when i check through my ethernet it tells me that my pc is fine but my internet is not

  • sabau_vlad Vlad (@sabau_vlad) reported

    @virginmedia for some reason when I connect to my home WiFi I get the privacy warning thing. How can I fix it please ? At the moment it doesn’t connect only if I reset my router but after a while it stops again, why ?
