    It's annoying that @virginmedia customer service refused to acknowledge this other persons details had some how been linked to my email with my bank account on their account.

  • theresahiggins Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Sorry, I have done as above. It is still agonisingly slow. Cannot access emails properly. Cannot send attachments. It is the broadband that is the problem. TV is fine.

  • steevXIII Steve Tovey (@steevXIII) reported from Colchester, England

    Anyone else have a problem with All4 app on @virginmedia Can access the menu / home page but anytime I try to actually watch a programme I get a black screen & 4 dots endlessly blinking, as if buffering, but the show never, eeeevveerrr appears... On Googling, seems common issue?

  • robinsontonyLIR be kind and be nice. (@robinsontonyLIR) reported from Colchester, England

    @InTheseHeels Have you tried turning it on and off again? .....OK in all seriousness it happens to me on my LAN . I concluded as I'm on a domestic connection, Virgin Media , I suspect they refresh the network to loose dormant connections periodically and I get booted off for a few secs

  • leipperm m (@leipperm) reported from Braintree, England

    @virginmedia I just spoke to your customer service team a d was transferred to 2 different opperators before they just hang up on me with out resolving the issue .

  • theresahiggins Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I will try again by unplugging the router etc. However other people living near me are also experiencing problems. It is not just me.

  • kennythekilt kenny wilson (@kennythekilt) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Nope didn’t hear back from them I wasn’t wasting my time and your poor customer service

  • kennythekilt kenny wilson (@kennythekilt) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Not worth it if you cared it would have been dealt with I will leave and tell everyone and anyone to avoid your NOT customer caring company

  • 2FingersRampant 2 Fingers Rampant (@2FingersRampant) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia service completely out at CO2 8QA and local area. Status page says all ok, so can you explain this please. Urgent work priority.

  • Griggsy1968 Mark Griggs (@Griggsy1968) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia So, 3 phone calls over 50 mins all cut off! All I wanted to do was pay off a handset and upgrade a contract. Customer service 0/10!

  • theresahiggins Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Yes done as above. Still agonising slow. Cannot send attachments on emails.

  • theresahiggins Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I am using my laptop, tablet and phone. Emails are slow on all machines.

  • Laitty Graeson Laitt (@Laitty) reported from Colchester, England

    Great time for my internet to go down again. Third time this week @virginmedia #colu

  • steevXIII Steve Tovey (@steevXIII) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Hi. Please read the thread. One App doesn't work properly, my TV box is generally fine. From a quick Google I can see it is a problem for other people with Virgin Media TiVo boxes too where the @All4 app doesn't load programmes. I can access the app and all the menu screens.

  • theresahiggins Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia how long will it take to fix my internet connection. CO1 area. Main problem is a slow speed for emails.

  • kennythekilt kenny wilson (@kennythekilt) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Your staff should put the customer first pass the enquiry to another team member take break late or offer a call back

    @virginmedia No there aren't any issues with broadband we don't have any, we just use Data and Hotspots .

  • RennicksShev Shev rennicks (@RennicksShev) reported

    @virginmedia 1 hour 49 mins later a very nice lady has sorted me (hopefully). Not the service I’d expect after being a customer for over 10 years!

  • LFCSteAl 'Legacy fan' (@LFCSteAl) reported

    @virginmedia I've been experiencing intermittent issues connecting to my employer's network drives through my home WiFi. 1 of your colleagues sent a booster signal on Fri and advised doing a reset of hub. Unfortunately these steps haven't resolved it. Pls advise of next steps.

  • astolante Louise🐦🐝🌵🧀🐌 (@astolante) reported

    @virginmedia you are continuing to chase me for payment for a service I have never used but had taken paymentsfor. When I try to log onto the site, my email and account details don't exist. The hub was never active as I don't have the right socket and never had one installed

  • Jas21991897 Jas (@Jas21991897) reported

    @virginmedia What is happening at this company?! Sick and tired of being passed from pillar to post, nobody accepting any responsibility, dropped calls and cold transfers. Can anybody actually help me????

  • aliander alex wright (@aliander) reported

    @Ryansims9 @virginmedia I'm having problems too ry. Effing no good

  • elaine_ells Elaine Ellis (@elaine_ells) reported

    @virginmedia I've been on hold for a very long time, my sister passed away and I want to cancel her services. I also want to know why she was being charged for broadband when she requested several years ago for this to be removed. She has never been online...ever.

  • JoeCoyne Joe Coyne (@JoeCoyne) reported

    @virginmedia Your engineer visited on Friday and had to replace the router as it was faulty. I would expect you to provide a partial refund for the service I have been unable to use for the past 3-4 months

  • robintjohnson8 Robin Johnson (@robintjohnson8) reported from Coventry, England

    @virginmedia As I am a sane human being, I’ve already looked online for help. Why answer like this - an obvious bot response. ??

  • RobShepard11 RobShepard (@RobShepard11) reported

    @virginmedia My broadband will be out of service for over a week and VirginMedia think that’s acceptable service!
