    I've never had a more frustrating ISP than @virginmedia support lines provide no help and we're stuck in a loop of disconnects whilst being told nothing is wrong.

  • mrmjprice MJP ☀️ (@mrmjprice) reported from Birmingham, England

    @deepblue1990 @virginmedia Power users are utter bastards to provide support for tbf

  • poole_ste Steve Re-cycle (@poole_ste) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia Good afternoon #Virginmedia my problems still go on I have had an engineer visit problem not a fault but from when I first started with you. Contacted customer service who promised a manager would contact me. Nothing since except one scam call. #nothappy

  • TimEvans1503 Tim Evans (@TimEvans1503) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Would it be ok to not just send me the same message each time but tell me how you’re going to make sure the service what it should be? Both my wife and my work is utterly dependent on good internet access

  • shannxnj Shannon Johnson (@shannxnj) reported from Birmingham, England

    Tried to submit a complaint form to get in touch as your team have been so slow in responding. How can I get this resolved? @virginmedia

  • TimEvans1503 Tim Evans (@TimEvans1503) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia big thanks for your rubbish service that meant I dropped out of giving a lecture part way through - we pay a small fortune and expect decent service

  • tweet_estaa Adwoa Agyeiwaa (@tweet_estaa) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia If these pods don’t work, I’ll back with more reasons for why people should avoid using your rubbish service. It’s pathetic really that I have to come on Twitter to do this for you to be bothered just because of reputation. Disgraceful

  • TimEvans1503 Tim Evans (@TimEvans1503) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia yet again last night and now this morning your service is t working despite the large amount we pay you every month. The two of us work from home - you are costing us business. If you can’t provide a decent consistency service then admit it and we’ll change provider

  • Pedro_661 Pedro661™ (@Pedro_661) reported from Wednesfield, England

    Yaaaaaay @virginmedia is down again 👏👏 managed to provide a stable service for a week.

  • charlottetomtom Charlotte (@charlottetomtom) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia trying to call to cancel my son’s broadband now he’s left his student digs. Called three times now, get passed to the cancellation team, on hold for 30mins then get cut off. THREE TIMES IN A ROW. please help

  • poole_ste Steve Re-cycle (@poole_ste) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia Hi please see thread of conversation it will tell you re manager I have asked twice to speak to a manager once about a month ago and again on Sat 18 July I have never had a manager ring me yet 😒 on 18th I was told they would today 20 July

  • mrmjprice MJP ☀️ (@mrmjprice) reported from Birmingham, England

    Turns out turning your @virginmedia Hub 4 off and on again resets the 2.4GHz network name.

  • poole_ste Steve Re-cycle (@poole_ste) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia I also asked to be put through to complaints as I have done before and then the phone goes dead. I have been so reliant on my old number sick older members of family in times of great stress #help

  • poole_ste Steve Re-cycle (@poole_ste) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia If this keeps on where can I complain next? @tsascheme @OmbudServices as I can #Virginmedia don't seem to take the problems they create and being a service provider seriously

  • simplepics66 Simple pics 📷 🇬🇧 (@simplepics66) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @leonagraham @virginmedia Never do, my Vodafone WiFi been crap for weeks now, no refund as they said, complaint going in this week

  • poole_ste Steve Re-cycle (@poole_ste) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia Thank you for this but I do seem to have done everything mentioned in your document through ringing 150 so far no senior manager has got back to me! Me thinks maybe something is not working but will try again 🤔 oh yes even been through #resolution

  • tweet_estaa Adwoa Agyeiwaa (@tweet_estaa) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia They said they’ve run diagnostics and found no issues so basically I’m making it up in my head ???? Tbh this is terrible and a waste of time paying my bill

  • poole_ste Steve Re-cycle (@poole_ste) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    Why did I swop to #virgin? 2 months ago and nothing but problems @virginmedia it took over 20 days to get my tel no changed then you change again why did you not tell me! How do you expect anyone to contact me V useless biggest mistake and very £xpensive one with poor WiFi too.

  • tweet_estaa Adwoa Agyeiwaa (@tweet_estaa) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia That’s not what my issue is. WHY IS THE INTERNET SO INCONSISTENT??? - and threatening to charge a £240 to cancel the contract for wifi that does work is very poor customer service!

  • tweet_estaa Adwoa Agyeiwaa (@tweet_estaa) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been having issues with my wifi since I got it last year and now we’ve been talked into getting a “pod” for an extra £5 p/m only for the guy to say it still doesn’t guarantee wifi speed. Whatever you lot are smoking please quit.

  • SimmoSimms Jess Pearson (@SimmoSimms) reported

    @virginmedia what is the process when trying to discuss deals? Calling isnt getting anywhere. 2 times my parents have been told they cannot get any deals or even be connected to retentions. Very bad service for a family who have only ever been a virgin customer

  • rrllw Richard LW (@rrllw) reported

    Such is my confidence in @virginmedia after 3 days of problems, that I'm now downloading the evening's viewing in advance, just in case...

  • e0f50c028951480 Adam Smith (@e0f50c028951480) reported

    Could I have some help with my phone please. No one is answering on whatsapp and you seem to not have a live chat service anymore. My data is still not working after I system updated and accessed the APN settings. @virginmedia

  • walmsley_philip philip walmsley (@walmsley_philip) reported

    @virginmedia No one is at my house when I’m at work apart from my dogs. I never in 20 years bought a film from virgin

  • Peace4Love121 be nice to each other (@Peace4Love121) reported

    @virginmedia @BeusmansP Virgin is a load of bull ****

  • eddylev Eddy Leviten 💙 (@eddylev) reported

    Appalling service from @virginmedia who’ve cut off the internet whilst supposedly upgrading the service and it’s been down since Monday! #omnishambles @ruskin147 might empathise as I know he’s had issues in the past too @Ofcom

  • natuk8791 The Honest Politician (@natuk8791) reported

    @virginmedia Today I wanted to cancel my broadband , I have talked with 3 different person but nothing happened ! The last one said “ please stay on the line I will transfer you my team” after waiting 15 min for transfer , the phone cancelled! I am really fed up !

  • d_carville83 Daniel Carville (@d_carville83) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks but that doesn’t really address the issue. If I follow the link to contact options for leaving and it only gives phone or writing in as options. Not to worry though I’ve made a complaint via WhatsApp and will advise them of your response.

  • SianABentley Sian Bentley (@SianABentley) reported

    @virginmedia Slow, intermittent connection. Various points where it’s dropped out completely. And since mid afternoon no internet at all today. No communication whatsoever. 2 people WFH. 😡

  • mbicks66 Mark Bickerdike (@mbicks66) reported

    @virginmedia So what I need to do can’t be done online so need to speak to someone. Do I have to waste another hour of my time? Maybe if I was a new customer you may be more inclined to help, but I’ve been with you over 20 years (through your various incarnations) so probably not priority.
