  • LongshanksE10 Richard Astley (@LongshanksE10) reported from Bishop's Stortford, England

    @virginmedia Hi there. Whenever we go to the iPlayer app it crashes the whole Virgin system which has to be turned off and on again. Been like that for 24 hours. Can you help please?

  • mart_compton MartinCompton (@mart_compton) reported from Bishop's Stortford, England

    If there’s a company whose ‘welcome to…’ message when you call them is more hollow and meaningless than @virginmedia I’d be surprised. The depth of their customer ‘service’ crapness must be witnessed to be believed. Expect that to witness it is to lose years off your life.

  • LongshanksE10 Richard Astley (@LongshanksE10) reported from Bishop's Stortford, England

    @virginmedia Thanks. Will I need to reboot my hub for the fix to take effect or will the service likely come back on its own?

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

    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.

  • clowee Chloe Hipwood (@clowee) reported from Haverhill, England

    Fancy doing anything about shockingly slow broadband speeds in some rural Tier 4 areas? Video chat for elderly residents in these areas during Christmas should be a given not a luck. @bt_uk @virginmedia @SkyUK . #loneliness #tier4 #christmascancelled

  • PaulCam06496194 Paul Campbell (@PaulCam06496194) reported from Bishop's Stortford, England

    @virginmedia useless broadband service and customer service are all robots with no clue

  • SalesRemedy Terry Carney 👋 (@SalesRemedy) reported from Sheering, England

    @virginmedia Ongoing issues; On ZOOM lag issue. On Netflix during viewing stops, whirls and often crashes. Day to day work, slow load on web browsers, crashes daily even with Ethernet run to office in house. Upgraded recently now £114 a month and still awful WiFi. How do I cancel my contract?

  • robandvic rob price (@robandvic) reported from Bishop's Stortford, England

    @Virgin internet is absolutely shocking and their customer support is even worse #VirginMedia #Disgraceful #customerservice

  • SmithS4dtpt98nv Nick Smith (@SmithS4dtpt98nv) reported from Sawston, England

    @virginmedia I’ve tried to make a complaint about pay per view for the boxing last night. Unable to via web site. Can I except a refund for the poor service

  • Chezzyp68 Cheron Phillips🇧🇧 (@Chezzyp68) reported from Stansted Mountfitchet, England

    @virginmedia I have received a virtual engineer call this morning. Apparently there is an issue in the area. There is no notification on the app to say this though.

  • LongshanksE10 Richard Astley (@LongshanksE10) reported from Bishop's Stortford, England

    @virginmedia Think the menu options are slightly different on the 360 software but I found network diagnostics and signal quality is “Good” and connection speed is “high”. Does that help?

  • 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 .

  • RohanAtaa Rohan Ataa (@RohanAtaa) reported from Great Notley, England

    @virginmedia @deantorris Why you guys don't have call back service?

  • LongshanksE10 Richard Astley (@LongshanksE10) reported from Bishop's Stortford, England

    @virginmedia Hi there. We have no broadband or TV services. Your customer services say there is a fault in the area CM23 but locals are reporting their services work. Earliest an engineer can come is Wednesday which would be a nightmare for us. What is going on please?

  • LongshanksE10 Richard Astley (@LongshanksE10) reported from Bishop's Stortford, England

    @virginmedia 6pm tonight. The service is coming in and out this morning which is very frustrating while working.

  • Chezzyp68 Cheron Phillips🇧🇧 (@Chezzyp68) reported from Stansted Mountfitchet, England

    @virginmedia That I still need to have an engineer attend. I keep getting mixed messages! Had to book one for next Saturday. Potentially that could be 2 weeks without a full service

  • pgull1975 Paul Gull (@pgull1975) reported from Saffron Walden, England

    @virginmedia I’ve spoken to someone who had previously chased this for me and he is still waiting on confirmation of change to residential property. He did say that once confirmed there could be another two weeks before installation. Will I be compensated for lack of service?

  • LongshanksE10 Richard Astley (@LongshanksE10) reported from Bishop's Stortford, England

    @virginmedia Hi there. Our broadband is down. Your phone line says CM23 area has problems being fixed. Website says there are no issues. Can you be the tie breaker please so we know whether it’s our hardware (again) or a broader issue?

  • Cobby309299 MrPink111 (@Cobby309299) reported

    @virginmedia The worst company I have ever dealt with, I so regret listening to the sales pitch and leaving Sky. I wish I could rip it all out and send it back. Do not join them. Worst service ever. Ignored over and over again. Complaint just ignored. Fuming

  • clydon11 Katie (@clydon11) reported

    Not that I need another reason to cancel @virginmedia but 20mins on hold already to get through to a human is definitely another

  • Leo89826702 Leo (@Leo89826702) reported

    @virginmedia Not sure why you have sent this link. Virgin swapped the network to Vodafone not O2. 🤔
