  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia No, they just left. Rang your customer service they are now telling me the problem is internal. I’ve had no internet since July, no tv since August. It’s beyond a joke now. 5 visits I’ve had.

  • realjackoh187
    Jack Kelly (@realjackoh187) reported from Widnes, England

    @virginmedia Visit was fine replaced wifi. I was never out of Internet completely like it says only your compensation page, but it was equally as bad since my step daughter had online training to do which couldn't be done at all. My children also were not able to do homework.

  • _samhowell
    ⚒ Sam ⚒ Warrington Hammer ⚒ (@_samhowell) reported from Warrington, England

    Also @virginmedia need to remind their call centre staff that customers are not idiots; the guy I was talking to had no idea why the link wasnt working so asdvised me to "Try again after 5, if its still not working call back" wonder if he managed clock out bang on 5?

  • Radebreast
    Graeme Radebe (@Radebreast) reported from Ormskirk, England

    @virginmedia Hi - Ive noticed alot of people are having the same issues. Its the Sky TV Go app on Playstation 4. Ive checked it on another internet and it works fine so it is definitely an error on your side. You need to sort the internet settings. It struggles to load “on Now” on the app.

  • tomrushton88
    Tom Rushton (@tomrushton88) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia And the last complaint I raised over this got cancelled because it didn't have any details to the complaint even though all the messages are there to see through your WhatsApp service but the retentions team can't see that or deal with the complaint or help in anyway way

  • Duddydudson
    Kevin Dudson (@Duddydudson) reported from Wigan, England

    @NigelJTurner @virginmedia Same for me, I can cancel or change my package by the 28th of march then get a 19% increase on my new package on the 1st of April. Only had my contract 5 months.being **** Turpind here!!!

  • CryptoDan2k
    CryptoDan2k (@CryptoDan2k) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia Yes I did! Look at the last screen shot, that page was down as well with an error message. Useless copy and paste replys. Not helpful atall

  • CryptoDan2k
    CryptoDan2k (@CryptoDan2k) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia Done it again, 3 outages in 3 days. Very poor

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia can someone help me please? I’m about to lose my ****. Never ever known anything like this company. Now telling me lies on WhatsApp. Saying i logged an issue weeks after engineers had already been out to find the fault. Refusing compensation after 4 mths no service.

  • tuite_liz
    Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia I first informed Virgin Media that my internet was down via online chat on Friday afternoon. Will this have automatically been the time when my loss of service was registered as at the time the advisor said it would be fixed in 24 hours?

  • PaulRegent1
    Paul Regent (@PaulRegent1) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia no internet available in Bolton - must be an outage as, although coverage is very poor, it isn’t usually this poor!!

  • SimpaticoGem
    Gemma ≅ (@SimpaticoGem) reported from Walkden, England

    Tell me why with my @virginmedia wifi and my @O2 phone contract, MY WIFI CUTS OUT CONSTANTLY AND I HAVE NO SOGNAL ANYWHERE I GO?! Thought being a customer of you both was supposed to reap massive benefits for me?

  • _AdamGardiner
    Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia It works intermittently. When I speak to an advisor they fix the issue at that moment. Then, the next day it’ll cut out again and the process repeats. It was working when the engineer left, but it didn’t last 24 hours. Intermittent isn’t good enough. I rely on you for work.

  • supergran22
    Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia Thanks. Very frustrating and time consuming. Spent whole afternoon trying to sort it. Twitter not really the best way to resolve issues especially with an 82 year old.

  • CryptoDan2k
    CryptoDan2k (@CryptoDan2k) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia I'm guessing they don't work Saturday Sunday, so that will take us from Thursday to some point Monday for a resolution? Would it be quick if I phone up, send me a case ref number or something?

  • IanRobEfc1878
    IanRob79💙 (@IanRobEfc1878) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia your red button service is absolute dogshit you either get the wrong commentary or it doesn’t even come on! 🤯🤬

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Yes, this has been going on now for months. Was just on to your team to cancel, they hung up on me. I’ve never known a more woeful service. They are quick enough to take payment every month for a service I’m not getting.

  • elisabethhilto4
    Elisabeth Hilton (@elisabethhilto4) reported from Lowton, England

    @virginmedia Trying to make a complaint - signed up to a deal I clearly asked not to be. Your website doesn’t work and can’t get through on the phone. Can someone please dm me with a way to speak to someone urgently

  • tuite_liz
    Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia Can you check that I will be receiving a credit on my next bill as it has been down since Friday afternoon and I don’t think it will be fixed by 12pm today, I think that time will get changed again.

  • _AdamGardiner
    Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia Will they help if the Wi-Fi is working at the time I call? Because my issue is that when it is working, your advisors consider their work done despite telling them that it usually doesn’t last. And invariable, it doesn’t.

    Ghastly customer service from @virginmedia #O2mobile , no resolution to an issue which started in August 2024 ! Beyond a joke at this point ! Legal route is now the only way forward with this !

  • ImaginaryCard
    Mo2 (@ImaginaryCard) reported

    Hello @virginmedia the Internet has been down since 7.30am and I haven't been able to register a loss of service on your website. Wtf

  • AndrewW12290183
    Andy W (@AndrewW12290183) reported

    @virginmedia Still yet to happen. Plus you will still keep my money for a TV subscription that I never signed up for. Virgin does not reward customer loyalty. I also see you think customers issues are funny

  • AshronDesigns
    Ashron Designs (@AshronDesigns) reported

    @virginmedia I have decided to cancel after nearly 20 years! Tried live chat and all they did was reduce the package to reduce the price.

  • theandyb10
    Andrew Baynton (@theandyb10) reported

    @virginmedia this morning. After lots of wasted time and persistence, I managed to raise a complaint. They informed me no record of my conversation yesterday evening and no ability to give me a priority / urgent appointment. Furious!

  • RobinRaving
    Filius Scott (@RobinRaving) reported

    @virginmedia Nope! But have found out my new provider will be able to cancel my contract on my behalf so I don't have to go through the agony of trying to deal with your "customer service" team.

  • djacid25
    Djacid (@djacid25) reported

    Sorry about no streams . No content . I have no Internet @virginmedia say it will not be back up until the 13th . Its been off since the 5th. No word . No update. Not even a message from virgin media. I dont feel like a customer at this point . Rather just a number. Do better

  • bling_pot
    @bling_pot (@bling_pot) reported

    @virginmedia Can you explain how you can even justify increasing your broadband service to over double for a single household who limits what they use WiFi for?!

  • andymousemat
    MouseMat (@andymousemat) reported

    @virginmedia been a customer for over 12 years and given you approx £12k - Is there any chance you can replace my 6 year old hub 4 - which is old technology now.

  • SteveSmith98
    Steve Smith (@SteveSmith98) reported

    Hi @virginmedia. Fault F012283434 started last Thursday and you're now saying you don't intend to fix it at all this week. Do you actually think it's OK for your customers to be unable to work for a week? Could you not even try to explain what's wrong and what you're doing?
