    @virginmedia Email sent hopefully I will get a speedy resolution. Another 40 minutes of my time wasted!!

    @virginmedia The checks tell me there are issues. regardless I don’t really care about wider issues in my area. I’ve been sent in a loop for the past month and it’s still broken, I’ve been paying for this time and not receiving a service - this is not the first time either @Ofcom

    @MargMarvelous @virginmedia I know. Virgin is down in Glasgow but I still need a new hub as the reset button on mine is broken. I’ve been going in circles on the app and website for the best part of an hour. A simple email address would have resolved it in 5 minutes!

  • Lshire_Laird
    The Lanarkshire Laird (@Lshire_Laird) reported from Motherwell, Scotland

    So @virginmedia broadband and tv appears to be down (again) for hours and their webpage to check service status is offline. I’m currently having to connect my work laptop to my personal phone just to work. This is not good!

  • Jockthrax
    Gallagher D (@Jockthrax) reported from Airdrie, Scotland

    @virginmedia Possibly the worst company I have ever dealt with. Cut off twice. I only wanted to buy a new remote. Absolute shambles of a company. Disgraceful customer service.

  • nuttynanaannie
    Anne Marie McPhee (@nuttynanaannie) reported from Motherwell, Scotland

    @virginmedia Thanks. I'll try that. When I do a status check it flags Tivo right away but shows no issues with broadband or phone when I then run a broadband check it says there's an intermittent fault in my area. !

  • G1NG355
    AR #55 (@G1NG355) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia Yes, we got our package reduced.. And was quoted a price for basic TV, phone line and WiFi.. We received an email confirming this but upon receiving this our TV services was disconnected. On the email it stated that no TV service was included, upon calling up.. We were told this

    Loraine Riddick (@LoraineRiddick2) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia How can I phone 151 when my phone line isn’t working! And yes, I’ve dialled the 0345 number on many occasions yet still can’t speak to anyone!!no doubt I will hear from you when I cancel my direct debit and move to another supplier!

  • spongebath63
    Willem_Wikkelspies (@spongebath63) reported from Dennistoun, Scotland

    @virginmedia What is going on with your customer care(?) line? I call 789, I get an automated voice telling me that calls are not being connected to this number and I'm told to call 789 to speak to a member of the team, so i call 789, I get an automated voice.........!

  • DRoss215
    David (@DRoss215) reported from Paisley, Scotland

    @virginmedia I have never experienced such shocking service on the telephone for 150 mins still not resolved. I have 2 properties in the one block I requested one of them to be disconnected! VM disconnected both the tenant is now screaming at me as she works from home 😡😡

    Anne Marie McPhee (@nuttynanaannie) reported from Motherwell, Scotland

    @virginmedia Can anyone advise when I will have Internet. Been down since early hours and I return to work from home tomorrow. J6st says there's intermittent connection issue.

  • H0raceWimp

    @virginmedia What am I supposed to do when your systems fail and there is no-one to contact for a fix?

  • tonymccaffery
    Tony McCaffery (he/they) (@tonymccaffery) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    Hey @virginmedia, can you help please? I’ve never plugged a landline phone to my router since becoming a customer. (I never needed one til now). So I just took the voip/landline adapter out the box and it’s broken. How do I get a new one so that I can plug in a landline? Thanks.

  • LoraineRiddick2
    Loraine Riddick (@LoraineRiddick2) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia It says there are no problems in my area!what does it take to actually speak to someone, or get a technician out to check where fault is originating from!it’s absolutely shocking!Ive worked in customer service for a good many years, and never experienced such awful service!

  • ChristianBunga7
    bristian cungay (@ChristianBunga7) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    Hey @virginmedia it’d be pretty cool if you guys fixed my internet at some point. Like i know I’ve only spent £30 trying to call you guys and I did get to speak to this nice angry man on your support line who hung up on me immediately (which is a bargain)

  • tofolo_1
    David A (@tofolo_1) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia how do I contact the help team? Recently joined and trying to setup billing / online account says to call you. But 0345 is 30p a minute. Can't find webchat, can't find text thing, don't have a live landline yet. I can access the dark web easier!

  • MekQuarrie
    Ian MacQuarrie (@MekQuarrie) reported from Cumbernauld, Scotland

    Anyone else experiencing terrible broadband with @virginmedia right now? Getting into a second week now... 🤷

  • donmackeen
    don mackeen (@donmackeen) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia had the technician come out today after days of patchy service. Got the hub changed, and ... Service still terrible. And now I'm to wait "24 hours"...

  • KevinMuldoon
    Kevin Muldoon (@KevinMuldoon) reported

    @virginmedia has to be the worst ISP in the UK. Currently raising a CISAS complaint against them due to how they're terrorirising my elderly mother. May have to take this to small claims too as it's impossible to speak to any UK staff who can resolve anything.

    @LeighHutch90 @virginmedia For what we pay it’s crap

  • FrazzzYT

    @virginmedia Apparently you're still looking into issues in the area... two months on from looking into issues in the area

  • smith_john33910
    John smith (@smith_john33910) reported

    @LordDunners @ryantegan @skytv When I wanted to cancel Virgin Media they would not let me. I had to force a cancellation by withholding payment. Yes I got rid of Virgin Media..but it left a nasty “non payment” black mark on my credit rating. So beware!

  • 73Joshi
    Aashish Joshi (@73Joshi) reported

    @virginmedia are you guys doing firmware updates? Router has green flashing lights and typically it’s outside your support hours

  • Msenior89Senior
    Mark senior (@Msenior89Senior) reported

    @virginmedia absolute joke of a service, cant watch the rugby league again!! When are you going to sort out these issues its beyond a joke!

  • Eyezwideopen3
    Eyezwideopen (@Eyezwideopen3) reported

    DO NOT JOIN, WORST COMPANY EVER. They have been adding fees onto my account. Simply because ive been paying £29 which is what was stated. But apparently its supposed to be £42 @virginmedia

  • bart_hajduk
    Bartłomiej Hajduk (@bart_hajduk) reported

    @virginmedia I've written to the local council, hopefully they will enforce the repairs or issue a fine.

    @danielarf21 I’m with you on Virgin Media not showing it anymore, really disappointing tbh as there was a fanbase for it. But willing to give this series a go, the trailer isn’t the worst. People saying it’s “Ai Slop” need to chill, unfortunately it’s gonna be the norm for a lot of shows

  • RDG_C
    Richard D G Cox (rcox.bsky.social) (@RDG_C) reported

    Hello @virginmedia might you please have your legal department confirm their address for service of documents such as, for example, formal “letters before action”? It would of course have been preferable if the question had not had to be asked, but … we are where we are.
