    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!

    @virginmedia An absolute joke of call , Your advisor just told me to cancel my full contract !! He was laughing and joking with people whilst on the call to me , Can someone please call me ?

    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)

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

    @virginmedia The ‘step by step help’ doesn’t help. It tells me thing I already know - restart hub check connections, reset.

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

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

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

    @virginmedia Pretty sure you could be asking fir my details in a DM. Otherwise, what was the point in replying to me in the first place. Never mind, I’ll stick to keep calling.

    @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!

  • 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

    @virginmedia I’ve phoned numerous times and had to hang up as constantly kept waiting, but will try again this evening when it might be easier to speak to someone

  • 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.

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

    Hi @virginmedia after 2 weeks of repeated calls and being promised a new remote ordered each time when it wasn’t, I finally reached a customer service agent called Maciej Betnat who took the time yesterday and today to help. He is great & I want to see that this is recognised. 👏🏻

  • lordofanywhere
    dios mio la creatura 🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦 (@lordofanywhere) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia is a complete and utter joke in Glasgow. Apparently there is a fault and won’t be resolved until January 5th. On Twitter, they redirect us to the service status page, which is “experience some problems” and we can’t check service status. Compensation is in order.

  • Chban1967
    Banjo (@Chban1967) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia The point is the contract sent out on 15th Aug wasn't what was agreed when challenged I got put on the virgin no customer service merry-go-round which due to our personal circumstances i had to give up u are an absolute rotten company ur service agent admitted this was appalling

  • jamboross
    Ross R MacLean (@jamboross) reported from East Kilbride, Scotland

    @virginmedia I was extremely impressed with the service that I received tonight to arrange for my services to be looked at on the 3rd of October. The handlers manners were perfect and I'm delighted with the service that we received. Please pass this onto him, thanks.

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

  • anandcheam
    Anand Gupta (@anandcheam) reported

    @virginmedia can you spend some money on customer care so they can answer calls / chats and LISTEN when they do ? You guys sent me 2016 router box when the agreement was to send the latest and now no one is licking up the phone, is that joke? @Ofcom British regulators need to penalise where it starts hurting the service company. Like they do in the USA, 100s of millions of pounds or billions. Not peanuts.

  • FrankDieterT
    Frank Dieter T (@FrankDieterT) reported

    @virginmedia - complaint, your team refuse to honour an offer emailed on 25 Aug 26 - new contract offer # 100472086139 - area 24. Not impressed.

  • stephenm68
    Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported

    @virginmedia If you check the DMs I’ve sent you 42 messages in the last 16 days. You have replied to lots of them. But you have never been able to tell me why the fix is taking so long, whether/when any engineering staff have actually turned up to look at our cabling, or when it will be fixed

  • AlisonBaines4
    Alison Baines (@AlisonBaines4) reported

    @virginmedia We reported an issue with our virgin internet being down on 20/8. Came home from a weeks holiday today still not sorted Open reach have been doing work outside our house and all your team have said they can send someone 31/8.This is not acceptableHow do we escalate?

  • vdaybabygirl85
    Krystle (@vdaybabygirl85) reported

    @virginmedia - I had serious connection issues. Complaints team got in touch and thought it was resolved. But it's not. The issues are STILL ongoing and as for the last 8 weeks or so I'm struggling with intermittent service. I want the fixed. I'm sick and tired of it now

  • Torexeon
    Torexeon (@Torexeon) reported

    @wrighty1707 @virginmedia It was me who suggested this when I worked for them. I designed it to get you on the phone to retentions, because a huge percentage of customers would just sit out of contract or complain online about astronomical pricing. Granted not every customer is able to get a decent deal.

  • DarylCatpiss
    Mr Daryl T Catpiss (@DarylCatpiss) reported

    Hi @virginmedia im trying to login to sky sports on my phone, its not sending me a confirmation email to login, ive done it 6 times over the last hour and nothing has been received, can you explain please?

    KopiteinPoland (@KopiteinPoland) reported

    I never had issue with @o2 until they merged with virgin media. Now I wouldn’t recommend them to anyone. You try and use the website, pages don’t load. Information isn’t available. How do you keep on top of your account. #awfulservice #neveragain
