    @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.

    @toptenpods @skytv I to have fell victim to this, but via Virgin Media, who it took fully 2 days to cancel with. Horrible experience for Mrs B.

    @virginmedia Hello I have no tv service and also cannot get into my account to do service check. ML1 5HD area of Motherwell. Channels are all pixelated and sound affected.

    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!

    @virginmedia honestly your service is shite

  • MekQuarrie

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

    @virginmedia you have the worst streaming service EVER. Thinking of quitting you, because it's 💩

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

    @virginmedia Hi, it's been like this since last Thursday. Our Tivo box is constantly flashing and apps don't work as we have no Internet probably. Internet not worked since then. Its a real issue as we need Internet to work.

  • MXK1000
    Dave (@MXK1000) reported from East Kilbride, Scotland

    Guys supposedly from @bt_uk going round the doors in EK saying my neighbours have complained of slow internet speeds. That's ok I'm on VirginMedia. They asked me to do a speed test on my phone. I told them to piss off. 1 I'm not a BT customer 2 I'm not your data source

  • 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!

  • GlasgowThat
    That Glasgow Florida Family🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏳️‍🌈 (@GlasgowThat) reported from Cambuslang, Scotland

    Virgin Media @virginmedia should be investigated by Ofcom they are taking money from people while not supplying a service. They are providing a substandard service when the do supply it. Major areas of Glasgow no internet until Jan 5th. Do not join this company they are the worst

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

    @virginmedia Still waiting on Gareth to get in touch. @Ofcom can you please help? No service since the end of January 😡😡

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

    @virginmedia Are you kidding? I am not paying 30p a minute to call you. The contact us page says webchat but no link? It also says some text service but no number? Are you also just making it impossible to get in touch. If this becomes any harder to set up billing I will cancel....

  • 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.

    @virginmedia WiFi down? , app down?

  • claireWeb
    Claire Webster (@claireWeb) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia is there an issue with G3 area of Glasgow? Service checker not working either?

  • 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.

  • AndrewTOG
    Andrew Bradley (@AndrewTOG) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    Well no @F1 the. Thanks to @virginmedia failing and not connecting. No customer support open and no response online… what dark age company is this ?

    @virginmedia your online chat to us hasn’t worked for over 6 weeks. I have only been able to cancel today after being on a 1 hour call. Please advise when my account will be credited?

  • scouse9000
    Darren (Dazza) (@scouse9000) reported

    @CheekyVic @virginmedia Yes I would totally agree with that! I had to get in touch with one of the directors to sort my account out! She waved the massive bill if I dropped my complaint!! We had closed the account 5 months before that! Shocking customer service!!

  • ROCKYDENNlS
    Rocky Dennis (@ROCKYDENNlS) reported

    @CheekyVic @virginmedia The worst

  • mastersdog
    master P (@mastersdog) reported

    @CheekyVic @virginmedia They r all the same. Was with Sky for 25 years now with Virgin. Not the best customer support

  • pearceswan
    David James Pearce (@pearceswan) reported

    @MariaSale8 @virginmedia I think you should carry your responses at this sound quite rude. I was advised I have an engineer booked for tomorrow between 4 pm and 7 pm. Please confirm I’m disabled and housebound and on Oxygen.

  • adamebond
    Adam (@adamebond) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve had a 360 remote delivered, but I didn’t order it, so I assume it was done by mistake. There’s a note on the packaging that says my current box will be wiped within five days. How can I cancel this?

  • BonesE78
    Mike B (@BonesE78) reported

    Im sick to death of your Internet dropping out EVERY DAMN DAY!!! Heres my number (check your DMs),can someone phone me ASAP to discuss compensation and termination of my contract!!! @virginmedia

  • pgreen83
    Paul Green (@pgreen83) reported

    @virginmedia just wanted to say. You ignored my last message and my DM. Sent out a replacement box for 360 box that was already working. Red button stopped working (national issue) now my second box isn’t working and internet going down as well. What is going on!!! Fuming here

  • Cakes6G
    Cakes6G | Art on Objkt (@Cakes6G) reported

    @CheekyVic @virginmedia That's why I left years ago, awful customer service, awful products.

  • mvkennelly
    Mike Kennelly (@mvkennelly) reported

    Virgin media broadband in London N21 has been intermittently down now for weeks and nobody at Virgin interested in fixing the issue . Hours on the phone being told to turn it off and on ! We are out at the end of this contract for sure, very poor service.
