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

    @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

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

    @virginmedia GT it would be easier if you could access a telephone and engage with a customer that needs assistance. I have now wasted another 20 mins of my time 😡😡 how do I get a resolution?

  • AlexxAdair
    Alexander Adair 🌙 (@AlexxAdair) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia Literally calling to cancel my package and I can’t get through

  • reid2131
    Craig Reid (@reid2131) reported from Larkhall, Scotland

    @virginmedia First of all, they said it would take 24 hours, then they said it would be working for 8am. Then a fault in the area, then there’s a delay in getting a test signal to the router. I’d just like the full functioning broadband I was sold.

    Algerish Lass 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💚 (@NasceraMahria) reported from Airdrie, Scotland

    @virginmedia honestly your service is shite

  • GiggsyBlantyre
    Alan Lappin (@GiggsyBlantyre) reported from Hamilton, Scotland

    Here @virginmedia - any idea of some suggestions please, on how to contact your complaints/Customer Relations Team about a complaint I’ve submitted? Tried phoning, passed from pillar to post in the sub-continent, and getting nowhere. Two words: NOT GOOD ENOUGH.

    Anyone else having issues with @virginmedia today I can't get online no signal Nada

  • reid2131
    Craig Reid (@reid2131) reported from Larkhall, Scotland

    @virginmedia I had a quick start broadband kit sent out. I fitted it all. No broadband, despite 6 calls to your “help” line. Been told a different fault each call. Can this be looked into?

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

    @virginmedia Yeah, I’ve already done this. I had a guy sent out to take a look and he just left without fixing it. Mind I can’t use most of these support things cause I was never sent my customer number or contract information. This does also make it so I’m unable to cancel my contract @Ofcom

  • Paul_Ford80
    Paul Ford 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺 (@Paul_Ford80) reported from Hamilton, Scotland

    @virginmedia Hi, any issues affecting ML3 0QJ? Had no service on my broadband for about half an hour and its been on and off all day. Thanks.

  • 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.........!

  • TheGodofPod
    TheGodofPod (Movie Daft) (@TheGodofPod) reported from Clydebank, Scotland

    @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.

  • NorthernSaint72
    Paul Wilcox (@NorthernSaint72) reported from Barrhead, Scotland

    @virginmedia your broadband service is woeful. Every single day for months it goes off. Stuck in a contract that does not provide the service we pay for. All we are told there is an issue in our area. You won’t have any customers here soon.

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

    @virginmedia I was promised a reconnected service by yesterday. Didn't happen no form requested 😡😡

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

    @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.

  • PotatoAimZero2
    Respawn Doesn't Respond (@PotatoAimZero2) reported from East Kilbride, Scotland

    @virginmedia Connection keeps cutting every 45 or so minutes. Receiving 0 to no network what so ever at any giving time. "Unstable network". Before you asked yes the router has been reset and tested multiple times. Turned off and on and yet still the same issue.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • G1NG355

    @virginmedia Now we're looking at alternative suppliers as we're absolutely disgusted. Loyal customer for 30plus years.. Thousands upon thousands spent.. For what?

    @virginmedia Any update to when the @virginmedia channels are going to work, I was told earlier today by the Virgin media customer service that it will be guaranteed to up and running by 6 pm this evening- but still No Tv ?????????????????

  • EdnaKrabapple1
    Edna Krabapple 💙 (@EdnaKrabapple1) reported

    Anyone else having issues with 'channels not authorised' on @virginmedia? During the week, we couldn't get BBC1 for that reason but now it's other BBC channels.

  • JShine06
    JoShine06 (@JShine06) reported

    Why can't you speak to an actual human being from @virginmedia ? They were meant to call my mum back weeks ago and they never bothered.

  • AndrewW12290183
    Andy W (@AndrewW12290183) reported

    @virginmedia 9 online applications 2 customer services call. I was assured an engineer would collect my Virgin equipment yesterday. Yep no call and they never turned up. I am beginning to think this is a scam from Virgin to charge me £90. I need to contact Trading Standards

  • RHawkins05
    Richard (@RHawkins05) reported

    @virginmedia it's now getting beyond a joke, 3 days now without TV, and when you call all you get is "our engineers are working on the issue". Not good enough service

  • mrsmosieposie
    M E B 👓 💙 (@mrsmosieposie) reported

    @virginmedia very frustrating trying to claim my Refer a friend reward Several attempts but keeps saying password not valid and account number not valid when I have entered them both correctly. Expires tomorrow! Help please.

  • dollynoocat

    @virginmedia going to message @MartinSLewis to see if he can highlight the standards of service you allegedly provide.

  • cleinofficial

    Today's burning question: what is the worst broadband supplier in the UK, and why is it Virgin Media?

  • dollynoocat
    Dollynoocat (@dollynoocat) reported

    @virginmedia yes did that yesterday when BBC1 wasn't working. The usual 20 minutes to reconnect and today my internet went down for 6 hours. Superb service (not) 34 years a customer and phoning Sky tomorrow !!

    @ArmchairAdml Just give notice or switch to a different provider. I had similar with Virgin media recently and literally had to have my wife try and open a new account at the address before I got a deal comparable to the new customer one.
