  • JohnMurphy9172
    murf (@JohnMurphy9172) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Just managed to get hold of someone, and apparently after over 10 years of no problems I now need WiFi boosters at an extra cost to myself all of a sudden, they couldn't tell me why just trying to squeeze more money out of me

  • 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.

  • BeanBolt
    BeanBolt (@BeanBolt) reported from Southport, England

    @virginmedia It says no issue in the area, then when I click "still having issues" the local scan shows intermittent outages in the area, been like this for 24hrs+

  • Robertlfc_
    Rob (@Robertlfc_) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia just been took out of a game of fifa, that I was winning! Because of your awful internet. Get it fixed!!

  • Gary_Kilroy
    Gary Kilroy (@Gary_Kilroy) reported from Liverpool, England

    Having the choice of the awful customer service of @virginmedia or the @bt_uk network which in my area might as well be two tin cans tied together with string is great!

  • Billzy79
    Billzy (@Billzy79) reported from Liverpool, England

    @Jacedafaceis @virginmedia Yes. Been out to lake district, and 4G mobile phone signal was quick and more reliable than the broadband. And people thought it was normal.

    @MrCallum011 @virginmedia @peterkay_co_uk Ditto . Been down more than a ****** knickers lately

  • NatashaVic
    Capitã Nat (@NatashaVic) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Can I speak to a human, please? It’s impossible to speak to anyone here. I paid for my bill via bank transfer more than a week ago and it hasn’t been registered. Phone service is not recognising my password and I can’t find a live chat.

    @virginmedia I have called customer services only to be subjected to patronising responses and smart remarks! Where is the care and customer service???

    AnneMarie Silbiger Poet (@happimess73) reported

    @Donna__McLean @virginmedia I realise with everyone at home, it's slow but we're not going to receive a discount, are we?

  • mittermayr
    Roman Mittermayr (@mittermayr) reported

    @virginmedia I know all of you here are just trying to do your jobs and I honestly truly hope you will eventually find something nicer than this mess of a company, but at this point, it just needs to be documented. The process-optimisers have created a support disaster. #virginmedia

  • MickyB60443382
    MickyB (@MickyB60443382) reported

    @virginmedia My dad has tried this also. The internet signal always drops and still no one from your company has called about the engineer that was meant to come out to upgrade his boxes. Very disappointing

  • TwitchAsYouWere
    StarShopping Warzone (@TwitchAsYouWere) reported

    @virginmedia i’ve troubleshooted via your website but it says there are no problems. I believe the problem is my jitter, causing online gaming to lag. My jitter is usually anywhere from 7ms to 50ms which isn’t anywhere near good enough for online gaming.

  • crosss216
    Matt Wells (@crosss216) reported

    @virginmedia I am absolutely disgusted with the customer service and misinformation I have been given over my account in the last to days. I can't believe it and can no wait to be leaving, I hardly you Twitter but it feels appropriate to get this out there after thees phone calls

  • kais3rs0ze
    Andrew Glen (@kais3rs0ze) reported

    @virginmedia Can u give me a link to report problems? I can't see where I do this on the website

  • wariovanmorrion
    Wario (@wariovanmorrion) reported

    @virginmedia The thing is I've spent a lot of time giving a detailed explanation of the issue and the complaint email states they have been unable to contact me. Funny that my mobile phone is a virgin number! Can you not simply reference the complaint and they can actually then phone me

  • zahzah_j
    ZJ (@zahzah_j) reported

    @virginmedia Asked for the lady who im speaking to on the phones name & she’s decided instead of answering & having a complaint put forward about her, she’d place me on hold in hopes i’ll cut off.

    We have been trying for months to get @virginmedia to install new broadband. We need it to serve our community through online services. They have failed us time and again. There is no way to talk to a manager. @virginmedia help us do our job please
