  • strutcakes
    Chris 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 (@strutcakes) reported from Lambeth, England

    Called Virgin Media to complain about the TV box not working and to get it removed from my package. Somehow ended up singing another 18 month contract with the TV box included but at a reduced price. Not ideal but not horrendous.

    Apologies for the stream interruption last night folks- @virginmedia my ISP is dealing with a large service outage. Hopefully back up tonight!

    @virginmedia Still bad this morning and seems as if no one from your side @virginmedia cares about it at all.. What should I do? Leave you guys..

    DragonFish 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇮🇹 (@discobabe76) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia 4/ I work from home so asked what can I do in the meantime? No help given. I asked to speak to a supervisor. Waited 15 mins to speak to Supervisor ( 45 mins total already spent on phone)..

    @virginmedia Customer services are unexperienced and not read to help also. They keep repeating same things

    @_andy_pandy_ @virginmedia Outrageous 😱 I’d cancel my subscription.

  • Nigelellway
    Nigel Ellway (@Nigelellway) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia I have no broadband or phone, your online checker doesn't work and neither does your helpline. What's going on?

  • imbranzo
    Mamba 〽️🦋 (@imbranzo) reported from Bromley, England

    holy **** @virginmedia fix up mannnn how you disconnecting when I’m in a ranked match on @PlayOverwatch ???

  • ninepine
    Mike Fuller (@ninepine) reported from Banstead, England

    @virginmedia Callback should have happened days ago. Now the person on 150 says that you failed to complete a process. They then tried to miss-sell me an upgrade to my package. Still not fixed but "should be" in a few hours! I doubt it. Abysmal deceptive service.

  • Andrew007Uk
    Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia There is a blockage, that I know - I have had no service since November. I was told it would not be sorted before March 6th. I had been promised 3 call backs from different people in the Exec Department - none have followed up.

  • drummerJ83
    Jay Bourley (@drummerJ83) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia Hi. Have no wifi (green light) and despite rebooting several times have a had no luck. This has happened after following your instruction to reboot for ‘faster speed’. Please advise asap - no issues in the area according to your website.

  • Champion3Claire
    Claire Champion (@Champion3Claire) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia An explanation of the problem and what is being done would be a good start for customer service. Right now that’s sadly lacking. I hope there will be a £ reduction in the bill for the lack of service??

  • macon1375
    Mark Connolly (@macon1375) reported from Crayford, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia can have no rival to the worst customer service out there! Said resolved an issue after held for over an hour only to find it’s not and I now can’t get back in touch. 2nd day work ruined

  • andy_s_battle
    Andrew Battle (@andy_s_battle) reported from East Ham, England

    @virginmedia But cutting people off to enforce this is unethical, besides no previous communication has indicated this and the solution is not convenient with where they want to do this and no suggestion to reposition my hub

  • BobCratchitt
    Andee Byford (@BobCratchitt) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia But your hub has died and as such I cannot access my broadband, use my landline as you moved it from copper to Ethernet and the TV services are impacted as I cannot record, watch the BBC or any streaming service. In short an outage.

  • DJMRT
    DJ MRT (@DJMRT) reported from Sutton, England

    It would appear that despite 3 emails to @virginmedia regarding their lack of service, their rubbish broadband and the fact my TV hasn’t worked since November - they have instead chosen to engage debt collectors for a £141.54 (for ONE MONTH) bill. See you in court then I guess.

  • Avoiceonly2
    A voice only (@Avoiceonly2) reported from Blackheath, England

    @virginmedia @Jaym7t5 My system is down since about 4pm

  • eviemae239
    Ben Rogers (@eviemae239) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia wi-fi down yet again for about the 5th time this week. Constantly going down over last few weeks as well, absolute shambles.

  • JosephS65112253
    Joseph Sweeney (@JosephS65112253) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia I’m going into my 5 week of problems with this crap company they say they will investigate but nothing, no compensation nothing.

  • Champion3Claire
    Claire Champion (@Champion3Claire) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia I think you will have to agree this is an unacceptably long time for the repair as it’s already been going on for days?? “There's a TV issue in xxx. Thanks for your patience while we work to fix things as quick as we can. We hope to fix this by 14 March at 16:00”

    @virginmedia is there a way to renew my service without spending 3 hours on a Web chat and 2 and a half hours on phone calls because the price and content of my product keeps being changed by your various agents?

  • Liamjsimpson97
    Liam Simpson (@Liamjsimpson97) reported

    @virginmedia Just DM’d but don’t bother replying if you have no power to impact anything and are just going to give me a customer service response.

    🌸Anne-Marie🌸 (@Anne_Marie_2) reported

    @SkyNews He’s the equivalent of Virgin Media Customer Services, he’s going to have to be ousted out unceremoniously, lanced like a growth only to be replaced by another globalist traitor

  • junie1954
    June Tobin (@junie1954) reported

    @virginmedia our virgin media account has been locked for over three weeks. We are unable to log in ! We have spent long time on four phone calls. We have been promised calls back and resolution within 3-5working days. We are still waiting. We have been customers for 26 years
