  • shaomeeng Shaomeeng (@shaomeeng) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia I made a complaint in Feb 13 to dispute about the undue charges. On Mar 6 and 17, virginMedia claimed to write me a letter and Mar 18 to have emailed me, I’ve received nothin. Now virginMedia is to disconnect me tomorrow for outstanding payment. I requested to cancel just now

  • AngusTeee Angus Teee (@AngusTeee) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Please can you explain why broadband has gone down in the London N1 area and what you are doing to remedy this? I have an urgent deadline to hit and currently have no internet access ...

  • craiginmotion craig crawford (@craiginmotion) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia F*k YOU. No wifi for a week. Waiting for a supervisor to call me back within 24 hours. FOUR DAYS Later and 2 IDIOT technicians ... cancel my service NOW. I’m moving my building Into the 22nd century. Keep playing with copper wires See ya *******

  • peteholbrook Peter Holbrook (he) (@peteholbrook) reported from London, England

  • K_G_Spearpoint Ken Spearpoint💙⚡️❤️😷 (@K_G_Spearpoint) reported from Watford, England

  • Murrony Jenny Haines (@Murrony) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia what a terrible customer service experience

  • jpmcic Jean-Paul Marc (@jpmcic) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia serious issues, getting less than 18Mbps on a 350Mbps package for past 24 hours and connection drop-outs. Impacting my ability to work and very frustrating senior leadership call.

  • BeesWingedEyes Sophie Joanna (@BeesWingedEyes) reported from Watford, England

    @virginmedia Thanks. Yes the account was transferred to my mother - but we didn’t realise we’d lose his email address too. We haven’t been able to let people know he’s died because we don’t know who is still messaging him. I just can’t get anywhere with the complaint system.

  • jpmcic Jean-Paul Marc (@jpmcic) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia No service issues showing via your website but many being reported. Is 3rd party tracking sites. Have fun the test more than 6 times today so unable to report fault.

  • shaomeeng Shaomeeng (@shaomeeng) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia It was about a complaint made formally on Feb 13. Are you asking me to do something like a dog chasing its tail ?

  • jpmcic Jean-Paul Marc (@jpmcic) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia Yes. Am having more connectivity issues now and the lights are flashing and unable to establish a connection.

  • khem21766391 Khemical (@khem21766391) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Yes, it says I have a good internet speed which is incorrect. As I said before, Iv contacted your customer service and one of your agents said that the internet will be down until 23rd March & that there is an outage in the area. Surely it cant take that long to correct a fault

  • khem21766391 Khemical (@khem21766391) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia One of your service providers have just said there is a problem in the area and the internet will be down until the 23rd March... surely this can’t be correct...

  • jpmcic Jean-Paul Marc (@jpmcic) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia It is my wired connection that is at fault. Have literally plugged my laptop in directly to the Virgin Hub box and run various tests and network diagnostics for which I have confirmed the slow speeds.

  • peteholbrook Peter Holbrook (he) (@peteholbrook) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Just dialled1471 The originating number was 01424 850444 does that help?

  • peteholbrook Peter Holbrook (he) (@peteholbrook) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia In relation to a potential weakness in security. I’ve got a retro phone with no caller ID. I have a name, they provided a customer licence number for me to check and to authenticate them as genuine . I have a name and they said they were phoning from Hampshire.

  • Wheeliewitty Lizzie (@Wheeliewitty) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve tried that. They can’t fix until Friday. They MAY be able to fix tomorrow - I’m a disabled person & I rely on my broadband connection & phone.

  • mcbrit2 💙McBrit! Ex-Tory Voter! #FBPE🇬🇧🇮🇪🇪🇺🇺🇦 (@mcbrit2) reported

    Been a @virginmedia customer 20+ years and they just put my price up from £73 to £103/mth! They will reduce that to £85 for a new contract, but new customers get a MUCH better package for less!! Happy to lose me as a customer so I’m off to BT (plus Now TV), at £61/mth. Bye VM!

  • Alison_Doyle Alison Louise Doyle (@Alison_Doyle) reported

    @virginmedia Oh and my appointment has been changed everyday since last Monday without being told and then last night on the phone I was passed around 3 times with everyone basically telling me they can’t help me. Absolute joke.

  • DoolingGemma Gemma Dooling (@DoolingGemma) reported

    @virginmedia Engineer’s been this AM. Absolutely nothing wrong with our hub/cable connection. The problem is at the exchange like I’ve been telling VM for days. Engineer did another house visit yesterday nearby & reported the exchange issue. Network team knew nothing about it!

  • milo__n Milo (@milo__n) reported

    @virginmedia Hi guys, I keep calling but haven't managed to get through to a person for this non-standard problem! Could you please just send me a coupler or whatever kind of cable is needed for the plug instead? Getting very frustrating 😞

  • shorr104 Shorr (@shorr104) reported

    @virginmedia Hi can someone now help me? I was asked to come back to this thread.

  • JJ240123 JJ1234568 (@JJ240123) reported

    @virginmedia service since getting my new phone has been great, better signal than Vodafone, efficient switch over and great deal

  • mas56397110 Massimo (@mas56397110) reported

    @virginmedia Same as usual…. They will send an email to escalate the issue.

  • mcbrit2 💙McBrit! Ex-Tory Voter! #FBPE🇬🇧🇮🇪🇪🇺🇺🇦 (@mcbrit2) reported

    Interestingly @virginmedia threatened loss of my landline number if I terminate, so I’m going to move it first then cancel. Deeply cynical attitude towards customers under present circumstances and with likelihood of wholesale termination of contracts due to #CostOfLiving crisis!

  • Scholsey21 postman (@Scholsey21) reported

    @virginmedia Please tell me which numbers to press once calling them then on the automated line to go to customer services then?
