  • F_O_I_D Alison Mitchell (@F_O_I_D) reported from Luton, England

    Virgin media is down for maintenance. No WiFi and no tv. Guess I’ll have a mix.

  • groom_donna Donna Groom (@groom_donna) reported from St Albans, England

    @virginmedia shit service, spent 25 mins getting through to sort out my non existent broadband and was told they would charge me to get my devices right then hung up when I said I would not pay for a service I am already paying over £80 pm for.

  • _M155Y_ Kate Welling 🔶️🔶️🔶️ (@_M155Y_) reported from St Albans, England

    @anemoneproject @HertsFRSControl Virgin Media still appears to be down.

  • goitsagch Nick Daniels (@goitsagch) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia I need to move a mobile number from an old 3G Virgin SIM to a new 4G one I got as part of my Oomph package, but I don't remember my 'telephone password' so the text chat people couldn't help, so I need to reset that somehow I think.

  • lewishamprodigy lewishamiltonprodigy (@lewishamprodigy) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia i spoke to one of your representatives on tuesday and they put the phone down on me as i was trying to upgrade my services as i was getting on 3 mb download speed and oaying for 50. so i made an official complaint still not heard back anything. upgraded my line

  • alisdairrmsmith Alisdair Smith (@alisdairrmsmith) reported from Berkhamsted, England

    @adampowley @VirginMediaCorp They don't have any provision for anything that might be described as customer service let alone anything that would allow their customers to communicate with them #VirginMedia

  • munirawilson Munira Wilson MP (@munirawilson) reported from London Colney, England

    I'm aware that many residents in #Hampton, #Whitton #Teddington who are Virgin Media customers may not have lost phone, broadband & TV service. I've been in touch with Virgin who say it's due to a third party cutting through a cable and they are working to resolve the issue.

  • midnightmaggie Sophie Lonergan (@midnightmaggie) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia 1.5 hours and counting on the phone to virgin to try and sort out the wifi. Worst service ever, been with them for 3 months and had the slowest speed we have ever had! Don’t use them, bunch of cowboys! 😡

  • Jacquiharding14 Jacqui harding (@Jacquiharding14) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia She also doesnt do twitter. What she needs is a manager to listen and just sort the problem. Its simple to sort so they just need to. The phobe number they gave her used all her allowance and cut her off midcall today and she is with virgin mobile

  • joybrenda Brenda Franco (@joybrenda) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia Hi can u help, I am a customer. Am I able to stop constant phone calls, re up grading my package. Thank you.

  • lewishamprodigy lewishamiltonprodigy (@lewishamprodigy) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia im really upset this is not the service im paying for and i wish to make another complaint about why an engineer would lie about coming to a visit when they ever showed up whatsoever

  • bobster76 Robert Beahan ❄️☃️🎅🌲 (@bobster76) reported from Hertfordshire, England

    @virginmedia Yes. No known issues. This has been going on for a week now.

  • jamanifin Toby Weston (@jamanifin) reported from St Albans, England

    @virginmedia I wouldn’t look forward to my response, it won’t be complimentary. You consistently give poor performance over wired connections and your customer service peps seem to neither care nor be in a position to do anything. I pay £46 per month for the privilege!

  • RHerbert95 Rory Herbert (@RHerbert95) reported from Dunstable, England

    @virginmedia It's for the broadband, we've had issues for the past few days and speeds of <1mbps, the automated hotline said there were intermitent issues and we didn't have a chance to talk to anyone because the hold was too long

  • scotinhitchin CMcC (@scotinhitchin) reported from Hitchin, England

    @virginmedia Your messaging service is a bit of a joke isn’t it. Round and round in circles repeating myself as you never have a full conversation with the same person #badcustomerservice

  • NormskinutsMark Mark (@NormskinutsMark) reported from Hitchin, England

    @virginmedia existing customer with you for quite a few years paying £139. Same deal Black Friday being offered only £79 wtf. You are shafting loyal customers

  • alisdairrmsmith Alisdair Smith (@alisdairrmsmith) reported from Berkhamsted, England

    @SkyHelpTeam that's on the Sky Sports App as a @virginmedia customer but they don't provide customer services obvs

  • Darryl1712 Darryl Robertson (@Darryl1712) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia Yeah all channels, checked service status already and its showing all is ok

  • warrenbeckwith Warren Beckwith (@warrenbeckwith) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia This is more to the fact that your teams were ill advised about the products I have which then cut off our service, the time it takes to sort issues. With 3 V6 3 HD the big package not be classed as VIP when clients with basic receive that privilege is a joke! #compensation

  • MrsMummypennyUK Lynn Beattie (@MrsMummypennyUK) reported from Knebworth, England

    @virginmedia No an engineer came to my house. He could not fix it. Rebooting will not help. Please read my original tweet.

  • MB01428372 MB (@MB01428372) reported

  • jordanlennox686 Jordan Lennox (@jordanlennox686) reported

    @virginmedia Quick question, when I was on the phone I asked the woman for her name and i.d number to note it down to who I have spoke to but I was told there not aloud to give out there name or any i.d?

  • MrsMummypennyUK Lynn Beattie (@MrsMummypennyUK) reported

    @virginmedia I need urgent chat help. My upload speed is the worst. It's taken 8 hours to upload 70% of a 30 min video to YouTube. You sent an engineer to my house last week, and he did everything he could, except my upload speed is still the worst. This is not worth £27 a month.

  • Shoppinguk2 Shopping uk (@Shoppinguk2) reported

    @virginmedia You are not even making sense to what I tweeted - Can I have a human in a UK call centre to talk to please major problem, thank you

  • red27ferrari David Kearvell (@red27ferrari) reported

    @virginmedia you have quite possibly the worst customer services known to man. I’m on day 4 of trying to sort my issues with you and today have been on hold for over 6 hours!!

  • jordanlennox686 Jordan Lennox (@jordanlennox686) reported

    @5antiagro @virginmedia That's what I'm saying but there saying if a want to cancel it's £388

  • harperjch J (@harperjch) reported

    @virginmedia Okay - but the issue I have raised is speaking to 4 different people and wasting 90 minutes of my evening trying to sort that. I don’t have much faith calling again will resolve my issue
