    @virginmedia We have liftoff! Just spoke with a member of your team on the phone. Her name was Francis. She was fantastic! Sorted the problem out and applied a credit to my account. Buy her a drink now 🍷

  • 848Jake
    Jake Kirby (@848Jake) reported from Toddington, England

    @virginmedia The issue has been random and, with typical timing, I can’t find it right now so I guess you can’t help.

  • PaulswainDJ
    Paul Swain (@PaulswainDJ) reported from Kings Langley, England

    @virginmedia An ongoing account issue. All I’m trying to do is sort it out. Your staff accepted my call today and then hung up after 17 minutes of hold time.

  • Pensar_Mark
    Mark Williams (@Pensar_Mark) reported from Berkhamsted, England

    @virginmedia Already done that 4 times and got nowhere. I need someone who can help to actually call back as promised.

  • CazDigital1
    Caz Digital (@CazDigital1) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia I’ve already done that. It says no known issues.

  • SteveDunn09
    Steve Dunn (@SteveDunn09) reported from Harpenden, England

    @virginmedia Yeah... he he... when the broad band decides to work that might help.. when you get 'not connected' via ethernet and wifi the tests are a bit meaningless

  • lutonmagoo
    Big E (@lutonmagoo) reported from Caddington, England

    @virginmedia I will call this number at some point today when it’s appropriate but no it’s still not working and when I put in my area code still says sorry we cannot tell you what’s going on?

  • sjdhatters

    @NUFCdesperado @vmbusiness Ha ha. Some stuff doesn't need writing down. Like the ******* phone number they rang me on!

  • LegitBoss69

    @virginmedia I WILL be going to trading standards. Enough Is enough and your team lie and never Wana resolve or help us resolve the issues Inc fact they break their own agreements with the customers!!! @TradeStandards

  • PcPresenter
    PCPresenter (@PcPresenter) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia Any chance you can DM me about an issue? Trying to find an avenue to contact you through the website is shockingly ****. What's the point of having an option to contact when it's impossible to find it??

  • 848Jake
    Jake Kirby (@848Jake) reported from Toddington, England

    @virginmedia Not sure@of the model name - barcode on the back has two numbers C8 1862094XCCFRVD and M: 24374C4F1E0F - does that help you ?

    Anyone else in Hemel Hempstead having issues with sodding #Virginmedia internet? As in its beyond crap? Mine has gone down again and I now cannot work! Fuming 😡😡 And they tell me 3 days to get someone out!

  • Claydon8Tim
    tim (@Claydon8Tim) reported from Hitchin, England

    @virginmedia Sorry. That’s it. Sorry. Yes I’ve checked and the WiFi is now working. I also checked and I’ll still be billed the full amount for a 2nd rate service that doesn’t in anyway match your glitzy empty advertising campaigns.

  • TotallyFD
    Adam (@TotallyFD) reported from Kings Langley, England

    @virginmedia Hi, how can I get support for my mobile phone? I’m a new customer and am having issues making and receiving calls. There is no help on the app for what I need. Thanks

  • Dan_lutonbear
    dan@randrhotrodimports (@Dan_lutonbear) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia 1st issue not being able to change address from 1 property to my new address (new build). 2nd issue trying to speak to someone to cancel our account.

  • PaulswainDJ
    Paul Swain (@PaulswainDJ) reported from Kings Langley, England

    @virginmedia I’ve given up for tonight. I’m struggling to deal with a company that has lied on record and taken money wrongfully out of my account. @MartinSLewis help!

  • Pensar_Mark
    Mark Williams (@Pensar_Mark) reported from Berkhamsted, England

    @virginmedia Still no reply from @virginmedia over 8 hours after they promised they would call. Was told I would be called back at 12:00. It’s now 20:15. They seem to be oblivious to the very notion of customer service. #completefail

  • lutonmagoo
    Big E (@lutonmagoo) reported from Caddington, England

    @virginmedia I will I don’t know what the problem is it’s nothing we are doing we have reset & unplugged it rebooted it switched off switched it on and everything we can think of just won’t work since about 5 o’clock yesterday

  • LisaKathryn5
    Lisa Kathryn (@LisaKathryn5) reported from St Albans, England

    @virginmedia is on demand down for the night? Several reboots, called 150 , robot voice ran the so called check and said all was ok. V217 code brings up ‘contact us’ error on the ‘brilliant’ new app. Please advise

  • hw_renewe
    Harold Wicks (@hw_renewe) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia “Have you checked for any issues in your area” No I have not checked that link. It is intermittent; one minute it is useable and next the internet service is missing; it is regular occurrence, happens almost daily!?

  • ToddCoxeter
    d f (@ToddCoxeter) reported

    @Shiv_who_burns @virginmedia Rude, no? I swear that, for Virgin, mumbling in accents in a noisy call centre is a deliberate tactic. Anyhow. I switched to basically a business broadband. It's both a bit dear, and cheaper than those pirates.

  • NataliaKallai
    NataliaWilson92 (@NataliaKallai) reported

    @virginmedia can you tell me why I had one of your employees hang up on me abruptly today after speaking to me like utter rubbish when I confirmed I would be cancelling my contract. Complete and utter obnoxious ignorance.

  • Bowtomephil
    Phil (@Bowtomephil) reported

    @Stsantek @virginmedia The worst of it is that the 28m fine will not be distributed to all those it affected. OFCOM will use it to pay their CEO etc a large bonus.

  • ericthecatmk2
    Chris Mullan (@ericthecatmk2) reported

    @Ofcom I had this problem with Virgin Media 4 years ago and told them the reason I'd never go back to them was because how difficult they'd made it for me to leave them. Months of stress

  • Nic_Nic88
    Nichola (@Nic_Nic88) reported

    @virginmedia been in chat with yourselves for nearly an hour to be disconnected and no resolution

  • BluemoonAmy
    Amy McManus (@BluemoonAmy) reported

    @virginmedia Had no broadband service since Tuesday evening. Service update showed fix yesterday by 16:07, then today at 16:07 and now tomorrow at 16:07. Totally unacceptable. When will this be sorted. M46.

  • mrrjwilson
    Rob Wilson (@mrrjwilson) reported

    @ToddCoxeter @virginmedia I remember trying to cancel my broadband and the guy was just downright rude and obstructive. I vowed never to use them again and ripped out the ugly cable termination box from the front of my house.

  • DanCPhillips
    Dan Phillips (@DanCPhillips) reported

    @Ofcom Virgin media has been awful to deal with for as long as I can remember, it's ridiculous that it has taken this long.

  • DoctorDisco63
    Owen Luckhurst (@DoctorDisco63) reported

    @MartinSLewis @MartinSLewis hearing about Virgin Media today I’m not surprised. They did the same to me around 2020, except they lied to me about my cancellation date. By the time I called to cancel, they said it was too late. So I disconnected everything and didn’t pay them a penny more.

  • iadnan9
    Addy (@iadnan9) reported

    @virginmedia Virgin Media fined £28m over 'deliberately dropping calls' and putting people on hold 'for no reason' Customers trying to cancel or switch were routinely put through the wringer by Virgin's customer service agents, an investigation by the regulator has found.
