  • LisaYidetteWHL Lisa 😺🛍⚽️💃💅✌🥦🥕🌽 (@LisaYidetteWHL) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @rookieyoung1 @virginmedia I did indeed Si. I swear I was so stressed. Then I read on this FB group, of loads of others having problems, and paying loads more than I do! Its unbelievably bad 😡

  • LisaYidetteWHL Lisa 😺🛍⚽️💃💅✌🥦🥕🌽 (@LisaYidetteWHL) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @KatherineG90 @virginmedia I am having this exact same problem! Five days now. Have you had any joy? I've cancelled my direct debit now. Maybe now they will call me 😡

  • LisaYidetteWHL Lisa 😺🛍⚽️💃💅✌🥦🥕🌽 (@LisaYidetteWHL) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @Raineyballs @virginmedia I'm going to if they don't get back to me. Shocking customer service 😡

  • Ed_P0d Ed (@Ed_P0d) reported from Luton, England

    @jakepickford @virginmedia I've noticed that recently too (Luton). Put it down to the massive 5g tower the council put in, interfering with my WiFi signal.

  • SMCPT Scott McNicholas (@SMCPT) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia not interested in a customer trying to upgrade them?

  • MikeJoiner1965 Mike (@MikeJoiner1965) reported from Harpenden, England

    @virginmedia Although it’s fixed now you left me in a dangerous situation. I was unable to install new hub straight away. I needed help. Without warning my old hub had been closed by you without the new hub being installed. I rely on wifi for different area’s of illness....

  • CParkus Chris Park (@CParkus) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia No - these are generic tips, these aren’t going to help with more fundamental issues W/ network reliability. Wifi connection is fine. But the internet is unreliable and I’ve reset my router 4 times today. That has nothing to do with connectivity/speed.

  • vinnyaliar VINNY ALIAR (@vinnyaliar) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia paid all this money for Anthony Joshua fight and the picture is terrible. More frozen and black screens than boxing

  • salaura101 Susan Clarke (@salaura101) reported from Harpenden, England

    @virginmedia New Hub 4 arrived during time when Virgin have low staff due to COVID. Keeps dropping out, difficult to work from home and no ability to contact Virgin! ‘Call Failed’ when phoning. Great planning by Operations Mgr. Customer nearly 20 years and want to leave! Fed up!

  • ruby_skudder05 Rubes (@ruby_skudder05) reported from Dunstable, England

    trying to revise for my exams on monday, yet the wifi is down so can’t use the laptop. cheers @virginmedia

  • SMCPT Scott McNicholas (@SMCPT) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    So @virginmedia can’t honour the upgrade offer they’ve made and the subsequent order I have placed. So from trying to upgrade to now cancelling our existing package altogether as a result. Poor customer service

  • janetteleaf1 Janette Leaf (@janetteleaf1) reported from Hertfordshire, England

    Internet down for ages yet again. @virginmedia kept us on hold for over an hour then cut us off at 21:30 and call centre closed. No internet. No service. No use at all.

  • LisaYidetteWHL Lisa 😺🛍⚽️💃💅✌🥦🥕🌽 (@LisaYidetteWHL) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    Thanks to FB,I got an email address for a guy at @virginmedia & after days spent tearing my hair out & lots of rude words emanating from my mouth, he's reduced my bill back down & credited my account with £50👊Good job I am wonder woman.Always me that has to sort this stuff out!

  • LisaYidetteWHL Lisa 😺🛍⚽️💃💅✌🥦🥕🌽 (@LisaYidetteWHL) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginhelp Virgin Media.FOUR DAYS now. They make you hang on forever then offer you a link to your mobile, and when you message on that as instructed, they never come back to you. Absolute disgrace. My bill has gone up by another 20 quid a month. I will NOT be paying £120 for this service!

  • wakeup73 simon blyth (@wakeup73) reported

    @virginmedia all your apps are down again !!! Useless.

  • contactbella Bella (@contactbella) reported

    @virginmedia You won't dispatch a router until this is completed so we're without service. REALLY not a good start @virginmedia

  • danny__harding Danny Harding (@danny__harding) reported

    @virginmedia Followed printed instructions/videos links online and contacted the moving home team to potentially reset my system. Unfortunately I’ve been working so tricky to find a spare hour to make the call to help with setup. I’m home this evening and can take a call?

  • DeejBruce DJ Living the slow life Bruce 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@DeejBruce) reported

    @virginmedia I've done that and it's still cutting out randomly, I think there is an issue in my area that's affecting it.

  • contactbella Bella (@contactbella) reported

    @virginmedia It's not a connection issue, it's a customer service issue. We've been waiting 3 days for someone at virgin to fill out a form. we were told Monday would be the absolute latest we would hear back - and it's still not done. Help!

  • rossamc Ross 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇪🇺 (@rossamc) reported

    I thought @virginmedia had the worst customer service but @JustEatUK are doing their best to beat them 😩🙈

  • georgiapeplow_ georgia (@georgiapeplow_) reported

    @virginmedia I think there may be an issue with the booster that a virgin media engineer fitted as the issues are mainly to do with the devices connected to the booster, even the wired connection from it

  • _TheWhirlwind_ Jimmy.com (@_TheWhirlwind_) reported

    @virginmedia @VirginVoyages Ladies and gentlemen of Virgin, I just want Internet access that I'm paying for. I'm in Kew and my Internet has been intermittent for 2 days. Its down again. There are multiple reports of issues. Any chance you can deal with this and we'll talk about cruises another time?

  • fatedfox Fated Snowfox (@fatedfox) reported

    @vmbusiness Who would I contact about escalations? I think your serviceability department has made a mistake and prematurely denied a client service. I really would appreciate a site visit to confirm that.

  • georgiapeplow_ georgia (@georgiapeplow_) reported

    @virginmedia We have multiple wired connections, the website always says that everything is running smoothly but it never actually is
