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

    @virginmedia for 3 days now I have had no television due to you admin error. Yesterday you managed to connect the broadband but still no TV - worst customer service I have ever experienced and for so much money. Cannot see why I should continue with you

  • shaqlockholmes Lil’Shaq👊🏻 (@shaqlockholmes) reported from Leighton Buzzard, England

    @SkyHelpTeam My broadband was due to be activated by @OpenreachHelp yesterday. The engineer has marked it as a completed job yet I have no active line and have been told to wait up to 5 days for it to be checked. You have 48hrs to fix it or il cancel and go with @virginmedia

  • shaqlockholmes Lil’Shaq👊🏻 (@shaqlockholmes) reported from Leighton Buzzard, England

    @SkyHelpTeam This is a new contract I have taken out with you and it’s not a good start. If it’s not resolved within 48hrs I will cancel and go with Virgin media who don’t use openreach.

  • shaqlockholmes Lil’Shaq👊🏻 (@shaqlockholmes) reported from Leighton Buzzard, England

    @OpenreachHelp They have and have been told an engineer within 5 days. Can you not read? Your engineer has lied and so have you. You have 48hrs to activate my line or I will cancel @SkyUK and use @virginmedia who don’t use your **** engineers or infrastructure

  • iamninapina Nina Davis (@iamninapina) reported from Harpenden, England

    @virginmedia your service is shocking. Constant faults with broadband and no way of speaking to anyone to get it resolved

  • CraigFamilyBlog Hayley Craig (@CraigFamilyBlog) reported from St Albans, England

    I’ve literally had no mobile service all day! @virginmedia sort it out. It’s made me feel anxious all day, as I could go into labour at any point! And no... before you say it, it’s not just my phone. It’s the whole area 😔

  • Maz_1977 Mariam (@Maz_1977) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia the absolute worst WiFi provider

  • nealius Nealsmartie (@nealius) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    Some real rubbish from @virginmedia at the mo..broadband outage bordering 24 hours, I bet they don’t contact me with a compensation offer, I’ll no doubt have to chase it...

  • Kevkenny73 Kevin Fuller (@Kevkenny73) reported from Hitchin, England

    @virginmedia why cannot I speak to anyone ! 5 days ... 4 hours on a chat and a promise of a txt link ! Terrible customer service @sky coming to you !

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

    @virginmedia yet more appealing service from @virginmedia firstly you fail to transfer names@of an account holder and then, when you do, you get it wrong and cut me off. 30 minutes to get a call answered, absolutely disgraceful.

  • Kevkenny73 Kevin Fuller (@Kevkenny73) reported from Hitchin, England

    @virginmedia no one answers your phones, online web chat cut me off after 4 hrs waiting and you don’t reply to my messages on here! What do I need to do to get help from you guys, it’s a joke!!

  • keithg63 Keith Garrell (@keithg63) reported from Hitchin, England

    Come on @virginmedia sort it out. WiFi has been terrible all day had to hotspot for several work Teams calls and now can’t get films in Netflix or Amazon Prime. SG4 area!! Kids not happy now either

  • Nightingale_Lee lee nightingale (@Nightingale_Lee) reported from Northchurch, England

    Does anyone know someone that works at @virginmedia in a position within the broadband team that could help us get an assessment of our private road done for installation of their broadband. We’ve registered on their website and emailed them but not getting anywhere.

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

    @virginmedia can you tell me if there is an Internet connection problem in the Hitchin area please SG52SD. Haven’t had WiFi for 3 hrs now

  • sharkbaitza David Harley (@sharkbaitza) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia pls can you send me the contact number for your help line? The app just gives a covid message but no number.

  • keithg63 Keith Garrell (@keithg63) reported from Hitchin, England

    @virginmedia No and I actually had to turn WiFi off and use my phone service to use Twitter!! Oh and I’m 2m from my modem!!!!

  • rachwiles Rachel Wiles (@rachwiles) reported from Hertfordshire, England

    @virginmedia please can you let me know how to contact you? I pay a stupid amount of money to you each month for all your channels and still can’t watch football on my phone/device - disgraceful

  • simon_lailey Simon Lailey (@simon_lailey) reported from Aylesbury Vale, England

    I forgot how crap @virginmedia are when you have a fault at home. Customer experience is shocking #CX , get treated like dirt. Must move to another provider this time around I think 😡

  • Salientwork Patrick Hughes (@Salientwork) reported from St Albans, England

    @virginmedia No broadband at all. Have tried resetting router but doesn’t help. Green arrows flashing on front of router. When I call get sent to website; when I go to website it says call. Would appreciate your help!

    @BeanToast @skytv @virginmedia Wait till you encounter VM’s customer care ***********.

  • Arsenal80100232 ArsenalArsenalArsenal (@Arsenal80100232) reported

    @virginmedia All I’ve asked for is for you to contact one of your employees, to remind them to call me, as we had arranged. I don’t want to call up again and waste a whole load more of my time starting from the beginning. How can that possibly be your optimal solution?

  • its_not_susan Sue Wilkinson (@its_not_susan) reported

    @virginmedia Already did that earlier today, looks like I'm off to buy a PAYG SIM on a new network to get me through #Nevermind

  • Melfilmfan Mel Jones (@Melfilmfan) reported

    @virginmedia No the same. Can you please send an engineer here tomorrow to fix. The problem is that we need boosters for upstairs! The problem is upstairs. The tv aerial man who came to put our tv in told us we need boosters /ethernet cable upstairs. I explained this days ago to customer ser.

  • philwoodford philwoodford (@philwoodford) reported

    @virginmedia @Xtazee Yes, resolved now, thanks. But as you'll see from comments from others on Twitter, there is an ongoing problem with blueyonder and other legacy email addresses like ntl just suddenly dropping. This involves resetting passwords and sometimes waiting for the service to resume 😟

  • Arsenal80100232 ArsenalArsenalArsenal (@Arsenal80100232) reported

    @virginmedia The person I spoke to Just now didn’t note that anything had been noted down on the system…can I please just give you her name and department and someone can tap her on the shoulder and end this lunacy.

  • PeterDo19421129 Peter Dowsett (@PeterDo19421129) reported

    @virginmedia I do wonder how liberty global,the parent company would see how you treat your customers in the UK

  • lucy_darwin Lucy Darwin (@lucy_darwin) reported

    @virginmedia four weeks of constant calling the Philippines has resulted in 0 action. We are victims of Fraud and it’s impossible to get help. 7 times today…latest call 45 minutes #virginmediafraud #virginmobile #virginmedia

  • Melfilmfan Mel Jones (@Melfilmfan) reported

    @virginmedia I said no in my previous message. I have online work to do with my work and my son's home schooling. There is no chat needed. I just need an engineer sent here as I asked for days ago to fix the problem upstairs. Please arrange an engineer to be sent tomorrow.

  • Mark66987344 Mark (@Mark66987344) reported

    @virginmedia, my broadband is terrible, but i cant get through to your technical department for support, is there any other way to contact you or arrange a call back?

  • GooldSteve Steve Goold (@GooldSteve) reported

    @virginmedia Hi. I went out for a couple of hours, and when I returned it had fixed itself. Experience tells me it won’t be long before I shout for help again. Your service goes from bad to worse.
