  • jaward916 Jonathan Ward (@jaward916) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia Morning! So I checked the app for status and was fine, but on the website it said known issue all services. So I subscribed to the SMS alerts and it was "back" at 22:03. Hopefully it stays that way!

  • RoyKyffin Roy Kyffin (@RoyKyffin) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Hi web page not working when IMEI put in and confirm button selected. Nothing happens.

  • Jonesy2310 Chris Jones (@Jonesy2310) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia It was an issue other people i. The area also on @virginmedia as well. Your initial troubleshooting script to question my connection speaks volumes though

  • Lacie_Adams1 Lacie_Adams (@Lacie_Adams1) reported from West Bromwich, England

    Well done @virginmedia screwed up again.. even on an online chat when it is written down infront of you you end up removing elements of my package I have specifically asked you to keep on 😡 it would be nice to have one good experience with you. How do I log a complaint?

  • Markycot Mark Cottrill (@Markycot) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia for the second day out of the last 60 hours we have no Internet or TV in the B92 area!! You do know the rules are still to work from home if you can don’t you? Atrocious service and reliability!!

  • JohnBroadbent3 JohnB (@JohnBroadbent3) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia another taste of shocking service from VM Internet down costing us big money on the phone for over an hour and then cut us off.

  • tahmehtay Tahmehtay (@tahmehtay) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia seems to supply only just above half of the country, but if you change address to an area they don't supply YOU have to pay £240 exit fee. Do not use them if you can't see into the future and know for sure that you will never move. Insane!

  • RoyKyffin Roy Kyffin (@RoyKyffin) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Hi, why does my 4g signal drop to H when I have or use voice call? Never used to happen when you were tied in with EE. Internet settings are correct. Thanks

  • jaward916 Jonathan Ward (@jaward916) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia Yup, seems your systems have issues so the poor chap's calling me back later!

  • blaster1966 blaster66 (@blaster1966) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia All OK now but didn't have any service for 12 hours

  • RoyKyffin Roy Kyffin (@RoyKyffin) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Nokia 2.3 isn't on the drop-down box

  • JohnBroadbent3 JohnB (@JohnBroadbent3) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia @vmbusiness What's the betting VM blame covid for pathetic support

  • travellingcoral Coral Musgrave 🇪🇺🇬🇧🇳🇴 (@travellingcoral) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @ThatLyndsey @priddy @virginmedia We sent it as advised as a tracked delivery with proof of postage. That's why it's £11. And they're charging £10 admin fee to disconnect our phone line. Absolutely shambolic service. #utilitywarehouse

  • brumadam Adam (@brumadam) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia hi, since we’ve upgraded to 1gb and hub 4 we’ve had problems connecting @Tesla M3 to WiFi. Advised the Plume mesh might fix it and we can receive FOC but been out of stock all year it seems. Any idea when they might be back in stock to try and fix our issues please?

  • Markycot Mark Cottrill (@Markycot) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Internet and TV down yet again and this after a debacle of a mis sold “extra” remote control this weekend, absolute disaster and terrible customer service!

  • tahmehtay Tahmehtay (@tahmehtay) reported from Birmingham, England

    In addition to the cost of a new home that I have to furnish fully top to bottom, @virginmedia is trying to charge me £240 exit fee when THEY don't supply the new address. This is seriously getting me down. I can't even afford necessities.

  • andyjuk Andrew Jones (@andyjuk) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia can I request someone from your UK customer services makes contact with me being as I feel like one of your Indian agents has lied to me and another has accused me of trying it on.

  • davidiharris David Ian Harris (@davidiharris) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia who can I speak to about your shambolic customer service!!!??? 💩

  • king_body_art King Of Ink Land ® (@king_body_art) reported from Birmingham, England

    @shannonkeatingx @virginmedia Guessing you tweeted them after there closing hours. Ring them up make an official complaint this is an error that many fall short off. Plus you have the option of switching. @richardbranson name dragged through mud with these telecoms business

  • jenstait Jens Tait. (@jenstait) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    So yet again another WiFi problem with @virginmedia in #wolverhampton and expected connection fix at 1:03am. Right... so how am I going to work now ?! 😡

  • taieshashasha Taiesha ♒ (@taieshashasha) reported

    @virginmedia I'm so sick of my wifi dropping constantly lately. My job depends on it and I've had to cancel a french lesson too - which I'll still be paying for. All I hear from my dad is that the bill from you keeps going up, but the service just keeps getting worse!

  • Mrseanc Sean (@Mrseanc) reported

    Hi @virginmedia were supposed to have external work done for our installation on the 17th but they didn’t show up. Rescheduled twice but they haven’t turned up for these dates either. We start WFH on Monday with no internet! So we would really appreciate some help sorting this

  • Jammag99 Jamie Maginnis (@Jammag99) reported

    @virginmedia Yes. But the issue happens everywhere in house, beside router, same room, next room, upstairs.

  • InTheShite We Are In The **** (@InTheShite) reported

    @virginmedia Its back up and running now. It tends to go down and have many issues between 7-9pm the majority of the time i have issues. Pressing the WPS button on my router waiting 10 mins and then resetting seemed to work eventually

  • Nice_Georgia_x Georgia x (@Nice_Georgia_x) reported

    @virginmedia My broad band has gone down again, right in the middle of a school class. I joined Virgin for a more reliable service. This is twice in a week.

  • iazc85 Ahmed Z Chughtai (@iazc85) reported

    @virginmedia I have just seen this. A disruption in service has been continuous for past three weeks. Complaint was made over two weeks ago. Promised calls back but never had one!

  • cullenjay01 james cullen (@cullenjay01) reported from Dublin City, Leinster

    @VirginMediaIE I had to call your CallCenter today try and rectify a problem with my billing ( you where overcharging me) And When agent answered the phone he just answered with just hello and nothing else. I had to ask was this Virgin Media so then when we got onto my problem

  • Umair91334593 Umair (@Umair91334593) reported

    @virginmedia I first spoke fault, the staff raised a blank complaint and transferred me to complaint then this very rude and aggressive staff keep blaming me for the problem when I told her your engineer confirmed that the fault is in the main box on the street. She transferred me to account.

  • sonia_newton sonia newton (@sonia_newton) reported

    @virginmedia After being on hold for 40 minutes finally got through to your secondary team. Who told me an engineer was already booked to attend on Monday to fix the tv as there is a fault in the area. Had to then explain again that it was his phone not TV 🤦 after much back and forth

  • Leightonpoole L (@Leightonpoole) reported

    There is no need for how much I hate virgin media’s shite Internet service.
