LVWLVS (@lvwlvs) reported from Cheslyn Hay, England@virginmedia That was the first thing I tried but nothing happened. It’s only when I power off at the wall, wait a minute then power on that it changes. Right now it’s working fine but this has been a recurring problem this week.

Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, EnglandMad that I pay £71 a month for 350mbps for @virginmedia Broadband for them to only supply me with 40mbps, internet is barely moving, can’t even load basic web pages on my MacBook or phone. Problems in the Birmingham area?
-
Chris Psaras (@chrispsaras) reported from Dudley, England@virginmedia no broadband since yesterday afternoon, told engineers were on route but still no update. Your offshore call centre is also unhelpful and not able to offer any further information. Please can you help?
-
LVWLVS (@lvwlvs) reported from Cheslyn Hay, England@virginmedia Everything is running fine then my devices can’t connect. It takes me switching the router off at the wall and on again for the connection to reestablish itself. First world problems but it’s a pain when I’m working upstairs and the router is downstairs. And it should just work!
-
TheShannimal🔜#i70 (@TheShannimal_) reported from Kidderminster, England@Cplcash @virginmedia Problem is other providers are so slow at installing fibre cables that most have no choice but to go with VM
-
Trickie Dickie (@NickHickey84) reported from Bradmore, England@virginmedia a customer of yours for years. Had a cpi increase letter to say leave with out penalty. Competitor massively cheaper than you for faster speeds. Only to be told by a colleague I have to pay £110 to leave today?
-
hayley chapman (@haychapperz) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia what is going on B31 5 still without Broadband & TV from 11am and now being told fix is 12pm tomorrow. I have been unable to work all day & now problem is going in to tomorrow. This is unacceptable & I hope refunds for loss of service will be applied to all accounts.

Antony Howlett (@AntonyHowlett) reported from Birmingham, England@ChristineAllado @virginmedia I keep having this problem every week and nothing ever gets done and all you get back is we can't find a fault
-
Satish Danny Paul (@________Danny) reported from West Bromwich, England@virginmedia I received my new 500+mps broadband only to get 6mps on my phone in my room. The Router is Terrible and cannot send the speed to devices via wifi. Not Good for anyone
-
John (@jfrncs_) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia Hi, I have now tried unsuccessfully for 12 hours to use the WhatsApp service as again it goes around in circles if I am not immediately available. The number you helpfully provided hangs up after sending a link… please advise how I talk to someone about my account.

Ronnie Harris (@redron1975) reported from Walsall Wood, England@virginmedia guess what ********* your system is down again. Useless pricks.

freckles n dimples (@xsasix) reported from Woodside, England@virginmedia how do you check the mobile phone signal in your area? I’ve had nine for a few days

🏴Simon Evans🏌️♂️ (@simonevans1973) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia b42 is shocking supposed to have 200meg the #ManUtd Vs #thfc is **** like streaming on a ZXSPECTRUM
-
Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia And this is why, I'll be reporting you to trading standards for fraudulent misselling/misrepresentation and then abdicating ALL responsibility/accountability to resolve. There's no security/DPA issues in you giving me a direct dial number via DM. You just don't want to resolve.
-
Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia Alternatively, if you feel the urge to actually be helpful, you can search my name and location (it's an uncommon name) and ask a complaints manager to contact me. No security issues or breaches, since the notes I've been assured are on file, will be there to check.

jordy (@jordyanslow1) reported from Dudley, England@virginmedia any chance of an update regarding the outage in my local area regarding internet connection? It’s been down 2 days straight!
-
MJP - mastodonapp.uk/@mrmjprice (@mrmjprice) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia Async live chat (WhatsApp) sucks as you let me text you with a problem, let it sit for hours, then close it down if I don’t reply within 5 mins and repeat. I’ll just ignore all the comms.

Reformed Prisoner (@formerprisoner_) reported@virginmedia 2/2 cont… ombudsman. You constantly failed to deliver a service, made constant promises and failed to deliver on them, so you were left with no choice but to agree to the cancellation. You are quite comfortably the worst broadband provider I have ever come across.
-
sarah🌹 (@sarahrsav) reportedImagine being half way through a chat with virgin media about WiFi not working. It then kicks me off cause of intermittent WiFi in the area (issue I’ve had for about 7 months lol) and now I can’t get back on to it. What a waste of 50 mins of my life
-
Sophie Reshamwalla (@Dr_SReshamwalla) reported@virginmedia absolutely appalling customer service. Been a customer for years. I have an ongoing complaint with a complaint reference number but nobody at virgin is replying. I’m trying on here to see if there is a human who can respond. Virgin can you respond??
-
M U (@Shef1212) reported@virginmedia still waiting for an engineer. I now been told I need to wait 12 days for an engineer to fix a damaged cable outside. No one wants to listen.

Akita (@PwnProblems) reportedVirgin Media charge different prices for the Internet packages dependent on your willingness to negotiate. M350 package prices range from £29 to £66 a month. Today they told me they don’t accept blue light discount, which they 100% do. Don’t get angry, hang up, try again.
