  • Just_Woodbridge Justine (@Just_Woodbridge) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @virginmedia can you please confirm that you ask for debit card details to look in to account problems/problems with broadband?

  • gsolomonphoto Garry Solomon Photography (@gsolomonphoto) reported from Rushden, England

    @virginmedia My broadband fluctuates, but even when I’m getting above 200mbps WiFi , my Ethernet to the back of the house is 5-10mbps. I’ve done all your tests, but read lots of comments that this is due to the virgin hub. Can you find a solution so I can work from home please!

  • WhiteShadowCos George 'guy with the coat' Massingham (@WhiteShadowCos) reported from Wellingborough, England

  • YourRedHead69 K (@YourRedHead69) reported from Corby, England

    Nice one.. weekend, lockdown and WFH and @virginmedia goes down. 🙈😠

  • Super_Sonic2010 Sonia Mathieson (@Super_Sonic2010) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia Thank you. Virgin are aware, message just says issue identified and working on it. Internet is vital for work, so wondering if a fix is in sight

  • WhiteShadowCos George 'guy with the coat' Massingham (@WhiteShadowCos) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @virginmedia I need to lower my broadband speed as im moving and Virgin isnt in the area i'm moving to but my parents need to retain it. I tried calling but call centres are closed and theres no obvious to do it on the app. Any help!

  • Paul_W_Young The JodFather (@Paul_W_Young) reported from Corby, England

    Thankyou @virginmobile for threatening legal action & forcing me to pay £135 for a mobile phone service we thought was cancelled. No calls/data used since March but you insisted. Net result is you’ve lost a loyal @virginmedia customer too. All services cancelled. Good riddance🖕

  • markaugustus99 Mark Augustus (@markaugustus99) reported from Burton Latimer, England

    @virginmedia I have been having broadband issues for over a month. I have been on hold to the call centre for over 45 minutes now trying to get help. Is that normal waiting time?

  • WhiteShadowCos George 'guy with the coat' Massingham (@WhiteShadowCos) reported from Wellingborough, England

    I'll be glad to leave @virginmedia superfast nothing most of the time! 'Reliable' my a**e only thing thats reliable is that it'll go down every 3 weeks... we must be entitled to leave for free surely with how often this has happened.

  • acton68 Sam Wyatt (@acton68) reported from Market Harborough, England

    @virginmedia hi, do you have an email address? Calling doesn’t work, message doesn’t work fast enough (waiting for hours), submit online - done but no confirmation. I have no idea if you’ve received it or not. I just want to complain, cancel and move house.

  • Just_Woodbridge Justine (@Just_Woodbridge) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @virginmedia I keep losing our broadband signal, especially in the evenings 😔have tried resetting etc, but no good. Even have your boosters, but still no good. Help, please!

  • acton68 Sam Wyatt (@acton68) reported from Market Harborough, England

    @virginmedia Update. I have now spoken to a terribly nice gentleman by the name of Ely. I understand from my call that I am sorted and I’m now a happy customer again. Thank you Ely.

  • acton68 Sam Wyatt (@acton68) reported from Market Harborough, England

    @virginmedia please please please can someone please contact me. All I want to do is make a formal complaint on service speeds and leave VIrginmedia. I have had online chats that ended with a link to another chat it and phone numbers that end in a link to a chatbot. So angry

  • cazzlar1985 Cazzlar!! (@cazzlar1985) reported from Burton Latimer, England

    @virginmedia @peterlealfc That link doesn't work!

  • Wee_Linz_ 👸🏻 Queen Wee Linz 👸🏻 (@Wee_Linz_) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia Hi, as a family, all 4 of us are having problems with the mobile network. This has been ongoing for a few weeks and despite assurances that the problem is being fixed, it clearly isn't. This is frustrating and we are not getting the service we're paying for.

  • rickypaige121 Richard Paige (@rickypaige121) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia what the **** is going on in Corby !Your system keeps failing!! Are you going to give us a refund for every day a so called cable uninterrupted system fails ?? Sky is looking much better after the 20th time in 2 years that Virgin has failed !! Not worth recommending

  • RichardPFisher Richard Fisher (@RichardPFisher) reported from Wilby, England

    Yay! @vmbusiness has **** the bed once again, third time in a week. Going to have to put a smart switch on it so I can remote reset the router.

  • gsolomonphoto Garry Solomon Photography (@gsolomonphoto) reported from Rushden, England

    @virginmedia chat service is down, no one to answer technical calls, a website that sends you round and round in circles! Is it at all possible that someone is still working who can solve my broadband issues before I cancel my direct debit?

  • suban_p Suban Kumar (@suban_p) reported

    @virginmedia you’re going downhill now i suspect. Your customer service just terrible now and so is the online application. When i login its a endless loop of a virgin loading sign. As aoon as @CommunityFibre is ready in my area i will be 100% jumping ship.

  • JackBla88668340 Jack Blackmore (@JackBla88668340) reported

    @virginmedia There's problems in my area. Like always when will they be fixed

  • Connornet Connor (@Connornet) reported

    @virginmedia Do you have what’s app support that’s more competent than your live chat support? New customer with no connection and no one knows what they’re doing. I’ll happily cancel the contract if everything takes this much effort!

  • nofksgiven81 The man (@nofksgiven81) reported

    @virginmedia @themotablogger Why do you ask the same question over and over, it makes no difference what fix dates you give, you never meet them and just push them back again and again, and with no repercussions I must add

  • serandaz_khan Serandaz Khan ~ PTI ~ (@serandaz_khan) reported

    @virginmedia Hi I was told that engineer will be here today between 8:00am - 12:00pm but still waiting. Can you plz help? Postcode CF11 6JU

    Hello @virginmedia it seems pretty impossible to contact you regarding support? DNS. i updated a few domains nameservers and A records over a week ago, this change has fully propagated around the entire world, i have tested and checked from multiple locations, it all works.…

  • Vijay_Rajan1 Vijay (@Vijay_Rajan1) reported

    @virginmedia The whole street has no service, which is why my initial question was why your tracker hasn’t updated?

  • llwinder Laura Winder (@llwinder) reported

    @virginmedia you have a lot to answer for! I'm disgusted at your continued bad treatment of us. I'm going to the complaints procedure now. I've had enough! 😡

  • themotablogger Masaeb Ahmad (@themotablogger) reported

    @virginmedia yet again your pathetic wifi goes down! Can’t install crucial security cos ur Wi-Fi has sh&t its pants again and again. Can’t wait to leave you #customerservice

  • PaulD1986 Paul Davidson (@PaulD1986) reported
