    @virginmedia I cannot contact you by phone, your site will not allow me to sign in as my email is not available, clearly it wasn’t deleted from previous account so I can not see internet status or report faults. My Wi-Fi is intermittent, not working as I type reply.

    @virginmedia Except if your me.. I’ve continually been supplied with a poor excuse for broadband.. I was promised a booster for my signal yet weeks later I’ve still not received it.. your not keeping up your side of this contract.. will not renew my contract when this is over!

    @virginmedia @Moz10Paul Why is it that your customers have to tell you it’s not bloody working before you decide to admit an issue not impressed or happy

  • breadf2man
    Fazal Rehman (@breadf2man) reported from Loughborough, England

    @virginmedia Nothing that springs to mine, but ive never known it to constantly drop off, some of the reasons the operators are giving me are silly and I told the lady it was rubbish.. im sorry but I am fed up of ringing every day and getting nowhere. I think i will have to move broadband

  • aaronfarny_b
    B Farn (@aaronfarny_b) reported from Ilkeston, England

    Right @virginmedia is truly the worst internet - So I am looking to change providers as soon as possible - Not worried about TV packages etc as We are good with free view - can anybody recommend a ISP with a good monthly rate and none of the hidden fees etc?

  • Luketh13ttv

    Has anyone else been having issues with @virginmedia today? My Internet has been constantly cutting off #virginmediadown

  • breadf2man
    Fazal Rehman (@breadf2man) reported from Loughborough, England

    Just put another complaint into Virgin Media about the fact that my original complaint from the 22/04/21 has not been dealt with and no details of when it will be if ever. I complained about having to make over 13 phone calls all lasting at least 20 minutes and 2 engineer visits

    @virginmedia I tried - I assume it doesn't work on a mobile!?

  • Ebike_holidays
    National Forest E-Bike Holidays (@Ebike_holidays) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England

    @virginmedia We followed instructions to switch phones to fibre optic. Can dial out but can’t get calls. It’s really upset my mother in law as she is vulnerable and we are her emergency support. Our mobile signal is very poor at home, so she is frightened she can’t contact us.

  • LauraPlumbley
    Laura Plumbley (@LauraPlumbley) reported from Kimberley, England

    @virginmedia my order has been parked since the 14th the customer service team are supposed to be getting in contact? Have tried calling with no answer and then the call was just cut off. I really need to get this sorted

  • iRacing74
    DJ Knight 🇬🇧 (@iRacing74) reported from Sandiacre, England

    With public service cuts, why do we year upon year pay more Council Tax for less service? Virgin Media put their prices, but do not reduce my service - If they did I'd cancel the service. We are legally obliged to pay more for less - go figure 🤷

  • SmileyJMH
    Joanna Hayes (@SmileyJMH) reported from Loughborough, England

    @virginmedia I have WiFi at the moment. . . The problem is intermittent, it doesn't seem to coincide with times of high demand necessarily. It's incredibly frustrating, especially when working remotely from home and losing signal cuts everything off.

  • stagladanddad
    Russell Morrell (@stagladanddad) reported from Annesley, England

    Hey @virginmedia my landline has stopped working again This is the second time I've had this problem now You'd have thought with you putting the prices up your service would be better?

  • GodberKen
    Ken Godber (@GodberKen) reported from Annesley, England

    @virginmedia You couldn't make this incompetence up - had another call, chasing 2 mths costs for a phone not used in over 2 yrs, unable to cancel via website or previous Twitter conversation, and then cuts me off. It's a mthly sim only, if I don't use it don't charge me - simples.

    Looks like someone pulled out the wrong plug at Virgin Media HQ. Even their website is down!

  • breadf2man
    Fazal Rehman (@breadf2man) reported from Loughborough, England

    @virginmedia A lady told me two weeks ago it would be sorted end of the week. I rang again a lady said she would contact manager and ring me back that day. Never happened, I will can take complaint to next level and then the independent complaints ombudsmen. Virgin complaints procedure poor

    @virginmedia Hi Thank you for replying. Yes I do run that check and it does tell me there is a problem, but why have we had so many in the last few weeks. Before that service was fine.

  • WeeMrsF
    Nicky Forrester (@WeeMrsF) reported

    @virginmedia help please! How do we get your call centre to stop calling us every single day (since Feb, that’s not a joke) trying to get us to upgrade our TV & broadband package? We upgraded in Dec and are happy with our service but daily calls are really starting to grate!

  • spamhaus

    @orange 151.217.0.0/16 AS62016 AS198198 AS42987 AS22879 AS199524 AS62016: Virgin Media 🇬🇧 AS198198: Telefonica Global Solutions 🇪🇸 AS42987: Virgin Media 🇬🇧 AS22879: Sirus, Inc 🇺🇸 AS199524: Gcore 🇳🇱 Location is Chicago. However, this case is slightly different. 151.217.0.0/16 is a "bogon", which means the network is not assigned to anyone at this time (and so nobody should be using it). After the first announcement, new (presumably fake) carriers were inserted into the BGP path as a decoy. The general modus operandi suggests that this is the same gang in action

    @virginmedia shocking service tried to raise a complaint took 1 hour over webchat person dealing with it still couldn't grasp it left chat after an hour you don't even have a complaints email utterly pathetic company Ombudsman it is gone on too long

    @virginmedia getting 100mb a second on your gigabyte package and was told there was issues. Was escalated to the complaints team who advised nothing is wrong! Shocking customer service even when it was acknowledged its nowhere near what im paying for

  • andymuza
    CMDR Andy Fireblade Muza (@andymuza) reported

    @virginmedia why is it when a contract ends you remove all previous offers instead of automatically giving the loyal customer the best offer you can do? Also why don't you contact the customer about it instead of just increasing their price by a large amount. What a joke.
