    @virginmedia Hi, we are having issues connecting to the wifi throughout the house. The room the hub is in is good but the rest of the house is very poor, we have our children complaining that their games consoles won’t connect or buffering and glitching and it’s costing us a fortune.

    @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

    Stuart Windle (@stuwin1) reported from Stenson Fields, England

    @virginmedia When I phoned the contact centre they said they knew there was an issue and it would be sorted in 24hrs. A quick google shows this isnt just me its a common trend

    New tactics from Virgin Media, ring up to cancel, they say they can't find your account and then put the phone down. 🖕🖕

    Lee Smith (@lee0510) reported from Ilkeston, England

    @virginmedia please tell me how to speak to someone in your organisation! I can’t get through on line as it doesn’t recognise me even though you bill me and your phone system won’t allow me to speak to anyone. Customer service is diabolical.

  • lee0510
    Lee Smith (@lee0510) reported from Ilkeston, England

    @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 Everyone is very apologetic but that doesn’t help give a vulnerable old lady the peace of mind that her son is available at the other end of the phone, should something happen.

    Let down by both @TravelodgeUK and @virginmedia in one weekend. I must be a lucky guy :/

    @virginmedia terrible customer service, my box is overheating, has done for around 2 days, we have to switch the box of for 5-6 hours then it comes back on, according to customer services nothing can be done until it happens again, then they will look at it. What a shambles

    @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

  • 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.

  • 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've clicked the link, logged in, and apparently there's no network issue... So how do you explain the issues I've had throughout today?

    @botbusta999 @virginmedia @EE when you join EE for their "internet", you'll be complaining you're being scammed, fact is aside from Virgin, noone can come close to the speeds they provide. Dont get me wrong, im not praising Virgin, their customer service is AIDS

    @BBCNews I hate it Being stuck in the contract with Virgin media. Their call centres were terrible well depending which country you got. One member of staff refused to log me in because at the start I said I'm dyslexic and he said well if you fail the security questions we can't help you

  • WimpingEgo
    WimpingEgo (@WimpingEgo) reported

    @EE At what stage of the order would I get a set up/ connection date please. @virginmedia have let me down far to many times so looking to switch to a new ISP

  • daithigor
    Daithi (@daithigor) reported

    I used to be able to cancel Virgin Media over email. I have the emails to prove it. The last time I tried to cancel over email I was told they "changed the system" and had to ring to cancel.

  • ElJaffoGuzman
    ElJaffoGuzman (@ElJaffoGuzman) reported

    Been with @virginmedia for 7 years now. The best "deal" they can offer me is 500mbs down (boosted to 1gb because of my cell plan) for £51 a month. Or I can swap to youfiber, £30 a month for 2gb up/down 🥴 @virginmedia you aren't the best choice no more. customer retention sucks.

  • kerbear_t
    Kerrin McIntosh 💙 (@kerbear_t) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve had no WiFi since yesterday and it tells me a fix likely by Monday. How do I run a business like this? Plus it costs me more using mobile data to try send emails. Poor service! And with the news this week one would think you’d be trying to keep customers happy!!

  • salemsdaughters
    Kingofsalemsdaughter (@salemsdaughters) reported

    BBCs report on Virgin Media is 100% accurate. When I informed them that i had moved house to an area they did not cover they pushed me to stay until my contract ended. I had also had several technical difficulties to which they delayed any actions to fix the tech issues; what was the issue? i was unable to change my email. I call their customer service dep and neither of them were able to help me. This happened on several occasions Where i had to wait WEEKS for very easy to solve problems. @virginmedia

    Dermot O'Leary (@dollDCFC) reported

    @virginmedia @siemaiqbal The only tweets we ever see here about Virgin are those complaining when their service has been interrupted, which is understandable.I wonder though what % of Virgin customers it represents? From personal experience my service has been out a very few times over 20+ years.
