    @virginmedia trying to contact you and all I keep getting is a stupid repetitive bot

  • allanwebb69 Allan Webb (@allanwebb69) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia good to see you have added #DMAX at least just when going to cancel subscription due to lack of channels

  • LordBeerHunter LordBeerHunter 🇪🇺 (@LordBeerHunter) reported from Stafford, England

    Really getting sick of @virginmedia's shocking service. Yet more dropouts. No doubt this will inspire them to post the usual useless scripted bs response.

  • iMeyrick Meyrick (@iMeyrick) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Me to the controller after reconnecting to @vatsim for the 5th time in one flight due to the virgin media outage.

  • AlenaCopeland_1 Alena (@AlenaCopeland_1) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @Turnerandhooch @virginmedia Shocking service they are

  • LordBeerHunter LordBeerHunter 🇪🇺 (@LordBeerHunter) reported from Stafford, England

    Here we go again @virginmedia, no WiFi randomly again! Although hardly ransom, it's a regular occurance. About time to stopped charging until you can provide a 24/7 service.

  • EmzeeJaye Emily-jaye collins. (@EmzeeJaye) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia all of yesterday and still today I have no internet. It's been switched off, reset etc. Last month I went nearly a week without service. This needs resolving or I'm leaving.

  • serenium Serenium (@serenium) reported from Stafford, England

    @williamtm @virginmedia So virgin media don’t support it then. that is not “nothing supports it” Yell at virgin. BT is fine, although they do need to differentiate their treatment of ipv4 vs ipv6 icmp in their default firewall rules

  • serenium Serenium (@serenium) reported from Stafford, England

    @williamtm @virginmedia 1&1, bt, EE, sky, zen and talk talk all support v6 afaik. The ONLY major (by number of subscribers) ISP that doesn’t is virgin. The smallest of the big 4 is talk talk and numbers 5-10 of the top 10 added together are still half the size of talk talk.

  • PPowellfamily Denise Powell (@PPowellfamily) reported from Barlaston, England

    @virginmedia 2 houses in the same street no Internet or broadband. Your call centre claims the fault to be in my home. #3rd class service

  • moorland2 Moorland (@moorland2) reported from Endon, England

    If @virginmedia try and flog you 1 of these let me know, I’ve had them for 2 yrs and they have been nothing but crap from the get go

  • EmzeeJaye Emily-jaye collins. (@EmzeeJaye) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia I've already checked and there is no reported issues in my area.

  • BarryWi32733397 Barry Williams (@BarryWi32733397) reported from Hixon, England

    @staffsbrewery @unicom @openreach I walked away from BT Infinity in my Hixon village as soon as Virgin Media was available the Service from BT was not good to say the least and i safe money with VM compared to my monthly charges from BT and Sky

  • ChanEk81 Chan Ekanayake (@ChanEk81) reported from Stafford, England

    @TrekinTech @virginmedia I gave up with Virgin media router after so many of these. It’s is single handedly the worst WiFi router man (or woman or it) has ever invented. But it’s a pretty ok modem TBF..

  • FowldsSimon Santa Sime 🎅🏻🎄 (@FowldsSimon) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia why was I not informed of changes to my package. I’ve got the full house package which included kids tv. Name changed to maxit and now no kids Tv. Thank god we have amazon and Netflix which has kids stuff on. Don’t watch either on Virgin as it’s so slow.

  • EmzeeJaye Emily-jaye collins. (@EmzeeJaye) reported from Stafford, England

    Virgin media really need to pull their finger out. Don't boast a service that you simply cannot provide. What a bloody joke. #virginmedia #failmedia

  • imandywelsh Andy Welsh 🍕 (@imandywelsh) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Don't worry you're rep is long gone! It was just the worst timing to rock up & block our extremely tight side road 👌🏻

  • hammerbiker666 Dave Hammer 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🇬🇧 (@hammerbiker666) reported

    @virginmedia Nope all okay on that - before we were cut off she said they won’t send an engineer out so I just don’t know what to do except cancel the whole subscription as not getting the service I pay for…..

  • hollowlegs hollowlegs (@hollowlegs) reported

    @virginmedia Nothing at all happens. Still no signal or data. Same handset 😫

  • Ellyn106 Ellyn Somerville (@Ellyn106) reported

    @AdamHDGamer82 @virginmedia My parents moved to sky due to the atrocious customer service of virgin media and even giving 30 days notice they gave still taken over £200

  • GGTVBD Gareth (@GGTVBD) reported

    @Ofcom Thank you. Looks like I’ll be filling in that form and making a complaint against @virginmedia - as always, completely ignored. Statutory compensation not paid. Disgraceful.

  • JonnyLindsay Jonny Lindsay (@JonnyLindsay) reported

    @virginmedia Well it all started when I called you weeks ago and your telephone team dropped the phone on me three times. Since then I had a web chat and you said you would raise a complaint. But it never appeared. So a couple of days ago I raised one.

  • Utd1A A 🇾🇪 (@Utd1A) reported

    This is no lie the 5th time I’ve agreed something with @virginmedia and I’m still being chased on something I have been told five times, I don’t need to pay. How can the customer service be this shambolic

  • GingesLife Ginges Life (@GingesLife) reported

    @virginmedia Ok this is no longer an internal networking issue, when it happens I cant connect to the router via ethernet or your app to reboot it. Hub light now showing as light orange not white. Do you have the support phone number thanks?

  • Alhambre Alex Hammond (@Alhambre) reported

    Hi @virginmedia - just FYI I can’t seem to get hold of anyone to explain that my bank says the problem is at your end, and that’s why the payment won’t go through. Also, I’ll not be paying you that late fee :)

  • louise_r74 Louise Reynolds (@louise_r74) reported

    @virginmedia please make it possible to reach customer support - I have no Internet the past 48 hours and cannot reach anybody to help. I need Internet for work please help ASAP!

  • GGTVBD Gareth (@GGTVBD) reported

    @virginmedia A web chat wasn’t convenient at that time. And considering you’re a telecoms company, only giving that option to a customer is not only appalling, it’s more than a little ironic. Thank goodness I’m out of contract soon.
