    @virginmedia Waiting on an engineer now, none available until Saturday pm. That will be over 3 days without any service.

  • wightpie Wightpie (@wightpie) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia Also given that link is for postal marketing how exactly does that help with phone calls? As it stands your systems are non-compliant

  • lamsom Dave Gracey (@lamsom) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia Your mobile network is crap & your customer service is just as bad.

  • markdean5413 mark dean (@markdean5413) reported from Bury, England

  • bazza_bee78 🚩Bazza B 🏴 (@bazza_bee78) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia No mention of any temporary resolutions or any form of compensation for the loss of service

  • lamsom Dave Gracey (@lamsom) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia There’s absolutely nothing wrong with the phone, I can travel to different areas and get 4 bars on my phone and it works no problem, the problem is in the area I live.The reception always used to be fine but for quite some time now it’s been awful, I currently have one bar.

  • Sam_yates4 Sam Yates (@Sam_yates4) reported from Old Laund Booth, England

    @neilayates @virginmedia I believe they were the "3rd Party" that also caused the Microsoft 365 outage which killed our session yesterday!

  • GeoffEvansTutor Geoffrey Evans (@GeoffEvansTutor) reported from Bury, England

    Broadband DOWN two days last week then on for a day then OFF Today @virginmedia working from home on Monday in BL9- not good enough for what we pay!!!! #nothappy

  • Shigufta1 Shigufta khan (@Shigufta1) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia Problems with my TV very frustrating not being able to speak to anyone. For a communication provider the service being offered is not acceptable

  • ianlumsden Ian Lumsden (@ianlumsden) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia I have been trying to get through to customer service for the past two days, the call is usually immediately rejected or I am told the call waiting time is an hour. I have had enough and as soon as I get through I am cancelling my account. 😡

  • wightpie Wightpie (@wightpie) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia So why then a) does it specify postal and b) not provide a field for mobile number. At best it’s misleading and at worst incompetent

  • Dazmac1882 Daz Mckavett (@Dazmac1882) reported from Burnley, England

    You've out done yourselves today @virginmedia It's usually poor but your broadband today has been on a completely different level of poor

  • eccygem Gem (@eccygem) reported from Bury, England

    @virginmedia is there an issue in Radcliffe??? WiFi is down and it keeps saying incorrect password 😩

  • els_photographs Emma L Strawbridge 📷🍓🎮🏳️‍🌈 (@els_photographs) reported from Bury, England

    @virginmedia the connection issues better be sorted by tomorrow morning, some of us need to work

  • WainwrightDean Dean Wainwright (@WainwrightDean) reported from Accrington, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for fixing it this morning, I trust given I’d no service for circa 36hrs I’ll see a credit upon my next bill?

  • Dazmac1882 Daz Mckavett (@Dazmac1882) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia Came back on early hours this morning but it's been awful for a while, same as the rest of my family I'll be leaving without a cancellation fee tomorrow

  • MATTYB00SH 𝕄𝔸𝕋𝕋𝕐𝔹𝕆𝕆𝕊ℍ (@MATTYB00SH) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia Yes it works on my phone browser, but not on laptop, so I'll just continue using that method, thanks. One more question; Why do your customer support agents ask for a security password that I use when speaking to an agent, despite being a new customer and haven't set this up yet

  • Dazmac1882 Daz Mckavett (@Dazmac1882) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia because you are providing a service that doesn't work, i presume i can leave without a fee

  • clairemenlove Claire Menlove (@clairemenlove) reported

    @virginmedia Really doesn’t seem much point in doing that unless your status page shows it’s fixed. This is an utter **** show and I won’t get refunded until I’m off line for 2 days? Really?

  • Geo_Toni85 Geo💀Toni🐀 (@Geo_Toni85) reported

    Virgin Media has definitely been pissin me off lately. there's an issue on our account & after calling for the 3rd month in a row they're now looking into it. Yeah there is an issue alright, of being overcharged each month since changing package in Dec! Eugh!

  • Shropshire_Dad The Wonky Doodler 💚♿ (@Shropshire_Dad) reported

    @virginmedia I have been miss-sold a WiFi booster & I'm now being charged an EXTRA £8p/m. Called THREE times and rather than fix the issues, you keep trying to sell me more bundles. THREE I've been promised a refund THREE times its not happened. Looks like I'll be going to OffCom

  • clairemenlove Claire Menlove (@clairemenlove) reported

    @virginmedia Still not working and it said it would be fixed at 4.25. No more updates? Pls advise.

  • Mandyoxo2 Mandyoxo (@Mandyoxo2) reported

    @virginmedia I have been on what's app with you and silly virtual assistant chat for 2 days now. Nobody live never appears. I am wanting to cancel account. I am cancelling my dd. Please do not charge me anymore, I do not require this service anymore but cannot get in contact.

  • revdgarry Revd Garry Roberts (@revdgarry) reported

    Hi @virginmedia having just informed us on price increase you quite rightly say we can cancel our contact with you. But.......how on earth do we do that when you won't answer the phone? Third time of trying and an hour on hold each time.

  • MiaWard41589749 Mia Ward (@MiaWard41589749) reported

    @virginmedia Are you unable to answer this question? Is anyone there actually aware of how to correctly deal with a complaint? ....Or is everyone's attitude, "Oh well, just another dissatisfied customer?"'

  • KentMarkMasons Kent Mark Masons & Royal Ark Mariners (@KentMarkMasons) reported

    Please don't put the words "Virgin Media" and "customer service" in the same sentence, ever again. They are awful.

  • vernalscott Vernal Scott (@vernalscott) reported

    @Villamad_4 @virginmedia I'll be keeping Prime and may resubscribe to Netflix. Otherise, You Tube will do it for me. Plus, I need to move around a bit more, so less TV should help.

  • Trev_Ange Miss Handsome Pants (@Trev_Ange) reported

    Virgin Media showing how shoit they are again. Slow connection or loss of connection on work devices or when using streaming apps. Advice: using lots of devices can affect connection speed. Me: I've already explained I'm home alone, just back from holiday and only using netflix
