    @virginmedia I understand that but in the meantime I'm paying top whack for a sub standard service effecting BB and t.v. with no resolution date, not really good service

  • leemcrae76
    Lee McRae (@leemcrae76) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia Yes I did, just this morning. The system diagnosed a fault and asked me to reset my router. I did and it started working again (as it always does tbh) and has since gone down again. I would like to know how to book an Engineer to call please ASAP! Thanks

  • russsanders2
    russ sanders (@russsanders2) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia at what point do we start seeing reduction on the monthly bill. Paying for a service that is failing for an entire day

  • Unchain_Warrior
    Chiedozie Hez (@Unchain_Warrior) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia our broadband have given us all sorts of problems although your system says all is fine for the past one month. Please help!

  • 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!

    Darren Carson (@Bobby_Dazzler68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia hi, do you have online chat available for problem solving?

  • Bobby_Dazzler68
    Darren Carson (@Bobby_Dazzler68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia Hi, had issues with v low WiFi speeds for 8 weeks also effecting t.v. services. Have reported constantly, awaiting WiFi pod and call from tech team, neither of which have happened, formal complaint submitted

  • Bobby_Dazzler68
    Darren Carson (@Bobby_Dazzler68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia No, basically I upgraded my BB a few months ago and the service actually has got worse. I now struggle to maintain a signal in upstairs rooms and Netflix etc constant drop outs

  • nightingalerb
    james nightingale (@nightingalerb) reported from Irchester, England

    @virginmedia Can’t even open the outages page... (using mobile network)

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

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve done the factory reset and still having issues. Sky boxes need to be reconnected to wifi every day and I’ve checked it all out with Sky and it’s not a Sky problem. It’s a Virgin wifi issue.

  • Bobby_Dazzler68
    Darren Carson (@Bobby_Dazzler68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia Speed tests etc, BB effecting t.v. services, am doing a ethernet test but not sure how that will help.

  • Helenfaerieart
    Helenfaerieart (@Helenfaerieart) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia random phone call from your tech support, issues with my router apparently, but, didn't know my name, address or account number...I guess this is phishing and fake?

  • _edan
    edan (@_edan) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia This is part of my point, you’re not helpful unless I responded you would not have told me about the text service you dumb ****.

  • nosylocaljourno
    Hilary Scott (@nosylocaljourno) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    So unbelievably fed up of @virginmedia broadband that constantly drops out. I pay almost £100 a month for packages that are just useless if the connection goes down. Can't work from home or teach remotely under these conditions.

  • Bdayboom
    Benji (@Bdayboom) reported from Finedon, England

    @channel5_tv not sure if it's a @virginmedia issue or yours but subtitles aren't working on channel 5 as I type this motorway cops

  • lewis14cliona
    Cliona (@lewis14cliona) reported from East Haddon, England

    Really disappointing from @SkyUK. Satellite not working. Need engineer to fix. Not available until 13th August at earliest. Really unsure what the point of paying premium is if service delay is this long??? (> than 14 day maximum). @virginmedia @btsport could you do better?

  • DiscoEquinox
    Equinox Disco (@DiscoEquinox) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia Yes. Want to keep my broadband service only. It amazes me that you can get a response in social media almost instantly but can’t get a response elsewhere for love nor money

  • 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!

  • HayleyWhite36
    Hunnybun's Bracelets (@HayleyWhite36) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia it seems that your cancellation dept call centre is closed due to the virus, I’ve tried to cancel my account & tried to message you online but neither appear to be possible, I’m just going round in circles. I haven’t renewed my contract or take you with me. Help

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

    @virginmedia I have sent text messages to the number you provided on here, and I last spoke to several customer representatives on 26th January, then asked to speak to a manager, was put on hold for 50 minutes, then you cut me off/the line went dead. So, nothing has been resolved.

    @Benleo Virgin Media internet doesnt work at all I have had 5 engineer visits and they keep moving my router to different places around the house there are wires everywhere and one of the engineers even broke my wardrobe while fitting the connection cable

  • GillGRobs
    Gill 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🩵 (@GillGRobs) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Really? They just sent me a new 360 box as they said mine wasn't recording properly yet I had no problems with it, they have ripped me off since I changed the account into my name from my late partners, no difference just a name change ive now been forced into a new contract.

    chris8854.bskysocial (@chris327759) reported

    @virginmedia The outage is in my area (Hampshire) but this has now been going on since 1041am, 4 hours ago!

  • VoWSilla
    VoW Silla (@VoWSilla) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia I phoned virgin due to having extremely slow Internet. They tried to sell me several other packages that would make me "wifi" faster as extra costs but insist I got the best speeds. And before I ended the call we were discussing mobile phone contracts that has nothing to do with my speed and I was honest to say, I can tell you are trying to sell me products that will not improve your service.

  • nightrider20244
    Ian 🇬🇧 (@nightrider20244) reported

    @Benleo @CherryFaves0 @virginmedia They are useless the call centre staff are clueless I was only trying to be able to log into account on line and change bank details with them still never got it done all time I was with them I had to ring up every month to pay bill the only thing they understand is taking money

  • AndrewPittman2
    Andrew Pittman (@AndrewPittman2) reported

    @virginmedia @IanLythgoe4 We’ve been without TV for five days! Despite being told it would be sorted “ within 24 hours” on Saturday, now been told after a 30 minute phone call that no engineer available until next Saturday!! Shockingly bad service Virgin Media.

    @virginmedia @Benleo Of the 12 companies that Which review, you're the second worst.

  • Hamish88205796
    Hamish (@Hamish88205796) reported

    @Benleo Just email @virginmedia cancel for breach of contract effective immediately. Make sure you contact your bank to cancel any DD. Virgin will be on the phone begging you to keep giving them your money. It's the only method known to get customer service from them.

  • LouiseMensch
    Louise Bagshawe (@LouiseMensch) reported

    Wow. Shockingly bad by @virginmedia. Lying to @BenLeo that he needed a new contract in order to get equipment repaired, misselling him the contract with a box that didn’t work (admitted by them) and then telling him he wasn’t allowed to go back to his old contract.

  • KaiMonroe5
    Kai Monroe Ⓥ🌱🌏✌️💙 (@KaiMonroe5) reported

    @virginmedia @Benleo I had VM for about 12 years and couldn`t fault the service. I only left because I got a cheaper provider who are okay. I will be returning to VM once my contract is up though.
