    @vmbusinesshelp @virginmedia @vmbusiness Hi, I think the issue is sorted now. @virginmedia has helped. Shame the call centre is awful though.

  • sbcallen Bruce Allen (@sbcallen) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia after nearly a year of repeatedly dropped internet service finally asked them to turn off their Wi-fi kit so can use my own. Basic connection fails, again, and nothing left for support desk to blame - challenge that if it’s not on the script then no help

  • irfonw Irfon Watkins (@irfonw) reported from Bristol, England

  • shaner1989 Shane Richardson (@shaner1989) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia your support team are useless. 3 hours on calls today. I cannot get my time back that your operatives have wasted by hanging up or disconnecting 3 time.

  • sbcallen Bruce Allen (@sbcallen) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia long wait times 40+ minutes and no fix just another que and a recorded message that will be charged by ‘Virgin Gadget Rescue Team’!. Virgin sets new standards in Customer Service.

  • sbcallen Bruce Allen (@sbcallen) reported from Bristol, England

    Virgin media service - connection goes down with 24 hours & no help from technical services, just reading from a script & no escalation. Giving up after a year of unacceptable service. Lovely and polite on social media, impossible once a customer #virginmedia

  • mattyribbo Matt Ribbins (@mattyribbo) reported from Filton, England

    @virginmedia Wired. The issue isn't with my side of the network. It appears to be on the virgin side based on the router logs.

  • LouRipley Louise Ripley (@LouRipley) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia absolute disgrace. Advise via Twitter to make complaint, logged 2-no response, called lots no joy, promises result in nothing. Absolute shambles. STAY AWAY peeps!! Sky a dream in comparison

  • mikelind2 Mike Lind 🦏 (@mikelind2) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia sadly having to post again. Home broadband down again. Your service is so unreliable it is useless. U have failed to provide a reliable broadband service and remain in breach of contract.

  • DigitalJonathan Jonathan Phillips, Esq. (@DigitalJonathan) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia down again... it’s been awful all day. Up and down. You really are a terrible provider.

  • carl_warbs Carl (@carl_warbs) reported

    @virginmedia Can you explain to my how I can agree an upgrade with one of your representatives to a greater broadband speed and add TV services, wait in for the installation, nobody attends, call back and be told that nobody knows anything about it?! Appalling service as usual 🤬

  • ssjjsd Steve Mellor (@ssjjsd) reported

    @virginmedia Have you not seen any of my Tweets? I spent 1 hour and 40 minutes, spoke to 2 employees who just put me on hold, totally unacceptable, I want a different way to cancel or I will use Ofcom, Twitter, Facebook until someone contacts me and tells me how to cancel my service.

  • cooperlynsey1 Lynsey Cooper (@cooperlynsey1) reported

    @virginmedia Do you have an email or someone I can provide details to? Since installing our new Hub 4, we are unable to connect any of our amazon smart devices to the internet & Catch up TV has been down for two weeks.

  • 88_img Ian (@88_img) reported

    @virginmedia hello, was told I would receive my deadlock letter within 7-10 working days which it has been. Not received letter yet and still getting 10s of disconnects a day - no compensation and unable to effective do our jobs. Can you help? Regards,

  • jonflyingtiger Jonathan Smith (@jonflyingtiger) reported

    @virginmedia Could you also... possibly... fix the problem and install my broadband..!? Or is that too much to ask...!?

  • MikeHobden Mike Hobden (@MikeHobden) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia I need to speak to someone to confirm cancellation of an installation. I am getting nowhere online as I am not an existing customer. Can you help?

  • ChristianBaker0 Christian Harrall-Baker (@ChristianBaker0) reported

    @ItsAndyMack @virginmedia Our road has a WhatsApp chat exclusively to co-ordinate complaints on our Virgin Media service - I feel your pain

  • dominiclondon Dlondon (@dominiclondon) reported

    @virginmedia I don’t understand. My question is relatively straightforward. You have said that a fix is underway by approx feb 18. I would like to understand what they are fixing. Local broadband or tv media services.
