  • DanielFry23 Daniel Fry (@DanielFry23) reported from Filton, England

    @georgiebingham It’s not just Sky, @virginmedia has had a stinker for weeks in Bradley Stoke, Bristol. It’s the worst I’ve seen it since I had it a few years ago, 100mbs should be the speed, yet the signal is in and out for weeks! But I’ve seen it’s not just me it’s the rest of the UK too

  • sarahcliftonsc Sarah (@sarahcliftonsc) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for nothing!! There isn't anything on sky sports so I rang up to remove it and they can't as the price goes up. What a load of shite!!!!!! And cheers for never replying to my tweets

  • tuwituwo Niall (@tuwituwo) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia please help! I’ve been trying all afternoon to resolve an issue with my new order. The online chat goes through to departments with no one in. On the phone call the person hung up on me when I asked for more help. Now on hold again for 50 min

  • Yippers Amy (@Yippers) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Yes it’s still happening this morning. It’s a permanent issue whenever I go on Instagram. A lot of users have brought up this issue already on the internet, but I can’t find the solution. I can’t continue to switch over to my mobile data just to browse that app!

  • Yippers Amy (@Yippers) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia I have done all of the above. Issue here is that this it is affecting other VM customers as well, all of us are using your WiFi! Please check your community forum and you will see there are a lot of posts about the same issue. Resolve this ASAP or consider reimbursement.

  • leedumble Lee (@leedumble) reported from Avonmouth, England

    @virginmedia internet piss poor most expensive package WiFi piss poor customer service shit don’t understand what a shock can you reset and wait 3 hours 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

  • BlackMayan UNEMPLOYED AUB🇲🇼🇬🇧 (@BlackMayan) reported from Kingswood, England

    @notsolittlezee @virginmedia They never respond.. They are exhausting. Me and them are in a toxic relationship I swear. Hard to walk away and yet I keep being abused.

  • CoachGeracitano Ben Geracitano (@CoachGeracitano) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia I have spoken with your team again who say an engineer will be in contact within the next 2-3 days. So there is a fault. And since the call I have now got limited internet... so please do not lie. Instead be honest to a customer of of 10years.

  • burdmiester Paul Burdon (@burdmiester) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia Have real issues with installing and configuring my new WiFi and TV box. Hub continues to flash green and has been for 5 hours, as such can’t proceed to the next stage. Call help desks waited 90 minutes #helpme

  • sophiegiltinan Sophie Giltinan (@sophiegiltinan) reported from Avonmouth, England

    Well my internet went down in the middle of my online exam (which I was doing terribly at anyway), managed to finish but it was utter shit. Ironically this is not the first time I have been shafted by @virginmedia and probably wont be the last.

  • Ornsack Dave Brain 🧠 (@Ornsack) reported from Bristol, England

    I can deal with Virgin Media being down but it appears O2 is down too so I can’t save the day by flicking to 4G. Having to resort to watching NORMAL TELEVISION like the old days.

  • dangerous_85 Dave (@dangerous_85) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia sooo would be nice if the service yiu are providing didnt keep cutting out while I am trying to work. Sort it out ffs!!!

  • SToolis Steve (@SToolis) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia internet down all day, again, here in Bristol. 🤬 Absolute joke considering how much we pay each month. Please acknowledge and accept some responsibility! #virginmediadown #virginmedia #virginbroadband

  • Allypally52 Alison Newnham (@Allypally52) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia suddenly unable to log into virgin on phone, my Mac, husband’s PC so unable to access emails. Won’t recognise password, security question etc or allow me to change. Please help!

  • Yippers Amy (@Yippers) reported from Bristol, England

    I’ve been on your community page and seen a lot of VM customers have also posted the same issue with no resolution or response from @virginmedia! You need to sort this out - using mobile data instead of WiFi is not what I signed up for.

  • AyrtekCricket Ayrtek Cricket (@AyrtekCricket) reported from Bristol, England

    @Ciaransworld @Roaster323 @virginmedia Yep that’s what I’ve got in the office as I’ve got a separate WiFi network in here set-up. It’s not the WiFi strength more the lack of phone signal I get in here!

  • DanielFry23 Daniel Fry (@DanielFry23) reported from Filton, England

    @virginmedia your device in the BS32 are of bristol is beyond a joke! You expect us to pay money for a service that dial is faster all those years ago! Sort it out!

  • BlackMayan UNEMPLOYED AUB🇲🇼🇬🇧 (@BlackMayan) reported from Kingswood, England

    I don't need your help anyway @virginmedia wasteman...

  • AyrtekCricket Ayrtek Cricket (@AyrtekCricket) reported from Bristol, England

    @Roaster323 @virginmedia FaceTime and WhatsApp are over 4G or WiFi anyway. This is for normal calls/texts when you don’t have any signal. I built my office with insulated floors/roof/walls which means it’s terrible for signal due to foil used on the insulation so at least this will resolve that issue

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

    @virginmedia 🤣 if only this could be believed. Service is no different than any prior month - stop using the current situation to excuse Virgin’s continuous shortcomings it assumes customers are somewhat mentally incapacitated

  • takriiii takri (@takriiii) reported

    @virginmedia no there is not. If I try to call up and speak to your technician's, they say there's no problem. There clearly is when it's cutting out for a second or two every few minutes.

  • EllAyling Elliott Ayling (@EllAyling) reported

    @virginmedia Been waiting for reply on Whatsapp for almost 40 hours. Tried calling but was on hold for an hour before I gave up. Just trying to cancel my package, but impossible to get a hold of anybody!

  • simon1703 simcfc ctid (@simon1703) reported

    @virginmedia I told the advisor as I am currently away from home I need to make sure I have no interruption, I was reassured that I wouldn’t, I am now stuck without a phone for 24 hours! How do I make a complaint as this is unacceptable, and do not say send a letter to a postal address!

  • ADaveWard David Ward (@ADaveWard) reported

    So swapped to @virginmedia TV today. Main TV box failed before I even used it! Awful start to our relationship @virginmedia I am not impressed, I have to wait until Monday for another visit to fix your box of... @virginhelp

  • youhaveanyco Jish (@youhaveanyco) reported

    @virginmedia Refund me for the service I don't get :)

  • ditzyk kelly Dawkins (@ditzyk) reported

    @virginmedia When I phoned up I was told you would’ve sent me to Apple anyway & as Apple said it’s a hardware issue & is not repairable then there’s nothing you can do. How much would the fee be? I was originally told £600

  • Tazboi921 Tazboi92 (@Tazboi921) reported

    @richardbranson @VirginVoyages Yeah awesome hope it's customer service is better than the virgin media side been on hold for over an hour with yet again slow Internet speed and still waiting for the refund. Also just been disconnected after over an hour on hold yet again VERY VERY INSANE CUSTOMER SERVICE WOW

  • ratz4ever Sharon (@ratz4ever) reported

    @virginmedia I phoned nearly a month ago to cancel my mum's package and was told the kit would have to be returned (after being told previously it wouldn't - Tivo and Hub 2). How long should I expect to wait to receive the returns pack, please?

  • Re6eccaBoo 🌿Rebecca⛲ (@Re6eccaBoo) reported

    Three times I have rang @virginmedia to cancel my mobile sim before this tariff change period to cancel comes in to place. Also, I was promised a phone call back this morning which hasn't materialised. I feel an official complaint coming on. Not impressed at all.

  • simon1703 simcfc ctid (@simon1703) reported

    @virginmedia it’s not about that, I was told I would have no impact to service until I put my new sim in my phone! What are you going to do about it?
