  • LeoNak84 Leo Nakhimoff (@LeoNak84) reported from Bristol, England

    @Seanie08 @virginmedia My speed this morning was 14mbps. Supposed to 108mbps average. They told me too many devices connected, so I turned off phone to 4g, turned off iPad and disconnect Amazon Alexa. Nothing else connected. Speed went up to 18mbps 🤣 ‘We are showing a good service!’ ByeBye.....

  • willdace Will Dace (@willdace) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia after many wasted hours debating the logic of this, I am broken. Your system is as functional as an inflatable dartboard, and makes it difficult for your customer service staff. Please cancel my contract and allow me to return your gear.

  • ho_cherrie Cherrie Ho (@ho_cherrie) reported from Bristol, England

    Hi @virginmedia, would appreciate some help in cancelling my broadband service. Website suggests a contact number to call which is a voicemail and diverts me to get help online. I’m getting no where.

  • georgetscott George Scott (@georgetscott) reported from Bristol, England

    @MrStuartForrest @virginmedia I had issues throughout yesterday but seems okay today... 😬

  • aplee82 Andrew Lee (@aplee82) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Too many issues to describe in Twitter limit. Problems with installation of broadand, land line, TV and with mobile. Someone at @virginmedia needs to take responsibility and deal with it and my complaint. I'm promised a call back but never happens #virginmediadontcare

  • Rita_magalhaes1 Rita Magalhaes (@Rita_magalhaes1) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia I have now attempted to contact twice about cancelling my contract, as I am moving out of my student house this month. Can I please get some aid with this, as i cannot get through to the call centre, nor find the correct email for customer services.

  • jordygordz JG (@jordygordz) reported from Bristol, England

    Virgin media is so **** yet so good at the same time. Pissing me off

  • amy_bramhall Amy Bramhall (@amy_bramhall) reported from Keynsham, England

    @virginmedia We haven’t had service for 6 days now. Still no soloution... The people you sub contract cut our cables and cemented on top when putting an unasked for access point in outside, the engineers can’t fix it.

  • LeoNak84 Leo Nakhimoff (@LeoNak84) reported from Bristol, England

    In the same month @virginmedia bill has doubled, the reliability has quartered. Internet at home is essentially useless & the WiFi router a clunky decoration! 2020, in a big city, and searching on Google is slower than an old dial-up modem. Usual awful customer service.

  • Team_Penster SamuEL Penster in the Multiverse (@Team_Penster) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Is down again been down like 17 times this week. Jokers

  • Deannyy92 Soundwaves 🎮 (@Deannyy92) reported from Filton, England

    Swear I can’t get through an entire day of work without @virginmedia going down & having to reset my router.. thank god it’s only one month until the end of my contract.

  • willdace Will Dace (@willdace) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia after many wasted hours debating the logic of this, I am broken. Your system is as functional as an inflatable dartboard, and makes it difficult for your customer service staff. Please allow me to return your gear then cancel my contract.

  • aplee82 Andrew Lee (@aplee82) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Doesn't explain why I was promised call backs on both Thursday and yesterday and they didn't happen, or why the issues remain unresolved after two weeks and I have to keep chasing... #virginmediaterriblecustomerservice

  • MickDickinson BuzzedUp (@MickDickinson) reported from Bristol, England

    @JustMeBeingMe4 @virginmedia Hiya that why I left Virginmedia terrible service - I joined UW better broadband half the price. Happy to chat it through

  • amy_bramhall Amy Bramhall (@amy_bramhall) reported from Keynsham, England

    @virginmedia No. It’s been advised your contractors drilled through our cables and then shoved cement down there making it impossible for the engineers to fix. Day 9 with no internet today. Going to cancel as really need to work at home 😡

  • BenChem1010 Ben Hetherington (@BenChem1010) reported from Filton, England

    @virginmedia been on hold for a web chat for 3 hours now, and all phone numbers redirect to an automated service, telling me to use the web chat ... Is there any way to actually speak to someone?

  • amy_bramhall Amy Bramhall (@amy_bramhall) reported from Keynsham, England

    @virginmedia We sent a complaint on Wednesday last week and no reply. It’s making life very difficult and still no sign of it being fixed despite 2 different ppl coming out yesterday and today

  • aplee82 Andrew Lee (@aplee82) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Since moving to @virginmedia 2 weeks ago everything that could go wrong has, and no one at VM has taken resposibilty. I've raised a complaint and have been promised mangers would call but no one does. Just been on phone again, still problems and no help.... #virginmediadontcare

  • aplee82 Andrew Lee (@aplee82) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia What exactly do you think I've been doing? I've lost count of the number of times I've phoned but there is never a manger available to talk to me. I was again told yesterday that someone would call at lunchtime today but they didn't. What more I can do? #virginmediadontcare

  • Team_Penster SamuEL Penster in the Multiverse (@Team_Penster) reported from Bristol, England

    Vm @virginmedia clearly know there are issues as its been dropping constantly since 2ish... service status "no issues"

  • woodingian1 Ian Wooding (@woodingian1) reported

    @virginmedia We are now 3 hours in and still no further than we was at 4 o’clock from when we started. You still haven’t told me information you need. You know how to drag this out. Am happy that people can see how you treat a woman who has just lost her husband

  • donnawood483 donnamilton (@donnawood483) reported

    @virginmedia Can someone please help, my 81 year old grandma has been trying to sort an issue out for days...no help or sensible assistance, in a COVID pandemic she has had to go to the bank to get payment details..shocking !!!!

  • Joanne57442452 Joanne (@Joanne57442452) reported

    @virginmedia we have done all that the website has told us to do and yet still no broadband. According to your website there’s no issue and yet clearly there is as internet was working fine about 2 hours ago

  • patricksturg patricksturgis (@patricksturg) reported

    @virginmedia I am supposed to have 500mb broadband but when I am connecting on Zoom, it constantly freezes & I get a message saying I have an unstable connection. I get the same when I am watching streaming tv.

  • robredpath Rob Redpath (@robredpath) reported

    @rachelcoldicutt @virginmedia I’ve got Linksys Velop - it’s about £75 per node (I’ve got 3 nodes, thinking about a 4th to improve a bit of a dead zone). Super easy to set up, and support were patient when I broke it by tinkering. It’s possibly to directly admin but the app is easier. (1/2)

  • LumleyPj PJ Lumley (@LumleyPj) reported

    @virginmedia 4hrs on phone, 4hrs plus on useless txt chat and still not solved my issue. Just going around in circles

  • welsh_girlie me (@welsh_girlie) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi have tried on several occasions to get through. Waiting anything from 30-60 minutes. Still having issues. Maybe @virginmedia would be the answer as sky you are useless.

  • aSheedy_ aSheedy 💙 (@aSheedy_) reported

    @The_True_Shires @virginmedia no one ******* likes you fix your internet

  • LRLettings Leigh Rowland (@LRLettings) reported from Pontnewydd, Wales

    @virginmedia I know we are going around in circles here but I have spent 4 hours on instant messenger with you guys...its pointless...u cant help me out...they lied to me, what a complete and utter flawed process..thanku for responding but this is also a waste of my time...

  • Darylmore77 Daryl (@Darylmore77) reported

    @virginmedia I'm basically thinking about cancelling the internet. I've been a customer for 5 years or so and in that time my bill has increased from £32 to £48 per momth from this March despite me lowering my speed from 200 to 100mbp/s. Also my Hub 3's wireless barely even functions.
