    @virginmedia is everything down in BS1? Trying to work and can't send any emails 🙄

  • TobyOsborne1 Toby Osborne (@TobyOsborne1) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia I spoke to a rude adviser who said they’d escalate it. However my pac code has already been swapped out and there was no urgency. I am now waiting in the hope that someone else doesn’t get control of my phone

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

    @virginmedia Email to say it was resolved by offer of an apology which I never accepted so I called customer services who offered the credit of overpayment onto my account which I’m still waiting for.

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

    @virginmedia Totally shocking services again, tried web chat messaging etc crap. Speed test less that 12 mbps, paying for 100mbps 🤯🤯🤯 What are you going to do it In off after 20+ years of pain, no more!

  • tinabadley Tina Badley (@tinabadley) reported from Bristol, England

    @BookDreamerSal @virginmedia Having the same problem. Just called Virgin - it seems many people are too. They're trying to sort it.

  • derbypascal Derby Pascal (@derbypascal) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia The service checker just says its down but doesn't tell me what's going on.

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

    @virginmedia help please. How do o get to choose a football game on the red button? It’s not working.

  • AngelMel2017 AngelMelSelector (@AngelMel2017) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Thank you for your reply. He told me that the cheque had not been activated when I first called 5th June. I was told it would be sent out via check. He told me today it would take a further 2/3 weeks. Sadly was no help at all. 😒😥

  • AngelMel2017 AngelMelSelector (@AngelMel2017) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Hello, following on from my tweet regarding complaint of not receiving my credit refund. I have not heard back from the complaints team. What's the best way to proceed? Thanks

  • Hekler21 Simon H (@Hekler21) reported from Westerleigh, England

    @virginmedia hardly a great start as new customer!! Moving house and ordered a new box for moving day, but now won’t be delivered there for over 2 weeks!! #shambles

  • AngelMel2017 AngelMelSelector (@AngelMel2017) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia I'm disappointed with the service I have received. Finally ended my contract, claimed my credit refund only for it still not arrive 6weeks later. Called call centre & was told I'd have to wait 2/3 more weeks. Why? Its unacceptable to have to wait so long. #complaint

  • coxtonycox Tony Cox (@coxtonycox) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia stop emailing and texting me every day threatening to fine me £100 for the non return of your equipment. On 23 August I booked for one of your engineers to collect it on 13 September. This poor customer service is one of the reasons I left Virgin after 10+ years.

  • joannevarney68 Joanne Varney (White (@joannevarney68) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia All checks done, says to check back in 22 hours 😲 if still a issue book a engineer

  • martinparfrey Martin Parfrey (@martinparfrey) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia, your customer support is shocking. Any chance I could speak to a human being not a BOT? Even when I tried to complain, you cut me off!

  • 39digits Christopher Hamilton 🇪🇺 (@39digits) reported

    @virginmedia @hamscores Come on, @virginmedia you don't ask how I'm doing? Internet is still up and down regularly since 3 February...today included...thanks for (not) asking.

  • stubadub stv (@stubadub) reported

    @virginmedia I ran 6 status checks this morning which told me there were no issues. Yet I still have no internet access. Does the service check tool always say everything is fine?

  • LMCFD94 Lauren (@LMCFD94) reported

    @virginmedia quite possibly the worst customer service I have ever encountered. Your employee cancelled the live chat before I could even ask questions and now they want me to keep my browser open for 8 hours?!

  • elkievale Elkie2 (@elkievale) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve done it all 50 times over. It’s a total con. Just cancelled my direct debit and I’ll expect compensation. It works in the room the router is in and that’s all. Week and a half of hell and spent hours on hold to incompetent customer service staff. Absolute joke.

  • DaveKush6 Mr Leroy Tyson (@DaveKush6) reported

    @virginmedia Hi @virginmedia No and as no one was replying I swapped providers this morning .I think it’s horrible the way you ignore people and just hope the problems fix themselves . I can see you reply to others quickly but not me . Horrid company that treats its customers with contempt

  • Smemmerson Sam Emmerson (@Smemmerson) reported

    @virginmedia It was working fine over the weekend but now has gone down again. Definitely not the router as it is effecting other people in the building too

  • TheSinclair5 David Sinclair (@TheSinclair5) reported

    Charged £83.16 to call @virginmedia over a broadband issue. Don't ring them on 0845 4545 1111

  • AFCPrab Prab ☬ プラブ (@AFCPrab) reported

    Not my wifi and my tv box signal randomly going off... thanks Virgin Media.

  • CeranDanis Ciaran Downey (@CeranDanis) reported

    @virginmedia Virgin broadband has made working from home in Cardiff central an absolute nightmare recently. Network has been cutting in and out for the past three weeks. They also make it as hard as possible to find an email or a free phone number for them.

  • MrCharch Rob Charteris (@MrCharch) reported

    @virginmedia why do your cold callers hang up whenever you ask them questions? They just called me to offer me faster broadband. I asked if they were sure I could be upgraded as according to your site I cannot. They hung up. 2nd time in a week now.
