    Wow @virginmedia you've out done yourself, 45 mins and counting to cancel sports channels for mum after dad passing away all with an agent #shockingservice

    @virginmedia I have, and I get an automated service that hangs up on me after sending a text. I just want to order wifipods. I’ve tested the speed in the app, but it’s not allowing me to do anything. Chat doesn’t work, and calling won’t let me speak to anyone.

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

    @virginmedia If you’ve got something positive to contribute DM me, like getting someone to call me. Why would I remember the details of 2 hours that I will never get back

    @virginmedia Nothing on there - just a lot of people with same issue! I’ve changed my password, run a security scan and still not getting emails or able to send. What do you suggest I do now please?? @VirginMediaCorp @virginmedia

    @virginmedia After all the outages it's not stopped my WiFi pods working. How do u fix this? I've reset the hib and I've tried plugging the pods in close by to pair again and I get nothing

  • garethbalmer
    Gareth Balmer (@garethbalmer) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia All good now - there were some power issues in another part of Gloucester that seemed to be causing the V6 box at our house and a few friends to restart. Very odd

  • steveparsnips
    Steve Parsons (@steveparsnips) reported from Stoke Gifford, England

    @virginmedia I have spent 7hrs40mins today in a WhatsApp chat with your customer services trying to terminate my broadband and still haven't finalised it. I will be cancelling my DD as I am paid up until May 4th and your hub will be available for you to collect if you wish

  • chrisandobe
    Chris (@chrisandobe) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia hi I need help. I'm not able to call or text so I can't even call virgin media for help.

  • neilcairns
    Neil Cairns (@neilcairns) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia @EGX virginmedia where can I email to complain? My VirginMedia Box won’t let me delete a number of things and my Internet is patchy at best! £83 a month for this ****? Every time you call you people you’re on hold or cut off!

  • RedWoodyLFC
    DavidJWood (@RedWoodyLFC) reported from Bristol, England

    @JaydMulligan @virginmedia Bs3 working 90% since about 9.30 this morning It went down about 10 mins ago but now up and running

  • dave_backwell
    David Lloyd (@dave_backwell) reported from Backwell, England

    She tried to complain, but got nowhere. This month her contract expired, so she tried again. Yesterday she spoke to a customer service guy @virginmedia who was very surprised at what she had been told back in July. He told her to contact the house moving dept, who'd refund her

  • williamjbrown
    william brown (@williamjbrown) reported from Bristol, England

    @BorisJohnson I can only get virginmedia (at an extortionate price) as it’s the only one who supply more than slow basic speeds - and this is the centre of bristol. Nothings improved for most of us - not only for this but everything else since you’ve wrecked our economy

  • 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.

  • kadenbatt
    KB (@kadenbatt) reported from Warmley, England

    @virginmedia I did all that. I waited for thr led to go out. Then went and plugged it in and went green the flashed blue again. 24 hours to connect? It's been working for ages then after the outage yesterday all of a sudden its gone

    Sean Lewis (@brizzlesean) reported from Yate, England

    Honestly, #virginmedia , #Fortnite AND #rocketleague down on the same day?! My son has pretty much had an emotional breakdown.

    @NadineDorries @virginmedia @O2 And that is why you are known as the most stupid MP ever

  • 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!

    @virginmedia @RicardoEyes Maybe show decent customer service when you are contacted about issues initially, not just when people have had enough & leave 🤷

  • WhitmoreJo
    Jo (@WhitmoreJo) reported

    I'm on call to one of your sales team and trying to cancel phone and tv and just have broadband but I'm being told that's not ok and I can't? @tradingstandards @virginmedia @virginmedia

  • abz_06
    Abbie (@abz_06) reported

    @virginmedia You could send someone to Mars and back in the time it’s taking you to fix this. What issue could be so big that takes two whole weeks to fix? You’re a billion pound company. Not good enough.

  • Lotharemas
    Lotharemas (@Lotharemas) reported

    @virginmedia So how do i go about reporting an SNR upstream Area fault now? the forums have been shut down which always handled it before but now ive been stuck with this causing packet loss since early June.

  • daisylou1972
    Daisy ****** (@daisylou1972) reported

    @trapdoor456 @virginmedia Yes, we’ve got it and I’ve found it way faster, and more reliable than Sky. Haven’t had to go through customer services yet, so can’t comment on that. 12 months in and not even had to reset the router.

  • sophm108
    Sophie (@sophm108) reported

    @virginmedia - recordings on my TV hasnt worked for 2 days now. Ive tried restarting , checking connection etc but still having issues. Once again paying for a service that im not receiving

  • victor50
    Kev (@victor50) reported

    @virginmedia if Virgin paid me £5 for every time the wifi went down, I’d be a wealthy man. I am anyway, but not quite enough to sue under the trades description act for diabolical service. Absolutely awful. The new provider can’t get in our area quick enough.

  • chrislove_89
    Chris Love (@chrislove_89) reported

    @andy_mac21 @virginmedia You’re right Andy, just a couple of responses from “Core Claim Support” which clearly isn’t affiliated with the actual company and is some spammer/scammer trying to get me to DM them my details. They don’t care.

  • NothingLane
    Richard Bignell (@NothingLane) reported

    @trapdoor456 @virginmedia Nope, but much the same story. Dumped useless Virgin years ago. Now with @zeninternet. Once you start a contract, the price NEVER increases. They're a UK company, so absolutely no overseas call centres and the tech service has been first class.
