    @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

    @virginmedia I been with virgin for years and last month was put on the new virgin O2 SIM deal. I'm already looking forward to when I can cancel the O2 SIM only part. Couldn't get any help with O2 but luckily the person at virgin helped me.

    @virginmedia No, it doesn’t, and the internet goes down again within hours, usually in the evening when I presume there’s high usage. We’re in a loop - report issue, told issue is resolved, issue happens again.

    Virgin media make me 🤬 Been with them for 6yrs (no other option in our flats), paid their extortionate prices & received pretty poor intermittent service. Moving house & they don’t supply our new area 🥳 but they would like to charge a cancellation fee of £30.38

  • LetRIP
    Matt (@LetRIP) reported from Thornbury, England

    @virginmedia Yes. That isn’t the point though. Your website has no information about how to contact you. And your web chat takes 1 hour to do the task of reporting bad speeds. Your contact support needs vast improvement.

  • nongrockle
    Trevor Whiteman (@nongrockle) reported from Bristol, England

    @JuanaWhiteman @virginmedia Zero customer service

    @virginmedia another outage again? Fix your ****

  • ruthcottz
    Ruth Cottingham💙 (@ruthcottz) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia no Internet in BS16 1DY. I called 150. Your recorded message says service out until 3pm, as you're "working to improve services" in this area. Why didn't you tell us before?!

  • gillih
    Gill Harrison (@gillih) reported from Portishead and North Weston, England

    Hi @virginmedia @helpvirginmedia @VirginMediaCorp why won’t my Outlook connect to your server? No emails for 3 days. It’s an issue your end yet no help from your tech team.

  • gillih
    Gill Harrison (@gillih) reported from Portishead and North Weston, England

    @virginmedia I have got this sorted with your team now. Helpful person. But I suggest changing your auto system to give callers an idea of wait time. Better customer service.

  • thisisryanc
    Ryan Carrington (@thisisryanc) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Constantly drops out, coupled with frequently slow speeds. Price increases for a worsening service.

  • 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

  • BRFCSamuel
    Sam 🏴‍☠️ (@BRFCSamuel) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia This contact was via the phone. He did give a reason, the reason being he didn’t know what the problem was. So told us to sit here and wait with no Wi-Fi and hope it sorts itself out.

  • AndyMWilcox
    Andy Wilcox (@AndyMWilcox) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia My broadband keeps disconnecting. This is my 4th time contacting and it gets worse each time you apparently fix something. Please can you fix it. I cannot work at home and I’ve just been booted out of your online chat to resolve the problem!

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

    Appalling customer service thread to follow about @VirginMedia. 6 months ago my partner and I moved in together. We were both customers with @virginmedia but for obvious reasons decided we only needed one account in our new house ...

  • gman7634
    graham monks (@gman7634) reported from Patchway, England

    @virginmedia It's fixed now and it was a problem in the box down the road, almost 24hrs to fix it is a bit of a joke thou 🙄🙄

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

    @virginmedia @bushwacka_ofc @nordoffrobbins 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!

  • SuddenLife

    @gloucesterglass @virginmedia Mobile phone signal in Tewkesbury is virtually non existent. I can’t send SMS text inside my home, there no 5G, and I get a weak 4G on Tewkesbury bypass. Fortunately, I have good WiFi, YouFibre 900mb for £24 monthly.

    @virginmedia I moved house on August 28th and Virgin has been unable to connect my internet service. It's terrible service; I've wasted hours talking to them with no results. #Sutton #England #SOS

    @virginmedia hi. Your phone service and chat service are both failing after I input my account number.

  • Malcolm_Sillick

    @LeilaniDowding @EE Lellani, it's not just EE, it's everyone. Even those on cable (Virgin Media) still have to have the phone plugged into the router. Seems like a good idea, until you get a power cut (which can be supported by a back-up battery, which is NOT given as standard) If the internet goes down, then so does your phone. Great if you have a mobile, but if you live in an area with a poor mobile signal, so reply on 'Wi-Fi calling' in the house, then when the internet goes down, you also have no mobile service. It's called progress!!
