  • courttttxxo Court✨ (@courttttxxo) reported from Avonmouth, England

    Honestly @virginmedia has to be the biggest load of **** ever. We never have WiFi, even the TV that’s hooked up to the Ethernet cable isn’t working. At least once a day the WiFi drops. We live in Bristol, not the ******* outback

  • ChristianSurfer Phil Williams (@ChristianSurfer) reported from Nailsea, England

    @virginmedia another 5 days waiting for a call back .. and this was after my case had been ‘elevated’ and a promise for all to be sorted on a Friday - more broken promises / what do you suggest now ? Just leave after 22 years ? @MartinSLewis @WhichUK - all details being recorded

  • daintree75 leighton daintree (@daintree75) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia I have had to email your DPO department again today for an update as it will be 3 weeks tomorrow since last reply. This has been rumbling on for a month. Your customer service is shocking. Who do I need to complain to? @Offcom?

  • adamnieman Adam Nieman 💙 (@adamnieman) reported from Bristol, England

    @jonWturney @virginmedia If only they DID invest in their network. They bought Telewest in a fire-sale many years ago and have spent barely a penny on it. My guess is that they are able to ‘upgrade’ your speed because all of your neighbours have switched to BT, who actually have invested.

  • daintree75 leighton daintree (@daintree75) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia I dont want an account with you to send a complaint. I do not want to be your customer. All I want is to get this resolved. Do I have to go through @Offcom to resolve the issue issue?

  • MartinRose2 Martin Rose (@MartinRose2) reported from Bristol, England

    @mouthwaite @virginmedia All of the wi-fi providers are rubbish. I am with BT and had to make several complaints about poor signal. You would be better off with a pay as you go dongle to be perfectly honest.

  • digthisfood Pete Lawrence (@digthisfood) reported from Bristol, England

    I cannot believe just how lousy the service is from @virginmedia . Counting down the days to my contract end.

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

    @virginmedia Reliable joke still not working properly and a engineer book for today and guess what he did not turn up don’t worry on half a day wages wasted took time off unpaid joke 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

  • ChristianSurfer Phil Williams (@ChristianSurfer) reported from Nailsea, England

    @richardbranson are you anything to do with @virginmedia ? If so please can you get someone to finally do something they promise. 15 hours on phone, promised credits, nothing arrives, overcharge £50 p/month & promised of a call back & nothing 22 years a customer, 6 weeks waiting

  • brizzleboy pete jones (@brizzleboy) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Tried using that contact forms again, still nothing helps, I'll just hang on line for another hour 🤬🤬

  • daintree75 leighton daintree (@daintree75) reported from Bristol, England

    @liveseytowers @virginmedia @SkyUK Thanks I just might as I have never gave them any information. They had my mobile number and email address. So I need to get to the bottom of the problem 🤔

  • CraigAllan5 Craig Allan (@CraigAllan5) reported from Clevedon, England

    @virginmedia shocking service so far. Ordered our broadband a month in advance of our house move as is essential because we’re both working from home. Been in a week and had delivery of my hub but still not able to connect. Advice is always just to wait and it will come online.

  • VickyLorych VickyL (@VickyLorych) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia so disappointed 😞 I was quoted £70 pm all in today now my bill has arrived and it’s £100 and next month you wanted to charge me £277 😳 now sat waiting to cancel the services ! 😡

  • fifiifif Fi Willi (@fifiifif) reported from Bristol, England

    AGH! 40 mins waiting on the phone to find out that @virginmedia will not help you understand why the internet service is slow unless you have an Ethernet plugged in... WHO CONNECTS BY WIRE TO THE INTERNET IN THE AGE OF TABLETS AND SMARTPHONE?! Ugh! 😡 #penalised

  • edwinokli Edwin Walker (@edwinokli) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia I have an issue with Bluetooth headphones interfering with WiFi signal. Two pairs of headphones, same result. Is there anything I can do to the router to stop this from happening? It's better when I switch off the 2.4GHz band.

  • jonki1980 Jon K (@jonki1980) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Broadband is down in Bristol BS16. Stopped about 30 minutes - tried rebooting twice on and off included are you aware of any issues? Service Status says no issues - no message on calling 150 #virginmediadown

  • TruVetCommando TruVetCommando (@TruVetCommando) reported from Avonmouth, England

    @Ofcom hi there @virginmedia are charging me for fibre350 and im getting 30 at the best there customer service will not even send out a engineer to look. This has been going on for months. I have just spent over 2 hours on the phone again to them all they said is complain to you.

  • TruVetCommando TruVetCommando (@TruVetCommando) reported from Avonmouth, England

    @virginmedia Well just spent over 2 hours talking to your customer services team to be told 30mbps is acceptable for fibre350 what happened to money back if min 180mbps not reached

  • daintree75 leighton daintree (@daintree75) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Hi No absolutely nothing. Its so poor and terrible customer service. I am so unhappy with you. The funny thing is that @virginmedia rang me yesterday to see if you could win my business back from @SkyUK if I have a problem they sort it may take a call or 2 but its dealt with.

  • daintree75 leighton daintree (@daintree75) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia So i have to fill out forms because you have my details. I will putting a complaint into @Offcom

  • networkbail A h (@networkbail) reported

    @virginmedia It’s gone down again this evening. What is going on?? This is happening regularly over the last week or so

  • Gregnapp Gregory Stephen (@Gregnapp) reported

    @virginmedia i believe there’s been a mistake on an old bill, do you have a customer care email address I can write to, it should be a quick fix.

  • lewisdg88 Lewis (@lewisdg88) reported

    @JamesSunman1 When I eventually got through @virginmedia just fobbed me off with “we’re sorry there’s nothing we can do” even though it’s a direct contravention of the 5 week old contract & their own publicity materials. So they have now lost me as a customer.

  • EllieOHara10 Ellie O’Hara (@EllieOHara10) reported

    @Scarllxtt PLS MY WIFI SUCKS LIKE VIRGIN MEDIA IS PANTS I DO NOT RECOMMEND LMAO

  • W45EMS Sole.Surfer (@W45EMS) reported

    @virginmedia Your WiFi is trash... cuts out everyday, even the functionality of your remote and the boxes, the fact you can't even pause a show for more than a couple mins is a joke. Terrible.

  • nazarbijle NB (@nazarbijle) reported

    @virginmedia Virginia media WiFi Broadband down AGAIN!! I should seriously consider going to BT now. VERY DISAPPOINTED😠

  • Sam_Rigg1 Sam (@Sam_Rigg1) reported

    Hi @SkyHelpTeam. I have a slight problem. My current virginmedia internet is driving me insane with how bad it is and I want to switch but the fastest speed you offer in my street is 11mbps. Is there any possible way for me to get one of your higher speed packages? Thanks.

  • shellzenner 🐚 Shell Zenner 🐚 (@shellzenner) reported

    @StoodUpTooFast @virginmedia Can you send me a link to what you purchased please?! I just want a resolution and I’m not sure what the issue is at the moment but I feel like I’m being messed around. I tried every communication channel that wasn’t public to no avail so have had to resort to this which is poor

  • alwzander Drew Alexander (@alwzander) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @TCL_TV_Global @Dolby Wonder if you can help I am looking for a code for a TCL tv to work with my virgin media remote control in the uk

  • Stento1867 James Stenton. (@Stento1867) reported

    @virginmedia There has to be a law against your kind of service or lack of it. Your customer service is on par with your Internet! I've spent more time trying to get someone to sort out my connection over the past 3 weeks! And here we still are!
