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

    @virginmedia As early as possible before whoever does this manages to help themselves to my money like last time

  • MTurnerNFL Matthew Turner (@MTurnerNFL) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia The only issue I have with that is that every time I contact that number, the following happens: 1) I explain the issue, again 2) they advise me to follow the steps as are online, again, that I've already done, even though I say I've done them 3) they ask me to monitor 1/2

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

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

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

    @virginmedia My account has been compromised so I can’t sign in to join?

  • 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

  • MTurnerNFL Matthew Turner (@MTurnerNFL) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Hi again guys. Exactly the same experience. They can't help me because by the time I've waited on hold, and weve discussed the problem again (for the 20th time or so), the problem has resolved. It's still happening 4 times an evening and it needs fixing. Please help.

  • 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.

  • 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. 😒😥

  • 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.

  • 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

  • MTurnerNFL Matthew Turner (@MTurnerNFL) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Even if everything is replaced. Box, entire cabling, whatever. I'm not getting the service that I pay for, over an extended period of time.

  • 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 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

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

    @virginmedia I'm not sure what you mean, I literally have no signal or mobile data, hundreds of people are in the same position. And others with EE and Three are also down in this area but no one knows why...

  • enzo_faulhaber Enzo Faulhaber (@enzo_faulhaber) reported from Yate, England

    @virginmedia running with some issue with some of your staff member. As they promise me to Install a broadband at my house but now ignore 🧐

  • 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.

  • aal916965 aal916965 (@aal916965) reported

    @Ofcom how do I file a complaint about @virginmedia for lying to me? I filed complaint on 23 Dec to #Virginmedia. They offered to refund £64 immediately to close complaint. They closed complaint but never refunded me. Today they told me they won't refund me. I have evidence #liar

  • PorkyMukester Porky Mukester (@PorkyMukester) reported

    @virginmedia @TheBHF @O2 Can they be used on our broken broadband? Third day of outages.

  • Parleyyyyyy Josh (@Parleyyyyyy) reported

    @virginmedia Same thing again, it’s like the app is just re starting every time I load it up & click on login as virgin media customer

  • EroldLashley Erold Lashley (@EroldLashley) reported

    @virginmedia you really need to sort out your customer service got to be the worst.

  • RF34303722 RF (@RF34303722) reported

    @F10NA_2017 @virginmedia The Virgin Media web page says "Sorry, we can't run a test on your services right now" ! That was helpful! However having phoned the automate Virgin service and the Virgin helpline they acknowledge there is a network outage

  • RF34303722 RF (@RF34303722) reported

    @virginmedia Alas I have no confidence that it will be fixed soon. Virgin seem to be good a rinsing their customers and not offering compensation - less so at notifying, fixing and preventing network issues

  • JasonAr96421510 Jason Arthur (@JasonAr96421510) reported

    @virginmedia Not gonna happen. Cust service is a joke. I’ll just continue to share my experience with others on social media and feedback to Lutz Schuler as I’m now in contact with his office

  • johndeeps2 johndeeps (@johndeeps2) reported

    @virginmedia I have been invited to comment on this twitter thing. In trying to cancel my broadband account I have found the website contact page does not work. Ringing the 0345 number get throughnbut then you are advised to use SMS because it will be a quicker process.

  • AGB_92 AB (@AGB_92) reported

    @virginmedia why is it so difficult getting an issue with your company fixed. Two calls I made to you last night to be told ‘it’s a problem in my area’ when I know for a fact my routers broken… how do I get a new one sent?

  • kooksboo Julie Whelan (@kooksboo) reported

    @virginmedia Txt not talk! And they apparently can’t reduce my £111 bill any lower so I have to cancel TV even though my partners package is lower! Will sign up to Sky
