  • stumccullagh Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia internet down yet again ..... McDonalds carpark to get their WiFi just for a Zoom call!!!!

  • brumadam Adam (@brumadam) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia hi, since we’ve upgraded to 1gb and hub 4 we’ve had problems connecting @Tesla M3 to WiFi. Advised the Plume mesh might fix it and we can receive FOC but been out of stock all year it seems. Any idea when they might be back in stock to try and fix our issues please?

  • all_day_ Mat Burling (@all_day_) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia No there isn’t and the only issue is with audio description, it’s driving me mad. I’ve switched it off but it makes no difference.

  • tahmehtay Tahmehtay (@tahmehtay) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia seems to supply only just above half of the country, but if you change address to an area they don't supply YOU have to pay £240 exit fee. Do not use them if you can't see into the future and know for sure that you will never move. Insane!

  • jdbhrrs JADE (@jdbhrrs) reported from Birmingham, England

    does anybody else have a really bad time with @virginmedia broadband? my bill has gone up a couple of pounds recently but the internet is actually the worst it’s ever been 🥴

  • Markycot Mark Cottrill (@Markycot) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Internet and TV down yet again and this after a debacle of a mis sold “extra” remote control this weekend, absolute disaster and terrible customer service!

  • jaward916 Jonathan Ward (@jaward916) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia Yup, seems your systems have issues so the poor chap's calling me back later!

  • tahmehtay Tahmehtay (@tahmehtay) reported from Birmingham, England

    In addition to the cost of a new home that I have to furnish fully top to bottom, @virginmedia is trying to charge me £240 exit fee when THEY don't supply the new address. This is seriously getting me down. I can't even afford necessities.

  • davidiharris David Ian Harris (@davidiharris) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia who can I speak to about your shambolic customer service!!!??? 💩

  • azoidismd Dr Ioannis Azoidis (@azoidismd) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Yes, everyone is sorry and everyone understands but no one wants to help. I still haven’t cancelled and you ask me to pay early cancellation fees after raising the prices. If not talking about the current contract I stayed a customer for almost 4 years even with the abuse I got.

  • jenstait Jens Tait. (@jenstait) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    So yet again another WiFi problem with @virginmedia in #wolverhampton and expected connection fix at 1:03am. Right... so how am I going to work now ?! 😡

  • JtheB_DKP Jack The Biscuit 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@JtheB_DKP) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia • 3 times I’ve been cut off this morning while trying to sort out my bill. Could someone please help?

  • tahmehtay Tahmehtay (@tahmehtay) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia is trying to charge me an exit fee of £240 because I am changing address. I would continue with their service, except THEY don't supply the new address. How is this OK? How is such a large company getting away with such a brazen scam. Wow!

  • darrendunbar70 Darren Dunbar (@darrendunbar70) reported from Birmingham, England

    @coopersalty I strongly suggest you invest in Sky or Virgin media then. Having an old TV with only 5 channels is the problem here!!

  • Markycot Mark Cottrill (@Markycot) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia for the second day out of the last 60 hours we have no Internet or TV in the B92 area!! You do know the rules are still to work from home if you can don’t you? Atrocious service and reliability!!

  • jaward916 Jonathan Ward (@jaward916) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia Morning! So I checked the app for status and was fine, but on the website it said known issue all services. So I subscribed to the SMS alerts and it was "back" at 22:03. Hopefully it stays that way!

  • CraigBrownGolf Craig Brown (@CraigBrownGolf) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia such bad service from day one, nothing but problems and frustrations, an active complaint now been running for all of 2021 and so far I’ve received no contact, I have called in at least 6 times each time I get promised it will be sorted but still waiting? Shocking!!

  • Lacie_Adams1 Lacie_Adams (@Lacie_Adams1) reported from West Bromwich, England

    Well done @virginmedia screwed up again.. even on an online chat when it is written down infront of you you end up removing elements of my package I have specifically asked you to keep on 😡 it would be nice to have one good experience with you. How do I log a complaint?

  • king_body_art King Of Ink Land ® (@king_body_art) reported from Birmingham, England

    @shannonkeatingx @virginmedia Guessing you tweeted them after there closing hours. Ring them up make an official complaint this is an error that many fall short off. Plus you have the option of switching. @richardbranson name dragged through mud with these telecoms business

  • travellingcoral Coral Musgrave 🇪🇺🇬🇧🇳🇴 (@travellingcoral) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @ThatLyndsey @priddy @virginmedia We sent it as advised as a tracked delivery with proof of postage. That's why it's £11. And they're charging £10 admin fee to disconnect our phone line. Absolutely shambolic service. #utilitywarehouse

    @virginmedia No everytime I call I am advised I need to continue to wait and they are raising the issue with the back office again and someone will contact me

  • stubales stu b (@stubales) reported

    @virginmedia @BigIssue Can you let me know when the broadband issues in the NE33 area will be fixed? Since friday the internet is going off for long periods of time. Thanks in advance.

  • SophiePembo Sophie Pembo (@SophiePembo) reported

    @virginmedia I have spoken to 5 departments, been hung up on, lied to and mis-sold by your team with absolutly no way to resolve an issue despite having proof of my case. I am beyond frustrated, who can i contact to sort this out?!

  • clydon11 Katie (@clydon11) reported

    @virginmedia I hope they do too. I wonder how many people were sat in 7am-9pm on Saturday waiting for a phone to be delivered that you guys knew since December 1st was never going to be delivered. Maybe let your customers know 🙄

  • stubales stu b (@stubales) reported

    @virginmedia @BigIssue There is a broadband issue in the NE33 area. Wi-fi is going off for periods of long time and then back on after 4pm. Plugging in a Ethernet cable makes no difference, and no it is not a high volume of users. This is a problem that started on Friday 18th December2020.

  • AngusReidUK Angus Reid (@AngusReidUK) reported

    @virginmedia I spent over 1hr on the phone (inc c.45mins on hold) last Monday to resolve an issue. They escalated and said I’d be phoned back within 48hrs. I’ve heard nothing - please can someone help ASAP!

  • flameyt Wayne Hughes (@flameyt) reported

    @virginmedia An hours waiting time on the phone to resolve an issue caused by virgin failing to honour a verbal agreement. Awful customer service

  • bell_a3 Andrew Bell (@bell_a3) reported

    @virginmedia The most frustrating thing is the lack/delay of customer service.

  • ALSnarrative ALS 🎭🏃🏾‍♂️🎓 (@ALSnarrative) reported

    @virginmedia No help needed today but would like to ensure a good service Christmas Day please
