  • John1827Joyce Ice Cold Chef (@John1827Joyce) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia morning Team. I appear to have lost my original password for my TiVo box. Is there a way to locate this, I’ve never changed it from the day of fitting. Thanks in advance 😊 new devices arriving tomorrow and I need to hook them up via WiFi

  • markhol55 Mark (@markhol55) reported from South Shore, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Thanks for your response, also @virginmedia response was that it was down to your broadcast. I guess nobody will take responsibility. The red button picture quality was poor. I don’t expect UHD only a clear picture. Irrespective of who’s fault as a customer this isn’t acceptable

  • mands4walkies Mandy 🐩🐾🐕🐾🐶🐾🦅 (@mands4walkies) reported from Southport, England

    @virginmedia Please note @Ofcom that @virginmedia has been down across south west London for 48 hours due to a 3rd party digging up a cable. Virgin Media’s network resilience; disaster recovery; and customer comm’s are inadequate.

  • JackDSprigg Jack Sprigg (@JackDSprigg) reported from South Shore, England

    @callumtay_ @virginmedia Chat shit, you’re just bad

  • JackCarroll_ JackC (@JackCarroll_) reported from Blackpool, England

    Is Virgin media tits up or is the cod servers tits up here or is it both, **** my life

  • lynneglenn13 Lynne Webster (@lynneglenn13) reported from South Shore, England

    2.agent spoke over my husband constantly. 3.He refused to get a supervisor. 4.Agent stated” I don’t mind loosing my job over this call so I suggest you complain to Richard Branson “!! 5. Agent rude, condescending and arrogant @virginmedia

  • RealStuartCarey Stuart Carey (@RealStuartCarey) reported from Kirkham, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been getting “ No Service “ since Sunday. My postcode is Pr42uj. Is there a problem in my area. 🤔

  • MrJHolt John Holt (@MrJHolt) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia It might be worth you reading my previous tweets. I have done a considerable amount of various things to fix the issue. Shouldn't need to call when you've confirmed by email. Unless you're willing to pay for my time.

  • MrJHolt John Holt (@MrJHolt) reported from South Shore, England

    @Bannedanaliens1 @virginmedia I'm having similar issues. If you pay by Direct Debit you can claim from the DD guarantee, doesn't solve the speed but gives them a kick.

  • lynneglenn13 Lynne Webster (@lynneglenn13) reported from South Shore, England

    1. Fuming @virginmedia . Disgusting customer service today when my husband called to report a fault. Our disabled son has no access to his virgin box for watching Netflix. Asked for an engineer. “We don’t do that you will have to pay”.

  • MissT2009 Tammy (@MissT2009) reported from Blackpool, England

    @virginmedia Fine. I'll just cancel my account then seem as I can't speak to anyone to resolve my issue

  • John1827Joyce Ice Cold Chef (@John1827Joyce) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia No problem Team. Managed to locate the initial pin the TiVo came with. All sorted after digging through various passwords 👍

  • lynneglenn13 Lynne Webster (@lynneglenn13) reported from South Shore, England

    Filled in customer complaint form and advised at 3:00pm we would get a call-back. It’s now 21:00 and still waiting. Never ever experienced such appalling customer service. If you are interested @virginmedia we have agents name.

  • lynneglenn13 Lynne Webster (@lynneglenn13) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia I suggest this call is listened to as if this is the Calibre of customer service agents then Richard Branson really needs to know. I will not let this drop 😡😡

  • bastardthen christian snow (@bastardthen) reported from Blackpool, England

    So @virginmedia has gone down ....... keep calm it's not the end of the world it will be back up working faster than us getting let out again

  • SandraMangan_ Sandra Mangan (@SandraMangan_) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia I have checkedea h time it happens. It’s saying there is no Problem. It’s happening several times a day, for short periods. Very frustrating.

  • docherty53 Andy Docherty (@docherty53) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia gets a very poor score regarding customer service on watchdog ..I am feeling vindicated :) to be fair they score very well on broadband speed

  • RealStuartCarey Stuart Carey (@RealStuartCarey) reported from Kirkham, England

    @virginmedia So I did it this morning and it said there was a problem in my area and it should be fix by 3pm today but I still keep seeing a “no service” sign appear.

  • Welsh_Will70 Will Stephen Lynes (@Welsh_Will70) reported from Blackpool, England

  • croupier1970 Retep Nosnibor (@croupier1970) reported from Blackpool, England

    @virginmedia I've just filled I the feedback form with a zero. No one called back and it is now 4 hours since the call. Our Internet (wifi) is working after being without all day & on and off over previous 24 hours. Just awful service. Truly our worst experience ever!!!

  • Fee_McCarthy Fiona C. MacCarthy (@Fee_McCarthy) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia yep me back again. Guess what? My parents have no service again! Or anyone else in their vicinity of UB5 😡 2nd time this week 😡 I’d never have let them signup if I had known #smoothtalkingsalesrep #falsepromises #vulnerablecustomers

  • BritBoxHelpUK BritBox Help UK (@BritBoxHelpUK) reported

    @skp20040 @BritBox_UK Sorry you haven't heard back from us. The answer to your question, if you are subscription to Amazon Prime then you should be able to get Britbox as an add on using thier app on any device, such as Sky or VirginMedia. The content is mirrored on their service. I hope this helps.

  • _teecarts tia🦕 (@_teecarts) reported

    virgin media wanna sort their **** out and install our wifi🤬

  • BlancaSainz2 Blanca Sainz-Garcia (@BlancaSainz2) reported

    No wifi again since at least 1pm and no resolution till at least 9am tomorrow. @virginmedia this is second time this month. Do something about it!

  • ThatHollowGuy Jack 🏳️‍🌈 (@ThatHollowGuy) reported

    Hi @virginmedia, are you guys aware of broadband not working in the TW12 2DE postcode? Getting absolutely no wifi for a few hours now

  • vik_c Victoria (@vik_c) reported

    @virginmedia What a disappointing experience. Spoke to someone, complete shambles with my account, got taken through options and then was promised a call back - which never came, again. Honestly a complete joke of an experience as a new customer!

  • Mikey1981 Mikey1981 フィッシャーマイク (@Mikey1981) reported
