  • AG_Developer
    Arek Kwapis (@AG_Developer) reported from Falkirk, Scotland

    Come on @virginmedia, this is getting ridiculous now. Been without Internet for over 24hrs - ever since yesterday's maintenance at 9am. Still not got my Oomph unlimited data to help ease the pain either and no ETA on fix. This is beyond silly.

    @virginmedia No, only on certain channels (5 HD being the worst) there seems be a static interference. The box is very old so not sure if it is compatible anymore

    Steve (@steve2theizzO) reported from Falkirk, Scotland

    What is the best way to speak to someone at @virginmedia as I've spent close to 2 hours this week trying to get through. Appreciate the issues due to covid but I urgently need to speak to someone since my bill has suddenly increased and I have no way to sort this atm

  • cubsi1
    Robert McCubbing (@cubsi1) reported from Bo’ness, Scotland

    FFS @virginmedia please sort out your customer service. After finally getting through to change my package, I was put on hold again and transferred to another department. I hung up after 1 hour on hold!!! Think I’ll just cancel and take my business elsewhere

  • AG_Developer
    Arek Kwapis (@AG_Developer) reported from Falkirk, Scotland

    Sorry folks for the very sudden end of stream, @virginmedia is doing works in my area and that means until 2024, every 4th of the month my inet will go down. Today and 2 days ago where exceptions to prepare for the works. Sorry folks!

  • StephenMcAtDell
    Stephen McLaughlin (@StephenMcAtDell) reported from Carluke, Scotland

    @virginmedia Hi team. Can anyone help with this please? Is there a number I can call to speak to someone?

  • duklaprm
    paul macready (@duklaprm) reported from Broxburn, Scotland

    @SkyUK would love skyglass right now. Will u pay my early exit contract fees from @virginmedia so I can end this hellish service before christmas. Thanks.

  • AG_Developer
    Arek Kwapis (@AG_Developer) reported from Falkirk, Scotland

    @virginmedia Unfortunately no. I've spoken to multiple agents all day and an engineer is scheduled for tomorrow. If it isn't intermittent outage, it's a massive speed decrease (currently getting 50Mbps down/3Mbps up on a Gig1 line, usually 800Mbps down/55Mbps up)

  • Lomondsmum
    Angela Kyle (@Lomondsmum) reported from Wishaw, Scotland

    @virginmedia Thank you again for your reply and your help. I would actually like to speak to someone in a UK office tomorrow please. How do I go about this?

  • DarrellB91
    Darrell Anne Atkins (@DarrellB91) reported from Livingston, Scotland

    Trying to deal with @virginmedia on behalf of my Gran is one of the most frustrating things. All we want to do is downgrade her package and I've been passed to so many different people. I bet they would keep you on the phone if you wanted to cancel!

    Paula ❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@scottishchicp) reported from Broxburn, Scotland

    @scuj1 @virginmedia Oh never thought of that!

  • Krisfozz1
    Kris Montgomery (@Krisfozz1) reported from Inverkeithing, Scotland

    @virginmedia I’m trying to watch my programming but it keeps coming up that my internet is too slow! 😟 I’ve only had Virgin for 2 months and this isn’t the first time. I was told by the rep that Virgins Internet was the best! Can you help please.

  • sneekyb
    Richard Law (@sneekyb) reported from East Calder, Scotland

    @virginmedia Ridiculous that as a existing customer now out of contract that I cannot be offered the same monthly deal as new customers. My bill is to rise by £50 pcm which is not acceptable. I ask if I can take your Bigger tv bundle with sports as advertised for £72 and told no.

  • DaveRutt2
    Dave Rutt (@DaveRutt2) reported

    @virginmedia can you help your call centres are useless!!! My sister has moved house as she and her husband are divorced and she has no contact with him. The ac is in his name , but she pays for it. All she wants is the ac to be in her name .. why is this so hard to do 🤬 ?

  • Graelwyn
    Pure Hearted Human (@Graelwyn) reported

    @GoonerJo2201 @virginmedia It doesn't matter much now. As I intend to take my life as what virgin media don't know. Is that my mother and father abused me most of my life. And maybe since I never got her unconditional love as she loved only through money. I wanted to use the only thing she gives me now. Since she wouldn't call virgin to explain. As she cares more about my brother's partner's mother having cancer. Than that I may have cancer. So virgin media get their payments. And I have finally given up. That is all.

    Craig (@wolve585) reported

    What a joke @virginmedia are! 2 weeks, twice "the system isn't working", 3 times been promised call backs to sort the account of my dad who has passed away and nothing! As if its not a hard enough time as it is! I was going to keep the account but this has made me want to cancel!

  • stephenm68
    Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported

    Day 35 of absolutely no services from @virginmedia and no useful information about when/if the outage in our area will ever get fixed. Let’s hope that @guardian Consumer Champions will look into this - I’ve just written to them. @Ofcom

  • Seren_7
    Seren 7 (@Seren_7) reported

    @virginmedia your online chat to us hasn’t worked for over 6 weeks. I have only been able to cancel today after being on a 1 hour call. Please advise when my account will be credited?

    @virginmedia neither myself nor my husband have received any emails today (we have ntlworld email addresses) and even ones we've sent to ourselves from other accounts haven't come through. Is there an issue with emails?
