    Angela Kyle (@Lomondsmum) reported from Wishaw, Scotland

    @virginmedia @virginmedia done all the usual troubleshooting. Finally got through to customer service and a new hub is being sent out. Initially in 5 days but I escalated it and it’s coming in two. I still find this unsatisfactory though because we need to work from home.

    Dave (@savcabb) reported from Falkirk, Scotland

    Sick of @virginmedia broadband. Constantly goes down for no reason. WiFi glitches but of course you phone and it’s never there fault Not as if it’s cheap either at over £50 a month #timeforachange #frustrated

    @virginmedia Now apparently there’s a non descriptive network problem and my visit for tomorrow is on hold yet your status page says everything is fine...

  • mastermc0
    Grant (@mastermc0) reported from Livingston, Scotland

    @virginmedia any chance of some decent support for the fact I’m having issues with my Hub 4 based broadband your phone service has hung up and directed me to hub 3 based trouble shooting... not the service I expect for my money

  • JillScorer1
    Jill Scorer (@JillScorer1) reported from Dalgety Bay, Scotland

    @lornagilmour_ @virginmedia @SkyUK How to make a complaint via phone. Call us on 150 from your Virgin Media landline or Virgin Mobile. Or 0345 454 1111* from any other phone. WONDER IF THIS WOULD WORK?

  • GemmaaMurphy
    Gem ❤️ (@GemmaaMurphy) reported from Newmains, Scotland

    @virginmedia I honestly don’t know!! My mum has not long got a new mobile and she’s using the WiFi too, I wondered if that was the case! Please help

  • LTJ_79

    @virginmedia I have tried to phone for technical help, sky sports channels not on other room boxes how is this fixed, I pay for full package 😠

    @virginmedia catch up not working ?

  • annabellcoach
    Anna Bell Coaching (@annabellcoach) reported from Bo’ness, Scotland

    @virginmedia Thanks but I've done all that. Website says 'no known issues' but the automated answer message says there are 'complex issues' that engineers are working on. We had an engineer booked yesterday but they called off saying it was fixed. It's not.

  • Haggiskings
    Haggisking💙 (@Haggiskings) reported from Brightons, Scotland

    @virginmedia Hi, is it normal for an agent to call to fix internet problems?I pressurised him on his lack of security, he said do you want good service or to cancel?Then hung up?It’s impossible to communicate with you as a corporate organisation so I’m hoping you tweet?

  • Haggischaser
    Gary Ivady (@Haggischaser) reported from Falkirk, Scotland

    @virginmedia I’ve just had a phone all from a call centre stating it was from virgin media. They were saying that I’m having issues with my internet speed and needed to turn on a computer or device to check my speeds. Is this something that your tech division door is it spam?

  • louham74
    Louise Hamilton (@louham74) reported from Grangemouth, Scotland

    @virginmedia I just phoned again and was told they cannot order for me. So close to just cancelling this shoddy service 🤬

    @leejarrett73 @virginmedia Cancel it, I’m telling ye, it’s murder

    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

  • JusteneEwing
    Justene Ewing (@JusteneEwing) reported from Mid Calder, Scotland

    @brendanf_nss @virginmedia All we need at our house is working Wi-Fi - not looking for VIP service just a working one! 😡 really has made my working day so much harder than it needed to be

  • GDW1807
    Gareth Williamson (@GDW1807) reported

    @virginmedia why send a text saying the issue is fixed, when it isn't?

  • Widget57529543
    Widget (@Widget57529543) reported

    @virginmedia @MichelleBeckett People shouldn't have to post on social media to get decent service from you. Condolences don't cut it when all thats needed is for your numpty call centre staff to have the ability to deal sensitively with the issue. They clearly see your clients as admin not human beings.

  • MalachiJaiEmet
    MalEmet (@MalachiJaiEmet) reported

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK Once had to deal with Virgin Media, absolutely never again. They were impossible to deal with, just got sent from one department to another and it took weeks. Never again.

  • _AnaCristina_

    @virginmedia It's been an outage on and off but now it's outage is fixed I'm still not connected

  • Salfordoriginal

    @virginmedia Obviously a capacity issue and rate throttling going wrong!!!

  • jemonthesofa
    Jem (@jemonthesofa) reported

    @virginmedia Huh, bet that's why we've had rubbish service lately, local toddlers walking past pulling em. It's a monstrosity!

  • clairebaigent
    Claire Shaw (@clairebaigent) reported

    @virginmedia I will not be sending you a private message because despite repeated calls over the past 2 years you have done nothing to help or sort it out. You’re currently charging a 90 yr old man £160 for services he doesn’t use, so please don’t patronise me.

  • Dadyougeek
    JR (@Dadyougeek) reported

    Being told by the customer service team at @virginmedia that if I’m not happy I can cancel my contract after being on hold for an hour and no internet for a week! Oh the joys

  • Samet_UK
    Samet (@Samet_UK) reported

    @virginmedia any news ? Still no any update. It şs still saying there is outage in the area. Are you trying to fix it ? And still I am unable to reach anyone.

    @virginmedia @fluffybubbles73 Over 20 years with NTL/Virgin Media and honest truth, never a real problem. Nothing at all.
