  • safdar Safdar Mustafa (@safdar) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia My WIFI is unbearable and affects my day of online meetings. I’ve done the usual troubleshooting and have your app too. Calling your support is useless and I can’t get through to a human. What do I need to do to resolve my issues? Message your CEO?

  • a1_nos A1NOS (@a1_nos) reported from Abingdon, England

    @CloopR @virginmedia Also had a huge issue with Together Energy who owed me £500 and wouldn’t pay it. Eventually contacted finance lady at Daily Mail who contacted them and I got my money. Will dig her details out if I can. She was very helpful.

  • Hoopsjackal Mark Crossley (@Hoopsjackal) reported from Wheatley, England

    @virginmedia I was promised a call back within 24 hrs on Saturday, still nothing. Problems with TV and Broadband, can u please arrange an engineer urgently

  • Malders Nick Malden (@Malders) reported from Godstow, England

    @virginmedia No difference with hub factory reset as a router with other router switched off. Green internet light flashing on the hub. Message Problem connecting to the internet on 192.168.1.1.

  • Neeknowsbest Kim (@Neeknowsbest) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia Hi. I have has my your chat open for 24 hours, sent a text message 36 hours ago and no response to either. As a new customer, with a query, this is not a good start.

  • LisaMarieHeenan Lisa-Marie Cuthbertson (@LisaMarieHeenan) reported from Reading, England

    Hi @virginmedia can you please check service RG31 as all services are down, the online check confirms the status is down but only option is book an engineer for Tuesday, does that mean I can expect no TV or Internet until then?

  • bettyjo62 Betty Jo Workman (@bettyjo62) reported from Abingdon, England

    @DailyMailUK #virginmedia such a bad service

  • SmithRodwsmith1 Rodney Smith (@SmithRodwsmith1) reported from Cumnor, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I got through & they ran some tests & everything was fine(:-) but it was suggested that maybe there is some Network maintenance somewhere & that when it’s completed the Top Green Flashing light on the Router will go back to normal🤞🙏👍

  • a1_nos A1NOS (@a1_nos) reported from Abingdon, England

    @CloopR @virginmedia Just horrid. I had the same problem with Vodafone. In the end the only way I resolved it was a good friend was golfing buddies with the CEO otherwise I don’t think I’d have sorted it.

  • JurassicGarden Char (@JurassicGarden) reported from Didcot, England

    The worst part of Lockdown wasn't the loneliness, the boredom or the agitation. It was seeing ******* Birdseye, McCain's and Virgin Media shoving happy family lockdown vibes down your throat to advertise themselves.

  • djmessyxjessy Jessica Boshier (@djmessyxjessy) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia why do you keep hanging up on your help line thatwere on hold for, for 30 minutes a time. Answer and help

  • timmorgan Tim Morgan (@timmorgan) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia what's the best department to get My Virgin Media support? I am a customer and it won't let me register an account using my email address although my bill is sent to the same email.

  • djmessyxjessy Jessica Boshier (@djmessyxjessy) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia why do we keep getting cut off from your help line when you’re saying your going to block my mums phone. Answer!!!!

  • Malders Nick Malden (@Malders) reported from Godstow, England

    @virginmedia down in oxford again. Ox2 8pg

  • BobBeveridge1 Bob Beveridge (@BobBeveridge1) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Yes I have explained all this before. Is there any point? My recent issue was with the pathetic final letter, now combined with the fact that your system is so poor you know nothing about this. Totally poor customer experience.

  • HaiderAlRekabi Haider Al-Rekabi (@HaiderAlRekabi) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia stop calling me and try to sell me something i already have with you. I think your trying too hard. I already have the full package for tv that i don't use, highest available Broadband. never use the landline and 4 Sim accounts. and still. You want to zell me more!

  • tomasquith93 Tom Asquith (@tomasquith93) reported from Twyford, England

    @virginmedia The only detail I’ve had is as follows and it’s hardly detailed. Please can someone tell me what is the issue and where, with timescales. “Hi, it's Virgin Media here. The installation is kept on hold due to construction issue.”

  • tomasquith93 Tom Asquith (@tomasquith93) reported from Twyford, England

    @virginmedia I’ve called, but that provided no help. I was told I’d get a callback from a team closer to the issue in 24 hours - which has since passed. Honestly, not a good start and I’ve not got service yet!

  • HaiderAlRekabi Haider Al-Rekabi (@HaiderAlRekabi) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia and any chance someone replying to my message via app? I waiting for 50 minutes now. I have broadband down since 18:00 RG2.

  • SmithRodwsmith1 Rodney Smith (@SmithRodwsmith1) reported from Cumnor, England

    @virginmedia Hi I downloaded the latest Update for my Apple Phone & ever since then when i click on my Virginmedia Hub3 my phone says it’s connected to the network but has weak security I’ve never known it to say that before😱

    @virginmedia why doni keep getting calls from you on this number only for someone to hang up? 03303035309

  • JessicaaaE Jessica Herrmann (@JessicaaaE) reported

    @virginmedia At home and out and about. Yes, the data is poor and yes I am able to connect to the WiFi.

  • madebydbm DBM Motion Graphics (@madebydbm) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks. Looks like the issue is still being worked on.

  • BohnFifty Bohn (@BohnFifty) reported

    @virginmedia I mean personally I'm going to switch to a more efficient and faster ISP because this just made me massively lose faith in the company's capabilities, and as little a difference that may make, it's still a consumer lost, £350 per annum lost from 1 customer, what if it was 1000?

  • clarke004028 Edward Clark (@clarke004028) reported

    @virginmedia I can only assume this is a tactic to attempt to get me not to cancel. Absolutely terrible service.

  • AvocetKeith Keith Wilkins (@AvocetKeith) reported

    @virginmedia Apparently, VM couldnt take a direct debit from the same bank account it has been calling from for the last 2 years..... No details have changed except the ridiculously high monthly package charge and all they can do is cancel the late fee charge... #switchtoSkyASAP

  • UmyKhan_ Umair Khan (@UmyKhan_) reported

    What a horrible service!!. You technician came late after two days to sort the wire then left without internet and your team members are saying the next availability is after 7 days .. @virginmedia @Virgin @AskVirginMoney

  • frontendben Ben Furfie (@frontendben) reported

    @marksuttonbike @virginmedia I feel for you mate. We used to have nothing but headaches with Virgin; and their customer service was trash back then. Outsourced, and powerless. We moved to Sky, and while it's a bit more expensive, anytime we've had an issue, it's been a quick resolution.

  • PiecesofKate Katie Parsons (@PiecesofKate) reported

    @virginmedia It comes up with a known issue when I do it on mobile. It lets me start the process but the button at the end doesn't work.

  • CmdrPauly_C Pauly_C (@CmdrPauly_C) reported

    @virgisnimedia_ this is poor. It’s not even vaguely Virgin is it? This your first time? cc @virginmedia
