    @virginmedia we are without internet now for over a day. No text updates despite registering what can be done about such poor service

  • pBullox
    Paul Bullock (@pBullox) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia No real explanation, just he can’t do it today. I was surprised he already knew of the problem but didn’t stop his installer coming. I spoke to lots of folks today when I called, no one could give me an idea.

    @virginmedia Hi yes I’ve done this numerous times and spoken to many people on chat and always been told I will get a call to discuss and I never hear back. I just want someone to look into why we cannot get it but it’s available on our road. Thanks

    Tom Hogan (@TheTomothy) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia better have a good explanation for this but likely this will never be answered and all my years of bills and loyalty mean absolutely sod all. @bt_uk and @SkyHelpTeam Any good deals on broadband? And can you promise you wont vandalise my home & connection randomly?

  • mmaaccss
    Macsi (@mmaaccss) reported from Wokingham, England

    Wanted to watch YT on #VirginMedia to see TSMGO: Phantom of the Opera but dear it is down at the moment! Unacceptable!

  • Hello_HWC
    The HWC (@Hello_HWC) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Slow speed Constantly dropping service Not able to connect devices, TV and computers To be fair your engineer was the best bit! The rest was an absolute shambles. It’s all in a complaint I have through on your website to the resolution team...

  • AfroChuck87
    Dan 🇪🇺 #TitanUp (@AfroChuck87) reported from Basingstoke, England

    . Why have you hung up on be after being on hold after 40 minutes. Your customer service is an absolute disgrace. You should be ashamed. @virginmedia

    @virginmedia Not great, it never is really.

  • richcon98
    Richard Conway (@richcon98) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia I have to say @virginmedia are one of the worst companies to contact if you have an issue. Their message system is a joke and accounts a shambles. @skyuk is looking a better prospect!!!!

    🇬🇧🔥 FIRE is awesome 😎 (@GrahamCompton) reported

    @CompoundingISA @MartinSLewis @ao Such short sighted customer service experience. I's like dealing with Virgin Media 10 years ago. I had to tell them 2-3 times that yes, I really did want to cancel. Thankfully, I was only on hold for a few minutes.

  • _DundeePerfect_
    A.Brown (@_DundeePerfect_) reported

    @robhinds @virginmedia I have never been told I need anything other than broadband.... even if do decide to have a home phone that now plugs right in to the router.

  • dannog_8
    Dan (@dannog_8) reported

    Remind me again why I pay Virgin Media monthly for a service that works whenever it feels like it?

  • je_durrant
    James Durrant (@je_durrant) reported

    I’ve had it with @virginmedia No service since 10 Jul and it won’t be fixed until 17 Aug. They can’t give me a 5G modem despite being joined with O2 and say I should be happy with the £10 p/d Ofcom comp; that doesn’t help me do work. £800 to cancel my contract, it’s a racket

    @virginmedia hi. Can you advise why my internet is so poor at 5 York House Leeds LS28 5DE?

  • Jamaal162
    Jamaal (@Jamaal162) reported

    @jonoread @ajzxne They knew owned and run by the same company.. virgin media 02… literally just a subsidiary branded to capture a different market ie the ones who are smart enough to not pay 3 to 4x the amount for the same service

  • harryvek
    Horatio Bullwinkle (@harryvek) reported

    @virginmedia Why do your customer services call me every day when I've told them I'm not interested in taking any more services than I already have. Just today I took a call and told them to stop calling me, no one answered on the other side and then just hung up, how rude !!!.

    @virginmedia I've just sent a message & X told me there was a problem & my message would be saved. I'm hoping you receive it soon.

  • reversebrexit22
    John (@reversebrexit22) reported

    @virginmedia I have issues with my hub dropping out. I’ve done all of the checks and waited on the chat for 20 mins for a “customer support “ individual to drop off after 5 minutes because I didn’t respond with 10 seconds of him asking a question. I have screen shots as proof
