  • traceylambert69 Tracey Lambert (@traceylambert69) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia Yes there is a fault and it seems your telephone person could not tell us this.....disgusting service.

  • anna0898 Anna Bellwood (@anna0898) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia WiFi down all day twice this month! What is going on! This girl needs to work 🤓

  • andycairns Andy Cairns (@andycairns) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia No issues. Ran the test and it didn’t find anything either. Still no internet. Wired and WiFi devices.

  • candylion5 Sam Hicks (@candylion5) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia We’ve already called and you’ve said you haven’t had the request so I don’t see how calling again will help. Sky have told us they have requested it. Have seen numerous accounts of you blocking number ports to Sky so I’m not surprised. Pretty outrageous.

  • MrGarySmith Gary Brian Smith (@MrGarySmith) reported from Dartford, England

    @virginmedia Although your Aim is not to deliver a shockingly bad customer experience it’s what your customer services team are only capable of delivering... repeatedly... can you put in a request to get me a call back or give me a postal address as this may be quicker to put In a request.

  • niallthorpe08 Niall Thorpe (@niallthorpe08) reported from London, England

    So we’ve waited 4 weeks for @virginmedia to install our TV and WiFi, telling us it’s been in the flat before, they get here finally and say it’s never been in the flat and we can’t have it! So they’ve left and we’re back to square one....

  • nerrad1964 Darren Tobin (@nerrad1964) reported from Crayford, England

    @virginmedia contacted Virgin customer services on 22nd October to terminate broadband contract( 1 month notice). I was assured I would receive an email to confirm termination-nothing received. Heard this happens a lot and then Virgin challenge-pls sort.

  • anna0898 Anna Bellwood (@anna0898) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia There is an issue in my area. Expected time for the issue to be resolved is four hours away 🙄

  • iamBazSR3rs PORSCHE GT3,Juno Man,Jap Crap,Car Lover, Golfer (@iamBazSR3rs) reported from Runwell, England

    @virginmedia We are TOO BUSY to take your call,maybe ill be TOO BUSY to pay the BILL,absolutely useless pathetic service 😡

  • selman1979 matt (@selman1979) reported from Thundersley, England

Virgin will send a letter 2months backdated in 4 months wanting a response to allegation , minewhile oftcom close it as out of time .. literally virgin cost me a fortune damaging drive / lost work - promised refund never did

  • MrGarySmith Gary Brian Smith (@MrGarySmith) reported from Dartford, England

    @virginmedia Not really when I don’t even get the reply from you team I’ve been waiting for for a week. How about concentrating on the service you’re MEANT to be supplying. You can’t service the customers yiuve got let alone any new ones!!! Fuckwits!

  • lorihaleyfox Lori Haley Fox (@lorihaleyfox) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Thanks JJ - another customer service rep contacted me and the problem has been resolved. Unfortunately the first adviser was misinformed! Thank you!

  • alansbrown alan brown (@alansbrown) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia It's the router signal is not strong and stable enough as have had several engineers here and they have said the same so lots of money for poor service :-(

  • theonionlives James Campbell (@theonionlives) reported from London, England

  • gav_walsh21 Gavin Walsh (@gav_walsh21) reported

    @virginmedia WiFi down in Dublin 15, any ideas when it’ll be back online? Hopefully not the roadworks outside🥲

  • beardedian Ian Roberts - The Beard (@beardedian) reported

    @DavidCollinge1 @virginmedia They switched the phone line off at 5.30 this morning. An emergency home help alarm went off as a result

  • dawnduffy dawnduffy (@dawnduffy) reported

    @virginmedia No internet again. Lost internet for an hour yesterday and been down on and off for 30 mins now. Can’t work from home, can’t leave the house due to covid - great….Service Status says no issues….

  • xMaria_Daleyx Cocoa Love (@xMaria_Daleyx) reported

    @virginmedia broadband is honestly terrible. It’s really making it near enough impossible for me to work from home. What am I paying for ?

  • ktf1965 Dagenham Man (@ktf1965) reported

    @KevinAtp @virginmedia @virginmedia service is abismal, continues to be good & then bad. Had an unusable service for nearly a year whilst they supposedly did upgrades was no better when they finished. They know they have the monopoly so you have no choice if you want fast broadband & feel lucky

  • KevinHornsby20 Kevin Hornsby (@KevinHornsby20) reported

    @virginmedia Could be 5 days for the PSU, 3 calls/6 hours later and hub 3 still not working

  • FazFk31 faz K (@FazFk31) reported

    @virginmedia I have not come back to you through choice, I am currently shopping around for a better deal and hopefully better customer service, all you have done is prolong the process without offering a solution...I'm not surprised with your total unprofessionalism.

  • beardedian Ian Roberts - The Beard (@beardedian) reported

    You would think @virginmedia would have a process to cancel a home landline where someone is moving to a premise they don't supply. Different people saying different things, either no charge because out of contract, or over £100 due even though out of contract.

  • Andypeep Andy Pugsley (@Andypeep) reported

    @virginmedia I have checked only problem is about a sck channel

  • OGormanCarmel #HelloMyNameisCarmel💙 (@OGormanCarmel) reported

    @virginmedia We've been waiting since Fri 10th & have absolutely NO idea if or when the @virginmedia parcel will ever arrive via @YodelOnline There can be no resolution without the succesful installation of broadband!!
