    @MartinSLewis Virgin Media wifi been unstable since June 2020. Virgin Media never resolved the problem caused me to lose hundreds of £'s. Made me lose my PIP. Virgin made me pay double because they kept charging me twice most months. They've made me lose half my PC Guarantee

    @virginmedia hope you can help please! Our router is a hub 3. It has a constant red light. It’s not over heating, I’ve done multiple hard resets. Any suggestions? Do I need a new router?

    @virginmedia I have spoken to your CS team about raising a complaint and have been told that the complaints procedure is for existing customers. As I am yet to go live, I am not considered a customer and therefore have no where to go.

    @virginmedia Your link says it can’t find any issues, there are issues. Can you advise if it’s being investigated? What’s the eta? Thanks.

    @virginmedia I’ve sorted the issue. But now there’s no way of cancelling the engineer! Can’t get through on phone. Appointment isn’t showing on their account, so can’t cancel there. WhatsApp is useless - been waiting for an Agent to be available since about 1pm!

    @virginmedia My phone is now over two weeks late, which isn’t an issue, I understand waiting for one to become available to send but to suggest I send this phone back and go without a phone until one eventually gets sent to me is just ridiculous. I’m not gonna pay my bills with no phone…

  • mizznansea
    Nancy S (@mizznansea) reported from Aveley, England

    @TracyWoodley4 @virginmedia @Virgin Their service has certainly gone down hill and this issue with the call centre is a complete farce. If they can't even get their own internal systems sorted as a telecomms company what hope do we have? My contract is up in March and I will defo be leaving Virgin.

    @virginmedia Hi VM, I ordered a replacement remote control for my TIVO box. Just realised that was a couple of months ago but it never came. When trying online again it says as I’ve had one within six months I can’t order another. Please check that the first was ever sent, thanks

  • _Lewis_A

    So @virginmedia want £288 to cancel a contract I've had since 2018. Can I get through to anyone to speak about it? NO!!

  • GoonerGrizzly
    grizzly_gooner (@GoonerGrizzly) reported from Thundersley, England

    @virginmedia This seems to be the standard message coming from Virgin Media. “Computer says no”. If you can’t see the issue with this then you (Virgin Media) are the problem. I’m inclined to contact the ombudsman as you have sold me a service which you blatantly cannot provide or install.

  • tonyps1977
    Tony Patis-Stannard (@tonyps1977) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia your service is shocking and spent 40mins on the phone to be told you can’t connect my call and to try again, you have my contact details get in touch with me as I want to speak to someone about the service I’m not getting…

    @virginmedia I’m going into my 5 week of problems with this crap company they say they will investigate but nothing, no compensation nothing.

  • eviemae239
    Ben Rogers (@eviemae239) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia wi-fi down yet again for about the 5th time this week. Constantly going down over last few weeks as well, absolute shambles.

  • wonky1961
    Penny Rolfe nee Acres (@wonky1961) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia You are no longer my ISP due to your incompetence. Also there will be a lawsuit pending due to the fact I almost died from pneumonia with pulmonary oedema and sepsis later going into stage 2 respiratory failure. Your useless service is unacceptable.

    @virginmedia No issues... I need to speak to someone I've tried everything... Reboot, reset and nothing is working

    Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @PaulWelsh_UK @virginmedia There is no service. 26 November reported - 6th March earliest date for works. I was past to no less than 6 different teams before finally getting somewhere and then being cut off. Anyway welcome home my friend - hope you have more luck than me!

  • 1CreativeRay
    Dr Stower and the Stock Market of Madness 🦍 (@1CreativeRay) reported from Wainscott, England

    @virginmedia Terrible service from you these last two weeks! I have spent more than 4hrs on the phone to Asian based O2, and Virgin call centres who never help or process things. Also Capita in South Africa… Why do you use foreign call centres if they cannot do the job!!

    @virginmedia getting 100mb a second on your gigabyte package and was told there was issues. Was escalated to the complaints team who advised nothing is wrong! Shocking customer service even when it was acknowledged its nowhere near what im paying for

  • entrustTMF
    entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported

    @status_is_down Yes, @virginmedia broadband is down for me currently. Been down nearly all day now

    @indepdubnrth @Jklunden Yes Virgin media and newstalk just as bad

  • debbym
    Debs 😇 (@debbym) reported

    @virginmedia I have been a customer for over 20 years and been told today that my monthly bill will go from £141 to £213 when my current contract expires in May. I don’t know how you get away with such an increase for loyal customers. I shall NOT be renewing my contract 🤬

  • pri_janes
    P4J (@pri_janes) reported

    @virginmedia is there an issue in the TS15 area? How is one to doom scroll on TikTok efficiently with no internets?

  • saabturbocab
    russell elphick (@saabturbocab) reported

    @virginmedia The team were awful, offered£25 and you took £900 over 4 months. Shameful.

  • pepetideo
    CrankyGeek (@pepetideo) reported

    @virginmedia ok... here is some feedback. Fire the person that has thought aquirering new customers is more important than keeping the ones you got and rewarding them. Secondly fire the person that is handeling disconnections. They singlehandely made me a never again costumer. You could not pay me to return

  • Misterpinkcat
    mrpinkcat (@Misterpinkcat) reported

    @virginmedia @GlitteringAngel Katie shouldn't have to send you a DM, just treat loyalty with some respect and give people discounts the longer they stay with you instead of giving newbies better deals than long standing customers

  • entrustTMF
    entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported

    @robert_mackley @virginmedia Thanks for that. Need to do some serious thinking about whether to stay with @virginmedia at end of this contract as this experience has been very, very poor indeed. Communications have been awful (apart from one person that at least appeared to empathise). Been with them years
