  • JamesMarsh1974 James Marsh (@JamesMarsh1974) reported from Crayford, England

    @virginmedia You are, as ever, not admitting any service issues. Have run your tests through the site and restarted my entire home network.

  • NickAnstead Nick Anstead (@NickAnstead) reported from London, England

    Predictably depressing experience calling @virginmedia to cancel contract this afternoon. *On hold for several mins. * Offered £2 off contract monthly by automated answer phone message when I navigate through phone menus saying I want to leave. Say no on touchpad.

  • Garrardinho Gary Lager (@Garrardinho) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Can you arrange for one of them to call me tomorrow to resolve as it's a very simple issue but not one I can sort out through your automated service and I don't appreciate being messed about because someone's near the end of their shift.

  • shazthechef sharron killick (@shazthechef) reported from Dartford, England

    @virginmedia Have tested my equipment and there are no problems...have check that's all leads are secure..I've just got problems with the recordings on my box

  • FoxSlfox sharon fox (@FoxSlfox) reported from Grays, England

    @virginmedia What is wrong with the broadband having no problem for days even weeks but no service at all now . Hope we will be refunded for service that not being provided

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

    @virginmedia last Friday I was on hold for 1 hr before being cut off. Tonight I’m trying again to arrange an engineer 2 come 2 my hse to sort lack of BB coverage. So far I’ve been waiting 44 mins as I’ve just upgraded I think I’ll action the cooling off period and can’t service

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

    @virginmedia thanks again to the #wankers @virginmedia who cut me off again after 1 hour and 2 mins. So by way of a payback if I don’t get a call in the next two hours I’ll cancel my DD and you can ******* stick your service you your shitty arse!!!!!!!

  • marvelreid83 Darren Reid (@marvelreid83) reported from Romford, England

    I start off in a good mood until I speak to @virginmedia customer services! Never understand me so never get my issues resolved! Seriously!!!! 🤬🤬

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

    Internet from @virginmedia cut out every day for the last at least 2 weeks. Customer service is abysmal. Bye.

  • abivedder Abi ن (@abivedder) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia still no internet. Very annoying Saturday evening. I have done every single thing advised, have it plugged in by Ethernet at the moment but it still is not working 🤬🤬

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

    @virginmedia Don’t give a shit what your code is if I don’t get the service you don’t get my money

  • danidelavega Dani (@danidelavega) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia shocking WIFI service, well, lack of, two days in a row. Sort out or I’m going back to Sky. You cannot treat customers like this. Embarrassing

  • Amanda_Davey12 Amanda Davey (@Amanda_Davey12) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I find it insulting that you infer it is a problem my end! Once again, the level of customer care is dreadful, and no fixing of the actual problem that we pay a monthly premium for!

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

    @virginmedia By the way. 150 not working

  • Amanda_Davey12 Amanda Davey (@Amanda_Davey12) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia The link was broken, I have made a complaint online, you do have my phone number however, as our technology provider, someone should have called!

  • JamesMarsh1974 James Marsh (@JamesMarsh1974) reported from Crayford, England

    @virginmedia Just check area 22 for problems, please.

  • Amanda_Davey12 Amanda Davey (@Amanda_Davey12) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately the guy just put the phone down on me and that link is not working!

  • abivedder Abi ن (@abivedder) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia please help, my box won’t work, I can’t watch anything, been sat here for over an hour trying to fix it. So fed up with virgin internet.

  • FoxSlfox sharon fox (@FoxSlfox) reported from Grays, England

    @richstrickland @LDNPeter I usually connect to virgin media, but always have to sign in, and for some reason every time at Wanstead it says I'm not registered

    @virginmedia I have no internet AGAIN!! FFS!! For the last 2days.I am in area 21 can you tell me if anything is being done to rectify the issue. Piss poor service

  • LariWestSide Larissa (@LariWestSide) reported

    @virginmedia This morning/last night there were other lights, but now it’s only ever the power light. I see on your website there is now a known issue in our postcode. Curiously the internet is back at the moment! Will write again if this persists even after the engineer fix in neighbourhood

  • arcampbell1998 Adam Campbell (@arcampbell1998) reported

    @virginmedia We could do with a solid explanation as to why our broadband has been down for an entire week rather than 'maintenance' or 'upgrades'?

  • MickyB60443382 MickyB (@MickyB60443382) reported

    @virginmedia After been cut off twice by your call centre staff on Thursday no one has rang my dad back to resolve the issue. He has rebooted his system but the Internet signal always drops intermittently. He is now looking at alternative solutions as virgin seems to have no customer care.

  • Simeseysimes Forbes McAllister 💙 (@Simeseysimes) reported

    @virginmedia This just proves that you're not interested in my issue. I was talking to the girl for 2 hours. In that time she went on a 15 minute break and told me that I should have received a response. She did pass it on to someone else but I'd given up by then as it had been 3 hours.

  • ls_1983 Lee Stewart (@ls_1983) reported

    @virginmedia love how unreliable your service is, down again! All since you upped your prices? What a crock of ****

  • xjle_x Jessica Lee (@xjle_x) reported

    @virginmedia are an absolute joke of a company 40 minutes on hold 4 agents who don’t have a clue what they’re doing to put me back on hold and put the phone down!!!

  • Teaching_MrsE Mrs_E (@Teaching_MrsE) reported

    @Eve_McKenzie_x @tbradman @virginmedia They're crap anyway.

  • bonchster Donna Osborn 💙 (@bonchster) reported

    @mrs_crimboSBM @virginmedia I had this exact problem a couple of years ago. Their customer service is appaling. I didn’t bother in the end and stayed with Sky. I honestly could not believe their attitude and incompetence

  • kenket1 Kenny Kettings (@kenket1) reported

    @virginmedia It's been down for 10 days now. A pop up appears when I open it up asking for my password. I input it then nothing. If I use the browser it directs me to a page saying my email is not available at the moment.
