  @virginmedia any chance you can get your website to work? Change Package Chat does nothing! Links sent via mail do not work! Hyperlink sent by text doesn’t work! Call centre (working from home in India?) worse than useless! Ever heard of Customer Centric design? #Useless

  @virginmedia No as I look after an elderly lady with parkinsons on Thursdays which means she doesn't get to get out of the house if I don't see her. So it's booked in for Friday. What help doninhave till then? Or reimbursement? I'm free every day after 3pm & I'm free Tuesday all day

  @virginmedia A number of times. But let’s be honest, they’re nothing but messengers. There is no escalation, and they can’t even call the construction company to escalate issues. As someone who has worked within many projects teams, and mapped business processes, yours is simply shocking

  @virginmedia 11/ I've never been 6 days without internet and help was much more available in the past with virgin. Now, customers are being left high and dry.

  . @virginmedia down yet again? Not able to watch On Demand and error messages. Plus their website is down. 🙄

• 
  Nick Miller 🇺🇦 (@NickMillerUK) reported 17 minutes ago from South Ockendon, England

  @virginmedia It’s everything downstream of the LAN ports, so wifi on the box is on and working but all his wired network is offline. I have asked him to check all the cabling to make sure it’s all connected.

  Gerry (@guinnessaddick) reported 29 minutes ago from Dartford, England

  @thorogodies @Missbwattie @virginmedia We don’t have many problems with ours, surprised you do, as you’re only round the corner, must be a box problem.

  DragonFish 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇮🇹 (@discobabe76) reported 30 minutes ago from Sutton at Hone, England

  @virginmedia 8/ have to pay if it came down to a third party router intimating that the fault was mine. No appointment till Thursday! I tried to explain that I care for an elderly lady and he wouldn't let me speak and kept interrupting me which was incredibly rude. I advised him to let me

  Nancy S (@mizznansea) reported 35 minutes ago from Aveley, England

  @virginmedia I've been having problems with my phoneline and it is currently dead, can't make or receive calls. An engineer came on Friday but its still not working. Charges have been appearing on my phone bill for calls I have not made. This has happened twice since November.

  DragonFish 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇮🇹 (@discobabe76) reported 39 minutes ago from Sutton at Hone, England

  @virginmedia 4/ I work from home so asked what can I do in the meantime? No help given. I asked to speak to a supervisor. Waited 15 mins to speak to Supervisor ( 45 mins total already spent on phone)..

  rachel Wheelhouse 🇺🇦 (@RWheelhouse1) reported 39 minutes ago from Chelmsford, England

  @virginmedia 6 days since moving to Virgin, we are having issues, the WiFi won't reach our outside cameras. After completing the troubleshooting guides + waiting for over an hour for a chat agent + 30 mins on the phone, we still haven't spoken to a human....not impressed

  Katie Williams (@katie_2521) reported 39 minutes ago from Wickford, England

  @virginmedia I had already look at this page previously. And when we have issues there is no indication on what it could be, I. E the *********** light is in as if its connected

  grizzly_gooner (@GoonerGrizzly) reported 51 minutes ago 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.

  Mark Connolly (@macon1375) reported 55 minutes ago from Crayford, England

  @virginmedia Hah really @virginmedia been trying live chat since 8am and now call but on hold for ages!! Is not on. Causing issues with my work!! #worstbroadband

• 
  Nancy S (@mizznansea) reported 55 minutes ago from Aveley, England

  So trying to cancel @virginmedia services and the stalling tactics being used are not cool. If customers want to leave they have every right to do so. Let them go.

  Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Andrew007Uk) reported 55 minutes ago from Sutton at Hone, England

  After a mammoth session on the phone to 6 of your departments to arrange interim broadband given your service failed in Nov. & won't be fixed to March I spoke to a helpful chap called David in the Customer Care Dept before I was cut off. Can you help reconnect me @virginmedia 🙏🏻

  Derek (@derekryan2026) reported 7 minutes ago

  @john_mcguirk Matt cooper is boring. He lacks a personality. His left progressive woke conversation is predictable and monotonous. At least you and Sarah speak your minds. The odd bad language is thrown in but we get a different view on your show. RTE,virgin media , bla bla bla

• 
  Chris (@ChrisLew300) reported 7 minutes ago

  @VictorMeldrew77 @virginmedia Ensure you register the outage on their website, then you might get compensation.

• 
  keith addy (@ads913) reported 8 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I understand they're introductory, but the gap is £51/month for the identical package. That's not a normal "new customer discount" that's a loyalty penalty. What can you actually offer me?

• 
  Some-Nick1976 (@Some_Nick1976) reported 10 minutes ago

  @virginmedia It happens almost every evening from around 8pm to 9.30pm. It is also quite poor on a Sunday afternoon for a number of hours.

  @_Cheebiez I literally moved from virgin media to a different provider last year for this exact problem. Honestly they’re a joke!!

• 
  Tweetledumb (@xueshang) reported 12 minutes ago

  @libertyglobal please ask @virginmedia why they sent me a replacement TV box without any remote to control it. (Finally they say will send one to reach me "in 5 business days" while I keep paying for the service throughout this time!) #virginmedia

  STEPHEN (@stevied151181) reported 14 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I've just had a lovely chat with Kameer to renew my contract. He was polite, friendly and helpful. Please make sure he's praised for his customer service. 5🌟

  @MIKEYJ0726 @virginmedia @skytv Me too mate. Eye watering prices and crap customer service aren’t a great combination but it’s one that Virgin seem to prefer. Sky here I come and I don’t care if it costs me more..

• 
  Steph (@StephyCoops) reported 17 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I have missed every single England game due to the crap service from virgin media. 3 days of no internet last week supposedly fixed but goes down again today. I work from home and I’m totally fed up with it.
