    @virginmedia why are no one answering your lines all I wanna do is cancel my package

    @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

  • 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 contacted customer services for an update on my iPhone 14 Pro Max. I was informed by your Twitter account I wouldn’t need to send my current phone back until I receive my new one. I was then informed by the gentleman on the phone my new phone won’t be sent until I send this

    @virginmedia I'm sorry for the two poor support staff who are trying to sell us new remote controls, routers and O2 sims - for more money - till we hit the nuclear option and say we're leaving to get what we're asking? We're loyal customers; why does it need to get to that?

  • KatiePurkiss

    Virgin Media broadband down AGAIN. Service Status website & app don’t work as no internet connection 🤨 @virginmedia

  • rrrussboy

    @virginmedia I raised the complaint on 14/7 and I’ve heard nothing

    @virginmedia @VMHelpDesk Broadband down in my area, this is frustrating. Reckon it’ll be fixed by 9. No tv & Broadband during the school holidays

  • WhiskyOneIce
    Mark 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@WhiskyOneIce) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia Obviously i don't have proof because your site doesn't say send recorded so why would i, my number was ported in July and I wrote same time, I have no reason to not send letter and you can see from any data usage that I stopped using your service

  • guinnessaddick
    Gerry (@guinnessaddick) reported 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.

    @Mattallwright 2 years on since I have been having trouble with Virgin Media (fingers crossed) they may have now get an uninterrupted supply after charging me late payments more than double my Media prices whilst as a Vulnerable Person they were awful

  • _Lewis_A
    Lewis Allen ⚒ (@_Lewis_A) reported from Romford, England

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

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

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

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

    Listening to the broadband presentation on @itvMLshow with some irony. I pay @virginmedia £79/month for broadband/phone & TV. BB/TV failed in November, after many calls they say it will be fixed in March 2023 😬 Compensation is only calculated when service is restored 😪 Fair?

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

    @virginmedia 9/ speak but he kept interrupting me. He had no help for me for having no internet for 6 days. He kept sighing and refused to put me through to anyone who could offer anymore help.

    Richard Noble (@Richard09499442) reported from South Ockendon, England

    @virginmedia my wifi is terrible, how do i go about getting some boosters so that my signal is as strong as you promise? I can't access the app (thats another unresolved problem!) Also how do i go about receiving the £100 credit that you also promise? Thank you.

    DragonFish 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇮🇹 (@discobabe76) reported 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)..

    @virginmedia We have broadband but no WiFi. Rang customer services on Thursday lunchtime to be told that although nothing shows up in the service checker it' known fault and should be back today, now it's almost two days without WiFi, just want update from someone who knows what's happening

  • feyipuk
    Phil (@feyipuk) reported from Crayford, England

    @virginmedia That's my issue; in terms of service, it is resolved. Thr cable was previously buried (all be it not that deep), & I would have liked it to be again. My suggestion was leave slack so I could bury it. That message wasn't passed on to the 3rd party engineer. What would you advise?

    @virginmedia is there an explanation of the intermittent evening issues affecting RM11 1DN for the last few weeks?

    @virginmedia Any idea when internet will be back up and running in ML1? Service status says no issues. Helpline says working on it. Had no internet since yesterday. Thanks.

    Virgin Media genuinely have to be one of the worst companies in existence. A no show on an engineer, three days in a row.

    Davie G 🇬🇧 (@fredbeare) reported

    @virginmedia why is your customer service sooo bad spent 5 hours today on various chats/calls each time you transferred me had to start all over again. Why dont your teams speak to each other. In the end i cancelled joining you. Your lack of service told me all i needed to know

  • LauraJks2015
    Dr Laura Jenkins (@LauraJks2015) reported

    @virginmedia Hi. How do I find out how long an outage is going to be? WiFi is currently off and I’ve reset everything so I’m guessing it’s a network issue.

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

    @paulveness1974 @virginmedia I think that many peoples problems stem from using wifi, everything I have connected to the Internet, TVs and PC are hard wired, i never have a problem. I remember I used the Smart TV features once, never used it since, I press somethings it's instant not sat waiting to load.
