    @virginmedia Iv asked lots of questions that have gotten me no where. To be hung up on over & over. They gave me a date of 17th December for it to have it installed no reasons as to why nothing explained I just think it’s a joke and the costumer service is dreadful. To have to wait 6 weeks!!

    @virginmedia Hi, for the 2nd time it appears you’re trying to charge me for a call out when I wasn’t supposed to be charged, I’ve already called once about this and was told it was corrected but it’s happened again? I’ve had to cancel my DD until sorted as due to come out 2morrow

  • Aldehulme
    David (@Aldehulme) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia I need to speak to somebody regarding a broadband problem without you running a check that will cut me off the internet. How do I get past this to speak to a person?

  • ClaireabelleRed
    CLAIRE GROVER 🐝 (@ClaireabelleRed) reported from Bury, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for updating I've had my 82 year old dad on the phone as he only has the main tv channels so I guess its the same issue as the pixalation issues. I'll let him know

  • _AdamGardiner
    Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia Will they help if the Wi-Fi is working at the time I call? Because my issue is that when it is working, your advisors consider their work done despite telling them that it usually doesn’t last. And invariable, it doesn’t.

  • HollowayAlec
    Alec Holloway (@HollowayAlec) reported from Stretford, England

    @virginmedia is unbelievable that our Internet is so poor, trying to contact someone via phone on numerous occasions waiting for over 45 minutes to speak with someone. Still haven't been able to get through to anyone.

  • JoshuaBurns
    Josh B (@JoshuaBurns) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Yes, tried last night and your service status page was actually down. Today I checked and it showed no issues, I run the diagnostic and no issues either. Came back up late this afternoon.

  • _AdamGardiner
    Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia I was also promised a call back from a manager within 24 hours on a phone call on Friday afternoon. I did not receive this phone call. This is absolutely disgusting and I expect something to be done. I rely on your service for my income as I work from home. (2/3)

  • Hasbullins
    Hazbullins (@Hasbullins) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia New call of duty released today and your Internet service is down. Are you taking the full piss out of me here? Wankers

  • LindzDDub
    Lindz Devine (@LindzDDub) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp I've never had this much issue as I have had today. I'm plugged in on ethernet, I've reset my hub, and checked my area and there is no issue at all. My WiFi is working from my hub but yet its booting me out of Destiny 2 and not just that but the chat parties on PS5 itself

  • tuite_liz
    Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia Could the problems in the area have caused damage to the equipment? As it was working fine before. Do I get compensation for all this time as the earliest appointment is Friday 14th?

  • Lerounxi
    Reece Jordan Doonan, RN (@Lerounxi) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia can you confirm if there’s active engineer trying to rectify the service outage Manchester (M30). Widespread issues reported according to your service outage on website ?

  • CallyRaven
    Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @virginmedia I seem to be the first one to report them, still saying intermittent problems in my area. Can't get to speak to anyone on phone, I rely on the Internet.

  • timmycooke
    Tim Cooke 🇺🇦 (@timmycooke) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Both wired and wireless. We've had 8 engineers out, a rewire, new hub and still endless drop outs. Was told finally it was an upload issue from the amp that supplied the box on the street. But still we're having issues. The 150 number is joke, make it simple!!!

  • StevomacMUFC
    Stephen Mackenzie (@StevomacMUFC) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I’m trying to raise a complaint online but I’m not receiving any acknowledgment. Is there another way I can raise my complaint? Thanks

    @virginmedia get your broadband sorted or I WILL WALK AWAY WITHOUT PAYING ANY EXIST CONTRACT FEE AS without due adequate or above standard broadband speed and service which has been for the past 3 weeks I WILL be going elsewhere and you can shove it up the *** or SUCK ON IT

  • Old_Motherduck
    Old Motherduck (@Old_Motherduck) reported

    @virginmedia @JamieGBarry maybe you should make that clear from the beginning and treat loyal customers as first time customers

  • RRS91718
    Robert 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⚽ (@RRS91718) reported

    @virginmedia For the 3rd time in under 2 weeks our internet has gone completely down. This is becoming totally unreliable

  • df1888
    d_f1888 (@df1888) reported

    @virginmedia @LutzSchueler Shocking customer service from VM. Next step will be contacting the communications ombudsman

  • Droyjfc
    (Lee Warhurst) Hyde FC Academy. Droylsden Juniors (@Droyjfc) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, i tried to do that. The virgin worker was rude and uncooperative, I ended up putting the phone down

  • RandomRocker
    Tim 🤘 (@RandomRocker) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia I transferred my mothers account into my name after she passed a few months ago, it all seemed to work but now when I try and login they want my fathers password..who passed away 8 years ago and refuse to let me in without it.. Their account system is awful and they don't care.

  • antiprotests
    On The Right Side (@antiprotests) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia I’m sorry for your loss, this interaction with @virginmedia just goes to show how “important” the customer journey is to all of the big communications companies. They are just interested in new customers and have little care or empathy with their existing customers.

  • w47carr
    Mrs c (@w47carr) reported

    So been without WiFi and tv because of @virginmedia outage in barnsley since early morning supposed to be fixed by 5pm tonight and 4g is useless

  • Refan80
    Corax (@Refan80) reported

    @virginmedia The fix estimate is not 11am tomorrow and not 5pm today. This is unacceptable, and don't tell me to check the link it tells us nothing. I want an actual human to tell me what is going on. For what you charge the service is piss poor.

  • jessica54599486
    Jessica Louise (@jessica54599486) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia When my dad died i had to cancel his holiday, they accidentally sent me there internal conversation which was them discussing not telling me about the death policy (which would give a full refund ) and to only offer a refund on the deposit. Companies are awful
