  • bellter73 Joan Bell (@bellter73) reported from East Kilbride, Scotland

    @virginmedia Thank you so much for answering, however, the community forum is not what is required, your engineer couldn’t find the DP which often gets flooded therefore water ingress impacts our service, I really need this resolved by a person. I am a loyal customer (20 years +) Thank u 🙏

  • Lisa_Louise89 Lisa Louise Geary (@Lisa_Louise89) reported from Clydebank, Scotland

    @virginmedia I have been trying for days to call 150 from my virgin home phone but can never get through I just get told all lines are busy and it hangs up. Is there a reason for this? Very strange that I don’t get the normal options.

  • RoisainMcAteer RoìsaìnMcAteer (@RoisainMcAteer) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia Been a customer since NTL days.. it’s ridiculous

  • XRachelRoss Rachel ♥ (@XRachelRoss) reported from Kirkintilloch, Scotland

    @virginmedia Not sure. Spoke to an advisor but have very little faith that the issue is resolved. No confirmation in regards to the compliant and no apology offered. Asked to speak to a manager and was told this wasn’t possible.

  • petewilkes046 Peter Wilkes (@petewilkes046) reported from Paisley, Scotland

    @virginmedia very disappointing customer service, expected a call hours ago to reset a mobile PUK and get my 11yo son his mobile freedom, paying for a SIM I can’t use. Thanks Virgin - maybe I should’ve stayed with my previous network 😡

  • lesleyjb4 Lesley Byrne (@lesleyjb4) reported from Kirkintilloch, Scotland

    @virginmedia I have been trying to contact your customer services for 2 days now to cancel my contract. Could you advise the best way to do this as I don’t have hours on end to spare on hold to then be cut off. Thanks.

  • suicideresearch Rory O'Connor (@suicideresearch) reported from Milngavie, Scotland

    @virginmedia I have been trying for a week to speak to a person on your helpline. Every time you keep referring me to the website and then cut me off. Restart, check cables doesn’t fix fault. My TiVo is not working, how can I speak to a person?

  • CakesByKinane Cakes By Kinane (@CakesByKinane) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia No, no known issues!

  • inchfad65 BARRY R J GRANT (@inchfad65) reported from Clydebank, Scotland

    @ballinacup69 @virginmedia Been with them since the old ntl days .. got boxes in 3 rooms , just trying to cut it to what we use !!! Absolutely disgraceful that a grown woman comes off the phone in that state .. @virginmedia have serious customer issues .. it’s all about ££££ nothing else

  • bellter73 Joan Bell (@bellter73) reported from East Kilbride, Scotland

    @KE22LLY @virginmedia Not good Kelly, there are a lot of issues & they are inundated! Just need it sorted, the service was great during the last lockdown & pretty poor now 😢

    @virginmedia what an absolute disgrace! I have been trying to get through fir weeks on phone. I’ve emailed, I’ve filled out complaint form and nothing! I want to cancel my account!!!I will tweet every day till someone contacts me!

  • bellter73 Joan Bell (@bellter73) reported from East Kilbride, Scotland

    @virginmedia We have submitted a complaint as you advised, not heard a thing! Our WiFi is awful & our TV is now impacted, can’t watch catch up! Will be phoning tomorrow to cancel services, poor show @virginmedia 😔

  • mikop90 Michael (@mikop90) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia an hour on hold to cancel Virgin Media and you hang up on me. Can someone please contact me…

  • bellter73 Joan Bell (@bellter73) reported from East Kilbride, Scotland

    @CarmensStory @virginmedia I’m not sure Virgin are coping at the moment as the call centre asks you to call back later, that tells me the call volumes are massive, so I might not be the only one having this issue. The kids also need it for Uni & School 😢

  • sengacummings2 senga cummings (@sengacummings2) reported from Paisley, Scotland

    @virginmedia is this a joke ? Your telephone line to customer service automatically cuts you off , to reset my personal data with shuts me out every time 😡 is there actually anyone working for Virgin Media during pandemic?????

  • smiles333 Pauline Cameron (@smiles333) reported from Erskine, Scotland

    @MartinSLewis 🙏🙏 for all you do!! Any ideas on how to get hold of @virginmedia ? I’ve been trying for 5 weeks, to cancel. I’ve emailed, phoned, tweeted. Nada!! Should I just stop dd?

  • bellter73 Joan Bell (@bellter73) reported from East Kilbride, Scotland

    Online teaching was great during the 1st lockdown as I had robust WiFi, now I am having WiFi issues with @virginmedia, an engineer was out 2 weeks ago & just reset the router, this improved momentarily, back to square 1, please send help #virginmedia your CC not taking calls 📞

  • smiles333 Pauline Cameron (@smiles333) reported from Erskine, Scotland

    @virginmedia what a disgrace! Trying to get hold of someone for 5 weeks!!! They keep ignoring all my messages! Going to cancel direct debit

  • paulyboy1888 Paul Craig (@paulyboy1888) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia is terrible, on demand and catch up down in my area since yesterday and told online it will be fixed by the 8th, if it’s not that it’s the broadband, definitely leaving when my contract finishes, don’t even get my broadband speed and I’m on 200mb😡

  • Jenmax_83 Jen (@Jenmax_83) reported

    @virginmedia any idea how long my service will be down for? So far no Internet, TV or phone line since 3pm yesteday and your website fix time just keeps going up.

  • mcalvert1066 Northernguy (@mcalvert1066) reported

    @virginmedia Yes there is an ongoing issue just seems to be taking ages to sort

  • ChrisMumfo Christopher Mumford (@ChrisMumfo) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for your reply surely you understand it is very frustrating not to be believed and then to complain then to be told the problem is at my end but then the problem is area wide and then total loss of service. Thanks everything is working well so far today.

  • hopegracetoday Hope Grace (@hopegracetoday) reported

    @virginmedia Getting thru on phone is the issue.

  • ozguresentepe Özgür Esentepe (@ozguresentepe) reported

    @virginmedia What number can I call to sort this issue?

  • buildagill A.Gill Building (@buildagill) reported

    @virginmedia Its a residential account. We were promised £50 credit off the first bill, no set up or activation fee. 1st bill should have been £6, then £28 there after. 1st bill was £91.... I've tried calling to fix problem but getting nowhere.

  • SGR_KSR K’sar (@SGR_KSR) reported

    @virginmedia My complaint was that my 30 days notice and subsequent submission of proof were both ignored. I gave my notice in June, I’m still with VM now and being charged double. My complaint was then closed down without any resolution or communication. This is how you lose customers….

  • stevedavidson_ Steve Davidson (@stevedavidson_) reported

    @virginmedia No. Given that the same problem is affecting all 4 of our numbers/handsets and there are many other reports of the same issue, it can’t be related to my handset.

  • m1cvv Micky Welch (@m1cvv) reported

    @virginmedia I like to have them split so I can have different devices on the 2.4 and the 5Gz. So basically every reboot or down time the 2.4 will automatically rename itself to what my 5Ghz signal is and all the devices which were connected to 2.4 then show as offline. 2/4

  • my_minxy MyMinxy (@my_minxy) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia on the phone now for 3rd time as get cut off, no internet and NO HELP, it’s been over 24hrs now, I need the internet
