  • RockettNeil Neil Rockett (@RockettNeil) reported from Wentworth, England

    Dreadful service from @virginmedia. Internet & TV problems for almost a week now. Completely fed up with being asked to unplug, plug back in again & run the set up process. It doesn’t work! They’re happy to take £70 pm for a poor service but reluctant to send an engineer.

  • victimsvoice73 Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported from Sheffield, England

  • wilcock_steve steve wilcock 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@wilcock_steve) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia good morning, it appears that your service is poor yet again!!! No tv,broadband or phone since yesterday. A call to customer services reveals 03 March for service t return in full. 👏👏👏

  • Rozzyp1 Rozzyp (@Rozzyp1) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia @Tonester_7 I wish they had an office where you could go & sort out your problems with @virginmedia, the call centre staff sadly don't speak Yorkshire, they don't understand me!

  • SUMBoiii_ Sumboiii (@SUMBoiii_) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia hi got an email saying I'm going to get charged for not sending back equipment, which I have and have the receipt to confirm. While I'm here my upgraded broadband is quite flimsy and drops connection more times then I drop my pants, and I'm a nudist! Help!!!

  • wilcock_steve steve wilcock 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@wilcock_steve) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately we can no longer use this service as it states u can only do this 3 times. Which becoz it says phone fault as opposed to full service fault have been used!! 03 March is no good to me!!

  • Bhamjee786 Mohammedbhamjee_ (@Bhamjee786) reported from Dewsbury, England

    Why do i still have 1 bar connection in my house @virginmedia fix up pls

  • gavcav1 gavcav (@gavcav1) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia Pls don’t keep sending me this same message, I’ve said time and again there are no issues showing and that’s one of the annoyances! There never is anything showing.

  • pso_kt PsO kt (@pso_kt) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Ha iv just grabbed a technician outside shevis going to run a test as she visiting addresses with same issues 👌

  • Rozzyp1 Rozzyp (@Rozzyp1) reported from Wakefield, England

    @fatboy1988 @virginmedia @Tonester_7 The call centre rang me to try & sell me more services, she rattled through her script with a very heavy foreign accent, I didn't understand her, spoke too quickly, so declined the offer, shame I may have wanted the service, they'll never sell anything in that way! @virginmedia

  • badger63 judith badger (@badger63) reported from Sheffield, England

    Really disappointed with @virginmedia quality of home broadband... insufficient band width...paying a lot of money for really poor service...not good enough ... let's see what @sky can offer

  • pso_kt PsO kt (@pso_kt) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia hi can you tell me if there's any issues in S6 please,

  • ron3stripes ronald fox (@ron3stripes) reported from Royston, England

    @virginmedia can you explain to me why you have used my property to fix cable to enter next door without my permission.

  • Rozzyp1 Rozzyp (@Rozzyp1) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia Last time I tried to submit online, it wouldn't let me, it said ring!! You just go round in circles. Pointless exercise. Your customer service is not good, it used to be brilliant.

  • RockettNeil Neil Rockett (@RockettNeil) reported from Wentworth, England

    @virginmedia I’ve run all the tests & it’s telling me the ethernet cable is unplugged. I’ve never had an Ethernet cable! I can watch tv & record but can’t access on demand or catch up services. It stopped working at 5.59am 27/2. Please send help! Like a real person. I’m getting fed up now...

  • badger63 judith badger (@badger63) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia We are dissatisfied with virgin medis. Poor delivery of streaming services and in House wifi. Numerous occasions where service is cut or slow. Please advise how we can improve this

  • Legofski1 Owen (@Legofski1) reported

    @virginmedia WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE IN THE ******* WORK - hung up on twice because wankers STILL dont want to help me!

  • UnicornRunning Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported from South Shields, England

    @gotthegistofit @virginmedia Same, just spent a frustrating hour on their "customer service" line because about £40 of calls are on my father-in-law's bill which weren't made. Still not resolved and an engineer has to come our first (which they wanted to charge for!)

  • SamDob88 Sam Dobbins 💚💛 (@SamDob88) reported

    @virginmedia @Arby_Hyde @VirginMediaIE Seems like a system failure which was supposed to be fixed by 5pm. Came home from work and need to do some more work but no internet. And of course their customer service closes at 6pm. Shambles.

  • TheAghaSays Omar (@TheAghaSays) reported

    @virginmedia Intermittent service happening almost every week.

  • nathanclough92 clough92 (@nathanclough92) reported

    @virginmedia I was told 14 days and it's been 22, I'll leave it until 28 days and if its still not here I'm going to cancel the direct debit and not pay another penny until I receive it.

  • thelightman93 Mr Man (@thelightman93) reported

    @libertyglobal @virginmedia Hopefully it’s better than the garbage set top boxes they normally send out and then refuse to upgrade unless they’re completely broken!

  • pk032214 Prakash (@pk032214) reported

    Just made a formal complaint to Ofcom regarding Virgin Media.

  • jubz9645 Jubz Hasan (@jubz9645) reported

    @virginmedia Its alright im going to cancel it today. Making me run around like a **** for 2 hours.

  • andie52 Andie T (@andie52) reported

    @DBatcheler @virginmedia I tried Live Chat and was transferred to What's App. Still absolutely pointless. No customer loyalty whatsoever. Last time I had to go via the Ombudsman as they reneged on a fixed deal and put it up 3 months after the offer was agreed.

  • BazualdoTginge Brian Smith (@BazualdoTginge) reported

    @virginmedia Is their an issue with online chat facility, tried on various platforms over last couple of days with no joy.
