    Patricio Simonetto (@PatricioSimone2) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia wifi doesn’t work. It’s impossible to get in touch with them in the phone. The worst internet service I have had…

  • Mrspdyer
    Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia @dpjohnston10 Complaints procedure is non existent. If you phone, promised call back never happens, webform complaint doesn’t work and hasn’t since at least 28/09. Sent letter 3 wks ago - no response, despite website saying response within 48 hours. Ombudsman here we come.

    @virginmedia Do you, or could you make a TV box remote for the elderly? Tiny buttons with tinier symbols instead of words, black buttons on black body.... Almost impossible for some older people to use. An OAP version with larger coloured buttons would be such a help!

  • ZJM_331
    CJ (@ZJM_331) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia your service checker isn’t working. Can you please advise of service issues in the N1 area as the broadband has gone down again? Thank you.

  • Omnomnick
    Nick Blackburn (@Omnomnick) reported from Camden Town, England

    @hellylovesrawk @Ellydoestelly @CTweakThorne Oh no, never at work! This was to Virgin Media, who were clawing onto keeping me as a customer and sending me bills months after I'd cancelled the service!

  • marionmurray13
    Maz 💙 (@marionmurray13) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia Was fixed to discuss how I put a complaint in for compensation but guess what ?? I received no call.

  • islingtonlloyd
    Lloyd Child (@islingtonlloyd) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Hi, yes I did. But still no service before I left home. Online service checker just said problems with TV & Broadband in my postcode area. Currently not at home, but will check upon my return.

    Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for trying. Three Exec Dept people in the last 10 days promised to call me back after initial calls - none have. I have put it all in an e-mail against what I believe is my reference number. I want the mobile internet service you've arranged to work.

  • _Brady1_
    🆎 (@_Brady1_) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia Why are my sky sports channels not working but others are , getting error CS2004 . I’ve reset the box numerous times and checked the cables .. on my other box in another room all channels working fine ??

  • mariesnotcool
    Mariachiara (@mariesnotcool) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia we’ve had no service in EC1V London, since our Wi-Fi was installed last month. We’ve tried to call countless time and we keep being told about “area issues” that would be solved the day after but never do. This is just unacceptable behaviour!

  • emmalouchu
    Emma Churcher-Holt (@emmalouchu) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia Even this link isn't working. Takes me straight to auto bot/live chat messaging service and there is no one actually responding.

  • DEDNaive
    Debbs Durston (@DEDNaive) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia Look just leave it tonight. If it’s the same in the morning I’ll contact customer service to see how long it will take to close my account. Cheers for trying to help.

  • MannyMontanaro
    Manny Montanaro (@MannyMontanaro) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia I won’t hold my breath fir that to happen. By the way, will @virginmedia still send me an invoice even though I’ve had no TV and ultra slow #broadband for a week? I think I already know the answer to that 🤔👎🏼

  • dionnepat2000
    Dionne (@dionnepat2000) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia please fix this issue. Recently not loading some emails over wifi saying it’s to do with network settings. Ok if I turn wifi off. Reading lots of people having the same problem with you on iPhone.

  • JammieBun
    James Brown (@JammieBun) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia No response to texts; no response to WhatsApp. Live chat unavailable. Please can you advise how to terminate my contract now, since you’re not providing any kind of service?

  • BBLn15
    Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia It’s the same number I’ve had for over 30 years. Read previous tweets! I wanted rid of Virgin because Customer service is really lousy. I see you’re pushing the blame to other provider without evidence. Sounds about right How long wait for someone to answer the phone today?

  • spandya1
    Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Watford, England

    @virginmedia is there a problem impacting broadband in wd17? Services dropped suddenly at around 1:30-1:45pm today.

  • squeakytoy
    Steven Peterson 🏳️‍🌈 (@squeakytoy) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia I’ve already terminated my service with you since you were unable to get it installed in less than a month.

  • spandya1
    Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Watford, England

    @virginmedia …and now download speed is 50-70 mbps as opposed to 500 mbps + before the incident (hard wired to router not over Wi-Fi). Please can you look into this?

  • nan2thou
    PAT WEBB (@nan2thou) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia There are always issues in this area. I would suggest that most the equipment needs replacing. But I won hold my breath

    @virginmedia I need some help with my account, recently moved house and had new WiFi installed and your trying to charge me £103 just for WiFi? Not having it

  • Nokkapie
    Paul Tee (@Nokkapie) reported

    Yes @virginmedia I love being charged more than the contract I agreed! I also love being ignored when making a formal complaint. Defo won be renewing another contract. Awful behaviour from a business ive used for 20 years!

It remains on Freeview (for now) but is said to be suffering financial problems.

    @virginmedia inc movies & sport & 1gb broadband all for a lady who has never used either and only sends the odd email . We have just spent another evening waiting another missed call and still no response to an email we sent a couple weeks ago . This is all causing her distress .

  • ChefPaul41
    Chef Paul (@ChefPaul41) reported

    Reckon we had better offerings on TV last week in our lodge ( caravan ) with Freeview than we do back home with virgin media. TV sucks.

    .@virginmedia your bereavement team are a nightmare. We’re trying to transfer account from my deceased parent but we’ve been told we have to immediately cancel within 24 hours? Baring in mind we haven’t got anything else sorted to continue? Is this policy you promote to everyone?

  • Dean_Xyber1

    @lukewarm14 @O2 @virginmedia I can help send me a DM

    To work for @virginmedia you don’t need a brain cell, maybe the worst company in the UK I’ve ever had the displeasure of dealing with. Avoid them at all costs

  • StephenOld
    Stephen Old #FBPE (@StephenOld) reported

    @virginmedia When you upgraded my broadband line you told me to plug my phone into my router. I did that and it stopped working. Your customer service is useless and this tweet is staying public until YOU fix it.

    JayBee (@JayBee58963922) reported

    Just had a call from supposedly Virgin Media, saying that there was a technical problem on the line, making my voice go all slowly on calls. Wow ! Really . Of course I fell for that. NOT ! What next, make me talk backwards ? Keep aware folks.
