  • McEchelon Melissa McKinnon (@McEchelon) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia help! My mobile phone number was meant to transfer to you yesterday. Online it still says processing, and I can use the Internet and send texts and call out. But nobody can call or text me! Feeling slightly frustrated. :(

  • Scott_Currie_18 Scott Currie (@Scott_Currie_18) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia I have reached out. 5 times. Each time it has not been dealt with. Every time I’ve been told the problem has been rectified and it hasnt. They are telling me different things, no one has a clue. You can’t take money out of peoples bank account then put it into credit

  • DarrellB91 Darrell Anne Atkins (@DarrellB91) reported from Livingston, Scotland

    Trying to deal with @virginmedia on behalf of my Gran is one of the most frustrating things. All we want to do is downgrade her package and I've been passed to so many different people. I bet they would keep you on the phone if you wanted to cancel!

  • LTJ_79 Karan Lamb (@LTJ_79) reported from Mid Calder, Scotland

    @virginmedia I have tried to phone for technical help, sky sports channels not on other room boxes how is this fixed, I pay for full package 😠

  • jillheartsnyc Jill Robb (@jillheartsnyc) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Trying to watch via catch up on #stvplayer via @virginmedia #tivo is nothing short of torture. Super slow responses loading / between menus, buffering and you can’t fast forward adverts.. really need to catch up with the times, customer viewing habits and expectation

  • tictocthenoo lewis beattie (@tictocthenoo) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia WiFi , no signal at home and no Amazon Firestick TV , You obviously have a problem in EH10, can you confirm so we are not confused switching our routers off and on😡

  • scurloguechamp mick g (@scurloguechamp) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia Sick to death of scam phone calls. Offcom states its the provider/supplier who has responsibility..yet..Virgin media do nothing. Shameful service..makes you wonder how they get your number in the first place..#integrity of phone provider.

  • luxeventsltd Lux Events (@luxeventsltd) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Hey world! @virginmedia are having issues with telephone lines which means you can’t reach us at the moment. Should be fixed PM but I’m the meantime email or mobiles pls 😀

  • mastermc0 Grant (@mastermc0) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Never had so much trouble trying to spend more money with a company than I’m having with @virginmedia at the moment at least @SkyUK answer the upgrades line quickly!

  • NeilsonJustin Justin Neilson (@NeilsonJustin) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia very I happy with my current issue, I have been charged £80 for a contract with has been changed without my knowledge even though I spoke to an agent about 3 1/2 weeks ago and sorted my contract out and it was around £52 a month, now being told that no record of this

  • Scott_Currie_18 Scott Currie (@Scott_Currie_18) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    I spent 4 hours on the phone in Lanzarote last week and was assured that the problem had been resolved and in September 99 pounds would be coming out of mine and Lucy’s account. I’ve just been billed 165 pounds for September. Get it sorted @virginmedia

  • Polybandit Beachboy (@Polybandit) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    It's ironic that Virgin Media manage to **** so many people at once. We just want internet.

  • richywatt247 Mr Watt (@richywatt247) reported from Dalkeith, Scotland

    @virginmedia Would rather your company just completed the job before my driveway started to fall apart! Just take the responsibility to fix the problems you create thank you.

  • Scot_Ruddock Scott Ruddock (@Scot_Ruddock) reported from Bonnyrigg, Scotland

    **** you @virginmedia and your price rise! Read the small print people you can cancel whilst in contract due to it being a increase outwith inflation. #RightToCancel

  • jillheartsnyc Jill Robb (@jillheartsnyc) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia No I haven’t.. not sure much can be done. I can’t have a V6 box as you won’t allow me to use a different broadband service (I don’t pay for my current broadband..) so I’m stuck with aging technology of TiVo 😞

  • LorneCallaghan ✭✭Lorne Callaghan✭✭ (@LorneCallaghan) reported from Linlithgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia is there a problem with smtp server for Blueyonder. Trying to forward emails to someone through Android phone. Settings are correct but told can't send message. Last month I couldn't send emails with any attachments (under size limits)

  • Turgenev_red Stan W Mack (@Turgenev_red) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia Hi, I am trying to logon to My Virgin Media, but my password is rejected. I then follow the reset password instructions -and enter the correct details for the secret question and then my account details - it gets rejected - can you please help

  • Billybop Billy McKirdy (@Billybop) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia I’ve been on hold for last 30 minutes trying to report my broken remote control, I understand that demand is heavy but this is unacceptable. Please contact me

  • Scott_Currie_18 Scott Currie (@Scott_Currie_18) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Honestly @virginmedia are a joke. Our contract ended in April so I phoned to cancel. They convinced me to stay with a deal for 99 pounds with a 50 pounds off loyalty voucher. Since then we have been charged 138.99, 138.99, 140 and they wrongly took 155 out last week

  • cubsi1 Robert McCubbing (@cubsi1) reported from Bo’ness, Scotland

    FFS @virginmedia please sort out your customer service. After finally getting through to change my package, I was put on hold again and transferred to another department. I hung up after 1 hour on hold!!! Think I’ll just cancel and take my business elsewhere

  • johnwilliedean JD 🇾🇪 (@johnwilliedean) reported

    Hello @virginmedia just spoken to one of your employees who has told me that in order to use your Wi-Fi I have to turn off my @Sonos sound bar? I’ve never heard such nonsense in my life. Your service is terrible and your staff are worse.

    @virginmedia is there a problem in Croydon because I don't have any internet or phone line and your status page is saying everything's fine multiple people have lost service in our block of flats

  • seanbt67 Sean B Tennyson (@seanbt67) reported

    @virginmedia Well your system is broken otherwise I would have broadband!!

    @virginmedia Don’t know, I’m just fed up trying to get these issues resolved, every day so far this week there have been issues, I cannot check online without an internet connection

  • Magikos_IT Magikos_IT (@Magikos_IT) reported

    @virginmedia Problems in Southampton with really poor connectivity and dropping services all the time. Been poor since downtime a couple of days ago. Online service says only TV affected but this is not right and when on the next screen to test line, it just says unable to test?
