  • forakin Akin Akíntáyọ̀ 🏳️‍🌈 #European (@forakin) reported from Manchester, England

    Dear @virginmedia, I've since Sunday registered at least 10 events of the loss of my broadband service, only Wednesday was problem free because I was not at home. Your portal provides an ETA to resolution only for the service to fail again. What is the problem in Manchester?

  • DavidMcleish11 David Mcleish (@DavidMcleish11) reported from Wilmslow, England

    @virginmedia I want to speak to someone about what the charges are. I’ve used your live chat but no one can tell me. Seems poor when I would stay with you but you don’t supply my new flat

  • IamNickRoper Nick Roper (@IamNickRoper) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia can you get someone to contact me about Complaint reference: C-2503211445.

  • Jennnnnn_x jennnnnn 🌎 (@Jennnnnn_x) reported from Urmston, England

    @virginmedia Ive spent over 2 hours trying to make a complaint to be told that i can make a complaint but you wont do anything about it.

  • Coultas DC (@Coultas) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I complained about my data signal on my phone dropping out every couple of minutes over a week ago, it’s still no better and I’ve received no update. Please can you help me with this?

  • forakin Akin Akíntáyọ̀ 🏳️‍🌈 #European (@forakin) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia It appears my broadband and television service have been restored, I hope it remains stable from now on.

  • Jennnnnn_x jennnnnn 🌎 (@Jennnnnn_x) reported from Urmston, England

    @geog_trainee @virginmedia Im on phonecall 4. They claimed my complaint would get my nowhere and i may as well give up.

  • katiem8y Kate McLean (@katiem8y) reported from Poynton, England

    @virginmedia help needed with constant dropping out of internet. Very frustrating

  • katiem8y Kate McLean (@katiem8y) reported from Poynton, England

    @virginmedia we have invested in a new router as we’re having endless issues with yours but now we’ve got pixelated channels on the tv. Any ideas how we can sort? Thanks

  • forakin Akin Akíntáyọ̀ 🏳️‍🌈 #European (@forakin) reported from Manchester, England

    This situation with the unstable and unreliable @virginmedia broadband service is unacceptable and untenable, my work and business depends on this service and I am unaware of any 'Act of God' scenario that has informed this situation, at least you have not bothered to contact me.

  • Victori54706021 Victoria Louise (@Victori54706021) reported from Meltham, England

    @virginmedia continually get cut off my broadband only to connect to box with no internet, its impossible to work from home with this level of service, issue getting worse. Got sent new box that wont connect too, time to leave I think before I loose my job!

  • forakin Akin Akíntáyọ̀ 🏳️‍🌈 #European (@forakin) reported from Manchester, England

    I've had an unstable to non-working @virginmedia broadband connection in Manchester for about 18 hours. Whilst they are aware of the issue and trying to resolve it, it is untenable that in the era of working from home, a major infrastructure requirement will be down for 24 hours.

  • Conuggy Christine C (@Conuggy) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp my broadband was down for several days went online (at work) and arranged an engineer visit.. it’s back on how to cancel CANNOT connect via login doesn’t recognise me or my memorable question please advise how to cancel 👍

  • Jennnnnn_x jennnnnn 🌎 (@Jennnnnn_x) reported from Urmston, England

    How do @virginmedia get away with charging an early cancellation fee because we are moving house (less than one mile away) when its impossible for them to provide a service... £240!!!!!!

  • Conuggy Christine C (@Conuggy) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia trouble with internet every other day now for weeks.. unable to work from home boss not happy PLEASE HELP

  • Conuggy Christine C (@Conuggy) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginhelp @virginmedia absolutely ridiculous 3 weeks no service waited an hour to get through because I’m at work cannot arrange an engineer .. NO TEST REQUIRED IT IS NOT ABSOLUTELY NOT WORKING I HAVE HAD NO BROADBAND FOR NEARLY 3!weeks!!!! Disgusting

  • forakin Akin Akíntáyọ̀ 🏳️‍🌈 #European (@forakin) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia The issue is this has been a daily problem, your customer wants this fixed, it's like taking your car to the mechanic everyday to fix whatever is wrong with it, it begs the question, what is the problem in Manchester that the engineer has had to return daily to fix, since Sunday?

  • forakin Akin Akíntáyọ̀ 🏳️‍🌈 #European (@forakin) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia The estimated resolution time according to the Service Status page is 21:05 today. Meanwhile, I have to run a support and test network on mobile phone tethering.

  • Ryan_Nixon11 Nixon (@Ryan_Nixon11) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I have been waiting on an email to come through from you to confirm a payment but have yet to receive it can you help

  • ggfeb62 geoff george (@ggfeb62) reported from Oldham, England

    @BalvinderTV @virginmedia Wait for the price hike ..... Coming soon. I hope you get them to reduce your payment for no service ☹😖😤 Good luck👍🏾

  • JayKuma92344190 Jay (@JayKuma92344190) reported

    @virginmedia your customer service is so bad. I've been charged for £155 for my billing from £85. They can't even help me or offer with a good upgrade. Poor service! @SkyUK you have a new customer!

  • DanDastardly1 DanDastardly (@DanDastardly1) reported

    @virginmedia Its been two weeks now and I just want it to be fixed. The stress of having to tell another person the issue and them either telling me the same thing ive already tried or them just trying to get rid of me is too much. Cant I just get this sorted, please? Its affecting my work.

  • mikef68 Mike Ferguson (@mikef68) reported

    @virginmedia your broadband service has dropped out 4 times this evening (kt3 postcode)

  • Sazz_3 Sarah B 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Sazz_3) reported

    @virginmedia I'm having issues logging in again and my broadband is down. Can someone please assist?

  • Zappyvera ZappyCool (@Zappyvera) reported

    @virginmedia Wired test has reasonable speed, but WiFi speed is terrible (less than 5mbps download speed)😥

  • Rich19_86 Rich (@Rich19_86) reported

    @virginmedia What a stupid and unprofessional response. The internet has been down in my area for 4 days with no communication from Virgin. The app has said the services are all working which they aren’t. Unacceptable and poor customer service

  • marty_woodhouse Marty Woodhouse (@marty_woodhouse) reported

    @virginmedia fastest and most reliable wifi my arse, goes down more than mia khalifa, at least with her you know what you’re paying for, feels like we are paying for a connection piggy backed off the neighbours ******* toaster at times

  • bradfreeman93 Brad Freeman (@bradfreeman93) reported

    Honestly @virginmedia your broadband is as reliable as a chocolate tea pot. Sort it out. Yes I’ve contacted you umpteen times about the issue and nobody gives a toss

  • BurnettGlen Glen Burnett (@BurnettGlen) reported

    @bradfreeman93 @virginmedia Having issues in ipswich dropped out am hour ago won't even let me access the app with 5g mobile data on.
