  • TroubleDads
    Trouble, Becky and Dads (@TroubleDads) reported from Mansfield Woodhouse, England

    @Rapidolass @virginmedia I had to hang up after an hour because I was about to swear. I may as well listen to a voice synthesised repeated message. Not sorry, no problems and only wanted a £99 call out charge to check their equipment showing an error light. Wifi is painfully slow.

    @virginmedia worst WiFi ever! How am I meant to work when the WiFi keeps cutting out! 🤬

  • nghudson
    Nigel Hudson (@nghudson) reported from West Bridgford, England

    Managed to finally pay @virginmedia off and get rid of them for good. Absolute shysters and the worst customer service you’ll ever be unlucky enough to encounter. You won’t see me again unless things drastically improve.

    @virginmedia Awful service today, WiFi up and down. Always in the middle of important calls!

    @virginmedia Service now restored - thank you. What is your plan to ensure we do not again lose service when #NFFC are playing next weekend ?

  • lee0510
    Lee Smith (@lee0510) reported from Ilkeston, England

    @virginmedia please tell me how to speak to someone in your organisation! I can’t get through on line as it doesn’t recognise me even though you bill me and your phone system won’t allow me to speak to anyone. Customer service is diabolical.

  • MissBeBop

    When @virginmedia wifi is working it’s bloody amazing, when you need to raise an issue with them it’s the most frustrating experience ever. Today I have had 2 people hang up mid call, 3 bots, 2 people on chat and still in the same place. No ******* wifi!!!!

  • mjtriggs
    Matt Triggs (@mjtriggs) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @virginmedia My broadband hub has no power at all, and it seems the solution is an engineer in the middle of next week. How am I meant to work until then? Can’t you just post me a new hub?

  • barmylad34
    leigh.butler 🐏 (@barmylad34) reported from Derbyshire, England

    @virginmedia as usual disgusting service from you guys. Try to talk to someone you pass me on and cut me off. You show a number to call that says it’s incorrect and cut me off. You really are the worst provider in the country

  • MissBeBop
    Bhavna 🙋🏽‍♀️ (@MissBeBop) reported from Eastwood, England

    @virginmedia any idea of when service will resume in NG16 as currently trying to work from home with no internet 😩

  • gaz_smith123
    Gareth Smith (@gaz_smith123) reported from Ilkeston, England

    @virginmedia have you got problems in area 30? My connection keeps dropping out!

  • barmylad34
    leigh.butler 🐏 (@barmylad34) reported from Derbyshire, England

    @virginmedia why are you still not providing tv services today? Blackout!

  • 67BLADE
    Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Chesterfield, England

    @virginmedia I have tried that text service for the last two days. ‘Terri BOT’ is no use. I need to speak to a real person . All that needs doing is the issue of a new bill without the £35 activation fee. This is becoming the worst decision I’ve ever made in relation to switching broadband

  • jonathansc
    Jonathan SC ن Esq. (@jonathansc) reported from Wilford, England

    @virginmedia To seem to pick live football for your outages - is this a coincidence ? As you understand by frustration - what are you doing to reduce the frequency of loss of service ?

  • robhollanduk
    Rob Holland ⚽️ ☮️ (@robhollanduk) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @Walpie27 By being an O2/Virgin Media customer. Statement yesterday said lots of tickets held back for general sale, but after the O2 Priority app & website crashed I’m not holding hope of getting tickets. In the past I’d have queued at the arena but the box office isn’t opening tomorrow

  • robbiederby
    Robin Palmer (@robbiederby) reported from Derbyshire, England

    Any existing customers wanting to upgrade to the new #Virgin360 box, don't use the online form, it doesn't work. You'll get a confirmation email followed by an email requesting you call them. Their customer service is very busy, but it's excellent on 0345 454 1111. #virginmedia

    RIGGO (@rigg0o) reported from Eastwood, England

    Class when you wanna cancel @virginmedia and the gobshite operater cant get it in her thick skull and barraging you with other shite deals to then put the phone down. Times must be hard for mr branson, please liquidate.

  • iadnan9
    Addy (@iadnan9) reported

    @AlloquiStrix @virginmedia Reported an issue 2 months ago and only just received a response. The advice given was unhelpful, careless, and frankly unprofessional. The issue is still ongoing with Now being told it could take another 28 days for a follow-up. Completely unacceptable and a waste of time.

  • kevin_cox9211
    kevin cox (@kevin_cox9211) reported

    @virginmedia I need help the call centre person isn't helping and won't listen. Can't get on to account a replacement box that was ordered is now not been ordered.

  • ruthmpayne
    Ruth Payne (@ruthmpayne) reported

    @virginmedia the WiFi in Edgbaston / B16 has been down for 48 hours now. Tried finding out what’s happening but call centre was useless. When will this be sorted??? 48 hours is ridiculous

  • f4ckiam
    Gerbil (@f4ckiam) reported

    I feel like I'm on a complaining streak but here goes: This one is for @O2 I have been a loyal customer since the switch-over of Virgin Media customers. I barely use data. So, I've been more than happy with my £9.73/month tariff. The data is unimportant. Unlimited calls/texts is

  • AlloquiStrix
    Alloqui Strix (@AlloquiStrix) reported

    @virginmedia My point was that the date of fix changed from 1 day, to 2, then 4, 3, 10, 4, and 10 days. Broadband is an amenity nowadays and your customers should not be without it for this length of time, especially when I'm told it's an upgrade of the infrastructure.

  • Shef1212
    M U (@Shef1212) reported

    @virginmedia no internet, but I need to wait 5 days for engineer! You say you invest millions and increase prices. Been with you since 2010. Why is it so difficult to log a complaint on the phone too? Shocking & ridiculous service. My contract is due in 2 months.

  • yiuonmw
    Yiuon (@yiuonmw) reported

    @virginmedia Nah, this is not on. What is this UK side internet issues going on the past few weeks. What is the estimated turn around on a full resolution?

  • nozzla
    James Norris (@nozzla) reported

    @virginmedia WiFi and TV not working this morning and can't seem to fix it. Is the service down?

  • Gaztaz1
    Gary T (@Gaztaz1) reported

    @virginmedia just to let you know your customer support is crap, 14 days I will be without broadband, caused by some other company digging the road up. The phone calls and emails to get a date has been a joke, then they didnt turn up. Absolute shower of shite

    @JeanDifford It's made very clear that you do if you want to: 'Watch or record live TV on any pay TV service, like Sky, Virgin Media or EE TV. Watch live TV on streaming services like YouTube, Channel 4, Amazon Prime Video or any international channels'. I don't want a criminal record.
