  • PopePower
    William Pope (@PopePower) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia This letter was never received. No attempt to contact us was made. was initially told by Virgin that they thought the account holder had called to have the account disconnected. I have since tried to rectify the situation by calling Virgin to request our account be reconnected.

    I should've known better than to extend my contract with @virginmedia so much service issues. Today it's no Internet, bet they'll say its my equipment #standardanswers

    @virginmedia No. It’s a link to this Twitter exchange. Please send me an email address so I can lodge an official complaint. Thanks

    @virginmedia no TV for 24 hours, been on the phone for 50 minutes, guy has now disappeared, left me hanging on the line! The service is so bad!

    Luke Archer (@Luke_Arch3r) reported from Camden Town, England

    Trying to cancel my @virginmedia broadband because I’m moving and I’ve been on hold for 33 minutes out of the 36 minutes (and counting...) of this call. Will cost my phone bill a fortune by the end of it! Very poor service, don’t think I’ll use them when I need broadband again!

    @Fonzarelli_90 @virginmedia They've got a problem up their end. (Ooer)

  • CasellesEdu
    Edu Caselles (@CasellesEdu) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia thanks for such a helpful and amazing customer support service. After 40 min waiting to talk to one of your agents, he complained he could not hear me properly, I asked him to bear with me while I plugged my headset and 30s later, he hanged up. 1/2

  • caillea
    marty bogert (@caillea) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia Yes, I did. I said that in both my posts. Three times even before and after I rebooted my router. Other people in postcodes near me are reporting the same problem. It reports back that all is well. But there’s no connection to the internet.

  • caillea
    marty bogert (@caillea) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia no internet connection since 10pm last night. Router rebooted multiple times. Service test run 3 times no fault found. Area reference 15 east London.

  • JClinton37
    JC1980 (@JClinton37) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia Can someone answer the phone. Last week when I got rid of sky and got virgin installed you had someone on the phone to me in record time the last two days I’ve had issues no one available. I’m within my 14 days so I’m gonna cancel if u don’t respond properly

  • AngusTeee
    Angus Teee (@AngusTeee) reported from Paddington, England

    @virginmedia I see. Thanks. There is no point ringing your ‘customer service’ number - I don’t have the time or battery to listen to the same four songs on a loop for over an hour then be told nothing helpful. Been there, done that.

  • tobyeverett14
    Toby Everett (@tobyeverett14) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia It’s honestly embarrassing how ludicrously incompetent this company is, read the previous tweets. I do not have high hopes for the text service but we shall see.

    @virginmedia @seraybot Yes I’ve run the service test three times last night and this morning before posting here and I’ve rebooted the router several times.

  • Amanda_Davey12
    Amanda Davey (@Amanda_Davey12) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia The link was broken, I have made a complaint online, you do have my phone number however, as our technology provider, someone should have called!

  • Amanda_Davey12
    Amanda Davey (@Amanda_Davey12) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I find it insulting that you infer it is a problem my end! Once again, the level of customer care is dreadful, and no fixing of the actual problem that we pay a monthly premium for!

    @virginmedia Can someone just call me? I've had enough of trying to speak to anyone on webchat or WhatsApp or your help page. I was promised a complete refit today. Nothing.

  • subhajitb
    Subhajit Banerjee (@subhajitb) reported

    @virginmedia Now it’s showing broadband issues in area with expected fix by tomorrow. Not great!

  • abbienicolex
    abocado 🥑 (@abbienicolex) reported

    @virginmedia we had to log a complaint earlier as we’ve been without wifi for over a week, keep being promised technicians will come out and they never do. We were told someone would call by 5 today, they haven’t. Who can I actually talk to about this?

  • Blacksmith3989
    Steven R. Smith (@Blacksmith3989) reported

    Got a call from a pushy @virginmedia sales rep who led me on about a free speed upgrade to my broadband, before quietly mentioning it will be more money. I barely get the speeds I'm meant to, and constant service interruptions 4 - 5 times a day.

  • DunlopRach
    Rach D (@DunlopRach) reported

    @virginmedia I have just received a new contract from Virgin Media for 18 months and I never asked for it. All broadband, tv and phone are no longer working. Confused and cannot get through to customer services - trying 45 mins!!! Anyone experienced this. Thanks

  • FreddieBujko
    Freddie Bujko (@FreddieBujko) reported

    @virginmedia our install date was today. Technician came and installed box / router, but says a cable needs to be ran to the house and left. No idea when this is going to be sorted and our app implies our service is up and running. How can we get confirmation of a new technician?

  • dominikabolon
    Dominika (@dominikabolon) reported

    @virginmedia since you guys respond here better than on your phones… why has my internet been down for 5 days with no response from your team? 😒 #virginmedia

  • abbienicolex
    abocado 🥑 (@abbienicolex) reported

    @virginmedia Not any more, someone came out to ‘fix’ our wifi on Monday, found an issue with the cable outside. We have been told someone will come back every day this week and no one has. They fixed the cable we are just waiting for someone to come and connect to the house again.

  • Blacksmith3989
    Steven R. Smith (@Blacksmith3989) reported

    So I sure as hell am not paying MORE for the shoddy service @virginmedia already provides me. I've been a customer for over 5 years and my complaints are constantly ignored. Maybe it's time to move. Hell, Sky has much better prices. All cheaper than my current package.

  • matt18barnes
    Matt ‘Barnsey’ Barnes (@matt18barnes) reported

    @virginmedia No, all devices connect then disconnect straight away. The engineer that came said there was a loose wire in the box across the road and fixed it but still having issues! This has gone on for over 2 weeks! We have to use phone data and our landline doesn’t work
