  • alandean1878 Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia Still a problem. Programmes we recorded Thurs & Friday are unwatchable (& not available on Catch Up for some reason)

  • claimsseven Stephen Smith M.D (Manic Depressive) (@claimsseven) reported from Seaforth, England

    Thanks @virginmedia for a wasted 5 minutes with one of your ops tonight, trying to flog me your 360 service which I didn't need or want. Can you just get your ops to cut straight to chase in future, instead of me telling them that I'm not interested 5 times!

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia Long conversation. There is definitely a problem which is not good as engineer was here Monday. Booked another visit for Friday evening. So no tv for me until Friday. Can't get Prime or Netflix. This is not satisfactory is it? I live alone, so I'm very angry.

  • CharlieIDIC IDIC (@CharlieIDIC) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia just found out as I’m an oomph customer on volt I should get broadband of 350 but getting 53 jitter is beyond a joke too. What happened?

  • waveyjane Jane Vickers (@waveyjane) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia your customer service use to be the best hence I’ve stayed for 25 years. Today I have been queued for over 3 hours talking to a BOT. Shocking service.

  • CharlieIDIC IDIC (@CharlieIDIC) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia Yes I know! They are doing essential works but you say broadband outage and you get data on your phone. That is a breach of trading standards as apparently you don’t do that

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia Engineer just left. Has sorted the problems with all 3 sets. Very considerate explaining everything to me.

  • alandean1878 Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I've been on to the Service Status line, no issues. Used My Virgin Media app no issues raised with Broadband or TV provision. Still picture break-ups on some channels.

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia I can't get Amazon Prime on 3 TVs now. There's a problem I can't solve. I need an engineer. Going to phone again.

  • alandean1878 Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia It's worst on 601 BBC News where either part or all of the screen pixilates. But it happens on other channels to a lesser degree.

  • CharlieIDIC IDIC (@CharlieIDIC) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia Planned work which is fine but the advert in writing and on the tv makes it sound good that you get data on your Virgin mobile if your broadband ever goes down. Just finding the contact for trading standards

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia I have 3 tv sets showing No SiGNAl. Absolutely fed up now. 3 new boxes Monday & problems with sets since. Now none is working. 😠😡

  • KeeganBig Frank Keegan (@KeeganBig) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia no service from 2nd box so phoned customer service. Automated voice says text with link will be sent. Call ends. Text arrived. Pressed link takes me to page which says that link isn't working. Customer service is a joke.

  • CharlieIDIC IDIC (@CharlieIDIC) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia are totally crap and lie. No broadband we will put it on your phone like! Call for 30 minutes beginning for help all I get is I understand

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @Lizzim18 @virginmedia Poor service. It's annoying isn't it?

  • KeeganBig Frank Keegan (@KeeganBig) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Yes. I am getting no service via the 2nd box whatsoever. The box light does not change from red. Tried switching off at the wall. Checked leads & have swapped over HDMI lead all to no avail.

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia Yesterday 3 new boxes installed after weeks of problems. Just turned on tv..no signal. Tried another, same. Phoned & told wait times r long. Advised go on line & try to sort it. I am not a feckin tv engineer but a paying customer who is thinking of going back to Sky.

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    Problem with @virginmedia in my area. Unable to watch @jamie_murray & @BrunoSoares82 To say I'm miffed is an understatement. 😠😠

  • mrmrjarrold Matthew Jarrold (@mrmrjarrold) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia No I just need someone to take ownership of the problem and sort it out

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia One tv is now working. The other 2 still saying No Signal. I haven't touched sets since engineer was here on Monday. Just used remote controls which I find inefficient.

  • ManikhamSharon Margy (@ManikhamSharon) reported

    @virginmedia, would you like me to pay my bill or not? I have just tried 4 times to pay it and can't no link has been sent when I have requested it tonight. Even though on the phone the automated service said a link had been sent to my mobile.

  • gallaghl0705 Lauren Gallagher (@gallaghl0705) reported

    @virginmedia COMPLAINT - no internet since lunchtime. I've been unable to work due to this. Told they aim to have it fixed by 22.30 for it to get to 22.30 and it be changed to 12.30 on the 28/02. Can you tell me when this will be fixed. I need this for working from home.

  • crazychimpjimbo James M (@crazychimpjimbo) reported

    @TheDarkJudge1 @virginmedia They don't actually care fullstop about customer service to existing customers you are just a legal binding contract from the moment you sign up!

  • RicoSmith_ Rico Smith (@RicoSmith_) reported

    Virgin Media has a garbage cancellation procedure where they try and extract as much data out of you whilst trying to offer you deals to stay. Do not sign up for their dark patterns.

  • gazbrisc Gary Paul Briscoe ( 💬🍪 ) (@gazbrisc) reported

    @virginmedia Thank you. I shall see what a new customer with @sky can get rather than an existing loyal customer with @virginmedia for the record I am out of my monthly contract and only rolling on month by month so can anything be done with that ??

  • gazbrisc Gary Paul Briscoe ( 💬🍪 ) (@gazbrisc) reported

    @virginmedia I am paying £145 a month. Going up by £22 in April. For this ?? @virginmedia I have been a loyal customer for years.

  • BTNStu Stu Can Play At That Game (@BTNStu) reported

    @virginmedia Is this just a chat-bot? Calling CS was the start of all the trouble. 🙄🙄

  • davbeau David Beaumont (@davbeau) reported

    @virginmedia Do you honestly think it good customer service to expect customers to have a public conversation with you? Your other contact options are failing too and you are grossly overcharging my 83 year old mother whilst blocking all meaningful contact options. Apparently deliberately.

  • GavlarMushing Gavin Mushing (@GavlarMushing) reported

    @virginmedia So when will this issue be resolved then? I work from home and need a stable connection. You’ve apologised since the 11th of Feb but not done anything about it.
