    Why @virginmedia did it take 6 hours to downgrade our package to just broadband on your chat functionality. We got there eventually.. but not after multiple upsell tries and much frustration. It's like the poor person on the end of the chat only makes money when he upsells...

  • vetlocksmith
    Veteran Locksmiths (@vetlocksmith) reported from Fareham, England

    @virginmedia Just to confirm the customer services on the phone said the issue was your end not the router. This shouldn’t take 24hrs to sort for such a large provider

    @JulieSchollick @virginmedia Ours was down last thursday in Portsmouth. Couldn't work as work from home. Lots of people are having major problems with Virgin x

    @virginmedia It was supposed to be yesterday. Phoned customer services yesterday evening but didn't help, phoned again this morning and now finally activated

    @virginmedia what a surprise, even after cancelling my service with you I’m still getting bills!!! I cannot believe your customer service is awful even after leaving.

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia So you’re not going to do anything about it, despite knowing it’s destined to let me down. Exactly the same attitude as the rest of virgin. The problem is, it’s taken almost 4 months. This is the issue; deep rooted - Virgin reps don’t care

  • bengood82788338
    Ben Goodwin (@bengood82788338) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I have not been able to connect to the Internet for well over 48 hours now, can't work, watch TV or even listen to the radio as no 4g or 5g signal at home. Not happy

    Yeah I'm just gonna point out that I couldn't give a **** about the boxing Boxing is a sport that's become corrupt like the Brazilian government, money driven like a Latin American drug lord, so yeah, I'm not paying £25, on top of the £126 I pay to @virginmedia every month

  • rahim94
    Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    At this rate, Virgin Media is gonna have to change their name because that's bound to offend some woke idiot somewhere 🙄 #BBCQT

  • DragonWILL300
    Jason Willoughby (@DragonWILL300) reported from Waterlooville, England

    @virginmedia you claim to have restored the WiFi problem, not according to everyone around the country… your service over the last couple of weeks has been diabolical!

  • enkeli85
    Clare Old (@enkeli85) reported from Southampton, England

    Disconnect from @virginmedia on 28 Feb. Still get charged a month bill on 1 Mar & been told I'll both need to wait 45 days for my refund & that it will be credited the same day. Great help for budgeting & doesn't help that customer service chat couldn't understand the issue 🙄

  • MikeWalker2012
    Mike Walker (@MikeWalker2012) reported from Fareham, England

    @virginmedia Honestly, I tried contacting customer support & they didn't care, so I don't think there's anything further you can do, the functionality of 360 is hopeless, doesn't come anywhere near as good as the old TiVo box. I just need to dump the overpriced VM service as soon as possible.

  • SteveWasteney
    Steve (@SteveWasteney) reported from Netley, England

    @virginmedia Customer service is still the poorest of all the media companies I see. Can't use live chat without it dropping out, can't phone because the menu system doesn't cover what you want to talk about. Do you even have an e mail address to contact. I have had enough!!!

  • formula1girl
    Sarah-Jane Finch (@formula1girl) reported from Eastleigh, England

    @virginmedia So I won’t have 4+ months of grief, demands for an account that is cancelled and debt collectors letters for that account then? That’s a relief as your behaviour with my account has worn me down whilst grieving for my Dad but it’s not stopped you….

  • vinnie_davis
    Vinnie Davis (@vinnie_davis) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia me again. To be clear after you canceled my 90 year old mother's contract and cut her off without warning leaving her, isolated from emergency support and assistance, are you going to repay the credit of her account or adding theft to company policy. @Ofcom

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia Virgin are compensating me £5.25 a day. That’s £787. Two years of free service because they couldn’t organise a piss up in a brewery

    @virginmedia why is my internet not working PO6 postcode

  • formula1girl
    Sarah-Jane Finch (@formula1girl) reported from Eastleigh, England

    @virginmedia Im only unwilling to use the chat as after today’s conversation by phone with the 2 departments I got told could sort out my issue & they couldn’t I am emotionally broken.

    @virginmedia please can you advise if there is an outage in PO5 area. I've had no Internet from about midnight tonight and also on Sunday night #noservice

    Having consistent problems with my @virginmedia broadband, & have just had the update that they hope to resolve the problem by Tuesday... I work from home, so how will it work to not have access to the internet for the next 2-3 days? I'm having to hotspot my pc.

  • HatedDesign
    Hated Designs (Jamie) (@HatedDesign) reported

    @Afctopgooner @virginmedia mines out and the sites only telling me "We can’t connect to the broadband kit in your home" rather than telling me if theres an issue or not

  • dobbin1957
    Dobbin1957 (@dobbin1957) reported

    @virginmedia so after 3 days a week or so back without broadband, landline or TV, and no sign of compensation and only the most glib apology, our service is off again today and will be off all day according to their status checker. Not good enough. Time to go.

  • HopeForTo

    @virginmedia major outage and nothing on X about it

  • MrZacJamesB
    Mr B’s History (@MrZacJamesB) reported

    @virginmedia has had at least 3 outages in the past week in my area. Becoming all too common and I work from home… my phone signal (for data usage) with O2 is also conveniently incredibly poor. Is there something we should be aware of?

  • Bargainhunter85
    Simon Fitzgerald 🇺🇦 (@Bargainhunter85) reported

    @SteWhoPlays @virginmedia Had the same problem. They give you yodel to use so they must get a notification it’s been sent but then bill you because they haven’t checked in the equipment 😩

  • MakelyStudio
    Ali@Makely (@MakelyStudio) reported

    the thing AI has never once been able to do is walk into a room, understand the real problem before anyone's articulated it, and make a call that changes the direction of the product. I've done that at Sky, Virgin Media, NatWest and Citibank. that's still the job. and it always will be.

  • LisaPatten2
    Lisa (@LisaPatten2) reported

    Absolute quality service from @virginmedia as always. Broadband not working all morning, it might be fixed by 7pm, whoop whoop. 150 quid a month well spent. Daylight robbery.
