    Changing ISP to Virginmedia; the stress & hours of my life lost, trying to resolve issues trying to register an account, & porting home phone number WOW! I'm informed their systems are unique, this = hassle. #virginmedia #consumers #shoponline

    @virginmedia I have that already, and the issue exists in the middle floor, which is why I want to get a booster for that floor, and also enable my laptop to plugged in on that floor, in the office that I have

    Jessica Boatright (@oh_so_boatie) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia Yes, issues showing. I've had to go to a cafe to work - so now as well as lost hours of income I'm down bus fare and refreshments so that I can use the the WiFi.

    I will not be ordering a movie from @virginmedia store ever again. Ordered a movie and never received the dvd. Every time I try to talk to someone about it I get different excuses why I haven’t received the dvd. #badcustomerservice #virginmedia

    Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia Er no, if you had read the thread in its entirety, you will see that I said I was getting someone to look at how to organise the internal network on the house, and I would be leaving at the end of my contract, in 17 months. I would not recommend Virgins services to anyone.

    Obi-Dan (@djn2911) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    My @virginmedia wifi does not reach my bedroom and they are not selling anymore of their new mesh network pods so i am thinking of leaving them. Any recommendations for good wifi providers?

    @StevenKiberton @virginmedia But when the internet n tv goes down fur even 30 seconds everyone’s on socials via mobile moaning thy can’t watch re runs of Jeremy Kyle or lose women

  • Matthew56242945
    Matthew Cooper (@Matthew56242945) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    Virgin Media fixed the phone issue, a local fault, so I rang Royal Mail to get my money back. The phone went out again during the call. If I was a person with anxiety and depression issues this might be a major problem. Oh wait, I am a person.....

  • Clive_Burt
    Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia You can tell it's the weekend when your SONOS speaker is not able to stream radio on a consistent basis, due to intermittent internet problems, which I reported two weeks ago, got a visit on the following Wednesday, got told the installation was poor and left.

  • Clive_Burt
    Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia Because I wouldn't connect a laptop to an unknown (to me) website, through the router, where the could alledgely monitor connection speeds. When your engineer visited he had to escalate the issue to your network team. Because I had 1 downstream & 1 upstream not the 24 down and 4.

    @virginmedia help no phone service in Lincoln can’t phone you off mobile or home phone tried on line site no help at all

  • RichardFarrell8
    Richard Farrell (@RichardFarrell8) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    Looking for advice. Trying to cancel @virginmedia as they keep saying I owe them £168 but they should have credited me £70 but they have debited me instead. Made several calls over the past weeks to no joy. Logged a formal complaint to no avail. Advice is much appreciated 🤯

  • ONLYONEGIBBO
    GIBBO (@ONLYONEGIBBO) reported from Waddington, England

    So @virginmedia refused to let @SkyUK transfer our landline so now all services have been removed by SKY. How can people work from home when you give a fix date of 3 December - thus needs sorting now - no TV, no WiFi no phone

  • EmcdNotts
    Erin McDaid (@EmcdNotts) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia Going round in circles using 'support' options listed on App. Our broadband has been intermittent since yesterday afternoon. Restarted hub 3 times. Test still showing intermittent fault. Why do you make it so difficult to contact someone to check it's being sorted?

  • Clive_Burt
    Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @SimonTa44447286 @virginmedia @simonkeenan007 With my discounts, my monthly payment was £63, end of discounts £169 + £4 price rise (discounts due to outage 18 months ago). Spent an hour haggling ... revises price to £68.

  • Clive_Burt
    Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia It took until 18:30 for your engineer to call me. Even now the service keeps dropping out ....I hope your techs onto the problem

  • chris_litcons
    chris whitney (@chris_litcons) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia Waited 30 minutes on hold and then you cut me off before I could speak. None of your options work to get my internet problem sorted.

    Richard (@visitandtravel) reported

    @IainSankey @virginmedia These large companies Sky etc are so used to making huge amounts from the TV/broadband services - they are living on the assumption that most people will not switch. It is greed on their part, or they just do not give a damn.

  • MacBirt22
    Andrew Birt (@MacBirt22) reported

    @virginmedia yet again let down by your company, first day of the football season, beers in the fridge, mates around and we end up listening to the game on the radio, your ability to utterly ruin people’s weekend is on another level, am I surprised NO, a complete shambles

  • gyoldsingleman
    oldman (@gyoldsingleman) reported

    @virginmedia How does this help when u want to watch on tv ????

  • LiamBolger7
    Liam Bolger (@LiamBolger7) reported

    @virginmedia @CliveR39 I still think it is not a technical issue but some sort of contractual issue between Sky and Virgin. Next step will be ‘technical issue’ logging on to Sky sports as a VM customer.

  • PeteNCFC1862
    Pete (@PeteNCFC1862) reported

    @Derek959Derek @RayJones34 All the big 3 providers do it via the Good Things Foundation, apart from EE and BT who have there own arrangements for helping with data poverty. These help people on benefits so official status and a NI number is needed . Virgin Media O2 Vodaphone 3 do it via Databank .

  • stephenm68
    Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported

    @1RavC @virginmedia I’ve been without broadband for 22 days but because they know it’s an outage in our area a @virginmedia engineer has been “on their way” since 27 July. Have pursued every available line of enquiry but no information as to what the ****** is the reason for it not being fixed

  • Carolestfc1
    Carole Yeo 🌻 (@Carolestfc1) reported

    @virginmedia You've been "working on it" for days. I dont want to have to watch on a poxy little screen I want the service you get paid to provide. How much are you refunding sky sports customers for the loss of service ?

  • eirwenjulia
    JulieH (@eirwenjulia) reported

    @IainSankey @virginmedia We left them years ago, nightmare. Had to explain to one of their agents what a postcode was...at that point I realised we had to part company. I have never regretted getting rid of them.
