  • the_jackson71 Nigel Jackson (@the_jackson71) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @virginmedia I have only been a customer for 2 days and I have to say your customer service is shockingly bad. I have called the helpline and also the text message service and both have been poor and unable to help.

  • NDSapsed Nikki✨⚽️💋 (@NDSapsed) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @virginmedia ITV down and C4, sort it out

  • jj_phoenix66 JJ_phoenix (@jj_phoenix66) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia We turned everything off overnight & service had resumed this morning.checked yr svs system last night & there were reported failures in colchester & around the UK.Having been a prior customer o f20 years, whenever it rains then sunny, you always have issues!

  • j2kadd1 Andrew Everson (@j2kadd1) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @virginmedia Yeah default =tab, it may be normal for you but not any other provider or router manufacturer. Clearly no point in complaining about a terrible user experience I will just have to buy a router and put yours into the modem mode (which it will probably lose after a update)

  • au_somemum Au_somemum (@au_somemum) reported from Felixstowe, England

    @virginmedia Hi in recording hiccups are lots of shows we have never watched or asked for but it says we have deleted. In scheduled recordings there is only one show... Which we set to record.

  • NicholasNeale Nick Neale (@NicholasNeale) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @virginmedia I think they’ve cancelled my service, they didn’t give me s chance to speak again after terminating the call

  • Kegmanplays Keg Man Plays (@Kegmanplays) reported from Ipswich District, England

    Having a couple of Internet issues because @virginmedia think that 0.18mbps is a fine speed for the Internet. Hopefully a router reset will resolve this... And then I'm live

  • lukeredpath Luke Redpath (@lukeredpath) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia trying to find your TV only plans on your website is a nightmare. Can’t do anything on your slow clunky mobile website.

  • MichaelGagaHale Michael Gaga-Hale (@MichaelGagaHale) reported from Colchester, England

  • QuintonAndy Andy Quinton (@QuintonAndy) reported from Sproughton, England

    @virginmedia waited in all day...still waiting for delivery of my new box...which you’ve txt me 4 times to tell me it’s on its way...and your telephone staff told me 7 times.... totally over virgin atm, terrible service everytime!!!

  • jimaxyn Jimmy Regan (@jimaxyn) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I spoke to the team, they will arrange a repayment, my issue is that when you want the money, even if it's on the wrong day, you get it instantly, when I demand a refund it's 4-5 business days and that means I incur charges due to your mistake

  • MichaelGagaHale Michael Gaga-Hale (@MichaelGagaHale) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Now its 1600 tomorrow. Pathetic really, no explication for the fault or reason for delaying fix time.

  • Da_Hayts Mark Hayton (@Da_Hayts) reported from Colchester, England

  • smsm1 Shaun McDonald 🇪🇺 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@smsm1) reported from Bramford, England

    @larsz @Azrael808 @virginmedia The crap upload speed that Virgin Media provide and the fact they usually hide it, is why I won't touch them with a barge pole.

  • bp93_x Bec🦋 (@bp93_x) reported

    @virginmedia had no picture on my TV when using my virgin media box for 2 months now. Engineer come round and the issue is still not fixed. Being told now it’s due to my TV even though we’ve never had issues before. Disgraceful service especially for how much you charge a month.

  • hannah_022106 ᴮᴱhannah⁷🧈 (@hannah_022106) reported

    @virginmedia No just that they will ring me back in 24 hours. So I have no Wi-Fi for another day. I thought getting a new hub would insure I receive a higher quality network but obviously not.

  • MurrayAlanLee DREAMVIEW ESTATES (@MurrayAlanLee) reported

    @virginmedia Its an S&R issue ? Receptionist has escalated to an Area Field manager (in between been texted now delayed to 22/12! Will the engineer be a guy in a red suit with a white beard? #santa

  • CryptoBizUK Crypto Business Directory (@CryptoBizUK) reported

    @virginmedia Is there an outage today? I've had no internet all day. Restarted the router 3 times and that didn't do it.

  • ta6a Tasha (@ta6a) reported

    @virginmedia i think I should just cancel and get another broadband provider, it will be quicker

  • CollegeJocks CollegeJocks (@CollegeJocks) reported

    @virginmedia I am waiting for somebody to call back , but how long is a piece of string . In all my adult life i have never been spoken to like that . No way should that person be in customer service.

  • abbazhuzh1974 ABBAZHUZH💜19741982 (@abbazhuzh1974) reported

    @virginmedia I need the phone number to head office as calling the usual customer service number I am just going round in circles talking to members of your team and I need the problem I am having with your broadband resolving.

  • SenseiBikerDad SenseiBikerDad (@SenseiBikerDad) reported

    @virginmedia 1/4 Disgusted with the performance of my broadband & the complete lack of customer care. Have called VM 8 TIMES over 2 wks to resolve this issue. I pay for 1gb but am getting 60-300 & intermittent connection drops. Technician's been out. Not followed up. Have had to

  • Mr_S_David David💎Just David ( Feliz Navidad ) (@Mr_S_David) reported

    @Ofcom @virginmedia They only cover for loss of service for 48 hours which is absurd, they’re getting away with customers having no service for 24 hours, if I ordered steak & chips and paid for steak & chips, I would expect steak & chips, seemingly VM don’t see it this way! Thanks for the response!

  • sarahcorrigan Sarah Corrigan (@sarahcorrigan) reported

    @virginmedia sorry, I only just saw your message. Im sorry about ranting yesterday. I was just so fed up. I’ve raised a complaint and written about my experience to Philipp Wohland with a learning idea. You used common sense to the problem! Virgin need more like you! Happy to chat until 1330
