  • Kagey_infohub Kate Gordon (@Kagey_infohub) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia I'll check, but slow connection and frequent drop is ongoing. We looked at switching but didn't move as not enough confidence in alternative ISPs tbh.

  • lukiee Luke T (@lukiee) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia I can’t get into my account online.. I have changed my password but it is still my my details are incorrect.. help

  • ObsessiveJohn John Sanders  (@ObsessiveJohn) reported from Wheaton Aston, England

    @Appolotech @virginmedia I’ve had really intermittent quality of service with the Virgin BB. Switching to SKY end of month.

  • markhipwell1990 Mark Hipwell (@markhipwell1990) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia So now I have to ring to cancel because that's too much or give you a chance to fix the price. Both take time out of my day when we only did this less then 2 months ago.

  • lukiee Luke T (@lukiee) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia Still go having issues :(

  • ianl2001 Ian lee (@ianl2001) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia please explain customer service to me...on hold for 16 minutes, then cut off #jokeservice

  • GrumpyXMatelot Captain Buzzkill RN (@GrumpyXMatelot) reported from Telford and Wrekin, England

    @virginmedia 40 minutes and I finally get to talk to someone before being put on hold again as I'm bringing transfered because that person from @virginmedia can't help despite going through a multi choice option list that be part of the Turing test

  • ObsessiveJohn John Sanders  (@ObsessiveJohn) reported from Shifnal, England

    @virginmedia Unreliable & intermittent Broadband, no Sky Atlantic but most importantly very poor customer service as justified by this thread - I’d rather rather speak to a person real time

  • GrumpyXMatelot Captain Buzzkill RN (@GrumpyXMatelot) reported from Telford and Wrekin, England

    @virginmedia 35 minutes trying to talk to someone and nearly two hours from your how can I help tweet. No wonder I'm leaving

  • JTaylor69 Jordan Taylor 🎗️ (@JTaylor69) reported from Madeley, England

    @EE Hi Mark. In the last few months, signal has been on and off like a yoyo, with total downtime last week which made working from home difficult. @virginmedia also died too, so wasn't a great day 😅 Other half uses Voxi and had no issues with connectivity.

  • GrumpyXMatelot Captain Buzzkill RN (@GrumpyXMatelot) reported from Telford and Wrekin, England

    @virginmedia Tbh the 5 minutes of dead air before I put the phone down on your colleague who was "just seeing what she could do" didn't help your cause much

  • pete62jackson Pete Jackson (@pete62jackson) reported from Lawley Bank, England

    @danslee @virginmedia Keep going @danslee We are all watching @virginmedia and thinking I wouldn't want to be with a provider with such draconian customer services #freedanfromvirgin

  • chrispicken Chris Picken (@chrispicken) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @HannahWestwood @virginmedia It’s on, it’s just slow. Supposed to be 350 and I’m getting 20.

  • TheCarlFord Carl Ford 🐝 🏎⚽️🥊 (@TheCarlFord) reported from Kinvere, England

    I can’t call you because @ThreeUKSupport are providing a crap service and have been for 3 weeks because of a bit of rain! Time to have a chat with @virginmedia @O2 @VodafoneUK I think, neither #Sky not #Three value customers. @Three_Is_Broken

  • elainemills123 Elaine mills (@elainemills123) reported from Telford and Wrekin, England

  • Griffomiester Stuart (@Griffomiester) reported from Willenhall, England

    @virginmedia Have a word with yourself, this has been going on for 12 months. How about you send an engineer to fix once and for all

  • Kagey_infohub Kate Gordon (@Kagey_infohub) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia Not sure tbh- it took at least 2 hours for the update to complete. Our connection frequently drops and is slow.

  • eurobob17 chris (@eurobob17) reported from Wolverhampton, England

  • Wobbly74 Wobbly (@Wobbly74) reported

    @virginmedia now into day 4 of the great virgin broadband SW19 outage. No internets as far as the eye can see, just patchy mobile data. But at least I'm still paying for the privilege.

  • RupalSutar Rupal Sutar (@RupalSutar) reported

    @virginmedia my internet has been out since last night. I've tried all the troubleshooting suggestions but still no luck. Please help. I need the internet urgently today.

  • Ghost_A316 Ghost (@Ghost_A316) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah it’s now updated. Thank you, sorry if I was off with you it’s very frustrating when we have one working from home relying on your service and having to take a day off due to the issues which is resulting in loss of pay

  • ryanbhambra67 Ryan Bhambra (@ryanbhambra67) reported

    @virginmedia Called virgin to book for a phone socket to be moved 5ft, told it’s £99. Outrage as I was a paying client ( bt don’t charge). Put thorough to another dept, put the phone down, called again, explained again, i wanted to leave, was told to bugger off at the end.

  • MissS__NQT Miss S (@MissS__NQT) reported

    @virginmedia The service status has not shown any issues in my area and the Internet speeds have been getting progressively worse for a number of weeks now unfortunately.

  • TheGreenDevil20 The Green Devil ⏱ (@TheGreenDevil20) reported

    @flossybball @virginmedia The ******* worst

  • frutysheikh Fruity Sheikh (@frutysheikh) reported from Oadby and Wigston, England

  • joseletemuniz Jose Muñiz (@joseletemuniz) reported

    @virginmedia @CherylHoleQueen Of course your service is a disgrace. This is what you spend your time and resources on.

  • Ghost_A316 Ghost (@Ghost_A316) reported

    @virginmedia It’s not that but speaking to the neighbours this morning they are having the same issues however your saying their is no fault in the area but clearly their is… not being funny but you should be sending someone out to the area when their is an issue

  • dannyvalzTTV Danny V (@dannyvalzTTV) reported

    @virginmedia I'm happy to do that. Is there a direct dial for second/third line support? I've dealt with first line too many times and done all the usual troubleshooting steps.
