  • Helenf78 Helen Fuller (@Helenf78) reported from Welwyn Garden City, England

    @virginmedia I was told that the third option 'didn't exist' and I'd have to buy myself out of my contract or cancel it and go elsewhere... After being offered pittance for a phone you charged me £900 for (the price hardly went up if the phone was immaculate by the way...) I was basically

  • JessLloydWright Jessica Lloyd-Wright (@JessLloydWright) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve tried that lots of times but it says no known issues in the area. We’ve tried rebooting and switching on/off loads of times too. It’s getting ridiculous. Could someone please come back with a reply on what is directly happening with tv/internet in the SW18 area

  • CraigFamilyBlog Hayley & Gavin (@CraigFamilyBlog) reported from St Albans, England

    Gav and I have had no mobile phone service for 3 days, but I have no service to call @virginmedia to let them know! It happens far too regularly. Just spent the morning searching for a new deal. @O2 looks like the best so far!

  • Helenf78 Helen Fuller (@Helenf78) reported from Welwyn Garden City, England

    @virginmedia I reset my router at least four times a day. If I was to ring every time my Internet dropped out I'd constantly be on my phone. This isn't and can't be 'a fault', the service is just absolutely crap!

  • unicawn wendb (@unicawn) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia please create an option to remove all BBC channels from TiVo boxes @BBCWorld @BBCRadio4 @BBCBreakfast so we who don’t want to have bbc channels can avoid paying a license fee. I pay a license fee and I object to having to sign in to watch catch up, I rather lose BBC

  • RicciHammond Ricci (@RicciHammond) reported from Ware, England

    @virginmedia If only they could help.. put on hold for 32mins while they investigate, get a different person who doesn’t know anything of the call and I go through the same process. Now telling me engineer was rescheduled for 20th (the original date I was given weeks ago).. Not good enough..

  • JCELT1 James (@JCELT1) reported from Hertfordshire, England

    @virginmedia Only wireless wifi... the router currently shows no signs of fault either. Have attempted switch off/ on to reset service. No change.

  • _amycollins Amy (@_amycollins) reported from Stevenage District, England

    Just been on the phone for over an hour to @virginmedia and received awful customer service with the call ending with no resolution to my query. Apparently loyal customers don’t count for anything and it’s just new customers that get the best prices 😡

  • flybymike Mike✈️ (@flybymike) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia well still no fixes/ability to make contact about the issues on going with my TV/Broadband even though you say it works fine. Not impressed. Time for a change I feel 🙄

  • domgreen Dominic Green (🇬🇧 Not my PM 🗳️) (@domgreen) reported from Welwyn Garden City, England

    . @virginmedia tech support have just made my day! #security #plaintextpasswords 🔓

  • DansHorizon Dan G (@DansHorizon) reported from Harlow, England

    @virginmedia That may be the case however it should be solved at the customers earliest convenience, not the companies. The fact that people rely on your service to work from home, and rely on your service to watch events that they pay for, this is not acceptable. Especially for the price.

  • LRB172 Lee Brown (@LRB172) reported from Epping, England

    @virginmedia @MoneyTelegraph 9 months and counting for broadband to be fixed. Seriously fed up now. Please just fix it or let me go to another provider without charging....

  • nickpeddle234 nasty nick (@nickpeddle234) reported from Harlow, England

    @virginmedia any problems in the cm194 area

  • Helenf78 Helen Fuller (@Helenf78) reported from Welwyn Garden City, England

    @virginmedia Now while I understand that you guys did not bust my phone, I'm livid that 'Oliver' just naffed off and kept me sitting like an idiot for 45 minutes just to be told that he hasn't told me the truth anyway!! I just want a new phone!! 😭😭

  • Bridgen2far Lee Bridgen 🔶️ 🇬🇧🇪🇺 #FBPE (@Bridgen2far) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia your service status claims no issues in LU2, but my Wi-Fi isn't working. Tried resetting my hub... nothing.

  • AllanFenn Allan Fenn (@AllanFenn) reported from Waltham Abbey, England

    @virginmedia Worst Customer Service I have ever experienced 😡 Left hand doesn't know the right hand doing ! Consider the contract null & void @SkyUK On my way

  • REDROBB1967 ROB FARACE (@REDROBB1967) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia Thanks but yodal have just brushed me off & after being online for an hour with their web chat so it is being delivered tomorrow & I have to wait in again. Really poor experience & they are not doing you any favours. Have no confidence in them or that anyone actually came today

  • SPQPR1 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿steve patrick (@SPQPR1) reported from Harlow, England

  • AllanFenn Allan Fenn (@AllanFenn) reported from Waltham Abbey, England

    @virginmedia 5 different answers from different agents The best one was yesterday whilst on hold after being transferred to another person , waited half hour then they cut me off ! Finally got through to Nathan who is currently trying to resolve this issue, again !
