  • yogi7592 Yv (@yogi7592) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia it’s sad that you are still using covid as an excuse not to provide any technical help. Done everything your website tells me to but still have a issue with my broadband. How do I speak to someone about it. Not very happy.

  • marksperry2 mark sperry (@marksperry2) reported from Rearsby, England

    @virginmedia sort your customer service out! I’ve spent 2 days trying to sort out my fibre optic, to be cut off 4 times on hold for 6.5hrs lied to 3 times transferred to India 8 times, still no further forward. #pleasehelp #FirstWorldProblems #shockingcustomerservice

  • colin_haynes Colin Haynes (@colin_haynes) reported

    @virginmedia It was more that the discount was described as such but the more we got into the conversation the clearer it became that I was subscribing to an O2 service I neither wanted or needed. Now it’s gone through and I’ve got to cancel it

  • GoodGriefLouise Louise Pattison (@GoodGriefLouise) reported

    Virgin media email account down … again!!!

  • gunit22 Ian (@gunit22) reported

    @virginmedia So 4pm has been and gone. Still no service. Any suggestions?

  • kayschofield50 kay schofield (@kayschofield50) reported

    @virginhelp @Virgin @virginmedia I’ve been up since 7am and STILL WAITING. My day messed up, not been able to get my week’s shopping and a horrible feeling no one will come and then I will lose my phone serve too. Frustrated and angry….tired too over 8 wasted hours 😡

  • TombDubs Tomb (@TombDubs) reported

    @virginmedia Hey, yes I’ve called them maybe twice a week for the last 7 weeks and they can’t help. Just had an engineer turn up but the cable hasn’t been pulled so couldn’t do anything. Very frustrating

  • derek_ling Derek Ling (@derek_ling) reported

    @virginmedia Well, I left it a few days. Tried a mobile, another browser (firefox), another computer... none of it is working. Our landline is broken and I can't call using that (I really don't want to have to sit on a phone call either). Fact is, I want to sort out my bill and I can't.

  • Courtney_Barts Courtney Maddison (@Courtney_Barts) reported

    @virginmedia wifi has been down all day. My mother and myself have lost a days work as we work from home. We have called you 3 times and been told to “wait another 3 hours” ridiculous. And apparently you can only recompense us £16 “as a gesture of good will” Please do better.

  • ClaireD63954352 Claire Doyle (@ClaireD63954352) reported

    @virginmedia No known faults - this is a common problem since Virgin took over the contract. Told on the day that the connection in the exchange they had to use was intermittent faulty and it has never been changed. Just fed up of being left on hold, and they can’t call back!

  • SharpSebastian Little Sebastian (@SharpSebastian) reported

    @virginmedia so four months after closing my account and paying in full, I'm getting calls and letters telling me to pay up or my details will be passed onto debt collectors. A quick search online shows you guys do this often. I don't even live at the same address. Fix this

  • erikaconway erika conway (@erikaconway) reported

    @virginmedia does anybody actually handle cancellation calls? I’ve now been charge £63+ the cost of 3 calls and over an hour of my life to try and stop you charging me for a service I cancelled at the start of April. Currently been sat on hold 30 mins. Joke.
