    Hi @virginmedia you did an update in my area for wifi yesterday. And my wifi hasn’t worked since. I have switched on and off a few times since and also retried to reinstall. I moved from sky a month ago to you due to wifi issues and I have them with you already.

  • CraigHannan4
    Craig Hannan (@CraigHannan4) reported from Ash, England

    @virginmedia Yes. And there customer service email. I also tried the contact number. But not accepting calls. Surely this should be automatically credited to me. I shouldn’t have to chase it. Sent loads of emails over the last few weeks now. I’ve just been ignored.

  • MikeBiscoe1
    Mike Biscoe (@MikeBiscoe1) reported from Reading, England

    If anyone is interested in how much @virginmedia are overcharging for their dreadful service, I’ve just been offered a price match on cancellation to move to a different supplier. £27.50/month for a service for which they originally increased price to £105/month

  • CarolRothy
    Carol Rothwell (@CarolRothy) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia hello. Please could you advise how on earth I get in touch with someone by phone??. I’ve spent 15 mins navigating website to try and get to a person rather than a bot. I need to report an equipment fault which isn’t service specific

  • KGirdler
    Katie Girdler (@KGirdler) reported from Guildford, England

    @virginmedia Spoken with someone today that has confirmed they've solved my problem. I am awaiting a confirmation email (don't hold much hope). We will see if I've been lied to AGAIN! #worstcustomerservice

  • wearliegig
    Wendy Earle (@wearliegig) reported from Guildford, England

    @virginmedia Appalling customer service! Im@trying to report the death of an account holder and can find no way of getting through. Waited on the phone line so long that it eventually went dead on me.

  • MikeBiscoe1
    Mike Biscoe (@MikeBiscoe1) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia *sigh*. Been directed to this many times. Had engineers referred many times. This is a persistent issue that raises its ugly head far too frequently

    Anybody having problems with @virginmedia in the Reading area ……..?

  • CRJG_
    Cameron🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@CRJG_) reported from Bracknell, England

    Huge congrats to @virginmedia for having a web chat service that is so bad that I joined the chat to upgrade my broadband, but after waiting for an eternity for replies I’m pretty much ready to just close my account

  • Chateauneuf64
    Bowlesy (@Chateauneuf64) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia And there you have the extent of VM customer care folks!

  • CM40UK
    CM40 (@CM40UK) reported from Blackwater, England

    @MoneySavingExp How about they just deliver consistent service? I am leaving Virginmedia and they are making it hard, there rules state if I don’t get the speeds promised they I can leave without penalties, I’ve had 7 times where I have connection in the last 3 days! @virginmedia @richardbranson

  • mattrose18
    Matt Rose (@mattrose18) reported from Farnborough, England

    @virginmedia TV is an issue. broadband is not. Tests are always either cannot connect at this time or say there is nothing wrong. Don’t see how my kit in the house can one minute have speeds on +300Mb to next to nothing?

  • LesleeRBarron
    𝗟𝗲𝘀𝗹𝗲𝗲 𝗕𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗼𝗻 🏳️‍🌈 🇺🇦 🍃💚🍃 (@LesleeRBarron) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Just had a call from Jerry at Virginmedia media wanting to help me mend my broadband issues (that I don’t have). After challenging him he told me to find the largest ***** & shove it up my arse!! Charming!! His No. 02038399963

  • Chateauneuf64
    Bowlesy (@Chateauneuf64) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia OK guys, could you ask your team behind the scenes to turn my BB signal up just a tad, you know, enough so it actually works? As your putting your prices up would be great to experience what I'm actually paying for now! Thanks

  • hoarp001
    Peter ***** (@hoarp001) reported from Fleet, England

    @virginmedia my broadband is running at 10mbps (supposed to be 200). The app has done a "scan" and it says there is a network error and check back in 24 hours. Problem is, it's still slow three days later and there appears to be no more help on offer. Now what?

  • psjarlo
    _jarl_ostensen (@psjarlo) reported from Guildford, England

    @virginmedia Service status is all green, which is wrong because there is known maintenance work happening. My point is that planned work should happen over night to reduce impact.

  • tashaj1984
    Natasha Gorrie (@tashaj1984) reported from Farnborough, England

    @virginmedia I have posted but not sure how a forum post will help. Can you advise of your official escalation complaint process

  • davedec60
    Dave Crocker (@davedec60) reported from Reading, England

    So @virginmedia once more we have an outage, how many times now in the last 3 months? NOT GOOD ENOUGH!! Currently looking at switching supplier

  • kirstyrosenunn
    Kirsty Nunn (@kirstyrosenunn) reported from Guildford, England

    Hey @virginmedia @virginhelp can you have a look at your wifi service in the Guildford area? It’s been patchy for weeks, now have had no connection on any device for the past 24 hours; as someone who works and studies from home a lot, this is quite worrying and frustrating

    Not gonna lie... @virginmedia could not have picked a worse moment to completely **** the bed 😑

    👾 (@Omersaeela) reported

    Hi @VirginMedia, my account has been locked and I’ve been trying to contact support for 2 days now with no response. Calls are not being answered at all. I urgently need help setting up my new WiFi device. This level of support is really disappointing. Have no option 👎

  • Jimmyboy35
    James Agg (@Jimmyboy35) reported

    @virginmedia I have now been on hold for my broadband and TV issues for over 2hours in total

  • Omersaeela
    👾 (@Omersaeela) reported

    Hi @virginmedia my account has been locked and I’ve been trying to contact support for over 3 hours with no response. I urgently need help because I’m trying to set up my new WiFi device. Calls are not being answered either. Terrible customer service 👎

  • freaksquid5
    graham bowyer (@freaksquid5) reported

    @virginmedia why is noone picking up my dad as been calling most of the day you have ripped them off for over 100 pound and your customer service is useless on the phone for 2 hrs and no one picked up

  • SiGallagher
    Simon Gallagher (@SiGallagher) reported

    @virginmedia It’s now 3 hours. Why has there been no message anywhere about the server issue affecting the site and the app?

  • amy_jo_23
    amy simpson (@amy_jo_23) reported

    @O2 since you have teamed up with @virginmedia my inter on my mobile has been awful signal keeps dropping driving me mad

  • Itslimiiited
    Limited (@Itslimiiited) reported

    @virginmedia What's the point in paying for a service, when its ****!

  • SiGallagher
    Simon Gallagher (@SiGallagher) reported

    So @virginmedia just ignore attempts to contact them on here, meaning a spam/fraud account replies in the comments to try and catch people out. In the absence of any actual help or comms from the official account, people will be caught out. And the website is broken so there's no other way to contact (phones are jam packed)

  • DavidSh77116164
    David Shaw (@DavidSh77116164) reported

    Is at @virginmedia broke? My services doesnt work, Web chat doesn't work, been on hold for ages. Disgusting service.

  • JustAnAlienOk
    RogerSmithUpInThisBitch (@JustAnAlienOk) reported

    @virginmedia Estimated fix time 13th May is ridiculous. What’s the point of spending that much money if it always stops working every month?
