  • iestyntdavies Iestyn T Davies (@iestyntdavies) reported from Newport, Wales

    @Spudsghost @EE The @virginmedia crapness is to do with their router I think it’s useless and can’t send the WiFi through paper thin plasterboard or handle the TV signal

  • Deannyy92 Soundwaves 🎮 (@Deannyy92) reported from Filton, England

    Swear I can’t get through an entire day of work without @virginmedia going down & having to reset my router.. thank god it’s only one month until the end of my contract.

  • niamunna1 Nige (@niamunna1) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia If I dont have a response in 48 hours to my formal complaint made a month ago, I will be cancelling my service. Ref number is COM104057176.

  • iestyntdavies Iestyn T Davies (@iestyntdavies) reported from Newport, Wales

    Can’t wait until our @virginmedia contract comes to an end the worst broadband product and with genuinely the worst customer service - avoid always

  • dlrwills Dan Williams (@dlrwills) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @virginmedia Internet is terrible lately. Good job I have mobile data otherwise I’d be living in the dark ages.

  • KitaW Kita Williams (@KitaW) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia No. And we have called so many time and reset the box. Had 3 new computers from work so the issue is you! My broadband is frankly ****!

  • willdace Will Dace (@willdace) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia after many wasted hours debating the logic of this, I am broken. Your system is as functional as an inflatable dartboard, and makes it difficult for your customer service staff. Please cancel my contract and allow me to return your gear.

  • MickDickinson BuzzedUp (@MickDickinson) reported from Bristol, England

    @JustMeBeingMe4 @virginmedia Hiya that why I left Virginmedia terrible service - I joined UW better broadband half the price. Happy to chat it through

  • LeoNak84 Leo Nakhimoff (@LeoNak84) reported from Bristol, England

    In the same month @virginmedia bill has doubled, the reliability has quartered. Internet at home is essentially useless & the WiFi router a clunky decoration! 2020, in a big city, and searching on Google is slower than an old dial-up modem. Usual awful customer service.

  • LeoNak84 Leo Nakhimoff (@LeoNak84) reported from Bristol, England

    @Seanie08 @virginmedia My speed this morning was 14mbps. Supposed to 108mbps average. They told me too many devices connected, so I turned off phone to 4g, turned off iPad and disconnect Amazon Alexa. Nothing else connected. Speed went up to 18mbps 🤣 ‘We are showing a good service!’ ByeBye.....

  • iestyntdavies Iestyn T Davies (@iestyntdavies) reported from Newport, Wales

    Good luck @virginmedia must have the worst post sales customer service in the known universe

  • DodgeyDog DodgeyDog (@DodgeyDog) reported from Clevedon, England

    @TomMockridgeVM. @Virginmedia @MoneyTelegraph. Despite trying to get information - after 24 hours, I have got nowhere trying to discover why my bill of £34 will rise to £64 next month! No extra service or work required!

  • georgetscott George Scott (@georgetscott) reported from Bristol, England

    @MrStuartForrest @virginmedia I had issues throughout yesterday but seems okay today... 😬

  • niamunna1 Nige (@niamunna1) reported from Newport, Wales

    @Nyge_79 @virginmedia Same here. Abysmal service. I'm often in a Zoom with 40 other people and I'm the only one who drops out.

  • Rita_magalhaes1 Rita Magalhaes (@Rita_magalhaes1) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia I have now attempted to contact twice about cancelling my contract, as I am moving out of my student house this month. Can I please get some aid with this, as i cannot get through to the call centre, nor find the correct email for customer services.

  • Team_Penster SamuEL Penster in the Multiverse (@Team_Penster) reported from Bristol, England

    Vm @virginmedia clearly know there are issues as its been dropping constantly since 2ish... service status "no issues"

  • DodgeyDog DodgeyDog (@DodgeyDog) reported from Clevedon, England

    @virginmedia #virginmedia #virginbroadband #stayconnected. I am still a customer at the moment - however, despite txts to a number given to me - at 9:30am - no one has got back to me! Very disappointed

  • GreggC_CC Gregg 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@GreggC_CC) reported from Newport, Wales

    @rupinjapan @virginmedia I've lost my connection tonight myself. Guessing it's a network wide issue tonight

  • gregarus Greg hook (@gregarus) reported

    @virginnomedia @virginmedia Don’t think so after the way @virgin have treated us,we are cancelling direct debit due to your poor service and you can do what you have to do to get the remaining monies for wrongly signing us up for another year (which has now turned into 18 months)

  • Matt48200234 Matt (@Matt48200234) reported

    @virginmedia So I have been calling since the beginning of march,spoken to many people gotten nowhere.I have been on your text service since 3pm still waiting and gotten nowhere.I will take this further and request my mobile back and cancel all services with you for no fee as per ofcom.

  • HokusBloke Prof.Audiobooks 💙 (@HokusBloke) reported

    Blimey, and everyone thinks Virgin Media is bad...I'd go back to them in a heartbeat over BT! Tried to book in installation for the new house...and they DON'T install on weekends (or even just Sats!) What a load of cobblers...some of us have to work weekdays!

  • sSteelZz SteelZz (@sSteelZz) reported

    @virginmedia I believe it’s a whole, acting up the entire weekend and then today. Everyone in my house and going online it’s the same for a whole lot more people with the same issue. On stream while playing constantly wifi connections and it got disconnected on the weekend. Had to stop today.

  • CiaranWest A Scribe Called C.West (@CiaranWest) reported

    Virgin Media's broadband for the last two days has been so slow I'm half expecting to hear the dial-up modem noise when I stick Netflix on.

  • virginnomedia VirginNoMedia (@virginnomedia) reported

    @jamesdoddsy @virginmedia We would love to help, but it goes completely against our customer service motto: Frustrate, Irritate & Always Late

  • personalsigh Chris in the Morning (@personalsigh) reported

    @virginmedia for the past three days I've been trying to get past your infuriating automated system to speak an actual human! We've just moved house and it has several WiFi blackspots (your app insists it doesn't) so I want to get a booster can someone please help me!!
