  • brizzleboy pete jones (@brizzleboy) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Tried using that contact forms again, still nothing helps, I'll just hang on line for another hour 🤬🤬

  • CraigAllan5 Craig Allan (@CraigAllan5) reported from Clevedon, England

    @virginmedia shocking service so far. Ordered our broadband a month in advance of our house move as is essential because we’re both working from home. Been in a week and had delivery of my hub but still not able to connect. Advice is always just to wait and it will come online.

  • stace_the_face stace_the_face 💙💙💙🎓🎓🎓 (@stace_the_face) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia saga continues- so their call handler didn’t call me back and now someone’s told me they cancelled my compensation cheque because my account is closed. My account was closed because you couldn’t provide a simple service for 4.5 months and damaged my property.

  • VickyLorych VickyL (@VickyLorych) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia so disappointed 😞 I was quoted £70 pm all in today now my bill has arrived and it’s £100 and next month you wanted to charge me £277 😳 now sat waiting to cancel the services ! 😡

  • AdamLee2011 Adam Lee (@AdamLee2011) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia had new hub 4 modem arrive yesterday, set up and worked fine for about 12 hours now it doesn’t even have power. Did not even last a full day. Load of **** it is #virginmedia #broadband #wifi

  • TruVetCommando TruVetCommando (@TruVetCommando) reported from Avonmouth, England

    @Ofcom hi there @virginmedia are charging me for fibre350 and im getting 30 at the best there customer service will not even send out a engineer to look. This has been going on for months. I have just spent over 2 hours on the phone again to them all they said is complain to you.

  • daintree75 leighton daintree (@daintree75) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia I have had to email your DPO department again today for an update as it will be 3 weeks tomorrow since last reply. This has been rumbling on for a month. Your customer service is shocking. Who do I need to complain to? @Offcom?

  • adamnieman Adam Nieman 💙 (@adamnieman) reported from Bristol, England

    @jonWturney @virginmedia If only they DID invest in their network. They bought Telewest in a fire-sale many years ago and have spent barely a penny on it. My guess is that they are able to ‘upgrade’ your speed because all of your neighbours have switched to BT, who actually have invested.

  • lou_dare Louise Dare (@lou_dare) reported from Ringland, Wales

    @virginmedia do you have any connection issues in the Np19 area please. Can’t connect television to internet ? Thanks

  • berryleigh Berry (@berryleigh) reported from Beechwood, Wales

    @virginmedia I made a complaint January 12th. I phoned on 15th to chase it. I was told you would be in touch and you haven’t been. Your T’s and C’s say 28 days. We are now on day 38! You responded quickly to @SophieEB how come you can show everyone the same respect! Your rubbish!

  • jonki1980 Jon K (@jonki1980) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Broadband is down in Bristol BS16. Stopped about 30 minutes - tried rebooting twice on and off included are you aware of any issues? Service Status says no issues - no message on calling 150 #virginmediadown

  • leedumble Lee (@leedumble) reported from Avonmouth, England

    @virginmedia Reliable joke still not working properly and a engineer book for today and guess what he did not turn up don’t worry on half a day wages wasted took time off unpaid joke 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

  • courttttxxo Court✨ (@courttttxxo) reported from Avonmouth, England

    Honestly @virginmedia has to be the biggest load of **** ever. We never have WiFi, even the TV that’s hooked up to the Ethernet cable isn’t working. At least once a day the WiFi drops. We live in Bristol, not the ******* outback

  • TruVetCommando TruVetCommando (@TruVetCommando) reported from Avonmouth, England

    @virginmedia Well just spent over 2 hours talking to your customer services team to be told 30mbps is acceptable for fibre350 what happened to money back if min 180mbps not reached

  • fifiifif Fi Willi (@fifiifif) reported from Bristol, England

    AGH! 40 mins waiting on the phone to find out that @virginmedia will not help you understand why the internet service is slow unless you have an Ethernet plugged in... WHO CONNECTS BY WIRE TO THE INTERNET IN THE AGE OF TABLETS AND SMARTPHONE?! Ugh! 😡 #penalised

  • daintree75 leighton daintree (@daintree75) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Hi No absolutely nothing. Its so poor and terrible customer service. I am so unhappy with you. The funny thing is that @virginmedia rang me yesterday to see if you could win my business back from @SkyUK if I have a problem they sort it may take a call or 2 but its dealt with.

  • misseschampers Lucy Champion (@misseschampers) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia hi, is there a customer service email for billing queries instead of phone/message? Thank you :)

  • edwinokli Edwin Walker (@edwinokli) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia I have an issue with Bluetooth headphones interfering with WiFi signal. Two pairs of headphones, same result. Is there anything I can do to the router to stop this from happening? It's better when I switch off the 2.4GHz band.

  • chloehester Chloe (@chloehester) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia my partner has had no reception on his mobile for at least 24 hours now, we've tried resetting the phone etc and nothing is working. Is there an issue on the network?

  • MartinRose2 Martin Rose (@MartinRose2) reported from Bristol, England

    @mouthwaite @virginmedia All of the wi-fi providers are rubbish. I am with BT and had to make several complaints about poor signal. You would be better off with a pay as you go dongle to be perfectly honest.

  • PhillThornhill Phill Thornhill (@PhillThornhill) reported

    @virginmedia Seeing as you caused the problem and you are now the same company I would expect you to do something to resolve it. Your customer support line has been very little help.

  • JamshadNaeem jamshad naeem (@JamshadNaeem) reported

    @virginmedia New dates will not help as external works need to be completed. Also the delay credits are no good to me. I will be looking to make a claim for loss of earnings as I work from home

  • ashforduk Ashley Ford (@ashforduk) reported

    @virginmedia please can you tell me why I have not received a call from a manager as every time I call up they say obe will call me. Also would like someone to confirm that I actually have a open complaint I do have the number.

  • NickHancox_ Nick Hancox (@NickHancox_) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, as per the other day, the service has left much to be desired. Told hub would be delivered today, as we needed it urgently. Have heard nothing all day, nothing from the delivery partner. Have waited in all day for the delivery. Absolutely shocking service.

  • bowzbass Bowzer Massive Wagons (@bowzbass) reported

    @virginmedia I've spoken to 3 different people just today. On the phone for at least an hour each time. This isn't counting the numerous times before today trying to find out what the issue was. The "construction" is apparently a collapsed drain between us and the box.

  • SChuzzlewhit Spencer Chuzzlewhit (@SChuzzlewhit) reported

    @virginmedia I signed up for the ultimate oopmh package which includes Netflix. How do I access Netflix. My original ‘Welcome Email’ said I would get instructions emailed to me. It’s now been 23 days and I’ve called your useless customer service number over 40 times !!!!

  • bowzbass Bowzer Massive Wagons (@bowzbass) reported

    @virginmedia The problem is that our scheduled installs were always cancelled last minute. Losing money not being in work or wasting holidays. Being unable to work from home. The call back is scheduled for today. No specific time. I'm guessing up until 8pm

  • Alexjsherman Alex Sherman (@Alexjsherman) reported

    @virginmedia Did you read anything in that tweet... They know there's an issue but have done sod all about it for 3 months...This is getting beyond a joke now literally worked perfectly with sky 🤷🏻 maybe was worth the extra money after all.

  • LukePilcher3 Luke Pilcher (@LukePilcher3) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, I would but your website seems to be down....

  • JamesRob90 James Robertson (@JamesRob90) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah I have called you 18 times in three months and had zero help. Had no calls back from any management, a disgrace of a company. Message me and il give you my number to phone. Il be cancelling all direct debit there’s no way am paying three times my contract agreement
