-
Paul Mackenzie Ross (@pmross) reported from Farnborough, England
@virginmedia Thanks. Engineer showed up, plugged in a new Hub 3, “fixed” my BB & WiFi and, 3 hours later, it’s still not working. Can I 1) file a complaint and 2) get a guarantee that this will be fixed for once and for all.
-
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
-
Paul Mackenzie Ross (@pmross) reported from Farnborough, England
‘ere, @VirginMedia, it’s been a full month now of totally unreliable service at my house; 5 engineers later, with the last call to 0345 454 111 on Friday saying you KNOW there’s a problem and it WILL be fixed in 24 hours. I called bullshit. I was right. Sort this out!!!
-
Daniel Sherlock (@mcsherlocks) reported from Wokingham, England
@virginmedia Internet down at the moment in Woking also yesterday. Checked with my neighbours also down so is system wide
-
Katie Girdler (@KGirdler) reported from Guildford, England
@virginmedia brand new customer coming from sky (after bad service) and received awful customer service from you! I certainly will not be recommending virgin media.
-
Paul Mackenzie Ross (@pmross) reported from Farnborough, England
@virginmedia Thanks. Done that. Multiple times. And over the last 6 months. And when I was an ntl: customer. And CableTel before that. 27 years of 56k > 350Mb and now it’s totally doing my head in. Unable to work from home properly. Boss won’t be happy!
-
GoldyMcGoldface (@Goldy73) reported from Farnborough, England
@virginmedia The fact you have even done it without telling anyone is a shocking customer service move,especially in this day and age where a lot of people are working from home. Absolutely disgusting service I don't care how long it will take, I need to know of you plan to take it down so
-
Tom (@Tom38971529) reported from Wokingham, England
@virginmedia Well I would speak to a member of the team but always get the call cut short and I ask for a call back if the line goes dead. Twice yesterday ot happend Nd never got a phone call back
-
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
-
derrick mulvana (@nenevall) reported from Reading, England
@virginmedia @OfficialRandL reading festival, the virgin media mobile network is on its knees with no internet connection across most of the site.. sort it out.
-
Paul Mackenzie Ross (@pmross) reported from Farnborough, England
@virginmedia Yep. Wired isn’t working either. I have no broadband, no WiFi, no service. Been like this since Saturday and intermittent since Jan/Feb.

Haider Al-Rekabi 🏴☠️ (@HaiderAlRekabi) reported from Reading, England
@virginmedia There is no problem in my area. My problem is specific to my account.
-
Paul Mackenzie Ross (@pmross) reported from Farnborough, England
Dear @VirginMedia, after 3x visits from technicians over 6 months (one of whom LIED about fixing bb/WiFi) I’m now back to no service (48 hours). Yes, tried rebooting, off/on etc, status says everything OK, Called yesterday and there IS an issue. When are you going to fix it?
-
stevemason (@EssarrMason) reported from Aldershot, England
@virginmedia Inadequate reply, to my mind, you contracted to supply a service, you cannot deliver that service, uou terminated the contract....perhaps YOU shoukd pay the cancellation fee!
-
Paul Mackenzie Ross (@pmross) reported from Farnborough, England
@Firesnapper999 @virginmedia It’s really frustrating; the third technician was brilliant, replaced everything almost like a new install and it worked great for just over a week. Now the status site says everything is good whilst a call to support says it isn’t. #Grrr
-
Deborah Jessup (@Debbiejojessup) reported from Woodley, England
Trying to cancel our Virgin Broadband what a nightmare. On hold for 90 mins still no one answers from the cancellation department. #virginmedia @virginmedia
-
_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.
-
Katie Girdler (@KGirdler) reported from Guildford, England
@virginmedia What a surprise still no call from you that I was promised! I can't believe this is how you treat new customers!
-
Khurram Qayam (@kqbrain) reported from Reading, England
We have issue with #HGVdrivers but why @virginmedia broadband had issues for the last few days in RG6 area. Pretty bad service. @Ofcom
-
_jarl_ostensen (@psjarlo) reported from Guildford, England
Since so many of us are working from home it would be nice if network maintenance could be done over night, to minimise disruption...@virginmedia

DanRichGames #ex-forces (@DRichgames) reported
@virginmedia I was told I had to take it to a vigin store by the woman on the phone, she was all nice until they wouldn't price match and then it was rude. My closest virgin store is 48 min drive on a good day, in Birmingham.... told me they wanted my router back before my contract ended...
-
Anand Bhatt (@Bhattatweet) reported
@virginmedia I can't access my online login. I was asked for my Mother's Maiden name - that was 'wrong' - then it asked me my account number, area reference, bill date and amount that was also 'wrong' - I can't seem to reset the password.
-
Simon (@71simon) reported
@virginmedia Yes. No issues. It looks like the issue is with my WiFi again.
-
Obey Justified (@ObeyJustified) reported
@capra_genus @virginmedia I'm not bothering with an engineer mate I'm just gonna cancel they are too unreliable
-
Hasan Sweid (@hasan_sweid) reported
@virginmedia i just checked the link now and it says there are no issues. Internet keeps coming and going though. it can go up to 100mbps but then sometimes drops to 1.
-
Christopher Bristow 🏴 🐉 (@1CJBristow) reported
@virginmedia Funny how your diagnostic tool now says there are no issues when there still are! "@Virgin @virginmedia, making it up as we go along, high prices for low service". What a terribly poor company you are.
-
Kirsty Baxter (@Kaybeexx) reported
@virginmedia I want to be able to speak to someone who can help going backwards and forwards here isn’t helping if I can’t speak to a manager by 12 I will be making a formal complaint. I am a nurse who does emergency on calls which are time critical - I have to have a phone line
-
Babbles (@babbles70) reported
@virginmedia I want to cancel my service due to the price rise
-
Eyes Right 👉 🇬🇧 🇮🇱 🇺🇸 (@EyesRight6) reported
@virginmedia So far so good this morning. Suffered major packet loss for the past couple of days and you're online checker said my connection "had issues" - what are the opening hours for your Technical Support phone-lines?
-
Simon (@71simon) reported
@virginmedia Poor. I’m using my iPhone and when I try to load a webpage or open a tweet thread, not much happens until I turn the phone’s WiFi off. As soon as 4G takes over, bang - it loads instantly.
