  • FolkardSimon Simon Folkard (@FolkardSimon) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I managed to get through on the other number as i had forgotten my old account no, the bill is paid and i now have an installation date. I appreciate your help.

  • leezaloops Leeza Morley (@leezaloops) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Absolutely disgusting service from Virgin. Rang to get refund for sky sports since lockdown and no help whatsoever. And I can’t make a complaint apparently as it will be automatically closed!!

  • philipcook1974 Philip Andrew Cook (@philipcook1974) reported from Layer-de-la-Haye, England

    @virginmedia Had enough - paying for a service - not getting what I pay for & just getting know where fast!!!!

  • philipcook1974 Philip Andrew Cook (@philipcook1974) reported from Layer-de-la-Haye, England

    @virginmedia I have had enough of your poor service 😡 talking to people who lie, can’t answer my questions so then hang up!! I have 3 mobile contacts with you my 2 daughters & my own, it’s a shocking service. All I want is the deal I signed up to 😤

  • FolkardSimon Simon Folkard (@FolkardSimon) reported from Colchester, England

    @krista_leia I don't know what to believe anymore, he told me on Sunday that Virgin Media were comping to fix it but it's now so bad i cannot even connect it. I can get wi-fi installed here just for me, but you usually need a phone line and the cost is going to be fairly high.

  • steevXIII Steve Tovey (@steevXIII) reported from Colchester, England

    Anyone else have a problem with All4 app on @virginmedia Can access the menu / home page but anytime I try to actually watch a programme I get a black screen & 4 dots endlessly blinking, as if buffering, but the show never, eeeevveerrr appears... On Googling, seems common issue?

  • ColletteLynn_ ¢σℓℓєттє ℓуηη мσσяє♥ (@ColletteLynn_) reported from Great Horkesley, England

    @Howard_Norton @Virgin I haven’t even managed to get through to @virginmedia yet despite multiple attempts and long holds to even comment on their actual customer service. The fact they are trying to charge me for something I have cancelled and haven’t used is beyond the joke already! #poorservice

  • Grovesy71 Darren Grove (@Grovesy71) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia contract changed last year, advised incorrectly by advisor, discussed with call centre & complained via your complaints procedure - no calls received to date to address from now over 1 month from complaint date #shockingservice for a loyal customer

  • FolkardSimon Simon Folkard (@FolkardSimon) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Sorry i will not be able to as it is the landlord who is the customer. Thanks though i appreciate it.

  • philipcook1974 Philip Andrew Cook (@philipcook1974) reported from Layer-de-la-Haye, England

    @virginmedia Please can you assist before I take this further @richardbranson as your customer care is certainly way off the mark. Kind regards Phil Cook

  • leezaloops Leeza Morley (@leezaloops) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia No I didn’t and I don’t remember receiving one. I have checked all my emails from you and nothing. I rang a couple of days ago to ask for a discount and was basically told to get lost. I spend £100 a month with you guys and was shocked at the service. Account name Lisa Morley.

  • lukeredpath Luke Redpath (@lukeredpath) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia @ruskin147 It’s also affecting your 4G mobile data service so every time your broadband goes down so does the 4G and we lose all of our internet access.

  • lukeredpath Luke Redpath (@lukeredpath) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia That was a wired connection. It downloaded in the end (all 92GB), I will keep a lookout for issues.

  • gunsmoke70 Richard Martin (@gunsmoke70) reported from Manningtree, England

    @7pudinis @virginmedia Was signal issue that originated from the Initial install yrs ago, bent wire in outside box, I guess over the yrs degraded till no signal, all fixed now

  • FolkardSimon Simon Folkard (@FolkardSimon) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I have something called a TP Adapter? in my room. When it is able to come through that the signal is brilliant, but for some reason it is not coming through right now.

  • lukeredpath Luke Redpath (@lukeredpath) reported from Colchester, England

    @jasonkneen @virginmedia That page never seems to work for me.

  • gunsmoke70 Richard Martin (@gunsmoke70) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia what’s the issue with the service in colchester CO2 area

  • philipcook1974 Philip Andrew Cook (@philipcook1974) reported from Layer-de-la-Haye, England

    @virginmedia The worst bit you get one letter on 6th Nov saying your case is being investigated & apologising for taking 8 weeks to sort, two days later the case is closed as I didn’t reply to a letter 4 weeks earlier I never received!!!!

  • starbuck2003 Julian Joyce (@starbuck2003) reported from Elmstead Market, England

    @virginmedia Hi i moved house on the 13th Dec and i contacted virginmedia that i would like to close my account. I have yet to have a final bill from yourselves and i had to cancel the direct debit as this would have gone out tomorrow for the full amount!

  • RUSSELL91779006 RUSSELL WALKER (@RUSSELL91779006) reported from Colchester, England

    @IpMcdonald Snap...the same for me, but with virgin media. Absolutely abysmal service.

    @LooseWheelNut @virginmedia They no help issues in the area for weeks also I didnt know my account as not had any statements so wouldnt tell me much just terrible alot have moved to bt and sky locally

  • carliej63398204 carlie james (@carliej63398204) reported

    @Ryan_V2C @virginmedia I’m so annoyed! I’m in the chat literally on day 15 of this version of the issue, yesterday they refused to log a complaint then ignored me so I got put in a queue again today. Had to log it online 🙈 Twitter was a last resort. Effecting my work majorly!

  • LooseWheelNut OneJob (@LooseWheelNut) reported

    @philtrucker1510 @virginmedia I only went with them because BT couldn’t keep my supply when I moved house. The hub from BT is 👍🏼 well worth the little extra pm for the service.

  • Allumajo G.M. (@Allumajo) reported

    @virginmedia No no estimated tome listen to your own message! I called 150 and message says if it’s about the intermittent problem we apologise we are working on it?? It’s been 9 months according to London/Earlsfield SW17 FB group! Outrageous!

  • harry_duncan neil harrison (@harry_duncan) reported

    @virginmedia can you help with checking my phoneline. Been in call q for 60mins thus far

  • carliej63398204 carlie james (@carliej63398204) reported

    @virginmedia filed my 3rd complaint yesterday. Maybe il actually get a resolution if not il have to speak to offcom! Awful service day 30since I reported issue! Constantly waiting days for contact.

  • SamueleDiNicola Samuele Di Nicola (@SamueleDiNicola) reported

    @virginmedia I don't want to make a complaint, I want you to do your job and answer in less than 6 hours. Is it too much? Hire more people? Waiting 5 hours is absurd.

  • mandukes Mandy forrest (@mandukes) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia WiFi keeps dropping out every min or so. Doing my head in. Is there a issue in Eh12 8ah. Please sort it out thanks

  • haqxx HAQ (@haqxx) reported

    @virginmedia worst comapny6ever no help

  • goonerlgh Lawrence Hooker (@goonerlgh) reported

    @virginmedia When are you gonna replace the terrible Superhub 3? Surely one of the worst pieces of home IT ever made? As reliable as a homemade paper-mache parachute. Continuously drops WiFi connections. Has to be reset at least every other day. Shockingly bad kit.
