  • 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

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

    @virginmedia Hi. Please read the thread. One App doesn't work properly, my TV box is generally fine. From a quick Google I can see it is a problem for other people with Virgin Media TiVo boxes too where the @All4 app doesn't load programmes. I can access the app and all the menu screens.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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!

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

    @virginmedia I've been having this issue continuously for a couple of months and they are still continuing. Yes.

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

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

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • kennythekilt kenny wilson (@kennythekilt) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Nope didn’t hear back from them I wasn’t wasting my time and your poor customer service

  • 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!!

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • kennythekilt kenny wilson (@kennythekilt) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Your staff should put the customer first pass the enquiry to another team member take break late or offer a call back

  • 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

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

  • 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.

  • alex_bann Alex Bann (@alex_bann) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia New V6 box (less than a month old) alternates between flashing red & white lights. Tried to reset using your help guide - still not working. How do I sort this out? #childreninthehouse

  • Docsworld2 Docsworld (@Docsworld2) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve done this multiple times. Always says no problem. I don’t believe this.

  • rquickenden Rob Quickenden (@rquickenden) reported

    @virginmedia Just need a retest on the system.. We have this horid splitter thing that the engineer installed last year that I have to keep powering off and on but signal for TV seems very weak

  • HaresFurGlaze BeeCherry (@HaresFurGlaze) reported

    @virginmedia We've resolved it but we're going to reconsider whether Virgin is the supplier we want to use for him as your response, for a company of your size, was poor.

  • fakirbhai_nadia Nads🦋 (@fakirbhai_nadia) reported

    @virginmedia (continued) · £25 per visit and only paid me for one on my next bill. @richardbranson you know how to count youre a billionaire surely you know how to credit a customer account accordingly to your own policy.

  • Pilpoh Phil Lewis (@Pilpoh) reported

    @virginmedia just been on the phone with your pre-installation team. After explaining that the engineers failed to turn up 17 days in a row even know we were told they would be with us each day, after 30mins on hold they hung up. Shockingly bad customer service.

  • mabanks89 Tracy Banks (@mabanks89) reported

    @virginmedia please please please fix my tv service!!!

  • julianstockton Julian Stockton (@julianstockton) reported

    @_VixxyPixie_ @virginmedia There's still problems in St Neots. We have no internet or TV. Can you advise @virginmedia ? #virginmediadown

  • fxckVARx2 🦍 (@fxckVARx2) reported

    @virginmedia your wifi is absolutely ******* terrible sometimes. Upgraded the speed of my wifi and use wifi 6 routers and your wifi just switches off randomly. I’m trying to play some Nuk3towk 24/7 and it switches off for fun. SORT IT OUT

  • Brasfort49 Julian Armstrong (@Brasfort49) reported

    @virginmedia Thank you. I am sure your colleagues will be doing just that. What long-suffering customers are left with is the feeling of a company which allows its kit to degrade to the point where it breaks down and then spends effort to repair it. Anticipation/timely replacement it ain’t
