Sophie Giltinan (@sophiegiltinan) reported from Avonmouth, England
Well my internet went down in the middle of my online exam (which I was doing terribly at anyway), managed to finish but it was utter shit. Ironically this is not the first time I have been shafted by @virginmedia and probably wont be the last.

Ben Geracitano (@CoachGeracitano) reported from Kingswood, England
@virginmedia I have spoken with your team again who say an engineer will be in contact within the next 2-3 days. So there is a fault. And since the call I have now got limited internet... so please do not lie. Instead be honest to a customer of of 10years.

@Ciaransworld @Roaster323 @virginmedia Yep that’s what I’ve got in the office as I’ve got a separate WiFi network in here set-up. It’s not the WiFi strength more the lack of phone signal I get in here!
-
Niall (@tuwituwo) reported from Bristol, England
@virginmedia please help! I’ve been trying all afternoon to resolve an issue with my new order. The online chat goes through to departments with no one in. On the phone call the person hung up on me when I asked for more help. Now on hold again for 50 min

Jon Taylor (@jon_p_taylor) reported from Bathford, England
@virginmedia is the gift that keeps on giving. What does this even mean: “We know of an issue....we are not able to produce the right set of outages. The outages produces below may or may not affect you.” #priceless

Sarah (@sarahcliftonsc) reported from Kingswood, England
@virginmedia Thanks for nothing!! There isn't anything on sky sports so I rang up to remove it and they can't as the price goes up. What a load of shite!!!!!! And cheers for never replying to my tweets

Ayrtek Cricket (@AyrtekCricket) reported from Bristol, England
@Roaster323 @virginmedia FaceTime and WhatsApp are over 4G or WiFi anyway. This is for normal calls/texts when you don’t have any signal. I built my office with insulated floors/roof/walls which means it’s terrible for signal due to foil used on the insulation so at least this will resolve that issue
-
Amy (@Yippers) reported from Bristol, England
@virginmedia I have done all of the above. Issue here is that this it is affecting other VM customers as well, all of us are using your WiFi! Please check your community forum and you will see there are a lot of posts about the same issue. Resolve this ASAP or consider reimbursement.
-
Louise Ripley (@LouRipley) reported from Kingswood, England
@virginmedia 🤣 if only this could be believed. Service is no different than any prior month - stop using the current situation to excuse Virgin’s continuous shortcomings it assumes customers are somewhat mentally incapacitated
-
Daniel Fry (@DanielFry23) reported from Filton, England
@georgiebingham It’s not just Sky, @virginmedia has had a stinker for weeks in Bradley Stoke, Bristol. It’s the worst I’ve seen it since I had it a few years ago, 100mbs should be the speed, yet the signal is in and out for weeks! But I’ve seen it’s not just me it’s the rest of the UK too
-
Amy (@Yippers) reported from Bristol, England
I’ve been on your community page and seen a lot of VM customers have also posted the same issue with no resolution or response from @virginmedia! You need to sort this out - using mobile data instead of WiFi is not what I signed up for.
-
Paul Burdon (@burdmiester) reported from Kingswood, England
@virginmedia Have real issues with installing and configuring my new WiFi and TV box. Hub continues to flash green and has been for 5 hours, as such can’t proceed to the next stage. Call help desks waited 90 minutes #helpme

Alison Newnham (@Allypally52) reported from Bristol, England
@virginmedia suddenly unable to log into virgin on phone, my Mac, husband’s PC so unable to access emails. Won’t recognise password, security question etc or allow me to change. Please help!
-
Amy (@Yippers) reported from Bristol, England
@virginmedia Yes it’s still happening this morning. It’s a permanent issue whenever I go on Instagram. A lot of users have brought up this issue already on the internet, but I can’t find the solution. I can’t continue to switch over to my mobile data just to browse that app!
-
Daniel Fry (@DanielFry23) reported from Filton, England
@virginmedia your device in the BS32 are of bristol is beyond a joke! You expect us to pay money for a service that dial is faster all those years ago! Sort it out!

@notsolittlezee @virginmedia They never respond.. They are exhausting. Me and them are in a toxic relationship I swear. Hard to walk away and yet I keep being abused.

Dave Brain 🧠 (@Ornsack) reported from Bristol, England
I can deal with Virgin Media being down but it appears O2 is down too so I can’t save the day by flicking to 4G. Having to resort to watching NORMAL TELEVISION like the old days.

Luke Davies (@LukeDav64411232) reported
@virginmedia Your customer service team were not helpful, and in the end, the line just went dead. The only thing I wanted to #stayconnected was the phone line and that apparently was not possible. I will cancel my DD now as I am out of contract.
-
Lisa Price ⚽️🏌🏼♀️🧘🏼♀️❤️ (@lisaawright21) reported
@virginmedia I have been trying to contact you to cancel my internet contract. Each time I call 0345 4541111 there is just a recorded message saying the lines are too busy and to call back. Our internet speed has been appalling for the past month and I wish to cancel..
-
Martyn Redman (@ReddersM) reported
@virginmedia - Appalling Cust Service, First person fields the call, second person, tells me out of stock wifi boosters! Call back in Feb! Ask for the discount I have been offered! Start verifying proc again and does not match. Cannot talk to me! #April, #leaving, #noboosters
-
Kitster (@kitty_chan8) reported
@virginmedia I called 3 times with 30-40mins wait times, to try and cancel my bb. I got through to the call handler, then he transferred me to the end of contracts department but the call dropped. This is ridiculous!!!
-
Martin Avery (@martin_avery) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England
@virginmedia are you having problems with your broadband connections in the NE15 area ?, it’s been rubbish over the last few days
-
ulrike parratt (@UParratt) reported
@virginmedia I've just been on the phone for 2 hours trying to cancel my contract only to be told by the second person I've spoke to that I didn't give the correct password. No option to cancel contract on line. Absolutely shocking customer service.
-
Danny Collins (@Danny_Boy200) reported
@Virgin @virginmedia I need to cancel my account die to moving house but been sitting on hold for what feels like a lifetime! Can I just email you?! You make it so difficult.
-
Naomi Lee (@NaomiLe57011799) reported
@virginmedia I gave notice in writing via your messaging service on the 25th. But I will send the letter as well and I trust my notice period will be backdated to the 25th?
-
Sean bucky (@tranmere1234) reported
@virginmedia Utter waste of time, you must not read the thousands of complaints about this app, the bottom line is my son is two floors up from the rooter and the WiFi speed is awful, what we need is a reduction in our package price or assistance devices
-
Deirdre O'Kelly 🕷🎵🇪🇺🇬🇧🇮🇪#FBPE (@deeokelly1) reported
@SarahLudford @virginmedia We had to switch to BT because it was impossible to get Virgin to help. Weeks of frustration. Absolutely the worst customer service I've ever experienced
