  • TazAliPreston Taz Ali (@TazAliPreston) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia can someone please message me. I have been struggling to get hold of someone to resolve a home telephone number. I have been promised call backs to resolve this long overdue complaint. But still waiting to speak to someone! #CustomerExperience

  • lamsom Dave Gracey (@lamsom) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia There’s absolutely nothing wrong with the phone, I can travel to different areas and get 4 bars on my phone and it works no problem, the problem is in the area I live.The reception always used to be fine but for quite some time now it’s been awful, I currently have one bar.

  • SharonLLeonard Sharon Leonard (@SharonLLeonard) reported from Bryn, England

    @virginmedia Can they help do you think?

  • SharonLLeonard Sharon Leonard (@SharonLLeonard) reported from Bryn, England

    @virginmedia Would love it if they could come out and fix it, last visit did the best he could but I wonder do BT have better equipment?

  • TazAliPreston Taz Ali (@TazAliPreston) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia can someone please message me. I have been struggling to get hold of someone to **** and resolve a home telephone. I have been promised call backs to resolve this long overdue complaint. But still wait to speak to someone!

  • porlmurf Murph (@porlmurf) reported from Tyldesley, England

    @big_kev_83 @virginmedia @MENnewsdesk Yeah, bonus points if they point at whatever the problem is (pothole, loose paving etc)

  • SharonLLeonard Sharon Leonard (@SharonLLeonard) reported from Bryn, England

    @virginmedia I don’t want DIY I want the service I pay for in my 3 bed house!

  • Elle83 Michelle E (@Elle83) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @virginmedia why does my super hub 3 keep resetting my WiFi password. I’m having to change it through settings every other day because it keeps defaulting back to the security key, this is causing major issues

  • SammyKnowlesX SJK (@SammyKnowlesX) reported from Banks, England

    @virginmedia can someone explain that why after several issues I’ve had with you, that you think it’s ok, to hike up the bill £20 a month on a fixed fee contract?! #disgusting #poorservice #donotrecommend

  • StephenMonk1970 The Monk (@StephenMonk1970) reported from Preston, England

    Virgin Mobile. Utterly useless. All I want is to send a text and call people. My bill isn't due until 8th May. There is no online help. Really cheesed off. #virginmobile #virginmedia #virginbilling

  • StephenMonk1970 The Monk (@StephenMonk1970) reported from Preston, England

    Help @virginmedia. Once again I'm left unable to ring my doctors because you attempted the direct debit early and it failed. My Oomph sim will now not work until I make a payment. Please that's all I want to do. Do I need to go to Ofcom or the Ombudsman. This seriously effects me

  • ShimmiArt ✨Shimmi✨ Comms open! (@ShimmiArt) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia internet yesterday went from 12mbs (11am) to 30mbs (3pm). Today it’s 3mbs. How is this acceptable? No reported issues but our internet goes up and down constantly, sometimes goes off altogether

  • lamsom Dave Gracey (@lamsom) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia Your mobile network is crap & your customer service is just as bad.

  • ThePhilAtkinson Phil (@ThePhilAtkinson) reported from Liverpool, England

    Virgin Media is ******* awful. Anyone know of another Internet provider that isn't complete dogshit?

  • BenjiMaccers Benji McLoughlin (@BenjiMaccers) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia Your online checker tells me my line is fine. It’s not. There was an outage yesterday, it came back on and now it’s off again. I’ve restarted the hub multiple times.

  • DannyWyattXXX Danny Wyatt | OnlyFans 25% off (@DannyWyattXXX) reported from St Helens, England

    Anybody else having Virgin media problems? #virginmediadown

  • charl_middo Charlotte Louise Middleton (@charl_middo) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia what is the problem with the broadband in the L9 area?! It’s been dodgy for weeks now and my husband now has to use his phone as a hotspot to be able to actually work from home because the broadband is so shocking!

  • GailCharnock Gail Charnock (@GailCharnock) reported from Shevington, England

    @virginmedia You are aware of the problem, told us it's a fault and it's being fixed by 12th April, it wasn't, we rang, you gave us reassurance it will be fixed by the 22nd, it hasn't, we rang got passed around a lot! Now you say it will be fixed 29th. Hands up if you would put up with this?

  • Kayls3457 Kayleigh Speakman (@Kayls3457) reported from Abram, England

    @virginmedia Yet another WiFi and TV outage. Hence another...

  • GaryBeggs_8 Gary Beggs (@GaryBeggs_8) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia can’t get through on the phone, so you launch an app to manage your own account, then when you try and make changes it sends you to a chat option which also you can’t get through on. Your service is an absolute joke !

  • ColBell8 Colin Bell (@ColBell8) reported

    @virginmedia I finally got through to someone. They said you haven’t got any pods and haven’t for months. They actually suggested I go and buy a third party WiFi booster to fix your service!! Incredible.

  • StephenMonk1970 The Monk (@StephenMonk1970) reported from Preston, England

    Help @virginmedia. Once again I'm left unable to ring my doctors because you attempted the direct debit early and it failed. My Oomph sim will now not work until I make a payment. Please that's all I want to do. Do I need to go to Ofcom or the Ombudsman. This seriously effects me

  • seand_f Sean Fitzsimons (@seand_f) reported

    @virginmedia How often does it take 4 different engineers to try and fix a problem with your broadband? Please can you link me to a contact to claim for the past 2 weeks of broken broadband that I’ve been paying for and to cancel the contract if this isn’t fixed after the next appointment

  • aranjspivey Aran Spivey (@aranjspivey) reported

    @virginmedia had intermittent internet in N6 for the past couple of weeks, status page says there an issue but have had no update? Can you advise if this is being looked at? WFH proving a challenge... thank you!

  • Simon_Monty Simon Montgomery (@Simon_Monty) reported

    @virginmedia I can’t even check anything on the virgin media connect app as the app “does not support my hub” - hub 4.

  • Sofa_15_4_14 Soph💎 (@Sofa_15_4_14) reported

    @virginmedia But what difference will this make if we just keep getting directed back to the same issue of reset the box which we do everyday twice a day, whether it’s a phone call or a forum question you guys just have shocking internet service and tbh it’s needs fixing

  • kittyjizz76 Louise Todd (@kittyjizz76) reported

    @virginmedia realistically, how easy is it going to be to move equipment to a new property? And what unbelievable cost as well? Because trying to talk to someone half decent on the phone is bad enough

  • marksuttonbike marksuttonbike (@marksuttonbike) reported

    @virginmedia As predicted new hub has done absolutely nothing and so you have wasted my time again. 55kbps this morning. Send an engineer out and fix the problem! Please also have one of your people call me. I haven't the time to waste chasing you for the fourth time.

  • luketuffs Luke Tuffs (@luketuffs) reported

    @virginmedia @EmmaBabeyy93 I have same issue now, tried resetting 5 times still not working...

  • ClaraGomer Claire Gomersall (@ClaraGomer) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia A fault, however, the router was “updated”.... Worked okay for a couple of weeks, then went back to being out of sync / tinny sound I thought it may have been down to my Gramps TV - but I bought a new TV and used the FireStick on there - but still issues!!
