  • LeylandDavid David Gardner (@LeylandDavid) reported from Leyland, England

    @virginmedia Reported the problem yesterday after your response. Should have been fixed by 10am today apparently, but still nothing.

  • gilliblogs Gill Lysons (@gilliblogs) reported from Newton-le-Willows, England

    @yicker @virginmedia Had the same thing when my Gran was poorly, trying to explain to HMRC why they couldn’t visit her for an assessment - eventually I had to say “look, she’s dying” Bloody awful . Hope you’re ok xxx

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

    @virginmedia please provide a direct contact for complaints. Sick of the poor service and mistakes that I have had every month since joining you

  • RayWaring Ray Waring (@RayWaring) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia It’s ok I’ve managed to get around my dad’s security question - it was an issue with the lower / upper case. I’ve updated his password and his email is now receiving emails on his phone and iPad - I think we’re ok. Frustrating that the live chat sent him around in circles

  • LeylandDavid David Gardner (@LeylandDavid) reported from Leyland, England

    @virginmedia How many more times, the landline is NOT working (no dial tone).

  • RayWaring Ray Waring (@RayWaring) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia No nothing - no reference number. The inconsistency of service between live chat, phone and Twitter is mad. It doesn’t feel like you’re speaking to the same company

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

    @virginmedia please can I have a direct contact for complaints. I don’t want a generic email, I want someone higher to sort out the same issue I am having every month 😤😡🤬

  • RayWaring Ray Waring (@RayWaring) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Also I’ve just tried and it won’t accept the answers to the security questions - which are both ok. Can someone contact me to help me out please?

  • KStaff1878 KStaff (@KStaff1878) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Broadband and phone lines down in the L4 area yet again!!! I wish to cancel my contract early as you are failing to keep to your side of the agreement and provide a reliable service!!!! Piss poor

  • LeylandDavid David Gardner (@LeylandDavid) reported from Leyland, England

    @virginmedia My landline phone has been down all afternoon in PR25 1UJ. Have any others complained about this issue, and if you're aware of the issue, do you have an estimated time for repair. Thanks in advance.

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

    @JolyonMaugham @virginmedia @SP_EnergyPeople ongoing complaint since March. They are actually extorting me.

  • LeylandDavid David Gardner (@LeylandDavid) reported from Leyland, England

    @virginmedia No updated fix time, as it shows all services as green, and can't detect a problem. It asks us to phone you on 151 to do a little more "digging", but the phone line is DOWN. Oh, and the chatbot doesn't deal with landline issues apparently. Now what???

  • RayWaring Ray Waring (@RayWaring) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia This takes me through to a help and support page - what do I do next?

  • Andy_Dunbar Andy Dunbar (@Andy_Dunbar) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Is that minimum 12 months subscription or can I cancel at anytime?

  • mrmrjarrold Matthew Jarrold (@mrmrjarrold) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia The main thing here is that not one person who I have come into contact with in your organisation wants to take ownership of the problem and try and resolve it which is the essence of customer service. It’s a massive fail.

  • Joanneincrosby Joanne Johnson (@Joanneincrosby) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia tried to contact Virgin media for days! We had no internet for last Saturday, Sunday , Tuesday in the area . You call and it will not let you contact to anyone as it’s a complex problem in the area. Anyone know a better provider I’ve totally had enough.

  • KStaff1878 KStaff (@KStaff1878) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Broadband down completely. Need to work from home, what's going on.

  • Kiefer1667 Marc Lancaster (@Kiefer1667) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia how can we find out when you are transferring our mobile numbers to the vodafone network instead of ee?

  • RayWaring Ray Waring (@RayWaring) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia my dad’s email address has been hacked. VM says he has to re register his email address. He’s spent nearly 3hrs on live chat today trying to fix it. He’s 86 and relies upon his email to order from home. Can you please explain to me the process to correct this issue?

  • MattyHankinson Matt Hankinson (@MattyHankinson) reported from St Helens, England

    @cathd100 @virginmedia I’m having the same issue! Annoying!!!!!

  • TotallyMUFC 🔰 Totally Man Utd™ 🔰 (@TotallyMUFC) reported

  • kerrymoyles Kerry Moyles (@kerrymoyles) reported

    @virginmedia Diagnostic now says ‘intermittent issue in the area’ but then unhelpfully tells me to check back in 24 hours. It’s been off/on for past three days, can we get some help please? (2/2)

  • jackyaz Jack (@jackyaz) reported

    @youfibre 2/ Support is now closed and I have no Youfibre connection. I'm glad I haven't cancelled my @virginmedia subscription yet, but I may be cancelling my @youfibre subscription!
