-
BeanBolt (@BeanBolt) reported from Southport, EnglandTenth issue in FOUR months now with @virginmedia. They've seemed to have stopped replying to my direct messages now. @WeAreOpenreach @bt_uk how long until you're newly installed lines in my area are activated and ready?
-
BeanBolt (@BeanBolt) reported from Southport, England@virginmedia It says no issue in the area, then when I click "still having issues" the local scan shows intermittent outages in the area, been like this for 24hrs+
-
Richard Foster (@fos100) reported from New Longton, EnglandSince I moved, the @virginmedia connection has been terrible. I’ve had an engineer out, had a booster put on, been told on numerous occasions to reboot the hub. This shouldn’t be needed. Their website is horrendous to use and largely involves linking to help guides 1/?
-
🥔 A bean has no name 🥔 (@ylilxanoi) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia my interest been down for a whole week. Call centre staff don't know what to say. An engineer has been on site every single day apparently. Can someone fix my internet. I pay £52 a month this is beyond a joke. I've used all my 4g& bought a ****** dongle just to WFH
-
Wightpie (@wightpie) reported from Blackburn, England@virginmedia So why then a) does it specify postal and b) not provide a field for mobile number. At best it’s misleading and at worst incompetent

Very poor. 3 days trying, being on hold, being assured return calls, moving home team have to speak to Netflix team (don't even have it), then being told it's cancelled and being give packaging instructions. Ridiculous, wanted to stay with you.

-
Anthony Murphy (@anthony_murphy1) reported from Bolton, England@virginmedia is there a way for me to find out if my phone number has been leaked or involved in any form of data breach as I've been getting daily phone calls from people pretending to be you? Never anyone else so just intrigued.
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia Yes, this has been going on now for months. Was just on to your team to cancel, they hung up on me. I’ve never known a more woeful service. They are quick enough to take payment every month for a service I’m not getting.
-
Lindz Devine (@LindzDDub) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia I also play Destiny 2. I thought it may have been their servers but my boyfriend doesn't have the issue.

-
kevin.james (@pillbo01) reported from Bolton, EnglandI have virgin media but they don’t have a Customer service that you can speak to. Or email I’ve had a problem for over a month since an engineer messed about in the box in the street. Picture on tv keeps pixilated.
-
Adam (@agarnett) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia Is there any way to tell if there are signal issues in your area? This says i should get 4g indoors and outdoors, i dont though i can barely access mobile internet from my house. Last 3 months have been awful
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia can someone help me please? I’m about to lose my ****. Never ever known anything like this company. Now telling me lies on WhatsApp. Saying i logged an issue weeks after engineers had already been out to find the fault. Refusing compensation after 4 mths no service.

entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported@karenwi17092279 Sorry to hear that, not good 😔 Yes, we rely on these things more than we realise... I had forgotten the printer, the TV box, my Spotify, heating controller, etc. all use the WiFi and workarounds for all of them need to be fashioned or just abandoned until @virginmedia fix it
-
Graham Booth (@laserblue) reported@virginmedia Hi, it seems my set top box is on the blink and my chances of watching my beloved Man City maybe at risk. I could switch to Nowtv, but that will cost me £15 for a 24hr pass. I've used the tips as featured in the trouble shooting guide. No luck. Can you help? Thanks
-
John James (@_kimosabe_) reported@virginmedia absolutely disgusting Customer Service I’ve been told for 3weeks HBO max is free with TNTspots only to just been told it’s not now unbelievable service I have it in writing and verbally been told it’s free
-
Turkish 🇹🇷 🏴 (@Turkish_hackney) reported@virginmedia spoke to your customer service not long ago and the person couldn’t understand me. Why do you hire people that don’t understand basic English sorry to say. And your services are rubbish by the way, I will be cancelling
-
Jason Caine Smith (@jasoncainesmith) reported@virginmedia @VirginMedia Been trying all day to fix CS1011. Your phone system won’t recognise my details due to “maintenance” so I can’t reach support. I’ve been told this needs activation on your side. My elderly father is now without TV. Please contact me urgently.
-
Oldbloke (@Oldbloke74) reported@entrustTMF @virginmedia You cold always telephone their useful call centre 🤡 Virgin Media are such a lousy company to deal with - trouble is the competitors are also terrible. 😤
-
Martinayres65@outloo (@Martinayres65o1) reported@virginmedia are you gaslighting me. 6 days without broadband or TV and you still haven’t done anything to resolve the issue. I live in a city so it’s not as if I’m in the middle of nowhere making it difficult for you to resolve the issue
-
Hussey FM (@djspeedy34) reported@virginmedia Dont say i gotta pay more, I been a loyal customer with you for years
-
Martinayres65@outloo (@Martinayres65o1) reported@virginmedia You’re already aware of the issues, I have an ongoing complaint regarding this. You already have my complaint reference as I gave it your caller today. Who promised someone would ring today. I just need virgin to promise they will restore my Wi-Fi ASAP

CrankyGeek (@pepetideo) reported from Oxford, England@virginmedia @FuzziePieRat Yes.. And how ****** up is it that you treat your existing paying customers so badly they have to attempt to do these hacks to get what you are freely giving away to new customers?
