    @virginmedia an absolute disgrace all night the pixelating of every channel on our boxes plus all Bolton the same! Service Status saying nothing wrong! Sort it Virgin! We pay for a service!

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

    @virginmedia TV/Broadband issues again! WN2

  • josie_allan Jo Mclaughlin (@josie_allan) reported from Horwich, England

    I’m not sure how we could overcome WIFI access but surely there is a way that friendly bods @SkyUK @virginmedia could support to stop children missing out on remote teaching - digital poverty sucks

  • NealJFletcher Neal Fletcher (@NealJFletcher) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Nope, no outages. It’s been the same for days now. As I say, it seems a common issue with your customers and has been for well over a year

  • mattwood1702 Matt Attwood (@mattwood1702) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia trying to work from home and it goes off, check online & network maintenance. Why cant you notify us to let us know doing maintenance. Communication company but cant tell customers what's going on 😡😡

  • AngWaterhouse Angela Waterhouse (@AngWaterhouse) reported from Euxton, England

    @virginmedia I can’t get through by phone-landline or mobile. Are all your phone lines down? #virginmediadown

  • lewishorsey92 Lewis Horsfield (@lewishorsey92) reported from Warton, England

    @virginmedia your internet service is a ******* shambles. How do I contact someone to make an official complaint about the service I receive. Which is non existent for most of the week?

  • emmawinstanley1 emma2511 (@emmawinstanley1) reported from Aspull, England

    @virginmedia finding it very difficult to get through to someone to discuss technical support please help

  • lewishorsey92 Lewis Horsfield (@lewishorsey92) reported from Warton, England

    @virginmedia can you help me I’m trying to register my device with virgin tv go and everytime I go onto it it says to register the device. I’ve done this 5 times and now it’s not allowing me to watch anything because maximum number of devices have been registered

  • GeoffJonners Geoff Johnson (@GeoffJonners) reported from Bolton, England

    Any chance you can sort this picture issue out @virginmedia

  • NealJFletcher Neal Fletcher (@NealJFletcher) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia No, the picture still looks like I’m watching TV on a cheese grater. Looking at a few threads on your forum this isn’t a new issue either, customers have been experiencing this for well over a year. How’s about I stop paying for the TV part of the package until it’s sorted??

  • wilsonbecks1 Rebecca Wilson 🌈 (@wilsonbecks1) reported from Bolton, England

    I would be grateful if someone from customer services at @virginmedia could contact me regarding the lack of service received since moving over to @virginmedia

  • Shigufta1 Shigufta khan (@Shigufta1) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia Problems with my TV very frustrating not being able to speak to anyone. For a communication provider the service being offered is not acceptable

  • lewishorsey92 Lewis Horsfield (@lewishorsey92) reported from Warton, England

    @virginmedia The cookies are always active. As I said I didn’t close the browser I just refreshed the page. So now 5 slots are taken by my MacBook. But it won’t allow me to watch on my MacBook so what can you do to help me?

  • JoeHolmes1994 Joe (@JoeHolmes1994) reported from Leigh, England

    @virginmedia I need to cancel a engineer appointment for Wednesday. I’ve already been on the phone 40 minutes and I’m not waiting any longer especially after being told ‘we’ll prioritise you’. Please cancel it otherwise it’s a pointless trip for your engineer

  • Bolt100Wands boltonbwfc (@Bolt100Wands) reported from Bolton, England

    Once again @virginmedia tried to ring you but your customer care is shocking. I know of over 100 people plus in the Bolton area with continuing pixelating on ur TV Service which means you cannot watch TV! This needs sorting ASAP! Shocking service and unacceptable with what I pay!

  • lewishorsey92 Lewis Horsfield (@lewishorsey92) reported from Warton, England

    @virginmedia Okay let me start from the beginning and just read everything I say and then give me a solution. I tried watching on my Mac last night. It kept telling me to register my device so I did. And now it’s saying there’s max devices registered and won’t let me watch anything

  • mallen_87 Matt Allen 🔶 (@mallen_87) reported from Horwich, England

    @virginmedia I would like to cancel my services with you. When I go online to do this I’m directed to call in. When I call in the IVR directs me online. Can you help?

    @virginmedia How about actually a good service and not provide **** internet

  • Punishlife Presentlife (DT) (@Punishlife) reported

    @maleficent910 Well I'm ****** if i ever want to discuss my internet, I'm with Virgin Media, if that goes down mid stream I'll get banned for aaying "god damn it virgin" ?

  • adamwilson_10 Adam Wilson (@adamwilson_10) reported

    Hi @virginmedia yet again more issues with my broadband speeds or not connecting at all. Ive spoken to you on the phone and via the chat and still not working. Who is best to speak to about cancelling my contract?

  • nayasaveraCIO Gurpreet (@nayasaveraCIO) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia Telephone service suggests the same to do so all the reporting system is hopeless! Getting someone to look at it after 6 days is not good enough, knowing how important it is for people working from home

  • faberbishopp Faber & Bishopp (@faberbishopp) reported

    @virginmedia Cannot get through. What I would like is for them to exit the property and for a PPE’d engineer work on the box in the lounge. Otherwise we want to cxl as he’s not receiving a good service. Thank you for your help. It will literally change his Xmas to be able to watch sport.

  • OdeanMarik A rodent by anyother name is just as squeak (@OdeanMarik) reported

    @virginmedia Oh and that bot number, never responded. It said someone would get back in 4 hours. Nothing. People are relying on their services. Virgin should actually care about that instead of outsourcing customer service for cheaper and poorer CS.

  • Ella32823623 Ella 💙 (@Ella32823623) reported

    @paulwhitefa @virginmedia Hope your mum is ok now, Paul. How I wish twitter had been around when @virginmedia did exactly the same to me when my husband was terminally ill, then they harassed me for three months after he died to pay a non existent bill! They are the worst.

  • brettclaxton Brett Claxmas ❄️ (@brettclaxton) reported

    Update on this: after getting fed up with the complaint bot loop I phoned up @virginmedia. Was reassured my bill was definitely the price I believe it is and was told I would get a phonecall back. Never got a phonecall and bill of £50 has just gone out. Beyond frustrated.

  • jennbeams Jennie Cox (@jennbeams) reported

    @virginmedia being totally useless this morning. Not only did you unilaterally turn off my internet router, but then the helpline just hangs up on you when you ring for help - after SUGGESTING TO LOOK ONLINE FOR HELP - YOUR INTERNET DOES NOT WORK, HOW DO I LOOK ONLINE, MUPPET?

  • Shakacarnage Gareth Williams (@Shakacarnage) reported

    @brettclaxton @virginmedia I took Virgin to.ombudsmen and won a while back. They were cited for.poor.customer service. If they tell you one thing, and do another, you'll win, as they have to take notes on every call. Advise them if it's not refunded with a goodwill credit, ombudsmen.
