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

    @virginmedia I’ve spoken with someone in the new development team who’s advised they’ve escalated all my complaints and someone should be ringing me directly to take through and fix everything. However no response

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

    @virginmedia And no response on my second, and then an incorrect bill, this is why someone is meant to be ringing me to sort it out and deal properly as I’m so angry with the service received

  • Cuttsrich rich cutts (@Cuttsrich) reported from Tyldesley, England

    Hi, it's Virgin Media. We've put your service visit on hold while we investigate a network problem affecting your services. We'll update you when this is fixed. 3rd time in a week @virginmedia 3rd time in a week

  • buggadog homer t bugga (@buggadog) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia after 72hrs dealing with online customer services, all I’m gettin is pleasantries and no solutions. Intermittent broadband for weeks, can I start paying you intermittently?

  • PaulGee1993 Paul Gee (@PaulGee1993) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia any chance you can follow me back so I can speak to someone about the terrible quality of service I’m currently receiving?

    @virginmedia again my internet is down. Down yesterday down today down 2 days before that. Only fix is to pull the power and force a reboot your routers are rubbish

  • PaulGee1993 Paul Gee (@PaulGee1993) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia The internet speeds we are getting are terrible. Paying for 200mbps and currently getting an average of 24 over the last month and have no way of contacting anyone by phone as it goes dead after holding for an hour

  • AndyMcK1982 Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp Your broadband has been absolutely atrocious for the last two weeks! Constantly buffering! I’m alsoSTILL waiting for my free WiFi signal booster we were promised when we upgraded at Christmas!

  • Knitswithbeer knitswithbeer🐝🏳️‍🌈Stay Home (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    @DisneyPlusUK @NPGLondon @virginmedia better sought out the local outage for this. Wait, I can watch on my tablet via the app you say? Not unless they also sought out the WiFi issue. Call them to complain you say? Not unless they sought out the landline issue...😐

  • Cuttsrich rich cutts (@Cuttsrich) reported from Tyldesley, England

    Mmm @virginmedia wifi down again for the third day in over a week. Any chance anyone can help here

  • Audigier_Jones Ms. Audigier-Jones (@Audigier_Jones) reported from Liverpool, England

  • DallasCowboysMV Michael Vix (@DallasCowboysMV) reported from Atherton, England

  • jakkbtc //jakkxbt (@jakkbtc) reported

    @virginmedia That was NOT offered to me, I was told I'd be cut off if I didn't pay the bill today so I said F.U. It won't be paid, the interest won't be paid, your debt collectors won't come to where I live and is they do they'll not hang around too long. Disgusting, and a ****** reply too.

  • danjoesphlloyd Danny (@danjoesphlloyd) reported

    @virginmedia It doesn't show up on my account, which is the problem. But an O2 sim card and the basic (free) TV service was supposed to be include. I received the sim card, but no TV

  • gerags99 Steve_G (@gerags99) reported

    Hi @virginmedia can you tell me why, since "essential works" in B62 on 22 Aug I've only had 1 day where I've not had an outage of some sort. Even when I was told there was no prob on the 12th I was messaged that my issue was fixed on the 13th? Need @Ofcom for help on this #lies

  • FunnyDALL_E DALL-E (@FunnyDALL_E) reported

    @virginmedia Any update @virginmedia on what has caused this outage and what exact work has to be done? Many thanks

  • thewascal wascal (@thewascal) reported

    @virginmedia But they literally won’t, that is what I’m trying to tell you - they won’t log a complaint, they say things are investigated to get you off the line and then log nothing. I can’t raise to ombudsman until a complaint has been logged for 8 weeks. But you won’t log a complaint!

  • DoubleHelixTra1 Helen Jones : Double Helix Translations (@DoubleHelixTra1) reported

    @virginmedia I've already tried that but I just get a message that you're unable to test the connection 🙁 I'm just on the chat now so hopefully they can help 🤞

  • KaitlinSiddiq_ ksid🌸 (@KaitlinSiddiq_) reported

    @virginmedia Because they are literally trying to ruin my entire life, they keep passing me about and I know you can’t help but I need somewhere to navigate my frustration!

  • jakkbtc //jakkxbt (@jakkbtc) reported

    @virginmedia If you keep on like that your business won't last much longer. You've lost a customer to @BT and I'll make sure there's more that join me in leaving you and your debt to try, TRY, and collect anything. Your customer service is disgusting, Indian based s**theads who can barely...

  • imcxllumbtw TW!?K (@imcxllumbtw) reported

    Can someone @virginmedia tell me why the WiFi will go down for hours every single day?

  • KatMButton Kat.Miskelly (@KatMButton) reported

    @virginmedia I would just like to talk to a person. We have issues and we are considering leaving. The only number for existing customers is automated.
