  • Conor87 Concobhar Dochartaigh (@Conor87) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia I want to cancel my contract but can’t get through to anyone on the phone.

    @virginmedia im ready to throw your modem in the bin and get onto the ombudsman you don’t provide a service you false advertise and your charging me for nothing!!

  • cathcrilly Catherine Crilly (@cathcrilly) reported from Liverpool, England

    Guys I know the world is a toilet and very bad things are happening but if there's going to be one thing to tip me over the edge, it'll be the Virgin Media interface. Absolute fiasco every time you go to watch anything 🆘

  • walshy31 Paul Walsh (@walshy31) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia In work now! Family struggling at home will have to do tonight! Are there other steps you can message me. messaging on here last week service been terrible and believe the whole area from speaking to friends and family! Virgin need to acknowledge and communicate if bigger issues.

  • ansumDave David Harrison (@ansumDave) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Ringing your service once more how pathetic is it

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

    @virginmedia can you tell me what hours live chat are open. My delivery never came on Saturday and the live chat box won’t show on webpage to be able to contact someone

  • KayakmooseF Kayakmoose (@KayakmooseF) reported from Liverpool, England

    @BeanToast @skytv @virginmedia Check each month's bill very carefully as they are prone to be really inconsistent when it comes to billing. I wouldn't use them at all but no others can provide speed like there's in my area. Once others start providing a service like virgin I will be changing providers.

  • mymatedex @gm (@mymatedex) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia any chance someone could help me. Been trying to get through for 2 hours. Want to cancel my TVcontract and this is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do to cancel. Going around in circles 🤯

  • scottcvrroll Scott Carroll (@scottcvrroll) reported from Liverpool, England

    Honestly feel like the last few months have been a battle with persistent internet issues. It’s become tiring and stressful @virginmedia.

  • HolGaffneyx Hol (@HolGaffneyx) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia Still nothing, we were told 24 hours and they would call but still no call, wondering if you can tell me how long this will take? Cause I'll cancel and go elsewhere

  • CharlieIDIC IDIC (@CharlieIDIC) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia your sales team are telling people that upgrading to 200 speed will fix WiFi issues. I was looking for a new deal but don’t want to sign up until it’s guaranteed I can get WiFi in more than 2 rooms. I live in a small 3 bed and I’m on my 2nd router which is worse

  • AidenMontgomery Aiden Montgomery (@AidenMontgomery) reported from Westhoughton, England

    Really fed up with my @virginmedia internet connection. Months of packet loss causing voice calls to be unintelligible. Constantly losing connection. Multiple ‘engineer’ visits and its still terrible. Two days in a row now the hub says No RF Signal. Stay away from it!

  • Michael_Gleeson Michael Gleeson (@Michael_Gleeson) reported from Bolton, England

    .@virginmedia is getting unbearably bad now. I’m sick to death of having to pay for extra data on my phone.

  • sheilahibberd Sheila Hibberd (@sheilahibberd) reported from Rainford, England

    @virginmedia please help V6 box is playing up, causes tv to keep going off from a few seconds to making tv turn off. It is not the TV as works fine on freeeview

  • ansumDave David Harrison (@ansumDave) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Bet if I owed money you would be in constant contact Can you arrange for call back Can you take ownership You should have a complete r could ed of notes after I have contacted you Wednesday Thursday and today this week alone Also contacted with same issue last 3 years

  • scousenat *scousenat😘 (@scousenat) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Via text messages and phone calls and get no where ...I was told an engineer was visiting it never happened lodged a complaint and heard nothing back I went out of this contract now

  • markrp64 MarkRP (@markrp64) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia is the WiFi down in Wavertree Liverpool. Tried rebooting our hub and still no success. Two days without WiFi. Tried phoning the other day but gave up after 50 mins,

  • borntorun127 Sid (@borntorun127) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Is there any coincidence that since i said i was closing my account, both Tv & Broadband have crashed 3 to 4 times daily? And you'll expect me to pay for this **** service

  • Mrs_I_B Irena 🇺🇦 (@Mrs_I_B) reported

    @virginmedia We were told it was wiring issue and engineers were working on it I am really getting desperate for some sort of resolution

  • chasheehan Chris Sheehan (@chasheehan) reported

    @virginmedia Why don’t you actually hire more staff? You’ve had a message running for 5 years plus that demand is ‘unprecedented’. Which, you know, is kind of contradictory. You’ve gone from having the rep for legendary customer service to having the worst.

  • BionicBK Bianca © (@BionicBK) reported

    @virginmedia When I use the URL previously it said everything is fine but when I call it says there is an issue in the area with no ETA on a fix?

  • dukeoftadley Richard High (@dukeoftadley) reported

    @virginmedia That’s interesting because so far, every customer service agent has said ‘sorry nothing more I can do’. Might want to have someone look at that!

  • SheenaTWLFC Sheena (@SheenaTWLFC) reported

    @virginmedia Hi. I’ve recently stopped tv package and you want the boxes back. I haven’t received packaging. I’ve been hanging on the phone for 30 minutes. Can you please help?

    @virginmedia They say i cant upgrade now on this number .cos it was sent back ..pour service from virgin .rude opperator that cut me off . cant change number and cant upgrade for a fault on yodels part ..ombusman it is then

  • GMatheson5 G Matheson (@GMatheson5) reported

    @virginmedia No we didn't - never have. I've been about six times since I started my contract - think I rang first time just in case but have just made sure roaming etc was on since then.

  • FayeLouisee_x Faye Gallagher 🖤 (@FayeLouisee_x) reported

    @virginmedia how is it I have unlimited minutes, yet it’s telling me I don’t have enough credit to ring someone? An telling me spending cap reached never had this issue until upgrading

  • sorayamatthews_ Soraya Matthews (@sorayamatthews_) reported

    @virginmedia Moving house. We’re requesting for the service to be transferred. If you can’t we have to cancel so we can find an alternative solution. But your team has said they will then charge a cancellation. We are happy to stay with @virginmedia

  • BionicBK Bianca © (@BionicBK) reported

    @virginmedia Is there an ETA for when the issue for phone and wifi will be fixed pls?
