  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia They’ve been today apparently to do the repull and nothing has changed. Still no service. I won’t be paying this month as I’m not paying for nothing.

  • Radebreast
    Graeme Radebe (@Radebreast) reported from Ormskirk, England

    @virginmedia Hi - Ive noticed alot of people are having the same issues. Its the Sky TV Go app on Playstation 4. Ive checked it on another internet and it works fine so it is definitely an error on your side. You need to sort the internet settings. It struggles to load “on Now” on the app.

  • SoloUtilitaRian

    With the intro of new dedicated Gigabit lines in my street I can't wait to switch over and leave Virgin Media for good. 3x internet has gone down this week and I just called VM. The systems there are down and gotta call back in 3hrs..... useless

  • DannyLannon
    dannyWAFClannon (@DannyLannon) reported from Wigan, England

    @Louisewafc @virginmedia Nice of Stoke fans turn up to support us

  • FloButcher84
    strange little Flo (@FloButcher84) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia still no broadband in bb3 area since Thurs & update now says tomorrow for fix. Shocking customer service, why can't you tell your customers what is happening instead of saying an engineer is on the way on the updates, at least then we would know what to expect

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia It’s to our address, we need a full repull and was told it would be done within 48hrs. This issue has been going on for months, they were just telling me to reboot the hub.

  • SourEnvy
    Elliot ⚽️🏈🎮 (@SourEnvy) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia Afternoon, I have an iPad with a Virgin SIM card that I no longer use. Obviously still need to pay off the monthly device fee but am I able to cancel the SIM plan?

  • Radebreast
    Graeme Radebe (@Radebreast) reported from Ormskirk, England

    @virginmedia what have you done to the Sky TV app - its constantly buffering and showing error messages. Just awful service. Please can you get this sorted ASAP please.

  • KeithJBolton
    Keith Bolton (@KeithJBolton) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia WA9 4SA no Internet. Says no issues in my area but obviously there is

  • pstock62
    Paul Stockton (@pstock62) reported from Horwich, England

    @virginmedia Internet down in BL6 5RN, any idea's

  • CallyRaven
    Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @virginmedia 3 times in 3 weeks we are without internet! We are paying for a service we are not able to use! Are we going to be compensated for this?

  • elisabethhilto4
    Elisabeth Hilton (@elisabethhilto4) reported from Lowton, England

    @virginmedia Trying to make a complaint - signed up to a deal I clearly asked not to be. Your website doesn’t work and can’t get through on the phone. Can someone please dm me with a way to speak to someone urgently

  • Glynpeach
    Glyn Peach (@Glynpeach) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia worst customer support service I’ve ever experienced

  • tuite_liz
    Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia See thread above, nothing changes except the time of the estimated fix. It must be very localised as not everyone in my area is affected. So if it is damaged cables, I haven’t seen anyone out repairing them over the weekend, it’s a joke

  • CallyRaven
    Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @virginmedia I seem to be the first one to report them, still saying intermittent problems in my area. Can't get to speak to anyone on phone, I rely on the Internet.

  • geordiegal97
    Amy 🌼 (@geordiegal97) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia broadband is down. WiFi light is solid green whilst the bar is flashing green. Help!

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia 38 days after the repull should’ve been done? You think that’s good customer service?

  • fos100
    Richard Foster (@fos100) reported from New Longton, England

    Who in their right mind schedules planned maintenance for a Monday morning and says it could go on until three pm? Oh yeah, @virginmedia - cracking service as always #workfromhome #muppets

  • obpls1995
    owen southworth (@obpls1995) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia can you explain why the moment I told your staff over the phone that I was disabled they decided to speak to me as if I was an idiot and then tell me they can't help me because I can't spell out my password despite telling them 5 times what the password was.

  • CallyRaven
    Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @virginmedia And our Internet is down again this morning! So because its intermittent we don't get compensation, tried to call, can't get through (have to do it on mobile, our 'landline' is now internet reliant!)

  • RumouredRebecca
    Rebecca (@RumouredRebecca) reported

    @virginmedia No thanks. We are switching to Sky in 12 days. The bill is extortionate and the service abysmal. Appreciate the message though

  • daddytoatribe
    Kyle (@daddytoatribe) reported

    @virginmedia If you can offer a deal to a new customer you should be able to offer the same deal for existing customers. This is why your retention rate is diabolical because the introductory offers expire and the new offer is 300% more than what they was paying. Should be illegal

  • meta_element
    Yogesh (@meta_element) reported

    @virginmedia virgin media your customer support for broadband billing is such a pain to deal with. Shame on you.

  • df1888
    d_f1888 (@df1888) reported

    @virginmedia @LutzSchueler Shocking customer service from VM. Next step will be contacting the communications ombudsman

  • RobertJoesbury
    Robert Joesbury (@RobertJoesbury) reported

    @virginmedia my internet is down, any chance of an update please?

  • BrianNicholso16
    Brian N (@BrianNicholso16) reported

    @markenello @virginmedia Been through the frustrations too Mark. Almost made my blood boil, cut off several times while on long calls and took ages to manage to leave. Had issues afterwards too. Moved to EE and really happy and a UK call centre with very helpful folk. Fifty pounds a month less too!

  • unknownkd99
    KD (@unknownkd99) reported

    @virginmedia Any reason an engineer hadn't managed to fix our internet issue and instead delayed the fix estimate twice now leaving us without internet for 2 weeks and trying to charge us £700 to leave when your not providing your service?

  • AvaniEbony666
    Rebecca Réva (@AvaniEbony666) reported

    @virginmedia get your broadband sorted or I WILL WALK AWAY WITHOUT PAYING ANY EXIST CONTRACT FEE AS without due adequate or above standard broadband speed and service which has been for the past 3 weeks I WILL be going elsewhere and you can shove it up the *** or SUCK ON IT

  • BillY18201250
    Bill Y (@BillY18201250) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia #Vodafone did this to me with my dad's estate. 2months left on a 24month. Gimme the money and kit back. Then had the cheek to try and upsell the package during the call. I lost it on that one. Think its time #ofcom cracked down on bereavement account closure tactics.

  • Karma_Soul
    L 💉 (@Karma_Soul) reported

    @virginmedia you said my box needs updating as it won’t work anymore if I don’t. I call and update it. I said I don’t want to change my package. You have now doubled my bill? Been on hold for 30 mins no answer and your web chat can’t help. If I wanted to upgrade, you’d pick up
