  • gunsmoke70 Richard Martin (@gunsmoke70) reported from Manningtree, England

    @7pudinis @virginmedia Was signal issue that originated from the Initial install yrs ago, bent wire in outside box, I guess over the yrs degraded till no signal, all fixed now

  • steevXIII Steve Tovey (@steevXIII) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Hi. Please read the thread. One App doesn't work properly, my TV box is generally fine. From a quick Google I can see it is a problem for other people with Virgin Media TiVo boxes too where the @All4 app doesn't load programmes. I can access the app and all the menu screens.

  • Grovesy71 Darren Grove (@Grovesy71) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia contract changed last year, advised incorrectly by advisor, discussed with call centre & complained via your complaints procedure - no calls received to date to address from now over 1 month from complaint date #shockingservice for a loyal customer

  • FolkardSimon Simon Folkard (@FolkardSimon) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I have something called a TP Adapter? in my room. When it is able to come through that the signal is brilliant, but for some reason it is not coming through right now.

  • steevXIII Steve Tovey (@steevXIII) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I've been having this issue continuously for a couple of months and they are still continuing. Yes.

  • Griggsy1968 Mark Griggs (@Griggsy1968) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia So, 3 phone calls over 50 mins all cut off! All I wanted to do was pay off a handset and upgrade a contract. Customer service 0/10!

  • Laitty Graeson Laitt (@Laitty) reported from Colchester, England

    Great time for my internet to go down again. Third time this week @virginmedia #colu

  • 2FingersRampant 2 Fingers Rampant (@2FingersRampant) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia service completely out at CO2 8QA and local area. Status page says all ok, so can you explain this please. Urgent work priority.

  • FolkardSimon Simon Folkard (@FolkardSimon) reported from Colchester, England

    @krista_leia I don't know what to believe anymore, he told me on Sunday that Virgin Media were comping to fix it but it's now so bad i cannot even connect it. I can get wi-fi installed here just for me, but you usually need a phone line and the cost is going to be fairly high.

  • leezaloops Leeza Morley (@leezaloops) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia No I didn’t and I don’t remember receiving one. I have checked all my emails from you and nothing. I rang a couple of days ago to ask for a discount and was basically told to get lost. I spend £100 a month with you guys and was shocked at the service. Account name Lisa Morley.

  • steevXIII Steve Tovey (@steevXIII) reported from Colchester, England

    Anyone else have a problem with All4 app on @virginmedia Can access the menu / home page but anytime I try to actually watch a programme I get a black screen & 4 dots endlessly blinking, as if buffering, but the show never, eeeevveerrr appears... On Googling, seems common issue?

  • robinsontonyLIR be kind and be nice. (@robinsontonyLIR) reported from Colchester, England

    @InTheseHeels Have you tried turning it on and off again? .....OK in all seriousness it happens to me on my LAN . I concluded as I'm on a domestic connection, Virgin Media , I suspect they refresh the network to loose dormant connections periodically and I get booted off for a few secs

  • FolkardSimon Simon Folkard (@FolkardSimon) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Sorry i will not be able to as it is the landlord who is the customer. Thanks though i appreciate it.

  • kennythekilt kenny wilson (@kennythekilt) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Your staff should put the customer first pass the enquiry to another team member take break late or offer a call back

  • gunsmoke70 Richard Martin (@gunsmoke70) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia what’s the issue with the service in colchester CO2 area

  • ColletteLynn_ ¢σℓℓєттє ℓуηη мσσяє♥ (@ColletteLynn_) reported from Great Horkesley, England

    @Howard_Norton @Virgin I haven’t even managed to get through to @virginmedia yet despite multiple attempts and long holds to even comment on their actual customer service. The fact they are trying to charge me for something I have cancelled and haven’t used is beyond the joke already! #poorservice

  • FolkardSimon Simon Folkard (@FolkardSimon) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I managed to get through on the other number as i had forgotten my old account no, the bill is paid and i now have an installation date. I appreciate your help.

  • kennythekilt kenny wilson (@kennythekilt) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Not worth it if you cared it would have been dealt with I will leave and tell everyone and anyone to avoid your NOT customer caring company

  • kennythekilt kenny wilson (@kennythekilt) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Nope didn’t hear back from them I wasn’t wasting my time and your poor customer service

  • RUSSELL91779006 RUSSELL WALKER (@RUSSELL91779006) reported from Colchester, England

    @IpMcdonald Snap...the same for me, but with virgin media. Absolutely abysmal service.

  • AdamRusted bɘƚꙅuЯ mɒbA (@AdamRusted) reported

    Love how the @virginmedia troubleshooter says there's no issues with their network locally, and must be with my home network - and the moment I click on 'make a complaint' on their website, my upload speed is fixed 🤔

  • EwanMetcalf Machiavelli (@EwanMetcalf) reported

    @virginmedia Bound to waste more of my time ringing your ******* awful, lying , useless customer dis service team Waiting 1 or 2 hours waiting being transferred from team to team Lied to more, actions not being carried out engineers not turning up notes not being made on the system @ofcom

  • benjamin_sabin Ben Sabin ¦ AKA: Bi-Gon Jinn (@benjamin_sabin) reported

    @lady_jeanette @virginmedia Holy ****, they're actually responding to you on here. I'm shocked! Last year when I was moving, it was literally impossible to get hold of anyone. Never going back to them

  • Tweedie Trent Ireton (@Tweedie) reported

    @virginmedia F008950799... apparently going to be a week with total loss of service?

  • Conuggy Christine C (@Conuggy) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp my broadband was down for several days went online (at work) and arranged an engineer visit.. it’s back on how to cancel CANNOT connect via login doesn’t recognise me or my memorable question please advise how to cancel 👍

  • Tweedie Trent Ireton (@Tweedie) reported

    @virginmedia Can you give me an update on the outage in W3 area? Your status checker says everything is fine when it clearly isn’t. When I call I get the auto response “our technicians are working hard but it’s complicated”...

  • xxredsunsetxx Not just a mam (@xxredsunsetxx) reported

    @virginmedia absolutely disgusted at your customer service and to be practically called a liar can't wait to get rid of contract

  • jacub32 Jake scullion (@jacub32) reported

    @virginmedia Its not just the crap speed im getting, it cuts off every night. Don’t advertise speeds if you cant give them, imagine i didnt guarantee me paying the bill, youd soon be on the phone then! I signed a contract for 350 so where is my 350??? Your breaking the terms of it

  • Superwhammybar Oliver Whitwam (@Superwhammybar) reported

    @virginmedia That's not really the problem. The problem is the constant miscommunication. Telling me the visit isn't required, then that it is required. That I won't lose internet, that I will lose internet. Also, if I was going to lose internet - why was it booked without asking me?

  • Just1aThemDayz 🦄🏳️‍🌈NotEvery1LikesMe🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🦄 (@Just1aThemDayz) reported

    @virginmedia Poor intermittent service for the past 4 and a half years
