  • Dalus93 Dale McLean (@Dalus93) reported from Cumbernauld, Scotland

    @alexasry @virginmedia Honestly can not wait to move. Just don't have the money to pay installation fees etc rn which sucks so I'm stuck with them til I do.

  • Dalus93 Dale McLean (@Dalus93) reported from Cumbernauld, Scotland

    No internet until Monday. Good old @virginmedia - told them I'd been having issues for weeks, was told to monitor it, THEN they say 'oh we thought it had resolved itself'... Clearly not if I'm still calling. sounded like they just wanted me off the phone asap tbh. Switching ASAP

  • mick_demarco Housty (@mick_demarco) reported from Larkhall, Scotland

    @virginmedia It's literally only affecting phones now and was on off with laptops. Laptops have been fine for a day, signal is still there from furtheest point of house, just constantly disabling.

  • dyanemccourt Dyane Mccourt (@dyanemccourt) reported from Chapelhall, Scotland

    @reece_dinsdale @virginmedia We got thru after an hour, they are freezing sky sports payments for now. We were £135 got them down to £84, they no longer have over seas advisors working for them there for taking ages to get thru . Keep trying good luck 😉

  • ianwsmith82 Ian Smith (@ianwsmith82) reported from Livingston, Scotland

    Honestly shocking customer service from @virginmedia ******* hopeless.

  • MICKLE_M MICHAEL (@MICKLE_M) reported from Mollinburn, Scotland

    @virginmedia Evening, is there an issue with the Virgin TIVO box tonight as I’m watching something on ‘My shows’ & it all seems to have stopped working!😢

  • AndyMac2805 Andy 🏳️‍🌈🍀🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@AndyMac2805) reported from Cumbernauld, Scotland

    @virginmedia Thanks for the response, I know you’ll be busy, understandably, but my tv/broadband/phone services are not working, and it’s quite necessary since I need to work from home

  • ya_diks Adrienne (@ya_diks) reported from Coatbridge, Scotland

    @virginmedia HELP

  • Dalus93 Dale McLean (@Dalus93) reported from Cumbernauld, Scotland

    @alexasry @virginmedia Yeah I'm on 210/20 for like £40pm, but the quality and customer service recently has been shocking

  • _HannahMcInnes_ Hannah McInnes (@_HannahMcInnes_) reported from Livingston, Scotland

    @virginmedia has they worst customer service I’ve ever experienced, month after month I’ve been trying to sort out my bills with no help whatsoever 80 minutes and I’m still on the phone no further forward as one person says one thing and another person says another😡😡

  • alanmcgown Alan McGown (@alanmcgown) reported from Hamilton, Scotland

    Looks like a bad move trying to contact @virginmedia when you are held on hold for an hour and still waiting

  • cxitlinstowe caits ✿ (@cxitlinstowe) reported from Motherwell, Scotland

  • Caitlin_Curri3 Caitlin Currie (@Caitlin_Curri3) reported from Airdrie, Scotland

    @virginmedia impossible to get in contact to make a complaint

  • Dalus93 Dalus (@Dalus93) reported from Cumbernauld, Scotland

    Im howling. The customer service i have recieved from @virginmedia is an absolute joke. Talking to one of their "internet techs" and they didnt even know what a Cat 6 cable was. Not to mention im paying £41 a month for a service that drops randomly every few days.

  • nursecazza Caroline Bell 🌈 (@nursecazza) reported

    @virginmedia your customer services are a disgrace! Answering the call with “f**k this s**t from one of your advisors who didn’t realise he answered his call but was heard on speaker by me and my son isn’t the image you wish others to see! Now waiting for complaints dept!

  • stewkid22 Stewart Kiddell (@stewkid22) reported

    @virginmedia So I’ll answer the question for you having just spent 3 hours comparing as many packages as possible. There is not a single package that I can get at even the same price let alone cheaper than a new customer. So I’m better off not being loyal to you @virginmedia

  • MyBlondeSpace Laura Jane Stephens 💙 🇪🇺 (@MyBlondeSpace) reported

    @virginmedia Every time it’s happened there have been known issue when I’ve called and reach the automated service, it’s more I would like to know why it keeps happening? I’ve been with virgin for years and never experienced so many in a short period.

  • JacobMullan1 Jacob Lipman (@JacobMullan1) reported

    @virginmedia hi virgin, just tried to ring customer service about getting someone to come and install my wifi but they were unable to book an appointment and said to talk to the engineers about booking a time slot

  • yhoward123 Yolanda (@yhoward123) reported

    @virginmedia I have had intermittent service for weeks. Fed up with being told reboot and monitor for 24 hrs. On hold with call center who want me to reboot yet again and don’t seem to want to help as I have have service at this precise second.

  • sophd221b Sophie Day (@sophd221b) reported

    @virginmedia Broadband and TV are back up and running now but the phone line is still not working, it says "line is use"...

  • Jasgix01 Jason Stenson (@Jasgix01) reported

    @virginmedia None of you actually listen they installed the box on a short lead so I can’t move it the wifi is poor until I complain and then it starts working so that would suggest it’s something from your end.

  • bobcockBKK God Nose (@bobcockBKK) reported

    @virginmedia Interestingly after being so bad two days ago that the TV was unwatchable, last night and tonight had been perfect. Not a single flicker. No changes made. Go figure!

  • AntHeaney Anthony Heaney (@AntHeaney) reported

    @virginmedia Morning, it never did show in the app or my online account but i received a text shortly after my previous tweet confirming the engineer and all is fixed and working now, thanks again

  • R3D3YEJEDI REJ Gaming (@R3D3YEJEDI) reported

    @virginmedia Any insight to what has happened and why it's taking so long would be reasurring, your website only says "engineer on his way to fix the problem" "engineer is fixing the problem"
