    @virginmedia There seems to be an issue with your WiFi in Perton (Wolverhampton WV6). The problem has gone from intermittent, to no reception at all.

    @virginmedia sort your ******* broadband out. It’s every other day that it goes down, and is beyond a joke now.

  • stumccullagh Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Solihull, England

    I seem to speak to @virginmedia more than I do my kids , been on hold for just the 54mins now regarding the fast speed broadband i pay for but never get!

  • nickit81 nicola titley (@nickit81) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia why am I not getting any help for the past 4 weeks for intermittent broadband when I call all I get is monitor for the next 24 hours I am getting no help whatsoever but you will want me to pay my bill on time your service and customer service is disgusting

  • jedimasterob1 Steve Galloway (@jedimasterob1) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia Yes, same issue as Monday evening and been advised no service until 11pm!

  • GameAndClay Keats (@GameAndClay) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia Thanks Virgin, it’s been emotional to say the least, I think Vouchers are a good way to say sorry @virginmedia as a new customer it says you value the trust i can put in to our future relationship. Thoughts?

  • AshScrivens Ashley Robert Scrivens (@AshScrivens) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I haven’t really got anywhere, I wanted ideally to discuss the process I went through and what I was advised online placing my upgrade. I have contacted CD via text but i have just been told nothing can be done and pick a new tariff! Struggled to try raise a complaint also...

  • jedimasterob1 Steve Galloway (@jedimasterob1) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia Yes, it has since been resolved. This is not the first time I’ve had this issue and frequently not getting the speeds I am paying for. Not your happiest customer by any stretch of the imagination!

  • AshScrivens Ashley Robert Scrivens (@AshScrivens) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Sorry my tweet mentioned I contacted customer service via text. Asked for my complaint to be raised to a senior manager to discuss the upgrade process and wording, but was just offered a deadlock letter within 15 days! Not your procedure in your complaints code of practice..

  • Jasonhannon85 Jason Hannon (@Jasonhannon85) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia not sure who I’m supposed to be contacting on this but my phone service keeps going in and out is there a problem in Solihull?

    @virginmedia They are coming out tomorrow to rewire it but what I am saying is. It's not our fault and the internet will be down for hours while they do the work so, what compensation do Virgin offer as I can't work.

  • SDH1844 Sue Higgins (@SDH1844) reported

    @virginmedia Have to use WhatsApp to communicate with chatbot that is useless. Waiting now for them to contact us. Usual terrible service. I left virgin and looks like my daughter will soon be doing the same. 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

  • MarianRose76 Marian (@MarianRose76) reported

    @virginmedia what causes pixelation? Recorded shows have periods of severe pixelation in them. E4 shoes are particularly bad. Help

  • HeyOnlyMeAgain Sam (@HeyOnlyMeAgain) reported

    @virginmedia internet down again bn41 area. Seriously wth is going on

  • slinkierbubbles Eva Peacock (@slinkierbubbles) reported

    @LeePartridge16 @virginmedia My daughter works in their soul destroying 'disconnections' team. She get abuse daily for their shoddy treatment of existing customers. By all means, be angry at the business, but don't take it out on the poor staff who know how bad it is but powerless to do much about it.

  • _huz2 Hamza 🇵🇸 (@_huz2) reported

    @virginmedia Ok, that’s fine then. I am keeping a log of every hour my internet is down you will be billed £500 p/hour until it’s resolved.

  • MissyJoJo96 💕🌼💗 Sandra Siddall 💗🌼💕 (@MissyJoJo96) reported

    I think it's time to move on from #virginmedia I have been a customer over 7 years but the issues with broadband dropping off and the high prices is just too much and it's just far too expensive to stay!

  • lou_bie Louise Francis (@lou_bie) reported
