@virginmedia I have tried to play nice going through YOUR hoops to cancel installation. If you are going to make it so hard to cancel then you can waste your money sending engineers out to us. Signed A Former Potential Customer.

@virginmedia @ade5star Virgin media, why is your service web page not reporting the outages being experienced by so many in the KT region? This has been going on since Monday!

@Gadgetoid @PhilGrimley @virginmedia Yeah, it's not phone copper but it's coax. Quite technically impressive, but the issue with VM is very area dependant.

@virginmedia you know you have a scam account @virygyinmedia that is DM’ing people that tweet you with issues asking for card details as security, they have even cloned your Twitter page🤬🤬

@virginmedia I've just tried to use that service again, specifically the message us route, and it just redirected me to the home page over and over again

@virginmedia how do I cancel my subscription my contract has ended and doubled in price so im guessing you will be wanting your boxes and router back

. @virginmedia is comfortably the worst WiFi I have experienced. 2 new super hubs and it’s still useless, impossible to get work done!

@virginmedia I’ve never called in the 3 years I’ve been with you so can’t remember them but I have all my other information I really need this sorted as I have been paying £63 for something I cancelled on 15th November

@virginmedia I've have been trying to contact you for weeks about my awful internet especially the wifi, after being on hold twice for a hour and half you cut me off both times, I've since had to put your awful superhub into modem mode and buy my own router to cure the problem, great service

@PhilGrimley @virginmedia The real person at fault here is whoever figured out how to squeeze internet down copper phone lines... and thought “I’ll tell my boss instead of taking this horrible secret to my grave.” But that said... virgin is fibre and even *that’s* sucking right now 😐

(@102lysh) reported
@virginmedia Several times, yes. But my family keep being advised of ‘blackspots’ of signal in our house when that can’t be the case as nothing has changed in my home for this to randomly occur. We’ve been sent a new router, and wifi boosters with no luck

Vaughn Williams
(@VaughnWilliam16) reported
@virginmedia Yes we have two boxes, and both were connected correctly, and both had no signal just for those channels. All other channels were fine. Both boxes reset numerous times and HDMI cables swapped over😫

@virginmedia I sent screencaps in this thread of the missing buttons or icons when your colleague suggested the same. If i follow that route it wants me to sign in, which we know I am unable to.

@virginmedia every time I try to phone up it just cuts me off and says try resetting your equipment. How on earth do I speak to someone about a VPN issue which you have blocked which I need to safely work from home????

@virginmedia After trying your suggestions over and over again for 2 weeks I'm starting to think the problem might not be my end 🤔

@virginmedia Via online link and it took a payment of i believe £1.50 to cancel I’m sure it was through the virgin app

@virginmedia NL - one of the tech team engineers has ordered a new Hub. No need to chat at 12pm now. Feedback for VM: unnecessarily frustrating and time-consuming way of trying to fulfil a simple customer request. If my options weren't so limited I would have left VM. Experience = very poor.

(@MinnieCooper5) reported
@virginmedia Been on hold for 25 minutes to cancel my contract. Got through to John who said he’d have to transfer me (despite being in the cancellations dept). Waited a further 7 minutes and was then cut off. What do you suggest? I don’t have all day to wait on a phone to you.
