    @virginmedia its nice you’re offering new customers ridiculously cheap deals but charging prices through the roof for an inferior service for a customer of nearly 20 years #CostOfLivingCrisis

    Steve Lees (@measlewolf) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia do you have a known issue with the sports channels? They aren’t working and the phone-line cuts me out off.

    Howard Martin 🇺🇦 (@HJMKent) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @virginmedia There are no local problems - I checked yesterday - also my account detail's show my next Virgin bill due next week has had the Netflix subscription removed by you & my Netflix account shows it was last paid in May. I'll try a reboot & see what happens - thank you

    @virginmedia Well if it’s so far taken 5 years I’d say it’s never going to happen surly

    Paul McDonough (@FleeDoubleE) reported from Halesowen, England

    @virginmedia Get this page after I log onto my account page. Which I'm trying to log onto so I can do a service check. I've cleared the cache and tried from my laptop get the same outcome

  • badsneaker5
    Nick Bryant (@badsneaker5) reported from Ironbridge, England

    Yet another failure by @talktalk. After yet more phone calls, no one at TalkTalk is wiling to take ownership of my problem. All I want to do is take my landline number to @Virginmedia at my new address. Talktalk are totally incompetent. No one is actually try to help.

    @virginmedia how do you check the mobile phone signal in your area? I’ve had nine for a few days

  • measlewolf
    Steve Lees (@measlewolf) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia afternoon. I’ve been on hold for 25 mins and when I finally got through the line went dead after security questions. My mum has been without her TV service for over a week. Last night an engineer was due by 6 o’clock and never showed. Another text stating the 26th

  • beffycuk
    𝚋𝚎𝚝𝚑 (@beffycuk) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia Yes, and every-time it says no issue, when there clearly is! It interferes with everything, the hive, the tv everything! Really considering going elsewhere.

  • G1Brady
    Brady (@G1Brady) reported from Perton, England

    @virginmedia why is your site not working I can't login to my account area and also the virgin box is flashing and there's an error code

  • redron1975
    Ronnie Harris (@redron1975) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia so what crap excuse u got today for us in the ws10 area? Internet down again. Honestly if you were a guard dog nothing would be safe. Even less reliable than the weather forecast.

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

    @virginmedia No , when I last spoke to someone on the phone the issue was still happening , it doesn’t happen as much now but still happens at least once a day

  • iamscorchy
    iamscorchy (@iamscorchy) reported from Wednesfield, England

    @virginmedia Experiencing issues in your area there is a technician in the area but still doesn't explain why my routers fans go really loud and disconnected from everything I have to keep resetting to get it back to normal then on top get "issues in my area" like always

  • chrispsaras
    Chris Psaras (@chrispsaras) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia no broadband since yesterday afternoon, told engineers were on route but still no update. Your offshore call centre is also unhelpful and not able to offer any further information. Please can you help?

  • HJMKent
    Howard Martin 🇺🇦 (@HJMKent) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @virginmedia Just to let you know I was billed by you for Netflix on 10 June, the subscription was not paid to Netflix by you - so they cancelled my account! You owe me a refund please! Also this was a issue as far back as May & Virgin were saying "they were addressing it" Still are it seems!

  • gingerandnuts
    Ginger and Nuts (@gingerandnuts) reported from Brownhills, England

    Well @virginmedia you have let so many people down with no apology or update. Disgraceful.

    Cara (@Cara_L_RN) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia Just being able to access pages for support and settings etc. lots of “oops” errors and not loading. This is a small issue, speeds around the house are not good either. Disappointing.

    Melvyn Malloch (@melvynmalloch) reported

    @virginmedia moved to your broadband service from @TalkTalk a few months ago it's something I regret everyday. Your customer service is non existent calls cut off before getting any help same as online help. I have a smart home with multiple devices that can't connect have never

  • oldpoyntz
    MrsM 💙 (@oldpoyntz) reported

    @PeterBakerMcfc @virginmedia Internet is back now. No one touched anything and it goes off. Moving to Community Fibre once this contract is up. I can't keep having these issues & paying through the nose. At least we'll be able to rotate through the apps as and when needed.

  • MarionBrowne42
    Marion Browne (@MarionBrowne42) reported

    @keithapearson @virginmedia @MartinSLewis I think Yodel can challenge VM. They left a package at my neighbour no2, due to the layout of the close, no2 is nowhere near no3 and the photo of proof is also not no2 unless you are in the next close 🤬 An hour on a chat to discover that the driver is an idiot.

  • lennylaw
    Percival Merganser (@lennylaw) reported

    Really good point from Steve. 0345 454 1111 How did I find the number? Went to the “accessibility support” tab on the My Virgin Media app. Always imagine you have a disability. Did they ask? Did they arse. Goes straight to the helpline.

  • RedmondJunkie
    QQ (@RedmondJunkie) reported

    @virginmedia broadband down since yesterday all day. Claims that engineer fixed it at 5pm yesterday only for the service to be down again this morning. What did they fix exactly?! #poorservice#broadband

  • WillVallely
    Wilson (@WillVallely) reported

    @virginmedia 90 minutes on the phone today no resolution. spoke to a manager who asked me to send my contract to them (why they didn’t have it I don’t know). The promise of a call back today to resolve, still not happened. Absolute waste of time .

    @virginmedia There seems to be a broadband issue in HP1 as I have no services and your outage page has identified an issue. Any idea how long this will be down?
