    @virginmedia @virginhelp how long do I have to keep paying you a fortune for a terrible internet service which only works when you’re sat next to the router. Crap service as per usual😡😡

  • enkeli85
    Clare Old (@enkeli85) reported from Southampton, England

    Disconnect from @virginmedia on 28 Feb. Still get charged a month bill on 1 Mar & been told I'll both need to wait 45 days for my refund & that it will be credited the same day. Great help for budgeting & doesn't help that customer service chat couldn't understand the issue 🙄

    @virginmedia how about wasting less time advertising new products and get your damn internet and tv service to work for more than a few days without a problem!

    @virginmedia Your pre-installs team cannot assist either. It seems nobody can actually help.

    @hantsconnect @virginmedia Hi - I already logged a complaint when the damage was done 1st time

  • PandaKingPinder
    Panda 🐼 (@PandaKingPinder) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia We have tried adding a new service and thinking of leaving as none of the others apply and there is no option to call for upgrading. Your automatic service is not helpful and it would be easier to just go through to speak to someone.

    I'm gonna summarise 2 things I've developed a verdict on since my tv broke down. the @virginmedia app for windows = perfect. works great. the @SkySports app for windows = ******* horrendus! i dont understand why sky sports needs a separate app to watch them

  • enkeli85
    Clare Old (@enkeli85) reported from Southampton, England

    Woke up to a familiar site from @virginmedia Internet down, first time in the new house but it's painfully familiar!!! Not ideal when working at home, especially when one of you reports for the NHS. Of course status checker says no issues 🙄

  • Vdweller
    Vivienne 💙🧡🌻 (@Vdweller) reported from Southampton, England

    @GeorgeMonbiot @timolarch @VodafoneUK My husband had the same problem with Virgin Media after the death of his father. He was given the number of the ‘bereavement department’ and he phoned, assuming they would help. Instead the woman demanded his father’s PIN and said only he could cancel!

    Was incredibly annoyed at service from @virginmedia today. After sending back the old equipment 6 weeks ago, we received an email saying we were going to be charged for not sending it back. I called up 10 days ago and was told the charge would be removed and not to worry...

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia The installation is still not complete! That’s the problem. Virgin was ordered on 2nd oct. First install was planned on 17/10 and then cancelled by Virgin. Virgin have cancelled 8-10 times since. It’s now 08/12! 52 days and counting

  • crumblechris
    chris (@crumblechris) reported from Winchester, England

    @virginmedia Thanks - but that phone line isn’t recognising when I enter digits on the key pad - so is useless.your website still says ‘no issues’ after more than 4 hours of no internet connection.

    Cheers @virginmedia WiFi gone down in the middle of the FA cup semi final. Utter **** as usual

On matey question I flack through channels via virgin media no problem on any channel including the awful gb news however on Freeview all channels good Quality except the awful gb news which the worst of the lot a bit like the content I dot know about sky fst

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia I raised a complaint previously, and then found out a week later that the complaint hadn’t been processed. I had to raise it again. It seems something deep-rooted is wrong with virgins customer service systems.

  • Danzy92
    Craig (@Danzy92) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia Yes, I’ve checked everyday and despite signing up for text updates about this issue, I’ve heard nothing despite being 48 hours after the date it was supposed to be fixed. Not even a further text so confirm a delay. Could you provide any update to the SO15 postcode issue?

  • rahim94
    Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    At this rate, Virgin Media is gonna have to change their name because that's bound to offend some woke idiot somewhere 🙄 #BBCQT

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia This has already been dealt with yea, we’re continuing just because it feels as if we’ve waited too long to cancel now. Plus, Virgin are crediting me £5.35 for every day of delay that they’ve caused (55 days and counting).

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia Several complaints have been raised. I’ve been calling most days since October 2nd. Come someone please help?

  • rahim94
    Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    Oh it's broadband price hike time again!! You can almost guarantee @virginmedia will try and increase the broadband prices by more than the CPI figures, then drop it back down as soon as you phone up and mention the word "Sky" EVERY. BLOODY. TIME. #MartinLewis

    @virginmedia I have no tv at all , its stuck on updating channels after 360 installation been 18 hours like this !! Your tech team (sigh) say its due to this global outage? Really ? Or is it just ****

  • tracy_s1
    tracy_s (@tracy_s1) reported

    @virginmedia Now saying that the estimated fix time is 10.05 tomorrow that means 24 hours without the use of tv service we pay for @virginmedia will we get compensation for this?

  • RobPhonetix
    Phonetix (@RobPhonetix) reported

    @virginmedia What about those of us repeatedly requesting our myvirginmedia account be unlocked for the last 6 weeks (& even lodged a complaint about it) who are STILL unable to access our accounts with no explanation?

  • Mike_J_Bradley
    Michael Bradley #FBPE #SocialistSunday (@Mike_J_Bradley) reported

    @virginmedia When is this likely to be? I have stuck on the welcome page for over 24hrs. This is not acceptable and no information being shared on what the problem is and when service is likely to be resumed. Very poor

  • matthewailin
    Matthew Holmes (@matthewailin) reported

    @virginmedia You boys going to sort this out tonight or are we still waiting for yesterday morning’s expected fix?

  • MableandMeUK
    Onyourbikeson (@MableandMeUK) reported

    @virginmedia your O2 account integration is through worst ever. All I want to do is check my O2 bundle and I'm stuck in a never ending loop of being asked to link my accounts. Been crap for so long.

    @virginmedia ITV still not working

  • jayneycee
    Jayne Catherall (@jayneycee) reported

    @virginmedia This is why we left you and went with @skytv as your service had become so unreliable

  • debski2222
    hellooooooooo (@debski2222) reported

    @BriefcaseMike @virginmedia I hope it comes back on for you ASAP. That's the trouble with these companies, you're late with a payment and they're all over you. But if they fail to provide service they shrug their shoulders.

    @virginmedia your WiFi is still not working. Please sort it out.
