    @virginmedia Your resolution to this is for me to pay you money for a service I don’t use as I cancelled it. How is that a resolution? You are just not listening to me.

    @NewWorldLoading @ODEONCinemas I pulled off the ultimate scam by using the O2 priority app which I now have access to as a customer of @virginmedia following their recent merger 😈 Free ticket at odeon every Monday

    @virginmedia Further to this, my install date has now been pushed back to 13/12. A quarter of a year later than quoted. This is unacceptable and the joke is, it won’t even happen then! It’ll get pushed back again. My partner is pregnant and Virgin are seriously letting us down. Shameful

    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia Every one of your engineers that I’ve spoken to have also warned me that your customer service is diabolical. The only truth I’ve been told by a Virgin rep

  • BrainTumourSurg
    Paul Grundy (@BrainTumourSurg) reported from Winchester, England

    Thanks to @virginmedia they install new broadband which worked for about 5 minutes. Now nothing. Follow all instructions to fix. Waited 5 hours this morning for the privilege and now 1 hour on phone still on hold Should have paid attention to the terrible reviews #wastedmyday 🤬

    Hi Is there a problem in the SO30 area? @virginmedia

    @virginmedia I'll try to sign in with a different email address.

    @virginmedia @NetflixUK You may as well not have a customer services team. I’ve spoken to one helpful person in the 53 days I’ve been chasing Virgin for my install.

    @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😡😡

  • DIZZYDJC
    Daniel John 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺 (@DIZZYDJC) reported from West End, England

    @virginmedia It's both. I have been doing some digging and it's the upload speeds. They are not getting anywhere over 2MB /sec which is not good enough. It has been very slow over the last couple of days

  • Duckocide

    @virginmedia Still not working. About to phone

  • leeradcliffe73
    lee Radcliffe (@leeradcliffe73) reported from Southampton, England

    @VMO2News @virginmedia @goodthingsfdn All the money we pay for this awful broadband is a joke. Oh just get the plug in booster for an extra £5 a month this will help!!! 2m from the router and can’t even send this. 3G is better than virgin. Bring on toob 🕺🏻

  • Duckocide
    Duckocide Games (@Duckocide) reported from Andover, England

    @thedarkfenix @virginmedia I hope so. I really rely on the service now.

  • kaz123s
    Karen Simpson (@kaz123s) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia so we’ve been with out our tv service since yesterday morning. The service checker has had the fixed time extended twice. What is going on?

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

    @virginmedia The same live date of the 21st still stands. Virgin have repeatedly guaranteed they’ll get it ready for then. Perhaps you can give them a nudge to let them know they have 3 days to get the outside work done. I’m sensing another let down, and I bet you won’t do anything about it!

  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia I rang pre installs 3 times last week, spending an average of 1hr on the phone, getting no where nobody in preinstalls can tel me what’s going on, they just promise to get someone to call me. That call never happens

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

    @virginmedia Hi - so the fault that is still ongoing, 24 hours+ now, and the fault line said would fixed by 11pm last night. Now the fault line says it’s being worked on - and no update for residents….please advise what is going on and an ETA for the fix? Thanks

  • simonnewby
    Simon Newby (@simonnewby) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I do have a reference bit this is exactly the standard (or total lack) of service I have received for the last 4 weeks, hence the open complaint. Not one person from Virgin has contacted me in any way in that time, despite at least weekly promises like this one.

    @virginmedia STILL NO BBC1, why? Plus other issues eg. previous channel’s sound following any change of channel?

  • theGROWcompany
    Rachel Rosser (@theGROWcompany) reported

    @virginmedia Regardless of the actual problem, it seems the company is totally inept. Why was your incoming call message not working, why was the on hold musac playing the same one track for an hour. Why did it take so many hours for any public announcement?

  • DavePea15343212
    Dave Pearce (@DavePea15343212) reported

    @virginmedia I am in desperate need of help, my tv isn’t working properly, the phone line I been given tells me it’s not available. Once I got through giving it my account number it doesn’t recognise my account number. It’s turning into nightmare. Can you help

    10+ years as @virginmedia customer and bill increase of £100 a month!! Live webchat initiated and absolutely not bothered so cancellation in progress!! Anyone know any good broadband/TV suppliers?

  • Daveytmartin
    Davey Lad (@Daveytmartin) reported

    @Craighale4 @ArmchairAdml @virginmedia Call them and say you don't want the phone line anymore when your contract is up. They will offer you a deal. Just done it went down from £88 to £48 with Netflix!

    I’ve had zero TV signal since before lunchtime @virginmedia and was wondering if you’re going to actually sort it out and as a gesture of good faith knock money off this months bill
