Well, @richardbranson @virginmedia - been a customer since the Telewest days, but the broadband service is almost unusable now. I don’t know what’s going wrong, but you’re going to start losing customers rapidly, if you don’t get this sorted.

@virginmedia disappointed to say the least. Customer for 5 years, out of contract, bill is £120 a month, Phone up to renew and negotiate, no offers. Despite Amazon being a new competitor for sports and the mobile experience being infinitely better with them. Package cancelled.

AWFUL SERVICE. Wrote to @virginmedia about my mobile; no response so rang 789 who cut me off 3 times as they couldn't put me through to that office in Swansea. Direct number online was wrong. On 4th call logged complaint; they to ring me back in 3 days. Not holding my breath.

@virginmedia I need some technical help as my equipment is faulty. Tried all the resets and followed advise but box keeps going into standby. Also not been loading any tv planner or what’s up next for weeks. The box is over 7 years old. Think a technician would be helpful

@virginmedia Nope. I have username already selected to my email address, password filled in on both fields, security question drop down selected and answer given in the field, and date of birth drop downs all selected. There’s nothing else I can select or that hadn’t been filled in now.

@virginmedia Adding a character and then removing that character worked. By pasting the password in, it wasn’t accepting the password regardless. It needed a character to be manually added. I’ve never seen that before on any password fields on any other site, seems like an API issue maybe.

@virginmedia 3rd thing I did after checking cables and rebooting. As I said in my tweet, it says no issues but several people in Coventry are reporting the same issue

(@Bearsito) reported
@DosFox1 We left @virginmedia after our contract because we had so many issues. Once we tried to cancel, they argued with me because I said I could get cheaper access elsewhere and they refused to drop the costs. I’d even prefer talk talk over them (we use Vodafone with no issues!)

It has been weeks now that my Virgin Media internet has been unreliable. Slow speeds, dropping intermittently, all around peak hours. I can't even switch as I have no other providers that offer the same speeds. Frustrating to say the least.

@virginmedia - no internet for 2 days - you advise your working on network - works for 6 hours on third day then stops - you advise it’s my hub - technician booked for 8-12 - 15mins later you text advising technician booked 4-7 - come on guys, it’s not good enough!

(@CompleteGoober) reported
@virginmedia No, I don't have time to post onto a forum. This has been ongoing all month and you're asking me to post it onto a forum. Ridiculous. There was no problem at all, you tampered with something and now it's knackered. Your technical guy said it would be fixed, so why hasn't it been?

@virginmedia As I said before: I don't think so. Why when you supposedly have a Customer Service dept am I the one making all the enquiries? VM email today said they'll look into my complaint within 28 days. I'll probably be with BT before then.
