  @virginmedia Well that was a pointless exercise reaching out to yourselves. Just proves once again what a load of rubbish Virgin is…. #virginmedia #garbage #dailymirror

  @virginmedia You’s really do make it almost impossible to cancel. I’ve called 5 times over 3 days. Either don’t get transferred or get cut off. Looks like I’ll try by writing a letter….

  @virginmedia Ridiculous service from your team in Manilla. Both Joy & Brian telling me I wasn't able to pass security because I couldn't tell them my next bill date as the package/contract is ended even after telling them my normal date and all other DP information

  Steph. (@stephwales_) reported 15 minutes ago from Gateshead, England

  LadyDi (@didixon74) reported 28 minutes ago from Blyth, England

  @virginmedia In October agreed new contract, came to install last week got new router and have since cancelled the packages that was agreed. I am now been charged more and getting less services. Tried to resolve last week over the phone & not no further forward so just want to cancel now.

• 
  Steph. (@stephwales_) reported 29 minutes ago from Gateshead, England

  @virginmedia 2 technicians over a week period, 4 visits. TV back on but Internet on and off now. Will be ringing Sky tomorrow and also your cancellation team. Clearly this is my service from now on.

  Sarah (@Rainbowztwit) reported 32 minutes ago from Whitley Bay, England

  .@virginmedia Broadband down - phone line states because of 'improvements'- not expected back until 3pm. Why was there no notice so I could arrange to work from alternate location? How do I get warning in future?

  You lot need to sort yourselves out, Internet going down around midnight for the past few days yet you charge the earth @virginmedia

  Sam (@purplelime) reported 40 minutes ago from South Shields, England

  @virginmedia I’m signed in but I see no option to test the landline. I clicked on ‘fix landline’ but that just sent me back to the main menu page.

  Keith Dawson (@KeithRwc) reported 42 minutes ago from Washington, England

  Looks like @virginmedia are again trying to take Netflix payment that should already be included in my Volt. This is disgusting behaviour having already spoke to them previously!! Anyone else having similar issues?

  @virginmedia can you help with my phone services not currently working

  Real Gaz on a proper bike #fbpe (@gazza_d) reported 53 minutes ago from South Shields, England

  @_MMaritima @virginmedia Wired speed test would be to isolate between a wireless problem or the connection in. Router might be shielded which would kill signal. Make sure other electronics aren't too close. I can ruin my wireless if I put router on top of my TiVo box

• 
  Phil Robinson (@Ne31phil) reported 54 minutes ago from Hebburn, England

  @virginmedia please advise Reduced mobile signal in the NE31 area. The signals were fine until a couple of months ago. previously had 4g I now mainly get E or sometimes 3G this is an issue due to my elderly mother-in-law being in hospital and now very poor signal in their home

  **** off Virgin Media, useless bollocks

• 
  Hilly Marshall (@hylt64) reported 59 minutes ago from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

  @virginmedia The issue is I’m trying to cancel my services but I see how you keep customers as nobody will answer the phone to do this hence the reason nobody can leave I’ve now been on hold 1hr 14mins which is totally unacceptable

  Jessica Simpson 😺🐶🐾 (@Jess_Simpson645) reported 7 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I haven’t sent you a DM. I managed to speak to a human being at Virginmedia and the issue with my broadband and TV services finally got resolved. Your poor service has put me through hell, not being able to deal with my finances with my bank accounts etc. I cannot wait to move elsewhere once I get to the end of my current contract with you. 😡

  Same issue time and time again, thanks @virginmedia

• 
  Simon Vargeson (@Si_Vargeson) reported 9 minutes ago

  @virginmedia is it usual practice to delay installations without communicating to your new customers? You’ve currently missed 2 instal dates and no comms to let me know to avoid waiting at home for your arrival…. Customer service seem to be unable to provide any detail too😡

• 
  Phoenix Rahman (@Phoenixrahman) reported 13 minutes ago

  @virginmedia @RA0307J No companies know how to treat loyal customers anymore. Was with VM for over 20+ years. They acknowledged that but they did not try to keep us. Glad I moved away from them. Companies are all about greed now

  Steve Kelly (@kellyokid) reported 20 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Hi, would appreciate some contact from you! Apparently I’m now out of contract and my price per month has doubled, no communication from you and I’ve only found out because one of my boxes has decided not to work as a result of broadband connection issues! Brilliant!
