    @virginmedia My contract has expired and I’m wondering what options are available if I decide to sign a new one. Feels like it’d be easier to leave, tbh. I’m also moving house so wanted to discuss moving service to new address. I appreciate you’re busy, but it’s an absolute nightmare.

    @virginmedia Well it finally happened if you are not a online customer with virgin mobile and what shop at a outlet you are classed as the unwashed and not welcome anymore as a customer

  • DPhilipJones Daniel Jones (@DPhilipJones) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Me: “I’m going to have to cancel the contract as the landlord doesn’t want me to install the fibre optic broadband anymore” @virginmedia: “Maybe you should just buy the apartment, it’s not very expensive or anything” Confirmed. Virgin Media is Tory.

  • piggypics Les Pigg (@piggypics) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia So we are not just going to write it off as a bad job. Plus my mam finds it hard to understand the persons at the other end of the phone and why they ask for her bank details all we asked was to post out her password for her mobile account.

  • piggypics Les Pigg (@piggypics) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia Yes but the number on the letter to text to just comes back fail to send. Then I rang 789 for my mam and this person had her in tears also, so we have give up.

  • JJohnsonJourno Jack Johnson (@JJohnsonJourno) reported from Walker Gate, England

    Any one have a resolution for no WiFi connection? @virginmedia

  • MartinMuir8 Mirgin Vedia (@MartinMuir8) reported

    @Simmy41 @virginmedia Morning. We ran a diagnostic check on the box registered at the address & found some, outlandish content. We think there is a software issue due to the ‘one where she’s also playing the flute, during’. We will attempt to mend the problem, remotely…if u could also seek help?

  • welshmoneyblog Side Hustle King (@welshmoneyblog) reported

    @virginmedia Yes and you are trying to charge me an additional £25 to help sort things out. Not going to happen. So whenever there is a fault on the line or with broadband that isn’t the customers fault, you have the nerve to try charge us £25 per visit. What a muppet company! Cancel time

  • Trishy_ONeill Trish O’Neill (@Trishy_ONeill) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been on to the team and logged the query. As per my original tweet the issue was logged and no response. The hold time for customer service is ridiculous and then no follow up. Will be moving my business if not resolved this week. Going on 3 weeks now

  • welshmoneyblog Side Hustle King (@welshmoneyblog) reported

    @virginmedia I will be reviewing your scam my company and putting it all over my blog coz the public needs to know all about Virgin media and they crappy services and rude call centre staff and technician call out scams

  • ziggys_revenge zig (@ziggys_revenge) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah my online account, I've been unable to set up the account to sign in as the email is associated with an old account.

  • gillatkinson36 Gill Atkinson (@gillatkinson36) reported

    Did virgin media have Internet problems yesterday & all evening ? Plymouth area...

  • Afxguru Tuhin Dasgupta 💙 (@Afxguru) reported

    @virginmedia Yes but yesterday was really up and down all day. I've reset the router multiple times. Let's see how this morning goes.

  • fluvialheather Heather Kerr (she/her) (@fluvialheather) reported

    @virginmedia Being told it is not valid? Despite claiming the quote within 7 days? So you think this is acceptable service, would you be okay with this? I think not. (2/2)

  • Roger_Wilco93 DPG (@Roger_Wilco93) reported

    @virginmedia No issues, according to that.

  • miss_e_elliott Mrs G (@miss_e_elliott) reported

    @virginmedia Ours has been down for 6 working days already so I want confirmation this will happen
