@virginmedia There seems to be a network problem. The box had a green light flashing. Our phones & iPads are connect but the sky boxes don’t seem to be. Can I DM you please

Cancelled @virginmedia Starplayz subscription as they have no channel number and no app to search for programmes! Crazy and call centre staff don’t understand why this is a problem. Don’t waste £5 a month.

@RevDubbleD @virginmedia Absolutely appalling service today. The attitude of the people I dealt with was staggering for a customer centric organisation.

@virginmedia No known issues. It’s only wireless speeds. There is no excuse for this, it happens to me almost everyday. I would like to discuss it with someone as I tried at the weekend and was completely fobbed off by your service team. I pay nearly £50 a month and often have to use my 4G

@virginmedia Tomorrow. This has been going on for over two weeks intermittent but the way I was treated was not the way to treat a loyal customer

@danielpwood1 @virginmedia I don’t have a regional accent so am normally easily understood, I’m also very patient, enjoy speaking to the Indian guys about cricket, but tonight it was unprofessional and my near thirty years service to VM in all it’s guises rendered irrelevant

@virginmedia £20 a month 'existing customer' penalty on the best you can offer me Vs the best new customer deal is just too much, afraid that's a cancellation from a 10 years loyal customer. £240 is a lot of money!

@virginmedia I have received from you an incomplete text message regarding changes to Virgin Media Project and Mobile Rescue Tech support, as from 31 August, but does not say what. What are these changes

@virginmedia That's all well and good but you have insisted we update our box or it will not work, your website link is not working, text service and chat not responding and your telephone advisor insists I buy a new service whilst your letter states its free! Not paying more for less!!

@virginmedia you write stating have to upgrade to free tivo box & I must contact you 2 arrange. Web site doesn't work, no answer online chat, no answer on text and phone advisor tries to sell me an upgrade. Then email advising price rise in inbox. - total joke!!!

@virginmedia It’s difficult to articulate in a tweet but speaking to someone in an offshore contact centre who has a very poor grasp of English is extremely frustrating. There is no malice in this, it’s just a statement of fact, I couldn’t make myself understood, it took 4 calls and 75 mins.

@virginmedia I was speaking with an agent an hour ago due to an issues with WiFi. They said they’d 100% ring me back in 30 mins as we did a hard reset of the booster. It’s been another 30 mins since then and no one has called. #notmyday

@lisadunn1978 @virginmedia I have just had hell on and demanded to speak to a manager. At first I was told there was no issue in our area and it was the router then the manager has told me that there is a problem in our area

Dear @virginmedia Me again, I am still trying to cancel my contract but you are still hiding. You can assume my contact is cancelled, I am out of the lock-in period and I've cancelled my direct debit. I will leave your box on the step of you want it. Have a good onward day

@virginmedia It is not an issue showing on your service page, usually I don't have an issue with the WiFi but as of the last 10~ days I've had issues with it at night. I've even upgraded and still no joy

Does anyone know how to get hold of Virgin Media customer support? Our home TV and broadband not working and customer support is - well, sub-optimal. #virginmedia

@virginmedia Tried everything, one thinks because so many people are having the same issue, the problem is at your end. At the end of the day we’re paying you for a service that is not being provided..

@virginmedia Is there anything that will be done from this, I know that when there is an internet outage we were promised unlimited data for our mobiles to rectify this. As this is your issue can you guarantee this will be resolved?

@virginmedia Hi, it has been an absolute joke, we have been without WiFi for over a day now with no support, we have been waiting for a reply from the internet support but also has been over 24 hours without a response! We have to work tomorrow from home so we will have to hotspot our data!
