    @NigelJTurner @virginmedia Same for me, I can cancel or change my package by the 28th of march then get a 19% increase on my new package on the 1st of April. Only had my contract 5 months.being **** Turpind here!!!

  • les_murray71 Lesley Murray (@les_murray71) reported from Wallasey, England

    @MarkKav15119614 @virginmedia Well my bills ain't getting paid today so will get charges, anything i try to do on apps / chrome not working, twitter on and off

  • 111O1O1O11O lloyd #utft (@111O1O1O11O) reported from Wallasey, England

    @virginmedia I only worked as a network Ops mgr for nearly 10 years, so I guess I wouldn't understand network issues and connectivity, really. Or service level agreements. Or teaching my grandmother how to suck eggs.

  • BLTwitchy Berni Turner 🖤🌹 (@BLTwitchy) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia No I’m not an idiot it was during covid I’ll go back and find it . The chief execs office rang me personally as I’m disabled

  • lurkinhead Martin Travis (@lurkinhead) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @les_murray71 @virginmedia Still saying 12.05 on the app Lesley .... have they put that new estimated fix time out elsewhere? 😱

  • jmcloughlin Jamie McLoughlin (@jmcloughlin) reported from Liverpool, England

    Anyone having @virginmedia issues in Liverpool area? Our TV has been showing static for the past half hour.

  • les_murray71 Lesley Murray (@les_murray71) reported from Wallasey, England

    @virginmedia Yes got the update thanks but not helpful receiving a text to say issue resolved, service has been off for 14 hours now, any background to reason why? Its a massive area to be out with no explanation

  • lurkinhead Martin Travis (@lurkinhead) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia Okay, but with respect, the problem is your call centre say different stuff every time, which inevitably bears no resemblance to reality. Later, VM deny those conversations ever took place and there is no written evidence to back up what was agreed. That's what I am after here?

  • laineypb2109 Elaine Brown (@laineypb2109) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia 15% increase, don't think so mate. I'll be in touch via phone shortly with a cancellation notice. So much for long serving customer loyalty

  • TheWiganParky Laser Lux, Wigan. (@TheWiganParky) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia If my bill went down with my speed, I wouldn't mind.

  • 111O1O1O11O lloyd #utft (@111O1O1O11O) reported from Wallasey, England

    No service in CH44 for 2 days last week, back on for 2, then off again today. No text updates but service status says a fix by 20.00. Won't happen though will it? @virginmedia

  • lurkinhead Martin Travis (@lurkinhead) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia There's no point raising a complaint is there, as you won't comprnsate? Other reputable oroviders offer a back-up 4 or 5g device to kick in if their main broadband goes down, to keep the service running. Not VM though - it's just all really poor customer service innit?

  • timmycooke Tim Cooke 🇺🇦 (@timmycooke) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Both wired and wireless. We've had 8 engineers out, a rewire, new hub and still endless drop outs. Was told finally it was an upload issue from the amp that supplied the box on the street. But still we're having issues. The 150 number is joke, make it simple!!!

  • lurkinhead Martin Travis (@lurkinhead) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @BlaggerBly @virginmedia Seems to be Wirral wide at least, and I think Liverpool is affected too. VM should be massively compensating their affected customers for this, but they hide behind their terms and conditions where they only deem it reasonable to compensate if the outage last more than 3 days!

  • les_murray71 Lesley Murray (@les_murray71) reported from Wallasey, England

    @virginmedia @joshyw0shy Its the whole of the Wirral by the sound of it, no statement from Virgin, just telling hundreds of customers to check for an outage, only have to look at their twitter to see how many of us have been told the same thing

  • cambo691 Cambo (@cambo691) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @les_murray71 @virginmedia This and their woeful customer service is why we binned them off mate

  • andrewjmcgill Andy McGill (@andrewjmcgill) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia I have been without broadband all day, a day after you sent me a letter about price increases, an increase for what, even poorer service!!!!

  • TheWiganParky Laser Lux, Wigan. (@TheWiganParky) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia It says there's no issues at the moment, but I'm only getting 13mbps.

  • les_murray71 Lesley Murray (@les_murray71) reported from Wallasey, England

    @virginmedia Yes got the update thanks, but not helpful receiving texts to say issue resolved, services been off for 14 hours now, any background to the issue?

  • Eddie_Vermeer Eddie Vermeer (@Eddie_Vermeer) reported

    @virginmedia I've spoken to them today. 150 doesn't work without a line. I asked if a data connection could be provided, as I'm running out, until the service is restored. Or if I buy data for the family, if we can claim that back.

  • Hiraa_kay Hira_kay (@Hiraa_kay) reported

    @virginmedia so it's a complete shame that virgin has an outage in my area for more than 12 hours now and it is supposed to go on for another 3 days so practically I have to use my data allowance which is with virgin as well and there is no compensation. Now I will run out of

  • Garethiacobucci Gareth Iacobucci (@Garethiacobucci) reported

    @virginmedia I cancelled our service over the phone this evening and was assured I would get an email to confirm cancellation. I’m yet to receive this, please can you confirm that this has been done. The customer service I have received throughout has been appalling.

  • Corney77 Paul Corney (@Corney77) reported from Choppington, England

    @virginmedia disgusting customer service once again. No manage to take a call to help fix another problem with our service. Can someone please contact me to help

  • greenwhitehoops paul (@greenwhitehoops) reported

    @virginmedia 1/ No it is additional charges John, because I was not afforded the opportunity to cancel prior to my receiving a letter today.

  • quikstu Quikstu (@quikstu) reported

    Very poor experience with @virginmedia earlier on trying to negotiate a new contract. On hold for most of the 49min call, then cut off whilst waiting over 5mins for advisor to get back to me. Not acceptable. Been a customer for nearly 10yrs.

  • Hiraa_kay Hira_kay (@Hiraa_kay) reported

    @virginmedia imagine when you have to work from home and your WiFi is not working AGAIN. This is like a fortnightly problem with virgin while my bill doesn't seem to go down

  • mfrayard M Frayard 💙 (@mfrayard) reported

    For your own sanity, do not take up a contract with #VirginMedia. You will bitterly regret it. They behave like muggers, will take your hard earned cash and give you many troubles in return. @virginmedia, your customer service is the worst anyone unlucky enough to need can face.

  • MrSHLMS Mr Holmes (@MrSHLMS) reported

    @virginmedia Should I expect some sort of confirmation that my services have been cancelled after speaking on the telephone? Just with it being 14 days and I still have the service.

  • jonah20200 Paul Jones (@jonah20200) reported

    @virginmedia any chance of providing the service I pay for. WV12 been off all day and according to your outage checker all is fine. I beg to differ. Time to try another provider I think l.
