    @virginmedia I'd just like to cancel! Nothing personal! But stumbling blocks are being put up and it is tiresome.

    Virgin WiFi is up and down all the time, but now it's really down and not working. Can't even turn on my Alexa smart lights so stuck in the dark and soon landlines will be WiFi so that won't work either. @virginmedia #noservice

  • MannyMontanaro
    Manny Montanaro (@MannyMontanaro) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia I won’t hold my breath fir that to happen. By the way, will @virginmedia still send me an invoice even though I’ve had no TV and ultra slow #broadband for a week? I think I already know the answer to that 🤔👎🏼

  • Mrspdyer
    Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia No, I’m trying to find out the status of my complaint received by Virgin on 30 September. I’ve had zero communication or acknowledgment of it.

    @virginmedia I’ve been a customer for almost 27 yrs with you guys - was being offered an upgrade to broadband…

  • LinkedinMac
    Mac Laubscher (@LinkedinMac) reported from Bushey Heath, England

    @virginmedia any idea why services are down across the board in WD23 postcode area?

  • ladykittymckat
    LadyKitty McKatfacelady (@ladykittymckat) reported from Datchworth, England

    @virginmedia @VirginMediaCC Yes, since the day we signed with Virgin we’ve had our broadband drop out intermittently, I’ve been years trying to rectify it. When it works it’s brilliant, but we seem to go two weeks of good service and a month of intermittent! Call centre said they’ve been aware since June!

  • nan2thou
    PAT WEBB (@nan2thou) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia Not now there isn’t. But there was no service at 8am until 10.30. T happens on a regular basis but it doesn’t stop the price going up.

  • brobbo55
    robbo (@brobbo55) reported from St Albans, England

    @virginmedia Is anyone actually reading my tweets… I’ve called 10+ times and no one seems able to help!? Apparently no one here can either…

    @BrianBr41198151 There service has become appalling on the phone today 98mins then they cut me off no resolution to the problem been with em over 25yrs Virgin Media's customer service is non existent think twice before you sign up.

  • Mrspdyer
    Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Also raised it in web complaint form which didn’t work. Web complaint form hasn’t worked for 2 months. Then sent letter and still no response. 2/

  • 1SLToo
    Andy (@1SLToo) reported from Rickmansworth, England

    Merry Christmas to all at @virginmedia who have left all of us in WD3 area with no TV or Internet for over a week (predicted) and probably longer over the entire festive period, moving to sky in the new year due to your continuing rubbish service and customer service

  • mjdes
    Mike Desborough (@mjdes) reported from Stevenage District, England

    @virginmedia any chance of a useful update on service in SG1. Got no internet or TV. Status hasn’t been updated yet apparently an engineer has been working on it for over an Hour.

  • Mrspdyer
    Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Of course I have. My email is correct on online account. I get email bills correctly. But my complaint file has an extra character to email address and so I’ve never received acknowledgment of my complaint.

  • angelstorm13
    Ella A Cutler (@angelstorm13) reported from Welwyn Hatfield, England

    Yet again dispicable lack of customer service from #virginmedia for the 7+ hr outage. Not even one tweet. Your customer service dept needs sacking! How can you run a company like this and charge us so much! @virginmedia #virginmediadown

    @vmbusiness AGAIN ....LOCKED OUT MY ACCOUNT SINCE 02 WANTED ANOTHER E MAIL ...... I AM 1 OF "THOUSANDS" COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS ISSUE ! BIGGEST MESS UP SINCE THE 02 MERGE. IF CUSTOMERS HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH 02 IE A SIM OR PHONE WHY DO PEOPLE NEED A BACK UP E MAIL FOR 02 ?

  • lakecitygirl
    The Original What's Going On (@lakecitygirl) reported

    On Trustpilot, @Virgin Mobile Canada has over 2,000 reviews (≈2,089) with a very low TrustScore around 1.3–1.5 out of 5, and about 90%+ of reviewers give 1 star as well as over 250 complaints with the BBB. @virginmedia you've got a serious problem.

  • simmo1024
    Stanley Percival Simmonds (@simmo1024) reported

    @Prosperity_Inst This is a question for parents, and parents should have the ability to enforce their decision. See Virgin Media, they have the ability to block social media. Government needs to force all ISPs, especially phone service providers, do provide the same, and turn it on by default. The bill-payer (e.g. the parents) then get to choose which sites to permit. What is not required is digital ID for everyone.

    Addy (@iadnan9) reported

    @virginmedia @HawtinStewart Reported an issue 2 months ago and only just received a response. The advice given was unhelpful, careless, and frankly unprofessional. The issue is still ongoing with Now being told it could take another 28 days for a follow-up. Completely unacceptable and a waste of time.

  • LessGrumpy
    GrumpyByName 🇮🇱 (@LessGrumpy) reported

    @IanSlaterPhoto1 @BrydonN2 Absurd. One of the reasons I’ve never left virgin media is that they were the only fibre to the door operator round here till recently.
