    @virginmedia @WaynesWorld20_ How many areas have this 'intermittent' loss of service? O have it in DY6 too.

  • Stephen12857059
    Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Nobody has called me and the WhatsApp chat is very frustrating and not dealing with the issue. This is very simple, I was sent contract paperwork with an agreed monthly fee of £86.75. Why have I paid two months of excessively higher payments. I should have left VM

  • HJMKent
    Howard Martin 🇺🇦🇪🇺 (@HJMKent) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @virginmedia You have just repeated, word for word, the last tweet you sent me, to which I replied! Pointless trying to have any conversation with @virginmedia because it just goes round in circles! The most appalling customer services in UK in my experience! No more tweets from you, please!

  • ReissOmari
    Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    Mad that I pay £71 a month for 350mbps for @virginmedia Broadband for them to only supply me with 40mbps, internet is barely moving, can’t even load basic web pages on my MacBook or phone. Problems in the Birmingham area?

  • tarun65170952
    tarun (@tarun65170952) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Im getting slow speeds on my broadband. My package is volt and which should be 250mbs im getting less that half of that. Please ask your team to look into this

    @virginmedia what is going on B31 5 still without Broadband & TV from 11am and now being told fix is 12pm tomorrow. I have been unable to work all day & now problem is going in to tomorrow. This is unacceptable & I hope refunds for loss of service will be applied to all accounts.

    @virginmedia how am I supposed to book an engineer? There are issues with the quick start installation I have and need an engineer to set it up for me

    derek(🕖❤️‍🔥samurai🇨🇳) (@Dereklad) reported from Birmingham, England

    Virgin media. Your internet broadband is down,we hope to have it fixed by 10pm.😣 Modern warfare 2 campaign day. And no internet.😢

  • Stephen12857059
    Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England

    Once again the Internet Orovider that claims to be the best @virginmedia, has an outage. I bet all my savings there would be significant kick back if the directors didn’t get paid, because the Lady dealing with their account cannot get online. Time has come for change #cancelVM

  • stumccullagh
    Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I’m going to but I know I won’t get anywhere anyway the customer never gets anywhere

  • SusieWJr
    Susan Johnson (@SusieWJr) reported from Swindon, England

    @virginmedia @ste1984r But YOU say 'intermittent' loss when it isn't. It's FULL loss of service. And to only compensate after 2 days is crazy.

  • redron1975
    Ronnie Harris (@redron1975) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia guess what ********* your system is down again. Useless pricks.

  • ReissOmari
    Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Think we need to call an engineer out anyways, before the outage I was only getting 600mbps max when my package is the 1Gig.

    @Benleo @virginmedia They gave me a CCJ because they failed to action my notice and I complained, so they ignored the complaint in and pursued me for the month although had a PAC . I refused to pay it the never wrote to me. They just put a CCJ on me. @virginmedia WORST INTERNET COMPANY IN BRITAIN..

  • xxxxnickyxxxxxx
    Nicola Hughes (@xxxxnickyxxxxxx) reported

    @virginmedia please advise what is going on with the intermittent broadband in the Evesham area. It is making WFH really difficult and your service checker states you are looking it to it, it improves and then the same thing happens and I am again advised the same thing

  • CanazUK

    @Benleo @virginmedia Virgin Active gym were the worst gym I've ever dealt with. Avoid!

  • glenn_coin
    Glenn Edwards ⚽️🥊🦮 🇬🇧 (@glenn_coin) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia It’s the only option I have that doesn’t use Openreach lines, which are crap. They were terrible when they were NTL as well, seems like nothing has changed.

  • rl1602
    Richard Loach (@rl1602) reported from Gedling District, England

    @Benleo @virginmedia They ruined my Christmas in 2023. Whole day on phone sorting issues with father in laws broadband then 2 site visits ending up with me throwing my vape at TV and a bill for £1000. Horrendous company

    Martin Harrison (@MartHarrison) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Yeah…the internet speed was great but the rest was totally awful based on my only experience with them…when asked I tell folk to avoid them👍

  • jamiezerofour
    jamiezerofour (@jamiezerofour) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Serious point - I have never ever ever considered virgin media because, for at least 20 years - they have had the most appalling customer services reputation.
