    @virginmedia WHY IS YOUR WIFI THE ABSOLUTE WORST WIFI IN THE WORLD!!!! Anymore than 5 metres away and it disconnects - getting very frustrated

  • dougmorton Doug (@dougmorton) reported from Ealing, England

    Annoys me way more than it should that Virgin... sorry, LNER call their class 800s “Azumas” and the media are treating them as something new, when class 800s have been in operation on the GWML since 2017, just without a stupid brand name.

  • Nikhil_Saglani Nikhil Saglani (@Nikhil_Saglani) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Be nice to get an answer on the phone as to why I’ve been charged £60 for leaving despite you guys not being able to service our new house - and telling us we’d face no leaving fee. Sat on hold three times for 30+ minutes. Great service!

  • REDROBB1967 ROB FARACE (@REDROBB1967) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Never spoke to someone it was a chatbot. So no real confidence that tomorrow will be different. Disappointing to see it has to happen twice before you look at maybe seeing if you can help. Would be nice to know someone was looking into it now so it was guaranteed for tomorrow.

  • TobiWanDOTA Toby Dawson (@TobiWanDOTA) reported from Camden Town, England

    Get a message from @virginmedia telling me they are raising my monthly cost to pay so they can offer a better service.....internet is down once again... Finally going to look for ANY other options cause I have had enough!!!

  • elifnur Elif Nur Karlidag (@elifnur) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia 5. Not only I am upset and surprised of the problem, I also feel abused by your representative in the call center.

  • trickyvondickie Tricky (@trickyvondickie) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia trying your text service now

  • _Rafi93 Rafi (@_Rafi93) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia No change after rebooting both boxes (v6/hub). Nothing on the service status page. I’ve been through all of this before and was explicitly told if it happened again the cables would have to be re fitted

  • elifnur Elif Nur Karlidag (@elifnur) reported from Camden Town, England

  • CraigFamilyBlog Hayley & Gavin (@CraigFamilyBlog) reported from St Albans, England

    Gav and I have had no mobile phone service for 3 days, but I have no service to call @virginmedia to let them know! It happens far too regularly. Just spent the morning searching for a new deal. @O2 looks like the best so far!

  • JessLloydWright Jessica Lloyd-Wright (@JessLloydWright) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve tried that lots of times but it says no known issues in the area. We’ve tried rebooting and switching on/off loads of times too. It’s getting ridiculous. Could someone please come back with a reply on what is directly happening with tv/internet in the SW18 area

  • Freddie_Owusu77 Freddie AFC Owusu (@Freddie_Owusu77) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia @VirginMediaCorp @VMDotCom Virgin are liars and thieves they misinformed me, stole my money then after 20min waiting to get through to customer service they drop the phone on you. Do not go to virgin they are horrible

  • mgrazia_baf sbruffoncella #antifa🇮🇹🇪🇺🇬🇧🌋 (@mgrazia_baf) reported from London, England

    In a world that runs on the net if you are a @virginmedia customer you have to wait 4 days for an engineer to fix a modem, installed only in November 2018. IT’S NOT A JOKE!!! Thank you for letting me loose a day of work and 3 days worth of studying. #virginbroadband

  • Margare7a Margareta Dovgal (@Margare7a) reported from Hammersmith, England

    Hey @virginmedia - I was charged £15 on July 19 for Virgin Media WiFi on the London Underground. But the pass isn't showing on my account. I'm not a Virgin customer, so go in circles on the menu when I call customer service. Please help!

  • elifnur Elif Nur Karlidag (@elifnur) reported from Camden Town, England

    Trying to stream... currently having issues with framerate drops due to my bitrate dropping hard... I'm blaming @virginmedia lol

  • Mike_E_Neale Mike Neale (@Mike_E_Neale) reported

    @virginmedia The problem is due to this error, we now have to pay to travel to an office to work, when we usually wouldn't - we also have spent more on our data plans. All of this expense is due to the error of the person I spoke to on 11th August.

    Well, after my dreadful experience with Virginmedia and deciding to move to @SkyUK - it seems they are every bit as bad.Say they'll do something when taking your money, do something different once they've got it.

    @O2 hi, I've become an o2 customer through my virgin media account, and someone has not put my email in correctly so my username to sign in isn't correct. Can you help? Thanks x

  • martynbez Martyn Beswick (@martynbez) reported

    @virginmedia 2 days ago. As you can see things have not improved. I did have a text on the 16th Aug saying work was being done in my area. Could this have caused an issue?
