    @virginmedia will lose my money as a loyal customer of 20 years standing, by slapping a 120% rise on my next contract due to start in November! Who else has seen such a massive percentage rise?

    @virginmedia @LutzSchueler please help me here i am an O2 monthly paying customer , I’ve had a virgin email address for over 23 years and they just closed it no notice , or warnings and your team hides behind a policy that didn’t exist when i first got my virgin email address

    @virginmedia No Internet for 48 hrs and can't work, will you be crediting customers for lack of service?

  • thefitebegins
    jrd1982 (@thefitebegins) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia Yet again Virgin Media is down and yes I have tried the checker. Why are services with VM constantly going down across the UK?

  • IstvanOFatyol
    Oliver Fatyol (@IstvanOFatyol) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia It is incredible, what you're doing is just pushing the date on your service page to one week to another. We don't have Internet for two months now! What are your engineers doing? I am going to cancel your contract and I will go with an better provider. @virginmedia #virginmedia

  • crimimel
    Mel B (@crimimel) reported from Welwyn Garden City, England

    @virginmedia Hope we’re getting a refund for lack of service as daughter is trying to write her 10,000 word dissertation but very difficult to do without internet. Should not advertise deals to new customers if you don’t bother sorting out the network issues. Cancelling

    Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for trying. Three Exec Dept people in the last 10 days promised to call me back after initial calls - none have. I have put it all in an e-mail against what I believe is my reference number. I want the mobile internet service you've arranged to work.

  • gashead
    Alistair 🏴‍☠️ Burns (@gashead) reported from Hatfield, England

    Used to tell my colleagues on @virginmedia to switch to @BT to overcome reliability issues. Moved house and little choice to pick Virgin. No internet or TV for 7 days, fix due by 1pm today. Queried at 1.30pm and 6.30pm, assured it would be today, told to relax. Frankie says BS.

    @virginmedia Last time, our wifi was down for over a week. I spoke to an agent on the phone who was utterly useless. You never offer any solutions. I’m starting to think that the only way for you to take any action is if I cancel my DD.

  • tor_a
    victoria martin (@tor_a) reported from Barnet, England

    @elisjames @virginmedia Used to have problems in Streatham with Virgin before we change provider. Needed a new router last time.

    @virginmedia Yes, it’s showing issues but we are still being treated like this is a new issue with no history. 😩

  • StrummerJonny
    Jonny Paul (@StrummerJonny) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia is there any point, why not just give up? #virginbroadband down again, x4/2 days and at least once a month you are guaranteed #broadband #outage

    @virginmedia Is service in London W13 working?

  • stephen_j_moran
    Stephen Moran (@stephen_j_moran) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    And another day has gone by with no landline service from #virginmedia in this part of Harrow HA1 and still the same recorded message saying they've found the problem and are working on it. @virginmedia

  • vijayjois
    Vijay Jois (@vijayjois) reported from Mill Hill East, England

    @virginmedia what is the problem with #broadband this morning?

  • DrewSalisbury5
    Drew Salisbury (@DrewSalisbury5) reported from Barnet, England

    [1] @virginmedia I have not had access to WiFi for a couple of days now. I have checked the cables, rebooted the Hub and run the final diagnostic tests several times. Still nothing. On the one hand, your system tells me that there is a wider broadband issue in the area and […]

    Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Finally sent letter on 28 September and on checking my account realised you’ve got wrong email address attached to complaint file. Funnily enough you have correct email address for sending bills. 3/

  • paulstevenlewis
    Paul Lewis (@paulstevenlewis) reported from Mill Hill East, England

    @virginmedia So you cancel the service months if not years before the 4G replacement is a really extensive alternative, while increasing your prices and telling customers “sorry, but that’s tough”. I understand your team is just at the sharp end dealing with flack, but that’s really bad of VM

    @virginmedia I am loosing signal intermittently. Not great!

  • spandya1

    I’m getting starlink installed, sick of Virgin media Any followers have it and can you give me any good, bad , indifferent feedback. Not bothered about the cost….. …..if it’s good it good 🤝

  • PaulOBrienKil
    Paul O'Brien (@PaulOBrienKil) reported

    @VMSportIE I strongly urge anyone thinking of subscribing to @virginmedia to NOT do it. Took over a hour to get through to customer service & they still won't fix their mistake. Shambles of an organisation.

  • ExpanseCon
    Expanse Consulting Ltd (@ExpanseCon) reported

    @MikeScheider_ Not a vodafone issue. Looks like a core switch failure, optical cross-connect fault or other fault inside one of the central carrier-neutral hubs. It has dropped interconnection across multiple fixed ISPs (Virgin Media, Eir, Siro, NBI) simultaneously.

  • Connorgower3
    Connor gower (@Connorgower3) reported

    I have had issues with my broadband for the last 48 hours so far where it keeps being intermittent it's not the first time it's happened and pushing me closer to leaving @virginmedia

  • stephenm68
    Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported

    Day 35 of absolutely no services from @virginmedia and no useful information about when/if the outage in our area will ever get fixed. Let’s hope that @guardian Consumer Champions will look into this - I’ve just written to them. @Ofcom

    @virginmedia Hello.... The Sky Sports News channel on the Sky Sports app is lagging and the audio keeps cutting out... I've contacted Sky, they told me to contact you as the account is a Virgin Media... Can you help?

  • Pekalton
    Pekalton (@Pekalton) reported

    @ConorPDunne I agree Connor. It’s time for a complete change of direction for RTÉ. I’ve lost interest in the LLS and RoT. I get RoT brings tourism to Kerry but it’s time for a change. RTÉ is still living in the times gone past. What exactly are we paying TV licence for? Virgin Media is as bad
