    @SGiangregorio @virginmedia Terrible for the money they charge people. No doubt they’ll be happy enough increase your bill though at the end of the year

    @virginmedia do you care to give an update regarding services being down in the WF1 area of Wakefield? You estimate keeps changing which is becoming really annoying!! Literally 1000s of households without an Internet connection. #wakefield #poorservice

    @virginmedia Well I don't know if the problem has been restored at virgins end I received help and advice from an outside source who showed show me how to work around the problem with manual DNS entries. But for me, working now. Thanks.

    Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported from Wakefield, England

    @vmbusiness strike yet again!😠 Not only are they charging me £7/month for 4G backup that doesn't work, they are now charging me £4 for paper bills that I never asked for. Oh, and still say I owe them money despite me overpaying due a to a red letter that they took by DD later

  • AndyHiggs1
    Porrohman (@AndyHiggs1) reported from Huddersfield, England

    @sky_support We have the full Sky Sports package on our Virgin Media box. How much would the cost come down by us getting rid of the F1 channel as I prefer watching paint dry. If it's worth it the golf one could go the same way as I only watch the football and cricket ? Ta

    @vmbusiness just wanted to ask how much you value customer service? I’ve just had a phone call from your operative with shocking customer service.

    Beau (@fastnodeceo) reported from Leeds, England

    @ladyjaney75 @WhichUK When Virgin Media install VOIP phone lines I believe they stick some kind of SIM in for if the network is down, when the engineer knows it is a vulnerable/elderly user from when I asked previously.

    @virginmedia That checker like my service doesn't work

    @Riz1Rehman @shuhel_miah86 @virginmedia They charge enough through the nose for a rubbish service. Might as well use pigeon post. It would be faster

  • HarlamTK
    Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia I’m trying to resolve an issue with your collections team regarding an incorrect default and because I no longer bank with the same account and do not have those details, they won’t talk to me, yet they are happy to just take money off me without telling me why. It’s disgusting

  • domburch
    Dom Burch ⤴️ (@domburch) reported from Bradford, England

    @virginmedia To cancel. Tried ask contact methods other than writing you a letter so far. Carrier pigeon might be better.

    @virginmedia Nothing! I'd be a very rich lady with all the apologies I've had in the last few 7 days, apologies doesn't get my service back does it?!

    @virginmedia @weyland76 From your picture it is not a Virgin issue it's your device, it's not released the network connection from the mobile connection. Best response is to restart to device then will connect stop blaming Virgin

  • UAVHive
    UAVHive (@UAVHive) reported

    Virgin Media simply do not seem to grasp customer service, I really fear the damage the merger with O2 will do to the service there. Penny pinching over a bereavement is proof of a fundamentally mismanaged customer service.

    @virginmedia why can't you sync your transmission with the terrestrial or Sky service because my neighbour is ruining these games for me. He screams like a banshee on heat 40 seconds "before" we score. #NORENG

  • AlexBass08
    Alex Burton (@AlexBass08) reported

    More issues with @virginmedia. My nan was out of contract and they repeatedly called with "better deals". She wanted to lower her bill but ended up paying more after being sold 500Mb broadband and Sky Cinema. She lives alone. I called back and said it felt like elder abuse. Why?

  • Samet_UK
    Samet (@Samet_UK) reported

    @virginmedia The Wi-Fi hasn’t been working since 1 a.m. It says there’s an outage in the area, but I can’t reach customer service either. There still haven’t been any further updates. There’s no information about when it will be fixed or what’s going on.

    Michael Crick (@MichaelLCrick) reported

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK As I have said here before, Virgin Media treat customers with total contempt. The worst type of British capitalism. Branson must be so ashamed.

    @LessGrumpy @virginmedia Whenever I’ve had issues with Virgin it’s never been a UK call centre I’ve spoken to. Tend to avoid now but just left again after a couple of years of thankfully issue free broadband. Moved to PlusNet which is Openreach rebranded but far cheaper.
