  @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

  @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

  @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 Have you tried turning it off and back on again? That appears to be your answer to every technical issue.

  @virginmedia I was moving house they said the bill would be different for the first three months, then back to normal, however apparently I agreed to a new contract @ £14 extra per month, I’d only had my previous contract for 6 months so why would I do this, oh and the house move was cancel

  @virginmedia I’ve been hung up on three times this morning by your contact centre! All your willing to do is pass on the “feedback” do you have anyone customer service trained I can speak to ?

  Louise🐦🐝🌵🧀🐌 (@astolante) reported 56 minutes ago from Leeds, England

  And again @virginmedia have taken payment for a service I cancelled and have never actually used. Still can't log on to my account because it apparently doesn't exist.

  Michael Edwards (@MENorthAffinity) reported 57 minutes ago from Leeds, England

  It feels like @virginmedia and @VodafoneUK are having some weird competition to decide who has the most inept and frustrating customer experience competition. No one is perfect but to be this consistently terrible is almost admirable.

  Simon (@HullsGinMan) reported 59 minutes ago from Leeds, England

  @virginmedia is there an issue in LS2 7LY area. It’s never great but .9mb download isn’t very 4G

  @SpadgingtonBear @virginmedia I’m now being told its a fault with my router and there is no area outage, jokers. Saying I need an engineer

  Jonathan Black (@jonblackbsb) reported 3 minutes ago

  I love on a street where it seems over 50% of households use @VMO2Life @virginmedia . That’s quite a lot of £££ per month paid out . But for the best part of a year everyone’s work has been disrupted by poor or no service . Apparently it’s noise emanating from a house 🏠 🤷1/2

  @OgaHans MTN is one of the biggest network operators in Nigeria. EE, Virgin Media O2, Vodafone, and Three are the major network operators in the UK. EE coverage is very good because BT owns and operates it using its existing infrastructure. Most of the smaller network operators are resellers. They bulk-buy wholesale - network minutes, texts, and data at a heavily discounted rate from (like EE, VMO2, or VodafoneThree) and resell it to people. Their coverage isn't good because they are limited. They are only competitive on price, not on coverage.

  @virginmedia broadband been down in ML1 5 postcode for over 12hours - been told engineers are working on it but your service checker shows no issues? Please update your customers on when service will be resumed 🤞🏼

  @EpicLastSong @virginmedia My virgin Internet signal dropped out all the time, after being told to restart several times, I bought a tp-link router and used the virgin one as a modem, no problem after that.

  @virginmedia would you be able to recover my parents landline number if we cancel the contract and swap to you? It appears @youfibre have disconnected the landline number and after 2 days we've had no further information. I've no confidence @youfibre can/will resolve it.

  @virginmedia 20+ years a loyal customer, paying £128/month. New customers can sign up TODAY for the exact same package — Gig1 broadband, Mega TV, Sky Sports & Cinema — for £76.99/month. That's £51/month MORE for being loyal. Explain that. #VirginMedia #CustomerService

  @virginmedia my broadband speed is running at a fraction of what I’m paying for. Please fix it. Makes working from home impossible
