    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

    @virginmedia I'm moving home and want to take Virgin Broadband with me. Your 'Let's chat' button doesn't work. Can you help please?

    @O2 and @virginmedia should be ashamed of themselves. 10 tickets per customer is not right. Their loyal honest customers once again miss out thanks to the greedy. As for the websites complete joke should have been prepared for this!!!! #peterkaytickets

    Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported from Wakefield, England

    @KevEdwardsRetro I've been with them for years (Yorkshire Cable before that) but changed to the @vmbusiness service to get 4G backup only to find that it doesn't work when their device is in modem mode. Unable to get through to them though - worst support/customer service I've ever experienced

  • SiDay14
    Simon Day (@SiDay14) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia Did you even read the thread?? Now you want me to complain about an issue I’ve complained about several times already? The whole point is your pathetic response to issues!

  • rywilnot
    Ryan Wilson (@rywilnot) reported from Darton, England

    @SkyHelpTeam broadband this week has been shocking. Following the help and test in the app says all is well (funny that). Not really sure what I’m paying for. Back to @virginmedia

  • jordfcs
    Jordan (@jordfcs) reported from Bradford, England

    @yatin_suvagiya @virginmedia Sky are rubbish 3 weeks I have been calling them to sort out an issue and now the managers that are promising to call me don’t call me back shocking service from @SkyUK can’t wait to leave and virgin have offered me a cheaper deal with more add ons that sky can give me

  • deangledhill
    Dean Gledhill (@deangledhill) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia The 4 people I spoke to said nothing they can do it’s pick and choose !!! Have good internet and not use devises or us smart bulb, plugs or cameras and have poor signal

  • Gav_Leaf
    Gav Leaf (@Gav_Leaf) reported from Castleford, England

    Thanks @virginmedia Glad to know your levels of service are still going to be this utterly dire to justify pumping my price up an extra £15 a month!

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

    @virginmedia And I can’t raise a complaint on the site without having an account, which I don’t have, so that is a pointless endeavour as well

  • Mcollinson72
    Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia ongoing intermittent issues with my broadband for weeks now and yet your website gives no option to get through to anyone to help despite it promising to do so. Keeps telling me to check back in 24 hours. Unacceptable level of service!

  • saffysaffron
    Saffy Saffron(i will be a writer 1day🤞🏼🤞🏼 ) (@saffysaffron) reported from Bradford, England

    @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.

    Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia awful and aggressive scare tactics from your not so friendly cancellations rep when trying to cancel my service. God help any vulnerable person that tries to do the same thing. Shameful

  • hoppywba
    Hoppywba (@hoppywba) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia great to see you hiked my price and the service is worse. And before you say it yes I have reset my box , that's all you ever say 🤬🤬

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

    @virginmedia I tried that and that’s how I got stuck in this situation. Is there a number I can call that is DIRECT for a complaint?

  • jamiewhalley87
    Jamie Whalley (@jamiewhalley87) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia I have been trying to get through to your cancellations department since Saturday. In total, I have been on hold for 3 hours. 1 hour intervals before you cut me off. Your txt service is SH*T. Your agent introduced himself as working for Three, before he disconnected

  • guyrleech
    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

    Anyone else watching Sky Sports News on Virgin Media channel 509 having problems? The picture is flickering/bouncing and the text at the bottom is really blurry. Every other channel, including the other Sky Sports channels, is absolutely fine. Anyone else getting this? @virginmedia

  • Munro78
    John Munro (@Munro78) reported

    @virginmedia Got an email saying my contract expires soon. Taking my payments from £73.50 to £137.50 - I can’t seem to find any new deals that would bring my payments down to what my original contract was. Unless I become a new member and you charge £49.99. This can’t be right?
