    Marian Martin (@marianmartinart) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia the WiFi here has been awful for the last few months, we've been on the same router for twelve years now, is there anything you can do to help?

  • beccaleigh99
    Rebecca Gould (@beccaleigh99) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia hello, since you ‘upgraded’ the WiFi in our area - Clerkenwell- the WiFi signal has been terrible. To whom shall I complain? Thanks

  • ChristineAllado
    Christine Allado (@ChristineAllado) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Looks like there are issues that need to be resolved hopefully by tomorrow.. Is this something that might be fixed sooner and am I able to seek compensation?

  • MelanieHart72
    Melanie Hart (@MelanieHart72) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia You have put my bill up from £84 to £96 in one month and you are not providing a service I should have my full services 24/7 for that price and getting any compensation it like getting blood out of a stone !!! Disgusting service

  • SandraS80775853
    Mary (@SandraS80775853) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia @Miss_SKM That is correct. What it does not cover is the persistent loss of service since August!!! #se7. Nor does it cover the absolute woeful customer services, and I use that phrase lightly, which @virginmedia is able to offer.

  • BBLn15
    Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia DB was dealing with this issue but has not responded since lunchtime Friday

  • elthampalacegay
    royal 🌈 (@elthampalacegay) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I’m going to get disciplined in work as I don’t have internet connection. Who can my employer speak with to confirm this is a virgin issue??

  • jfcolomer
    Juan Folgar Colomer (@jfcolomer) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia what's the reason for the intermittent broadband service in the Charlton #SE7 area? Any ETA when this will be solved?

  • BBLn15
    Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia 14 hour wait for a response on your chat bot and I still haven’t passed security. That’s some service

  • markatpt
    Mark Armstrong (@markatpt) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia you have now postponed an installation scheduled for 4th November to Christmas Eve! Can’t see that happening. Maybe someone actually based in the UK might bother to contact me about this? Minded to cancel otherwise. Not acceptable service.

  • Barchetta66
    Helen Pinkers (@Barchetta66) reported from Islington, England

    @Whiskey_Mick @virginmedia We’ve just had the same experience - waited 8 days. Not a word from them. Not a human spoken to. If I had another choice I’d drop them. 0/10 for customer service.

  • paulstevenlewis
    Paul Lewis (@paulstevenlewis) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia how do I connect to London Underground WiFi now you have turned off your own hotspots? Hopefully you are not just depriving all Virgin Media customers of the service! Especially as you are putting all your prices up!

  • DerrickSWB
    Derrick Brown (@DerrickSWB) reported from Lower Clapton, England

    @virginmedia Can someone advise how I fix the Wi-Fi pod which isn’t working with my new router - I had to upgrade at extra cost to receive new kit as the lead time was shorter than getting a competitor in #ThisIsWrong

  • tripodmatt
    Matrim Red Hand (@tripodmatt) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia hello - I'm moving house and was told I'd receive something to post back your equipment. Nothing yet. I tried to call but was cut off. Any help?

  • BancoDePapa
    グラハム・スミス® ©Official (@BancoDePapa) reported from London, England

    I wonder if anyone has a #skyglass connected to a #virginmedia broadband? At least with #SkyQ your TV service will be unaffected

  • islingtonlloyd
    Lloyd Child (@islingtonlloyd) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Hi, yes I did. But still no service before I left home. Online service checker just said problems with TV & Broadband in my postcode area. Currently not at home, but will check upon my return.

  • DerrickSWB
    Derrick Brown (@DerrickSWB) reported from Lower Clapton, England

    @virginmedia The uplink is failing and it’s being denied access to the network as it’s poking and failing

  • _RhysThorne
    Rhys (@_RhysThorne) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia have to be *the* most unreliable WiFi providers. 2 days with no internet and it’s still not working!

  • tlcko1882
    Burnley Dave:Not woke just human.💙🌈🍺🇪🇺 (@tlcko1882) reported from London, England

    @journokeith @virginmedia Good as in they acknowledged your existence was what I meant. That's how their "customer services" is set up, they don't have the staff based in the UK to deal with it and all they can do is what they are doing.

  • joybrenda

    @skytv due to Virgin media issues, couldn't watch the final episode of " and just like that" , screen pixated. When will you repeat so I can watch/record. #virginmedia

  • janethebuell
    Jane (@janethebuell) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia Same problem with @skytv. Told them mum had died & wanted account closed. They said "we cannot close the account, we need to talk to the account holder". I repeated she died. I gave up, sent the equipment back & ignored the flurry of demanding emails. Very distressing.

  • w47carr
    Mrs c (@w47carr) reported

    So been without WiFi and tv because of @virginmedia outage in barnsley since early morning supposed to be fixed by 5pm tonight and 4g is useless

  • kkitkat_exe
    spidella's kitkat🍫||offline (@kkitkat_exe) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia contact the ombudsman directly virgin media is useless they signed us up for their stay connected service w/o telling us and kept sending us bills when we didn't even have their equipment basically the ombudsman is the best way to get them to stop harassing you for money

  • LeeHodler
    TheBotfather (@LeeHodler) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia I had a similar issue with Scottish Power - it’s shocking how useless these corporate pirates are..

  • GretaTigress
    Greta D (@GretaTigress) reported

    @JamieGBarry @virginmedia High time Ofcom simply banned new-customer prices. Let’s have the same prices for everyone, and the out-of-contract prices should get equal prominence. Even the biggest @MartinSLewis worshipper is fatigued by constant switching

  • milesc2003
    Miles (@milesc2003) reported

    @virginmedia due to last nights thunderstorm in WS14 the fiber broadband had been down since 3am. Spoke to a human at 8:30am who said they are waiting for an update. No internet for 9 hours for many people who WFH. Any updates would be appreciated

  • RyanHerd14
    Ryan Herd (@RyanHerd14) reported

    @JamieGBarry @virginmedia It’s ridiculous, and a predatory business practice. Raise the out of contract price by 2-3x and, if one customer doesn’t noticed but 2 cancel, they’ve still increased revenue and reduced overheads and admin.

  • GR_BEAR1979
    GR-Bear🏆x55 (@GR_BEAR1979) reported

    @virginmedia @JamieGBarry Absolute pish !!! I had an introductory offer of £94 for 18 months !! Then it jumped to £205 😵😵. Exact same package. Looked at recontract - offered less services, slower broadband etc for £170. Don’t believe the recontract nonsense, it’s still expensive and a lesser service

  • SaffaJC
    JC (@SaffaJC) reported

    @davekeena1 @virginmedia Mate I would reconsider virgin. Their customer service is the worst. They will admit they messed up but do nothing to rectify it. The staff are either inadequately trained or simply don’t care. Manager are the same unqualified under trained and useless

  • korky69
    mick auckland (@korky69) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia reminded me of when my dad passed away with the then "orange" mobile network, called to cancel and pay the outstanding balance, they insisted on speaking with the account holder? explained he had died, they still demanded to speak to him! never the less the bill was left unpaid
