    @virginmedia Wi-Fi is SO BAD. I’ve check service status online it says it’s fine but I hasn’t been working for 2 hours now. Wtf is you lot doing. It’s been disturbing for weeks now too.

    @virginmedia Is service in London W13 working?

  • HoarseRoar
    eamorugby (@HoarseRoar) reported from Slough, England

    @virginmedia Still no service. Your website tells me service is fine. Over the phone the automated message is “an intermittent service” and when I finally spoke with someone they’ve organised a technician to visit next TUESDAY. It’s a mess.

    @virginmedia how can you watch catch up on the 360 it’s the worst upgrade I have ever done

  • plummerkevin1
    Kevin Plummer (@plummerkevin1) reported from Richmond, England

    @martynenglish2 @virginmedia They have a catastrophic reputation around here ... speeds great in theory but always down, slow and out of order as I see from local shops.

  • not_on_fire

    @virginmedia broadband not working since late last night and your website appears to be down. What’s going on?

  • Griffo2018
    RICHARD GRIFFITHS (@Griffo2018) reported from Spelthorne District, England

    @virginmedia I have been a customer for over 10 years,left for 7 days now with out broadband & home phone. I am being push from pillar to post with reasons.A engineer was meant to be with me from 4pm onwards to now be told no one can come. Shocking service / long term customer.😡

  • ValerieLondon18
    Valerie 🇮🇪 (@ValerieLondon18) reported from Epsom and Ewell District, England

    @virginmedia Couldn't use my phone so couldn't call you. I tried from hotel landline to your so-called help numbers to no avail. All others in a group of 40 people did fine cause weren't using Virgin. Not ideal to have single female abroad no phone, no maps, can't call cab etc. Last century

  • GeoffRogersEU
    Geoff Rogers (@GeoffRogersEU) reported from Hersham, England

    @virginmedia @FeelitWorking I think the OP is airing his frustration at the fact that he has to ask for discount at the end of the contract. VM does not do this with its business customers (I know as a former very satisfied business customer) so why should it apply to consumers? To be fair, Sky, BT, Talk…

    Problems again with @virginmedia in Oxford!! When will you get this sorted #virginbroadband #virginmediadown

    @virginmedia @gosportjack75 Yes. Please ensure you do. It's appalling customer service.

    @virginmedia is there an known outage in KT2 area? Have no broadband or TV.

  • andburd
    Andrew Burdett (@andburd) reported from Maidenhead, England

    Hi @virginmedia, I’ve spent more than an hour on the phone to your advisors this morning and am getting nowhere. I have therefore now decided I would like to cancel my contract (I am within cooling-off period). Would I still be considered a ‘new’ customer if I find a new deal?

  • TimHole
    Tim Hole (@TimHole) reported from West Molesey, England

    @virginmedia Thank you. Just tried an old handset and still no SMS or phone calls can be received. Please help, its already caused a few problems.

    @virginmedia Second tweet! Trying to cancel appointment. App only lets me reschedule, not cancel.

  • fadermonkeyking
    Jeff Brown (@fadermonkeyking) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia weekend only landline calls inclusive. Guess what? Christmas Day, a Sunday and the line’s dead. Self help in the app goes through everything, noise on line, nuisance calls etc but no option of dead line. Tried different handset. #bahhumbug

    @virginmedia Will it be a quick fix?

    Daithi (@daithigor) reported

    I used to be able to cancel Virgin Media over email. I have the emails to prove it. The last time I tried to cancel over email I was told they "changed the system" and had to ring to cancel.

  • winningearly
    Victor (@winningearly) reported

    Virgin Media O2 has acknowledged that its customer service fell below expected standards during the period investigated. The company says it has since made significant improvements to its cancellation processes, customer service operations and staff training.

  • EpicureanCat
    Epicurean Cat (@EpicureanCat) reported

    @premnsikka I had this exact experience with Virgin media, including failure to cancel a direct debit, two payments taken after cancellation, then a complete runaround through call centres with less than basic English spoken in an attempt to get a refund. I would never use @virginmedia.

  • mitzpatel85
    Mitesh Patel (@mitzpatel85) reported

    @Channel4News Don’t think £28m justifies their actions.. if they were deliberately putting customers on hold and dropping call while they tried to cancel, the fine should be £1bn - absolutely pathetic from Virgin Media

  • KillaScorp
    Stuart Green (@KillaScorp) reported

    Is there a company in existence with worse customer service than @virginmedia? Great product, as long as nothing goes wrong and you have to deal with someone!

  • Vocalandproudx
    Vocal and Proud (@Vocalandproudx) reported

    The £28 million fine by @Ofcom was long overdue. Hopefully, it sends a clear message to @virginmedia and the rest of the industry that making it difficult for customers to cancel simply isn’t acceptable.

  • lugazafc
    Gary Jackson (@lugazafc) reported

    The amount of times by broadband has gone down or dropped out from @virginmedia recently is shocking! Thankfully my renewal date is coming up as it won’t be a renew this time after being a customer for a majority of my bill paying life!

  • whild13
    Chris Whild (@whild13) reported

    @virginmedia still no Netflix link/password etc. Really really poor service

  • mcfadden_shaun
    Shaun McFadden (@mcfadden_shaun) reported

    @virginmedia . Hey Virgin. I tried to cancel my contract..over 100 phone calls, they kept hanging up... My credit rating is now affected. Can i open a formal complaint, with a complaint reference number.. so i can take it straight to ofcom please.

  • salemsdaughters
    Kingofsalemsdaughter (@salemsdaughters) reported

    Mishandling calls isnt reserved for virgin media but the NHS and all their staff members. I received a long awaited call from 111 regarding my toddler. Id like to note its very late and he is now asleep. Before id even said hello after answering the phone call she rudely asked if i can hear her not even saying hello herself. That was an indication the rest of the call was going to be pointless. WTF?
