    @virginmedia This is a long story. But Virgin have changed my IMEI number making a second repair not possible. My account is down and even Virgin can't access it. I've been promised calls back several times but they've not happened. The litany of Virgin failures is impossible to put in a text

    @virginmedia I am trying to access live chat as I have blackspots in house and would like WiFi boosters from Virgin. I have 200 Mbps but am getting only 20mbps in bedroom. Cannot find live chat on sites other than loads of help pages. Really frustrating

    C Borrill-Bromige (@cboxot) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia I've been having issues with internet dropping out continuosly for a couple of months, you sent another WiFi pod still the problem is there! The hub 3 status network connection has warnings and is critical, losing sync! I have been spin around in circles

    Kelly **** (@kellydyke08) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia time now 11:14pm and certain channels still aren’t working, things said they have recorded when they haven’t, search function also still not working code c133. I think a refund is due to a lot of customers 👎🏻👎🏻#virginmediadown

    @ClassicSoulDJ @virginmedia Get @BTGroup much more reliable - have read so many stories about #Virgin having problems

    @BBCWatchdog can you help @virginmedia make it impossible to complain or resolve any issues the ultimate poor customer service!!

  • Lisa2672
    Lisa Philpott (@Lisa2672) reported from Rayleigh, England

    @Shayan86 @virginmedia It’s a disgrace - my husband works in tv too. You 100% cannot rely on VM. I am definitely changing. My bill started off at £35 and is now £45 as we had to buy boosters. Worst service ever. Skybroadband non-fibre was better than this.

  • rrrussboy
    Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia Actually that’s wrong, I received an email to advise that the complaint had been resolved and had to respond saying it hasn’t. What hope is there when you can’t even get a complaint right?

  • keldaaa
    Kelda🥤 (@keldaaa) reported from Canvey Island, England

    @virginmedia I can’t seem to find an email address or postal address for general queries, can you please provide me with one? My nan is now in a care home with dementia and we need to cancel her landline, broadband & mobile on her behalf so need to write to you to give details.

  • statusquo44
    Peter Fudge 💙 (@statusquo44) reported from Canvey Island, England

    @leonagraham @virginmedia Yes, the issue is you’re being denied internet access 👍

  • rob_green86
    Rob Green Jnr (@rob_green86) reported from Thundersley, England

    Anyone else really struggling with slow speeds over the last 10 days with @virginmedia. It's been spot on for 2 years now and then 10 days it seems something has happened. Lucky to get over 10Mb now 🙈

  • briggsym
    matt (@briggsym) reported from Wickford, England

    @virginmedia how can I complain about internet reliability from your service. It has been appalling and inconsistent and seriously considering moving to another provider.

    @virginmedia I had already look at this page previously. And when we have issues there is no indication on what it could be, I. E the *********** light is in as if its connected

    @virginmedia Internet been down in ML5 since yesterday lunchtime. When will this be resolved.any information or updates from apps are vague at best very poor.

  • _DundeePerfect_
    A.Brown (@_DundeePerfect_) reported

    @paulveness1974 @virginmedia I think that many peoples problems stem from using wifi, everything I have connected to the Internet, TVs and PC are hard wired, i never have a problem. I remember I used the Smart TV features once, never used it since, I press somethings it's instant not sat waiting to load.

    @virginmedia your broadband has gotten noticeably bad these last few years, you used to be impeccable but now there’s always some fault you can’t fix and it gets pushed back again and again. ******** has happened to you? Your engineers lately are ******* shite. (Customer for 25 years)

    @O2 & @virginmedia making it as difficult as possible to settle the final bill on an account I have cancelled. App doesn't give me the option to pay. Calls go straight through to their Indian call centre. Absolutely appalling service from the worst phone company in the universe!

  • DrKeresaspa
    Dr Keresaspa 🦉🍉 🇵🇸 (@DrKeresaspa) reported

    @virginmedia Installed 360. What genius decided all the channels I'm not subscribed to will appear as blank screens when I'm channel hopping and how do I make it stop? If that's a deliberate design feature it's awful.

    Keivin Crane (@kcranebda) reported

    @virginmedia being called out! A word of advice. Do NOT use their one switch system. This system is NOT one switch. They promise you get to keep things like your old number. That’s a lie. Poor customer service. They don’t keep their promises. They should run for PM of the UK!
