  • 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.

  • Bunglebob66 Robert Bailey (@Bunglebob66) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia get enough money from me and all the others get enough, from the rest of the paying public. So stop being greedy, stop paying the Premier clubs so much and wages will have to come down. There, sorted!

  • 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 🙈

  • TDF_TT TDF TT (@TDF_TT) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia TV outage ME4?

  • JamieMeecham Jamie Meecham🏳️‍🌈♥️ (@JamieMeecham) reported from Canvey Island, England

    @virginmedia care to explain why a member of staff felt that hanging up on a customer complaining about their broadband is acceptable? And now I’m stuck on hold AGAIN to solve my issue.

  • _SamButler Sam #GSBOUT (@_SamButler) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia BT Sports 2 picture keeps getting distorted... any other channel is fine can you help please

  • DronePilotGeoff Geoff Watkins (@DronePilotGeoff) reported from Gillingham, England

    @fasurveyors @virginmedia I have to say; I’m normally pretty pleased with @virginmedia internet. It’s normally fast and reliable. But last couple of days has been awful. It’s getting too expensive as well

  • moebius1967 ron palmer (@moebius1967) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    I'm having real trouble cancelling my Virgin media account. Cant6v chat them, can't email them now on hold for 10 minutes. Just want to end the contract give 30 days notice. New promotion only for new customers. Wtf?

  • jamesrfyoung James Young (@jamesrfyoung) reported from Wickford, England

    @virginmedia your internet has been rubbish recently with varying speeds as low as 5mb 1 minute then 95mb the next! Now it’s gone down completely! On top of not being able to speak with anyone I don’t feel that your service is worth it! #rubbishservice

  • polhilljim Rochester Boy. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 (@polhilljim) reported from Rochester, England

    @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

  • hungoverdrawn Robert Shaw (@hungoverdrawn) reported from Wainscott, England

    @virginmedia It's started working this morning after 24 hours down, bit strange that your website said there were no service issues anywhere 😒 I guess I'll cancel that engineer visit now.

  • polhilljim Rochester Boy. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 (@polhilljim) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia I've already done that. They've made promises but done nothing. I always have to chase you. Phone backs just don't happen. Nobody wants to help.

  • moebius1967 ron palmer (@moebius1967) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @bushontheradio Trying to get through to Virgin media to cancel the contract. Bloody chatbot isn't worth a ****

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

    @westbrookdanni @virginmedia Up to 2 weeks ago I didn't have a bad word to say about them. The pure fact you can't get through to someone is the worst of it. Happy to take your money and trim your internet speeds!

  • Kimlovett Kim Baker was Lovett (@Kimlovett) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia what’s happened to your customer services? I have stayed with you for years now need your help, can’t log into my account need your help and holding forever on the phone ....

  • goonerlgh Lawrence Hooker (@goonerlgh) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia Third Superhub and it's just as unreliable as the previous two. Frequently has to be reset. Slow speeds, unstable wifi. When are you going to replace it with decent hardware?

  • moleyfozz paul fouracre (@moleyfozz) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia trying to log a fault but still not received txt with online link. Telephone always on hold plz help

  • JamieMeecham Jamie Meecham🏳️‍🌈♥️ (@JamieMeecham) reported from Canvey Island, England

    @virginmedia Hopefully the confirmation of the rude man losing his job.

  • polhilljim Rochester Boy. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 (@polhilljim) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia I need to speak to a manager who can help. They don't seem to want to. I have a contract phone, it won't charge, it's under guarantee, I'm paying you and you won't help.

    @virginmedia Well I haven’t been able to speak to anyone so I do still need help please

  • Hcoker23 Harry Coker (@Hcoker23) reported

    @virginmedia My son who plays his ps5 a lot can never get good speeds of internet in his room which is only 10ft from the hub. I know u offer boosters but I don’t think it’s fair that I should have to pay extra when his room is so close

  • acmp42 Adam Pepper (@acmp42) reported

    @virginmedia After a total of 2 1/2 hours on the phone to 7 people, Duncan knew the answer. I still need an engineer visit and the call made no difference to the outcome. I’m really disappointed with the overall service. Just hoping the engineer can help. So frustrated with this.

  • w1nt3r2k10 w1nt3r2k10 (@w1nt3r2k10) reported

    @virginmedia It seems ok after I did a hard reset of the router, but it’s every day it goes down my sons can’t use it for school purposes and I can’t use it for work it’s just a joke. I’m sick of paying for something I can’t use properly

  • Jonatha59225559 Jonathan Wilkins (@Jonatha59225559) reported

    @virginmedia i want the offer shud b easy eh? so how many custoner service agents so far does it take2 actually give me the offer? Answer 6 so far 13 hours on chat & 2 on phone and still not got it, did you do a light bulb changing service at some point? Sure theres a joke in there somewhere

  • latnl8rzdude1 John (@latnl8rzdude1) reported

    @virginmedia Ive just spent 40mins in a queue. Your service doesn't service.

  • BaheraShanee Shanee (@BaheraShanee) reported

    @virginmedia what the helll is up with your network all of a sudden my phone stops working when I am at home no signal and WiFi calling don't work too just says not registered to a network, been using it for months with no issues

  • scottbrowne1981 Scott Browne (@scottbrowne1981) reported

    @virginmedia 48hrs later nah am good ta your response time is almost as slow as your broadband speeds

  • vikasnottm Vik (@vikasnottm) reported

    @virginmedia Fastest and most reliable liars.. nevermind fastest, how about just providing a stable connection and customer service that actually answers the phone and not just increasing the bills without accountability.. #thievingmedia

  • estella_sanchez Lenny - She’s a short lass! (@estella_sanchez) reported

    @virginmedia And that’s exactly my (and everyone else’s) problem. All you companies make it so easy to join - no phone calls or letters required. Yet to cancel we have to jump through hoops. It should be just as simple to cancel, especially in these times!
