@virginmedia nothing but issues. 2G & 5G always stops working. Updates happens when ever it feels like. And every time I contact Virgin, it's like talking to a 6 year old.

@virginmedia This has been ongoing for over a month now. Pixelated on BBC2, E4, Channel 5 etc. I’m entirely feed up with this awful service and this month my bill has increased again.

@virginmedia But we HAVE NOT MADE the call and because of the “cleverness” of these people, we are not willing to gamble with the investigation. It’s our word against yours! Your “Geeks” could say anything and we’re screwed! We will see out our contract and then CANCEL!!!!

@virginmedia I had no Virgin Media services in Feb. Nor in Easter. Neither do I have them today. Technicians don’t turn up when booked. Today I am using my mobile network 4G to look for a reliable internet service because yours is letting me down too often. Thank you, next.

Just been scammed on our home phone bill for 0905481000. We have been charged £54 for a 40 minute call that we apparently made. @virginmedia have said they will investigate it for a charge of £99.95! (No thanks!)🤯🤬. We never made the call, ONLY received & pressed NO numbers!

Have some sense @virginmedia if your mobile phone systems are having issues why wait until the caller has been on hold for over 15 minutes to play the recorded message that says there's nothing you can do about it #********* #CustomerService

@virginmedia @virginmedia Is there an email I can send to cancel my plan within the 14 days cooling period? Is it your trick who has no customer service available ONLINE + PHONE so I can't cancel?

@virginmedia What? And sit on hold for 2 hours again? I tried calling you before coming onto here. You only have staff on twitter. Not chats. Not phones. If I have to sit through Ed ******* Sheeran for hours again if I ever get through you’re losing another customer

@virginmedia Wanted to cancel my package but told to ring back in a couple of days as their supervisor is in a meeting? Is that how you hold people to ransom? Told to ring 150 again as I wanted to complain but no options to complain. You really do have customers on a tight leash!

@virginmedia our broadband is down. I've checked the service tracker which says our area is fine; the detailed test says it isn't and engineers are working on it - but no job number or details are given. How do we contact to get this resolved?
