Stu Jones (@StuJonesMusic) reported from Kidderminster, EnglandHi @virginmedia, I am in Kidderminster, Worcestershire (DY11) and my Virgin Media broadband connection is very poor this week. I have checked your website & apparently there are no issues in my area. I have also restated my access point/router twice but no improvement.

The number you helpfully provided hangs up after sending a link… please advise how I talk to someone about my account.

Steve Lees (@measlewolf) reported from Dudley, England@virginmedia afternoon. I’ve been on hold for 25 mins and when I finally got through the line went dead after security questions. My mum has been without her TV service for over a week. Last night an engineer was due by 6 o’clock and never showed. Another text stating the 26th

Howard Martin 💚 (@HJMKent) reported from Kidderminster, England@virginmedia Can you please explain why, when I renewed my package in March you reduced my last invoiced bill to reflect the change & took by DD what you said you would! Now you say you will suspend my service because I underpaid? You took what you wanted!
-

Steve (@TykeSteve) reported@keithapearson @virginmedia That must be for the orange idiot??
-
kevan ramsdale (@KevanRamsdale) reported@Claim_Respond_V I appreciate Virgin Media complying with the EA2010 trying to dictate the terms you provide a service is both unlawful & arrogantly ignorantly rude #disabledhatecrime you can find my details through my account!
-
Adz (@MrAdz259) reported@virginmedia I was informed by a customer service rep, that my service would be disconnected on April 16th, after notifying on March 16th, that I had switched providers via one touch switch.
-
John Mercer (@Merse2506) reported@virginmedia can someone please help me. I have l8ved with buffering, channel failed fir mintjs to no avail of a response for VM.
-
Sean Milroy (@Seanster1984) reported@virginmedia why are you telling people to get a booster after upgrading to 360 when a box is connected to its router through Ethernet cable? Ethernet connection is better. Wi-Fi is a luxury. People are paying over odds for service but you want them to pay more? Get a grip!!
-
iPaulTweeting (@iPaulTweeting) reportedHere’s an idea @virginmedia if the question your bots are asking have no relevance to the question you asked perhaps one of the options presented could be ‘talk to a human’? Also, although I’m not really that bothered that your support staff are not English please note that it does not aid understanding
-
Lee Manton (Λη Μαντον) (@mantonl) reported@tina0402x @SkyUK VirginMedia are good when you’re a new customer, I’ve been with them since they took over NTL but once your contract is up, that’s when it turns into a nightmare. They don’t give a toss about existing customers. Every renewal is a fight & their offshore teams are useless.
-
BigF (@Bigg_F_) reported@virginmedia Yes. Eventually got through via chat to a real person. They advised a factory reset of hub which is a complete pain to set back up and it made no difference. Engineer arranged to come today. I also raised a formal complaint. Mysteriously it’s working two hours later.
-
Urban Groove (@Urban__Groove) reported@virginmedia So you bombarded me with phone calls to upgrade till i had to admit defeat, you told me i have free nextflix premium for a whole year, so i register a netflix account and now your asking me to pay £15.00 to use this service? what an absolute rip off😡 NOT HAPPY!

Lee Hustle Malone (ACC INACTIVE/NOT MONITORED) (@MaloneHustle) reported@heavyspoilers I think Virgin Media is down mate don’t sweat it.
