    @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!

    @virginmedia Typical Virgin Media response. Passing me on. Not actually solving the problem. I will never come back to @virginmedia and will advise all my friends never to think of using you.

    @virginmedia The status checker says intermittent signal in your area. It's disgusting with how much I pay for broadband.

    @virginmedia I received my new 500+mps broadband only to get 6mps on my phone in my room. The Router is Terrible and cannot send the speed to devices via wifi. Not Good for anyone

    @virginmedia are crooks, taking advantage of a vulnerable person. Sold a product never set up as no engineer arrived after numerous requests. Calling to try and bully them into a paying for a service they cancelled that was not fit for purpose, disgusting scum.

  • JulieFeronica
    littlemisssunshine (@JulieFeronica) reported

    @virginmedia what's going on in CF14? The broadband is constantly dropping out. App is useless... always says there's nothing wrong until I check the hub, then it's an "intermittent signal". This is just woeful.

  • smithers263
    Jane Smith (@smithers263) reported

    @virginmedia hi, is there an issue with blueyonder emails? Was working ok this morning till about 10:30 am

  • SteT238
    Ste (@SteT238) reported

    @virginmedia The first engineer cleared errors off the hub then requested the underground engineer to attend who then replaced the cable underground to the property. Our next door neighbour has also reported the same issue.

    @virginmedia It went down at the weekend so please can you refund me?

  • Katiebush6
    Katie (@Katiebush6) reported

    @virginmedia the new router is a terrible design. Why are the airholes at the top, so now all the dust is going to easily get into the box and damage it quicker. There's no pull out tab to easily see WiFi password and the router is wider 🫠

  • cleggy1966
    Simon (@cleggy1966) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, and there is no issue showing
