@virginmedia And I can’t raise a complaint on the site without having an account, which I don’t have, so that is a pointless endeavour as well

@virginmedia please sort the Sky Red button issue which is preventing Sheffield United fans subscribed to Virgin from experiencing the service they've paid for.

@virginmedia Third time it's been down today now. Yes completely down, we have no Internet at all. What other services do you mean? We only have broadband with you. Yes, I've booked but not until next week, we CAN NOT have this service for 3-5 days before someone comes out?!

@virginmedia @lionsgateplusuk Wish I could enjoy this but my so called 500mb service is so poor I’ve virtually been without internet for a week. Finally your team viewed it as urgent because I do work from home on Zoom and…an engineer is coming on Tuesday. When BT Reach put full fibre in my area it’s bye bye

@virginmedia Sure, office this morning at about 8am. No service and Internet access by 9.30M and popped back late morning and still nothing around 10.45am. So finished my admin at home with my own broadband connection. Didn't call or raise the issue as its a pointless exercise. Cheers

@virginmedia How do I open a complaint then, because I’m still stuck on the phone with her and she is refusing to let me make my complaint.

@virginmedia I’m trying to resolve an issue with your collections team regarding an incorrect default and because I no longer bank with the same account and do not have those details, they won’t talk to me, yet they are happy to just take money off me without telling me why. It’s disgusting

@virginmedia So you're telling me to be without stable /any Internet for at least 3-5 days and that is okay and acceptable? No. We work from home. You need to fix this.

@virginmedia Seriously talking to walls here. I think the wall would bounce of what I'm saying and you guys not reading what typeing at all And it is apparent that despite the fact you trying to help. But you have no control to do anything. Thank you this was a waste of time

@virginmedia It is now up and running again. I don't expect a fault free service. But the regularity with which these faults and outages are happening is a far way from the level of customer service I do expect.

@jwaddington2802 @virginmedia I agree with the broadband issues, my internet went down to pretty much 15mb after giving my notice. They called me back with a great offer and the broadband speeds increased to my mximum for the area. #interesting

@virginmedia .@virginmedia just so you know, your terrible broadband has dropped 3 times today. Working is incredibly difficult with this atrocious product.

@virginmedia 1 of 2. I have moved home, into an area that is not covered by virgin so I need to cancel. I was quoted £240 to cancel as I apparently signed up for a 18 month contract. I have requested the voice comms from this call as I was informed it was a 1 month rolling contract.
