  • bromley001 Si (@bromley001) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Rebooted my phone earlier, no effect. Not actually had to call or text anyone today, but my signal icon has said 'Emergency Calls Only' all day. I'll definitely check that signal strength link though, thanks.

  • JaseCritchley Jase Critchley (@JaseCritchley) reported from Hoyland Nether, England

    @virginmedia I didn't realise when I negotiated a deal I'd be automatically entitled to no compensation and rubbish customer services. Lesson learnt.

  • JaseCritchley Jase Critchley (@JaseCritchley) reported from Hoyland Nether, England

    @virginmedia Yes, dispite your Call Centre saying no area issues your status page says otherwise. Fix at 10pm. Lost all services not just internet.

  • Gary_Moore14 Gary Moore (@Gary_Moore14) reported from Chesterfield, England

  • NickNwarhurst Nick Warhurst (@NickNwarhurst) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia the company that’s only looks after new customers, not long serving ones. Me: paying £34 for vivid100. New customers £29 or £34 for vivid200. VM customer services, well you can have vivid200 for only £54. 😳🤬

  • crawfordjane74 Jane Crawford (@crawfordjane74) reported from Wentworth, England

  • dangriffin37 @DEG44Griffin (@dangriffin37) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia so please explain the 20% hike in my bill every month just because you are discontinuing my chosen plan and offering me exactly the same plan for an extra £3 per month, been a customer longer than I care to remember but utterly disgusted by this #virginmobile

  • JasonCHaydon Jason Haydon (@JasonCHaydon) reported

    Hi @virginmedia, I've been on hold for about 3 hours over 3 calls with 3 different agents trying to sort out my home move. No one seems to be able to help and each time I've been put on a silent hold for over 30 minutes. I need this sorted ASAP. Can you please help

  • cazamic Carolyn Clayton (@cazamic) reported

    @virginmedia I have had a poor wifi signal for a year now. used to always show the wifi lights, now its orange and its terrible. The catch up tv never works, i gets errors gallor. I want to leave, next door on sky but would accept an engineer trying to fix the issues first.

  • Profitprofit1 Investology (@Profitprofit1) reported

    @virginmedia Getting very slow connection than my usual speed. Please look at the situation

  • ML_2193 Mike (@ML_2193) reported

    @virginmedia now reneging on services offered in text chat after all the hassle involved with our installation after moving. Bunch of con artists. Would really advise anyone looking at getting Virgin Media to go to a different supplier. Nothing but problems with this lot

  • samkkalleyne Samantha Alleyne 💙 (@samkkalleyne) reported

    @virginmedia I have done this. The matter has not been resolved. As I said this seems to be a technical glitch at your end that is a new problem and is affecting many people. Hence me asking you to investigate. I searched here on Twitter and found many users with same issue.

  • cazamic Carolyn Clayton (@cazamic) reported

    @virginmedia And I want to leave now because of all this. I am sure my contract ended in January. I have made complaint with their unethical way of taking money from me. I really have had enough of virgin. Unless they can sort my problem and give me a strong signal i want to leave.

  • KieranSumner Kieran 🏂 (@KieranSumner) reported

    @virginmedia I appreciate it may take longer to resolve a complaint but as a standard you should be providing consumers with written Acknowledgement of the complaint within 5 business days. Of which you have failed to do so.

  • KieranSumner Kieran 🏂 (@KieranSumner) reported

    @virginmedia It was made over the phone through one of your advisors. I’ve found the “complaint tracker” but whoever raised the complaint has raised it with an incorrect contact number. They’ve put a landline as my preferred contact which nobody will be able to reach me on as I don’t use it.

  • attztt attztt (@attztt) reported

    @virginmedia I'm repeatedly getting calls to my landline from "Virgin Media" saying there are some issues with my internet. I've been assuming these are fraudulent and not actually Virgin Media, but want to be certain. How can I tell whether these calls are legitimate or not?
