@sky @virginmedia hey @SkyUK You should tell your customer service: “Online, mail and telephone order customers have the right to cancel their order for a limited time even if the goods aren’t faulty. Sales of this kind are known as ‘distance selling’…

@virginmedia It's the same place & situation as yesterday, and, once again, after a few hours of no signal, once I actually Tweet about it, it suddenly reappears! No worries here now, ta.

@TrainedPengling @virginmedia The problem I have with this, is that whenever their broadband has gone down, so had my mobile with them at same time. Like when it all went down nationwide earlier this month. Having free 4g when you actually can't connect is kinda pointless lol

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

@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.

@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. 😳🤬

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

@virginmedia ....I just want to cancel Premier Sports. The guy who answered after 30 mins was polite but your system crashed twice. Not sure it's been cancelled and don't have another spare 30 mins to call again

@virginmedia Nothing has happened today, I'm just commenting on your offer to give all broadband customers free mobile 4g when your broadband goes down. Whenever my broadband had gone down, so has my cellular connection also.

@virginmedia No, everything on there is telling me 'very good'. But! Ironically, during this very exchange, my signal has popped up (although it's now not as strong as when I started writing this Tweet). Looks like me looking at the website has scared it into working. :D

@virginmedia The guide doesn’t do much to help the issue relating to the decline in our speeds. I’ve followed it multiple times and never gotten an increase after following it

@Sesselwakey @virginmedia If they’ve put the price up mid contract you can leave without any fees I will never use @virginmedia ever again due to their poor customer service

Chris Peach

@virginmedia It is working now but I was told it had been made so that bt sport channels weren’t available on tv apps. Was it a technical issue or is it likely to happen again and some channels/programmes be unavailable?

@beanieboy444 @virginmedia Worst customer service I’ve ever experience, constantly lied to us, Virgins word against ours, but hey ho they continue to operate unprofessionally

(@mattford9494) reported
@virginmedia Don’t bother they end up taking twice as much as you agreed. They’ve taken £635 off me in 3 months. The wifi drops out twice a day regularly. They have an absolute shambles of a customer service I’m cancelling my subscription @virginmedia

@StoneGringo @virginmedia @bt_uk Yeah, absolutely not a rights issue. Judging by other tweets and the community forum it looks like they've actually done something to fix this now, which is great. I'd just love to see some acknowledgement of this.

@virginmedia down again, line fault since Nov. Internet cuts off between 12/1am every night! Was told it was line check, this morning told I need all new equipment, £151 bills aren't acceptable for this service. I don't want new equipment months on, I'm cancelling.
