    @virginmedia Hi, Liam said someone would call back tomorrow. No issue with service, just can't have in the new build. The service is not in the area. Let's see if we get the call back tomorrow. Shouldn't treat a leaving customer like ****.

    @virginmedia whenever I’m on zoom upstairs and away from my route my wifi always seems to drop out. It’s always says my internet connection is unstable. I’ve restarted router etc is there anything else I can do to boost it

    @virginmedia I had Virgin broadband installed yesterday but need a landline . Unable to get through to customer services. Should have been set up with the broadband . Engineer said I was miss sold the standalone package . Now I’m without a phone.

    @virginmedia WiFi constantly dropping out. How do I fix this plz

  • Helen_Claire71

    Recently renegotiated my contract with @virginmedia just received notification that they are billing me for 50% more than was agreed. Called them and they cannot explain why, and have registered my complaint and someone will call me at some point in the next 48 hours. Scandalous

  • summitsleap
    Anita Whittaker (@summitsleap) reported from Conisbrough, England

    If you are going to cancel a contract and move to a new provider, don't rely on them taking action from your phone request. They can always say you didn't call then continue to charge for something more expensive, @virginmedia will then pass you to debt collection companies.😔

  • ianpnaylor
    Ian Naylor (@ianpnaylor) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Not really. He said that there had been an outage in the area. That seems to happen nearly every day at the moment. Resetting the box multiple times, running a test, waiting then hoping.

  • 67BLADE
    Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Barlborough, England

    @virginmedia I finally got through to a real person via text today and booked a landline appointment, although It’s not the anytime plan that I wanted . Never had so much trouble switching provider. Almost not worth it.

    Ian Naylor (@ianpnaylor) reported from Sheffield, England

    Dealing with ongoing @virginmedia connection issues whilst trying to work is bad enough, but then repeated issues whilst trying to watch #sheffieldUnited lose again is just too much. Especially as my bill is pushing £50 a month. Can't work, can't suffer the footie. Come on virgin

  • millersfm2011
    Barry Wilkinson (@millersfm2011) reported from Conisbrough, England

    @virginmedia Well this is a cracking start. A call back tomorrow rescues the situation. Been a virgin customer since broadband came along. Fingers crossed.

    @virginmedia mandatory internet down again S65

  • statto95
    David JS Dawkes-Hall 💙 (@statto95) reported from Hoyland Nether, England

    And the 4th time today everything has gone down. How am I meant to run a medical company control room when my Internet keeps dropping out? @virginmedia are you going to pay the company for loss of income which is being suffered? Or me for that matter.....

  • statto95
    David JS Dawkes-Hall 💙 (@statto95) reported from Hoyland Nether, England

    @virginmedia I pay £50 a month for my WiFi and Internet, any particular reason it keeps going down.....??

    Been waiting in a queue now to speak to @virginmedia since 08:54, it says not to message back as it’ll lose my place in the queue. Convenient that, absolute trash customer services I have to say.

  • mcgk82
    mharicgk82 (@mcgk82) reported

    @virginmedia I understand they should try to retain customers but not in this way. Not by ignoring what I'm writing and wasting so much time. 8am I started on WhatsApp. Repeatedly I said I need to go and drive please just cancel, even that didn't work. I'm happy to send you the whole convo.

  • hellensysafc
    craig hellens (@hellensysafc) reported

    @virginmedia working from home not possible with your network! Constant disconnects/network changes. Ran all tests and just constantly states intermitent issues! Make it easier to get some one to fix it!

  • martynhardacre
    Martyn (@martynhardacre) reported

    @virginmedia Well I'm not likely to be home for several days. The monitor just shows the service from Virgin not my equipment so the issue just be at the point of service?

    More problems with @virginmedia quoted me one price and emailed a confirmation with a much higher price. I called up they say its the system and I just need to trust them! 90 mins on the phone and all I want to do is leave them now.
