    Good start to the day with @virginmedia informing me my monthly bill is increasing by £15/month and I have until the 17th of April to decide on my options. That is £180 annually. Having been firstly a Nynex customer and a Virgin customer since the takeover think it may be time

    @virginmedia / Super disappointed after calling to renew my contract and as an existing customer you can’t offer anything half as good as a new customer. Shocking customer retention strategy 🤯

    @virginmedia when will the broadband issues be fixed properly in my area?

  • johnjoeoregan
    JJ (@johnjoeoregan) reported from Manchester, England

    @stetopping Remember you did the piece late last year about Virgin Media Broadband being out for a day? It's now been down for six days in some parts of Manchester. Six full days and not a word from the company except automated messages.

  • SurrealPaulT
    Paul Terry (@SurrealPaulT) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia hi Virgin. We had an outage of broadband and TV services beginning 23rd Sept which lasted for 4 days. At the time we were told we would be compensated for this loss. As it hasn't come off our latest bill, how do we claim?

  • Karamonkey1
    Weirdly even older fan (@Karamonkey1) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia And the sum total of welcome texts I received during my 7 night stay in Jamaica was 189. I never moved from the same hotel. I often got 4-8 texts whilst sat at the same restaurant table or in my room. @virginmedia get your act together

  • NJWesthead
    NJW (@NJWesthead) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @virginmedia Broadband/TV outage until 2:35pm but can’t register a loss of service as page doesn’t load. On 4G so problem is with you. Why advertise you’ll compensate if there’s no way to get it?!

    @virginmedia Hi. Is there a difference between cat 5E & cat6 & cat7 ethernet performance wise on your network 🤔. I'm using cat 6 ethernet from my hub 3.0 to your provided powerline booster . Then from powerline booster to my V6 box. I'm using cat7 ethernet from hub 3.0 to V6 🤔

  • CarsbergMazz
    Mazz Carsberg (@CarsbergMazz) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia I've got a bone to pick with you. We got a new box a while ago, and it's randomly wiping the recorded shows. Not one at a time, all at once. We've been in touch with customer services loads of times, but they all just took us through the same pointless (1)

  • Hendy14
    Scott Henderson (@Hendy14) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Is there a problem with your phone system? My Mum has been trying to call for 24 hours on numerous occasions to change package but gets cut off every single time. Your mentions suggest this is happening to lots of others too. Can somebody arrange a callback please?

    Hey @virginmedia why has the internet from around 11am just gone slow all of a sudden or barely working. OL9 area. I've rebooted the router but still no luck. I'm trying to work from home here.

  • Lerounxi
    Reece Jordan Doonan, RN (@Lerounxi) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia can you confirm if there’s active engineer trying to rectify the service outage Manchester (M30). Widespread issues reported according to your service outage on website ?

    Simon Manning 🇪🇺 - SiManM20@mstdn.uk (@SiManM20) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia are you down again in M20? Hub flashing red again.

    @virginmedia Seems fair comment-they aren't sensible! Googled "how effective making complaints to @virginmedia is" and came up with some very negative feedback culminating in: "customer feedback AND regulatory data suggest their handling of complaints is often seen as inadequate" Oh dear🙁

  • st07pat
    Paul Turner (@st07pat) reported

    @virginmedia Morning My wife has received an email from you with pre contract details attached for someone that is obviously not us Not a problem as will just delete the email but guessing whoever it should have gone to is sat waiting for the mail

    @virginmedia Being given 4 different values from different sources about what our monthly bill will be was the worst but there are too many to list...

    @VirginMediaIE Can you please support here I am chasing virgin media since30 days ,I paid last bill Euro 117 last month after discussion with customer care executive Again they have generated bill of around 39 Euro even I informed them I already moved on 6th March 26.

  • Bigg_F_
    BigF (@Bigg_F_) reported

    @virginmedia Yes. Eventually got through via chat to a real person. They advised a factory reset of hub which is a complete pain to set back up and it made no difference. Engineer arranged to come today. I also raised a formal complaint. Mysteriously it’s working two hours later.

  • entrustTMF
    entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported

    @BertySi @virginmedia That's a flat no from @virginmedia on the MiFi with credit suggestion. Question is, are they prepared to do anything to help or assist seriously inconvenienced and frustrated customers?

  • Ninzolow
    Ninzolow (@Ninzolow) reported

    @nib95_ You bought or sourced a MESH now? 👀 Also the bad news with youFibre is there becoming a part of Virgin Media should the deal be approved (Subsidary of the Netomnia Group) 🫠

  • Welshyyyyy

    @keithapearson @virginmedia Couldn't agree more, awful company to deal with

  • GlitteringAngel
    Katie Stevenson (@GlitteringAngel) reported

    Tell me, @virginmedia, how many people do I need to speak to before you make me (a longstanding customer) feel as valued as a NEW customer!? Coming to the end of contract and doing the same merry dance thatbwe always do, trying to get a decent deal!
