    @virginmedia New one is I was hoping to sign up to some sort of TV package, but when logged into my online account it gives me a "oops" with no option, so I need to talk to someone. Experience with the number you have given me has been poor, I want to avoid it!

    Me: “I’m going to have to cancel the contract as the landlord doesn’t want me to install the fibre optic broadband anymore” @virginmedia: “Maybe you should just buy the apartment, it’s not very expensive or anything” Confirmed. Virgin Media is Tory.

  • piggypics Les Pigg (@piggypics) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia So we are not just going to write it off as a bad job. Plus my mam finds it hard to understand the persons at the other end of the phone and why they ask for her bank details all we asked was to post out her password for her mobile account.

    @virginmedia Your internet is an absolute joke. The amount of times it goes down on a weekly basis is not even funny.

  • kimico16 Kim Thompson (@kimico16) reported

    @sudoaptgetlife could be a DNS or routing issue with virginmedia, if they don't have it listed as a trusted site on their core network or potentially have data routing issues/ packet loss between their servers and the sites servers for the pi stuff. try changing to Google DNS on your router?

  • prettykitty323 Ali G (@prettykitty323) reported

    I'm 4 yrs trying to cancel a 30 day contract for a sum I never used. I'm off to comreg. Changing from virgin media to another service provider

    @virginmedia Turns out I have to do it each day to get signal in those rooms. Basically the router isnt holding its settings or something. So im back to 4g while my WiFi only works on half of the rooms in my house. Pretty shocking really

  • DaveCampaigns David PhD Stay Home.Protect NHS.Save Lives💚🇪🇺 (@DaveCampaigns) reported

    @virginmedia two service outages in one month and you put the prices up. I don't want a soothing reply, I want you to do better and lower your prices to match the service Under @libertyglobal things seem to be going backwards
