    @BlaggerBly @virginmedia Seems to be Wirral wide at least, and I think Liverpool is affected too. VM should be massively compensating their affected customers for this, but they hide behind their terms and conditions where they only deem it reasonable to compensate if the outage last more than 3 days!

    @virginmedia This is not the first time. The service the last 12 months has been shocking And now you're asking for the over the top increase in monthly payments 😡😡😡

    Tony (@AckerHeron) reported from Liverpool, England

    Hi @virginmedia, my dear old mum has been on the phone for 20 minutes because her broadband has gone down. Your advisors keep saying to reset the hub and disconnecting before it's sorted. Any ideas? Still using the crap one you sent years ago despite her recontracting

  • 1AnneMcCormack
    Anne McCormack (@1AnneMcCormack) reported from Billinge Chapel End, England

    @virginmedia I tell them to ring 999 or 0151 709 6010 if they want to report a crime. They hang up but they sound South Asian and their English is poor. I worry about other oaps being conned. Good luck chasing them.

    @virginmedia your customer service team is proper shite. Your router is in the bin outside ours

    Before covid came you was brilliant @virginmedia but ever since then you have been really **** and if it not sorted by next Sunday we are leaving you it literally 2023 and you still got **** service

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia They’ve been today apparently to do the repull and nothing has changed. Still no service. I won’t be paying this month as I’m not paying for nothing.

  • alandean1878
    Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia Everything struggles to stay connected to the Internet. Mobiles, laptops, the TV's. I'm not sure if the speed is an issue as I haven't checked it. (I'm not sure how to.)

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Yes, this has been going on now for months. Was just on to your team to cancel, they hung up on me. I’ve never known a more woeful service. They are quick enough to take payment every month for a service I’m not getting.

    zach close YT (@ZachcloseYT) reported

    Seriously @virginmedia you canceled our contract with you before it even run out just because you have sued and you raised the price to over 200 pounds a month that we can't afford and the rubbish service doesn't even work and I don't want a reply from ai I want a person to reply

    @j_ball13 @virginmedia They were awful when my nan died. I told them so they could cancel everything, sent proof and still tried to charge each month.

  • AngstAHD
    Angela (@AngstAHD) reported

    .@virginmedia how are we supposed to get help/customer service? Phonelines are unanswered, the online chat goes around in circles and then stops communicating, the Whatsapp service doesn't work. Woeful today.

    Vikram (@VikramRajpara09) reported

    @virginmedia I have sent you a private message. A rep rang me on WhatsApp just now to tell me: “Internet is down. It will be back up tomorrow.” I explained IN DEPTH the issues to which I was dismissed to be told you’ll recieve compensation as good will. Good will?? I’m a paying customer
