    Jack Kelly (@realjackoh187) reported from Widnes, England

    @virginmedia Visit was fine replaced wifi. I was never out of Internet completely like it says only your compensation page, but it was equally as bad since my step daughter had online training to do which couldn't be done at all. My children also were not able to do homework.

    Having the choice of the awful customer service of @virginmedia or the @bt_uk network which in my area might as well be two tin cans tied together with string is great!

    @virginmedia If my bill went down with my speed, I wouldn't mind.

    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.)

    @virginmedia I have a booster. It was sent to me last Spring because of previous problems with TV in this room.

  • Billzy79
    Billzy (@Billzy79) reported from Liverpool, England

    @Jacedafaceis @virginmedia Yes. Been out to lake district, and 4G mobile phone signal was quick and more reliable than the broadband. And people thought it was normal.

  • tomrushton88
    Tom Rushton (@tomrushton88) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia And the last complaint I raised over this got cancelled because it didn't have any details to the complaint even though all the messages are there to see through your WhatsApp service but the retentions team can't see that or deal with the complaint or help in anyway way

  • Robertlfc_
    Rob (@Robertlfc_) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia thanks for the awful internet service, f*cking useless you are

  • AndyMcK1982
    Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp We have just signed up for a broadband/phone package. We were recommended by a friend. They never gave us a code though as they are a pensioner. We were told to simply give her details in but the operative would not accept. Can we still get a code after?

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

    @jenwahkiddles @virginmedia Pity they didn’t do it for us, had no tv or broadband for over 3 months and can’t even get the compensation they owe us, plus the direct debits they took knowing we had total loss of service. Shambolic company.

    @MrCallum011 @virginmedia @peterkay_co_uk Ditto . Been down more than a ****** knickers lately

  • supergran22
    Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia Thanks. Very frustrating and time consuming. Spent whole afternoon trying to sort it. Twitter not really the best way to resolve issues especially with an 82 year old.

  • Robertlfc_
    Rob (@Robertlfc_) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia is honestly the worst company for WiFi

  • NdawanaY

    @virginmedia They worked on it, or so I thought. I was told they fixed some external connections issue (outside the house)

    Does anyone else in Ireland has @VirginMediaIE as their mobile data provider? It's THE WORST service out there! God do I regret switching to Virgin Media, this mistake has cost me money and patience.

  • wfc2000uk
    pat (@wfc2000uk) reported

    @LutzSchueler @virginmedia of urgency, it’s happened quite a few times over last few years, I been a customer for 20 years now. Your customer service said need to £700, cancellation fee. Which I’m not willing to pay. I look forward to your reply.

  • bull_robin56713
    🇬🇧 Rob @No-Bull-Politics 🇬🇧 (@bull_robin56713) reported

    @virginmedia I'm sure I'm not alone in having asked you to reduce my service, such as cancelling a second set-top box, in order to reduce my bills. As you can see here I asked for my bills to be reduced in Jan 2024. Yet notice how those bills have crept up again ever since. There has been no increase or improvement in the service you provide to justify this. According to my analysis, despite having gained a better paid job recently, my net income is down 4.2% compared with 5 years ago. Like many, I am going to have to tighten my belt, and those bills that increase without any prior warning must be the first to go.

    @biggle1908 Virgin media broadband is excellent. Problems start when you phone them…if you understand Indians with a less than rudimentary ability to speak English, go for it.

    @virginmedia WHY DO YOUR CONTRACTORS NEVER SHOW UP?! 3 WEEKS OF NO BROADBAND AT THIS POINT AND NO SIGN OF ANYONE FIXING IT BECAUSE YOUR STAFF DONT TURN UP

    @EDFofficiel Customer support at EDF UK shows a level of incompetence which is worse than Virgin Media, and God knows VM is utterly useless.
