    @virginmedia I have already called that number this morning. They told me there was no available deals. I've put a note in my diary to call back on the 16th. I'm not holding out much hope though considering the poor experience I've had today. I wanted to sort it today on my day off.

    @virginmedia Looks like most of the Broadband is down in B91 - not showing on your website but tests and local feedback from friends/family suggests this is across entire B91 postcode - can you please fix ASAP 👍🏻

    @BluenoseBeau @virginmedia I have 100mbs supply, over 6 months max received 76.4 for one test soon back to mid 20-30 worst being 0.7 I wouldn't mind so much if it was running at Ave 75%, not when it's seems to be around 35% mark. Oh it's constantly dropping the wifi too!

    Dave (@NamelessWookie) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia it’s all good telling me I can get the 1 gig service but when you try to do things online, the site says you can’t change package online. #usefull

    Cllr Jason Fojtik (@JasonFojtik) reported from Stratford-upon-Avon, England

    @virginmedia I try to contact you about my installation, an hour later u cut me off. Now I can’t get hold of u to cancel. Can’t risk being a customer with ur terrible customer service.

    @virginmedia oh for Christ sakes. Tv not working again. Won’t even pick it up. It’s plugged in correctly (nothing changed but we checked) but my tv is not picking it up at all. All my other stuff works so it’s your issue and your service checker doesn’t help at all!

    @virginmedia internet is down in Solihull and apparently across the West Mids...please sort this out ASAP!

  • daveshep1
    Dave Shep (@daveshep1) reported from Solihull, England

    Wow...!! This appears to be B90, B91 & B92 - @virginmedia you need to get this fixed ASAP - this is no doubt human error to cause issues at this scale - either that or you need some help with your network topology - let me know 😉

    Well that call to @vmbusiness about #VirginMobile has seriously made me reconsider being a customer #Rude #Unhelpful and unable to offer any support other than ring Mon-Fri 8-6 HELLO business works 24x7 #21StCentury

    @virginmedia @MoneyTelegraph trying to cancel services online impossible and no email to complain and calling 151 advises you to go back online. #poorcustomerservice

    @virginmedia @grimegran Bad timing @virginmedia marketing given your Broadband is down across most of Solihull 😔😔

  • BenLimehouse
    Ben Limehouse (@BenLimehouse) reported from Redditch, England

    @virginmedia I'm an existing customer, I've been with you for coming up 2 years. The colleague I dealt with was so unhelpful and just told me to call back on the 16th. I have a back up plan anyway as I've just spoken to sky and can get a 80mb for £25. I can afford the 20mb loss for £34 saving

    Will Riley (@troublewithdata) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia You say there’s no issue but our WiFi has been up and down like the flipping Assyrian empire all day. Very cross!!

  • InternalLoss
    Billy (@InternalLoss) reported

    @virginmedia Is there a reason we could not leave Virgin Media and rejoin as a business customer? I’m not even able to see what rates you can provide me online, and don’t feel comfortable calling up.

  • JenDealey
    Jen Forster 💙 (@JenDealey) reported

    @virginmedia I cancelled my services in March, have had lengthy phone calls and even returned my equipment but you're still sending me bills! Please sort this out, it's tiresome and bad for business.

  • Maxine15720526
    Maxine (@Maxine15720526) reported

    Very unhappy with Virgin Media with a poor service they give to their loyal customers. I am sick and fed up of going home from work and do not have my television service the whole evening until the following day. No compensation is given it's just expected from us to accept it.

  • hannahfearn
    Hannah Fearn (@hannahfearn) reported

    @virginmedia reporting a outage (again) at SE27 that isn’t noted on your service checker. Not a household problem, every Virgin user in the area off again.

    Mark Stewart (@postyboymark) reported

    @virginmedia Got through to someone wasn't happy with response tbh been customer 10 years. Contract expires in 2 months will cancel and move on. Don't think you value your customers just after new ones which is fine thanks for your help anyway

  • LawSociety7s
    Law Soc 7s & Netball (@LawSociety7s) reported

    @virginmedia Broadband and TV both down in SW17. Any update on why, and when we can expect these to be fixed - not like we’ve got a four day weekend ahead of us…

    Dips (@Ndola19) reported

    @virginmedia Thx John, but I won't be wasting another 45+ mins on the phone after I called in last time for this issue. All they suggested was reboot the phone. So many menu's to go through then holding for call to be answered with the usual, Reboot the phone. 😡

    Ali Chan (@AliChan29740530) reported

    @virginmedia I changed Internet provider and they were meant to inform you I was leaving. They didn't and I had to do it, ended up paying £47 for one month service I didn't use. Now you billed me again for £59, I can't afford this😭😭😭
