  • Andraay Andraay Leung (@Andraay) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia having issues with Wi-Fi at home and your websites including the one on service status checks are not loading? As a result I can’t even report the problem.

  • stumccullagh Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia But when a contract is agreed like a mortgage or a fixed energy deal surely the agreement should last the full term. I’ve had issues since September & been told I can’t leave due to being under a contract so why should my costs go up when I’ve got an agreement in place until Dec

  • saqibsvideos ch Saqib (@saqibsvideos) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Sending me over bill again and again n customer service is even more worst

  • stumccullagh Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia The TV goes all distorted I’ve done webchats phone calls the lot nothing has been resolved was told it was a problem in the area , neighbours have had no issues happened still have issues now but not as often but it’s a bit annoying esp when I’ve not had any money off

  • BeardPunk Beard Punk (@BeardPunk) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Hi. The team have also said that the issue isn’t resolved though? Everything has been reset multiple times this morning and still the same issue.

  • HuntColin58 Colin Hunt (@HuntColin58) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia It took me best part of a day Friday 24/3/2023 to contact you to cancel my broadband but since I finally managed to you have been contacting me 4 times a day. We have signed a contract with someone else. Please stop harassing us we have cancelled

  • EvanD Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Birmingham, England

    @eerosupport hi. I have a Eero 6+. If I connect it to @virginmedia 1gbps service, will I get 1gbps?

  • ReissOmari Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    And just like that my @virginmedia is off again, no internet whatsoever. Embarrassing service from them, very disappointed and frustrated.

  • stumccullagh Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I’m going to but I know I won’t get anywhere anyway the customer never gets anywhere

  • BeardPunk Beard Punk (@BeardPunk) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia any updates on the VPN issue?

  • stumccullagh Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Sheldon, England

    @virginmedia I don’t think so I’m still getting distorted TV on a few channels it’s frustrating as my complaint never gets recified I’ve spent hours on end trying to get it sorted

  • BeardPunk Beard Punk (@BeardPunk) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Rebooted several times. Wi-Fi works fine, it’s just the VPN. Automated message says there’s still an issue.

  • iMcWarner Jay (@iMcWarner) reported

    @virginmedia @SkyUK Virgin media up your game, 20 minutes queuing to speak to customer service about a price improvement, offered another 18 month contract with less services than I have for £60pm and most of the TV is on freesat/freeview. Sky do more for £45pm, You can do better

  • ManagedPlatypus Nate (@ManagedPlatypus) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for confirming. Do you know what time the phone support lines are open until?

  • Barry_21k Adam Drake (@Barry_21k) reported

    @virginmedia Yes my partner has done this already and yes it would be a hub issue as the hub creates the WiFi signal

  • JobIsA4 SteveAtkins (@JobIsA4) reported

    @virginmedia Grrrr, no. she quoted me the final bill as having to pay the full amount, she did not even mention the EDF reduction. good job im not stupid and I know your game :)

  • ElspethThePict Elspeth The Pict (@ElspethThePict) reported

    @BeardofRice1 @virginmedia They received my letter on Tuesday. It was only a couple of quid to get it recorded and I have proof of delivery. It's on their website that you can cancel in writing, and it fulfills your obligation. They haven't responded yet, but we'll see.

  • MikeFirth4 Waiting for Cthulhu (@MikeFirth4) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks, but that appears to be no help. It just gives your hopeless phone number and the Sunderland address we already have. I can't trust you to check anything we post to you. We just want to cancel our broadband as is our right!

  • petermorris1878 Peter Morris (@petermorris1878) reported

    @virginmedia I will attempt to do so through calling 150 on the day I wish to cancel the contract.I will follow it up with a recorded delivery letter, to back that up. I was without broadband from midday on 31st January,until 2pm on 2nd February.Please confirm that I will be rebated for this.

  • JxsttBen JxsttBen (@JxsttBen) reported

    @Andyb86661371 @virginmedia @SkyUK If you're trying to leave em, Just call up and say you're moving countries. They have no choice but to cancel the contract bro

  • danniiscr Dannii Clayton (@danniiscr) reported

    @virginmedia That’s fine I’m at work until 5pm. I’m at my wits end, I’m currently looking into changing to sky and also filling forms out with trading standards and the financial ombudsman to take it further. I’ve been more then open to finding a resolution, but it was offered then retracted!

  • sazm20 Sarah Smith (@sazm20) reported

    @virginmedia on hold to customer services for an hour then they cut me off 🤯 Not impressed!
