    @virginmedia hi, I’m trying to contact you regarding a mobile phone contract I wish to cancel, but can’t get through by phone and the chat function won’t pick up my problem

  • Rochdale_Cowboy Rochdale Cowboy (@Rochdale_Cowboy) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia Perhaps try kerpying your internet service 'up' for 26mins. Currently you're up to 17mins past the hour before it fails. Keep practicing.

  • terrygparrott TGP (@terrygparrott) reported from Farnborough, England

    @virginmedia Broadband in GU14 is up and down like a "****** draws". I pay for 350 Mbps but am getting much less than that. I've rebooted and reset my Hub 3, please sort it out!

  • philip_e_davies Philip E Davies (@philip_e_davies) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia Came back on late Sunday afternoon - obvs pleased its back on but shouldn’t really have taken 46 hours to fix

  • nigel_dawson Nigel (@nigel_dawson) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia just switched to you guys this week to get away from poor broadband! What a joke this is, now paying more and I have no service at all. Cheers 😡

  • OutdoorDaveGB David Bruton (@OutdoorDaveGB) reported from Reading, England

    @PhelanHill @bt_uk @virginmedia If it works it's brilliant but if it doesn't @virginmedia 's Customer Service is woeful in my experience (and @GBRChris_A 's) Currently even with all the people working at home it is good @ 200 Mbps !

  • philip_e_davies Philip E Davies (@philip_e_davies) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia Came back on Sunday morning, obvs pleased it was fixed but a 14 hour outage this weekend following a 46 hour outage last weekend, service used to be so good but seems to be very unreliable at the moment

  • Rochdale_Cowboy Rochdale Cowboy (@Rochdale_Cowboy) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @Bluebird_7777 @virginmedia Cancel your direct debit. And when they call you - ask them to fix your box

  • rfc_1871 Marvellous Meite 🇨🇮 (@rfc_1871) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia get your shit together ffs

  • aamer74 aamer habib (@aamer74) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia It is all plugged in but every day when it gets hot it stops working and does not come on till the late evening and in the morning it’s the same back to not working

  • OutdoorDaveGB David Bruton (@OutdoorDaveGB) reported from Reading, England

    @GBRChris_A @virginmedia Not good! Unfortunately my experience of their Customer Service/Technical support when required a couple of years ago was frankly lamentable. Lots of promises absolutely zero action/solutions

  • philip_e_davies Philip E Davies (@philip_e_davies) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia A fuse had tripped out on Friday - literally took engineer a few seconds to fix it

  • boffbowsh Paul Bowsher (@boffbowsh) reported from Wokingham, England

    Virgin Media down again today. Getting increasingly tempted by FTTPoD.

  • terrygparrott TGP (@terrygparrott) reported from Farnborough, England

    @virginmedia I'm paying for 350 Mbps and getting less than 100, very poor now. You website says no problems so its telling porkies!

  • chopper2fit ruthless (@chopper2fit) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia I would never ever recommend your broadband service to anyone !! Constant issues! Came back to you from sky as was promised a much better service !! Guess what it’s worse than ever

  • Elobeid82Sausan SassyElo (@Elobeid82Sausan) reported from High Wycombe, England

    @virginmedia No interest connection in High Wycombe. Please advise on when the issue will be resolved.

  • saeedahmed0 Saeed Uchiha (@saeedahmed0) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia your internet is awful! I’m not paying for a black box that flashes lights. Fix up

  • cra1gs Craig (@cra1gs) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Yes tried that and just called ur CS centre. Once again the person who took the call couldn’t care less. This is the 2nd time this month it’s gone down without any explanation or compensation

  • MICKLE_M MICHAEL (@MICKLE_M) reported from Mollinburn, Scotland

    @virginmedia wifi down again

  • qshahawan Man of Vision (@qshahawan) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia very disappointed in the service you are providing. I am being billed they bloody amount for the last few months where i have downgraded the bloody service.

  • rafthemaster Richard Frame (@rafthemaster) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia Hi - issue hasn’t resolved from reboot (didn’t appear to be an update). Also seeing very intermediate problems where programs freeze momentarily/blur (almost like on satellite when the weather gets in the way / when the hard drive was struggling to playback files)

  • Antoinne73 Vampire Bait (@Antoinne73) reported from Rotherham, England

    100 days!!! You did it @virginmedia 100 days without contact about my terrible tv reception. (You say 28 days when I signed up) #moneyandrun

  • cra1gs Craig (@cra1gs) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia having problems again with the internet. Apparently your app says it’s fine. It’s not. Sort it out.

  • MrVestibule DV (@MrVestibule) reported from Preston, England

    Hey @virginmedia my internet speed has dropped massively over Christmas and is still poor. I get that people are probably using more bandwidth but this is unacceptable - I’m paying for 200mb & getting 10. I’ve done all the tests and resets with no joy 😤. #virginmedia #broadband

  • Ianiesta8 Ian Fitzpatrick (@Ianiesta8) reported from Falkirk, Scotland

    @virginmedia I was looking to upgrade to a TV Package, but the deal for a new customer was far better than the deal I was offered.

  • YvonneM28 Yvonne M (@YvonneM28) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @virginmedia Thanks but from what I read on social media yesterday, we were not the only ones using Virgin Media having problems and sure we do not all live in Welling! Will see what happens next time we try to watch #EFL footie on the red button. But thanks for the acknowledgement
