    @virginmedia All fine now - but TBH we're probably going to cancel. Our contract is up its going up from £70 to £85/month. To sign a new deal is a £82. Your offer to new customers is £45. I can't be bothered with this hassle every few months so am looking at sky. Thanks for checking though 👍

  • fostersbarbie Ang Gray (@fostersbarbie) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia tv,internet down for last 2 hours... hub flashing 2 green arrows.., help?!

  • tomasquith93 Tom Asquith (@tomasquith93) reported from Twyford, England

    @virginmedia I’ve called, but that provided no help. I was told I’d get a callback from a team closer to the issue in 24 hours - which has since passed. Honestly, not a good start and I’ve not got service yet!

  • rohaaminho Najm Khan (@rohaaminho) reported from Farnborough, England

    Had the worst internet day ever. Never use Utility Warehouse or whoever own the line around here which is @virginmedia

  • rockyrobin1982 Robin Conway (@rockyrobin1982) reported from Bracknell, England

    Hey @itv and @virginmedia. Could you please highlight the #WeMakeEvents campaign along with your footage and advertising of V festival coverage? As without support there won’t be another one to broadcast. #lightinred

  • inmilla68 Inmita Medina (@inmilla68) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia Hi there. Never got my 5 GB SIM card as stated in my contract. Been waiting for over a month and never got it! Impossible to get through customer services to speak to a human...

  • c_s_skinner ©️🅰️®️🅾️ Lℹ️N📧 (@c_s_skinner) reported from Fleet, England

    @virginmedia your WiFi box is rubbish, we keep loosing signal. Dreadful service. Do not recommend 😡

  • tomasquith93 Tom Asquith (@tomasquith93) reported from Twyford, England

    @virginmedia The only detail I’ve had is as follows and it’s hardly detailed. Please can someone tell me what is the issue and where, with timescales. “Hi, it's Virgin Media here. The installation is kept on hold due to construction issue.”

  • lucy_spalton Lucy Spalton (@lucy_spalton) reported from Fleet, England

    @virginmedia Has everything gone down in Fleet? GU51

  • Neeknowsbest Kim (@Neeknowsbest) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia Hi. I have has my your chat open for 24 hours, sent a text message 36 hours ago and no response to either. As a new customer, with a query, this is not a good start.

  • inmilla68 Inmita Medina (@inmilla68) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia 1hour waiting the first time and disconnected. This is the second time, still on the phone and waiting 55min. It is pretty much the whole day wasted trying to talk to customer services. Can you please help?

  • HollySquirrel Kim Marie Pike (@HollySquirrel) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia My husband has been unable to contact anyone at customer service. It seems our router has an intermittent fault. Please advise ASAP. My husband is a key worker (electricity generation), having a stable internet connection, is essential. 2/2

  • djmessyxjessy Jessica Boshier (@djmessyxjessy) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia why do we keep getting cut off from your help line when you’re saying your going to block my mums phone. Answer!!!!

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

    @gracegrxnde @virginmedia My one has been off since half a day when it started raining in London it’s just terrible doesn’t come on at all

  • kirsten_willis Kirsten Willis BEM (@kirsten_willis) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia what is so difficult about customer service these days? Spent the last 4 days going through the repetitive process of checking out WiFi connection, eventually got a number to call TL get cut off after a 30 min wait! Not impressed!

    @virginmedia Yes did do it as soon as I received my letter and could actually get through without the phone getting put down.

  • Mattbloke3 Mattbloke (@Mattbloke3) reported

    @virginmedia I don't think there has been a day this week when @virginmedia hasn't been down for me!

  • hindya27 Rita (@hindya27) reported

    @virginmedia Few weeks ago n today. Said will come back & still awaiting. Landline is not working since 3rd May (as away on 9th May) after new switch was installed by ur engineer.

  • heather_cmartin Heather Martin (@heather_cmartin) reported

    Appalling customer service @virginmedia today. 40 minutes on phone and problem NOT resolved. No assistance at all

  • megan_cfc_ megannn (@megan_cfc_) reported

    @virginmedia has the worst customer service in the world 😤

  • CCp2_CCp3 MC C&C (@CCp2_CCp3) reported

    @virginmedia question regarding @O2 Volt, if I'm on a 100Mb broadband contract, Volt doubles it to 200Mb, but if i upgraded my contract to 200Mb would Volt automatically double me again to the 350Mb service or would i be stuck on 200Mb ie a waste of time upgrading for no benefit?

  • JFLecas_London Jean Francois (@JFLecas_London) reported

    @virginmedia Also the resolution ETA is not reliable as it is more likely that you will change it 15-minutes before the deadline (like always)

  • lannyloo6398 Leanne C 🚓🚑🚒 (@lannyloo6398) reported

    @virginmedia Bad Gateway something or other

  • bee_laurens Essential Worker Spice (@bee_laurens) reported

    @virginmedia Are you able to give me an email address to make a complaint since I can’t access it online

  • arafel2 Paul Walker (@arafel2) reported

    If you’re a new Virgin customer? 350Mb broadband and phone, £32 a month. Customer for 8 years? £48 is the best we can do for just broadband, sorry. Really @virginmedia ? I was hoping for better. 😕
