Matt Rose (@mattrose18) reported from Farnborough, England@virginmedia TV is an issue. broadband is not. Tests are always either cannot connect at this time or say there is nothing wrong. Don’t see how my kit in the house can one minute have speeds on +300Mb to next to nothing?
-

Your employees are trying say that I will have to pay to leave my contract, @Ofcom state, I can leave without penalty
-
Jim Moore (@HamiltonNashHR) reported from Winnersh, EnglandSo @virginmedia is down again, and their 4G backup dongle has failed to take over AGAIN. In fact, it has never once failed over to 4G in any of the outages we’ve ever had. Why am I paying for this? 😡
-
Andrew Burdett (@andburd) reported from Maidenhead, EnglandHi @virginmedia, I’ve spent more than an hour on the phone to your advisors this morning and am getting nowhere. I have therefore now decided I would like to cancel my contract (I am within cooling-off period). Would I still be considered a ‘new’ customer if I find a new deal?

Dave Crocker (@davedec60) reported from Reading, EnglandSo @virginmedia once more we have an outage, how many times now in the last 3 months? NOT GOOD ENOUGH!! Currently looking at switching supplier
-
Phil Stacey (@PhilStace20) reported from Maidenhead, England@denman79 @virginmedia The irony is that @virginmedia are more like the Pistols -‘No point in asking you’ll get no reply’ and they seem ‘Pretty Vacant’ but ‘Never mind all that…..’ can someone please take some responsibility and ownership that seems to be sadly lacking atm

Peter ***** (@hoarp001) reported from Fleet, England@virginmedia my broadband is running at 10mbps (supposed to be 200). The app has done a "scan" and it says there is a network error and check back in 24 hours. Problem is, it's still slow three days later and there appears to be no more help on offer. Now what?

-
Edward Hamilton (@epwhamilton) reported@virginmedia internet is down in the area for the 2nd day. Please acknowledge and fix asap
-
John Hawkes (@JohnHawkes2001) reported@Starlink I switched to Starlink and I absolutely love it. The performance has been incredible compared to the UK ISPs I’ve used. I was with Virgin Media, and Starlink beats it hands down for gaming and streaming. The connection is fast, reliable, and far more consistent than I expected from a satellite service. Another big advantage is that I no longer have to deal with the rip-off pricing and policies of many UK ISPs. And if you’ve ever tried leaving Virgin Media, you’ll know exactly what I mean, it can be an absolute nightmare. With Starlink, the whole experience feels much more straightforward and customer-friendly.

Percival Merganser (@lennylaw) reportedPeople moan about @virginmedia but I’ve had great service from their phone guys. Once you’ve found the number.. Internet/wifi been glitching. Indian lad, super helpful, checked and diagnosed in minutes, engineer coming tomorrow, new upgraded router arriving Monday.

Jeanette (@missjnyc1) reported@virginmedia Spent an hour and half on the phone with your customer care team. They couldn’t tell me why they hadn’t turned up, no way of contacting them. Have booked another slot for tomorrow, the team wouldn’t even read the number I had just given them 2/3
