    @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?

    @virginmedia I'm sick of explaining this again & again - see previous tweets & msgs to VM. It isn't even noted - yesterday 2nd line support looked at my ticket & said I'm "not receiving any emails" NO NO NO! Just emails with etickets attached, even tho get non ticket emails from same sources

    Phil Stacey (@PhilStace20) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia It about moving house. As Virgin is unavailable at the new residence and the move is only temporary I was told in two separate calls that I could ‘freeze’ my account and now it’s come to it it seems that I have to keep paying whilst not receiving any service or buy myself out!

    @virginmedia all week had total Broadband outages and down again now (past hour). Received a text from VM with link to follow (self help) and guess what, I need Internet to access! Trying to WFH just impossible. Every hour we have issues.

    @virginmedia Broadband down again, 2nd week in a row. Had one day of service and stupidly canx Engineer due next day and hey presto back down we go again. 1 week wait for engineer, 1 day of BB, and now earliest slot for Engineer +1 week. Buyer beware. Typing whilst 50 mins holding with VM!

    @virginmedia well done - you fix the issue then it’s broken again so back to no services again and of course your lines are closed so no way of calling

  • Cptredwaffle
    Captain_red_waffle (@Cptredwaffle) reported

    @virginmedia 3rd street-wide outage this year in LS6 tonight. Surveyors have confirmed my property is infra-locked with zero Openreach/Altnet access. Virgin holds a total monopoly here, yet the local street infrastructure is failing. Shambolic really, I need this escalating.

  • The_real_Jambo_
    Jambo (@The_real_Jambo_) reported

    @CliveR39 @virginmedia @Ofcom I lost tv service before the world cup started for 16 days, I was told I would recieve automatic compensation but didnt recieve any discount, had to raise a complaint and they told me they would offer £20 as goodwill gesture because I didn't have total loss of service.

  • Yespleaseroux
    KSP (@Yespleaseroux) reported

    @virginmedia is utterly ****. As soon as I can ditch it I will and go back to Sky. Such rubbish service all round.

  • LisaPatten2
    Lisa (@LisaPatten2) reported

    @virginmedia nearly 24 hours with no TV channels and the fix time is 28th August. What am i supposed to do for the next 8 days? What exactly am I paying 150 quid a month for?

  • AmyDonalson_X
    Amy (@AmyDonalson_X) reported

    @virginmedia please explain to me how after my package ran out and I renewed with a different package in JULY it’s taken 3 phone calls, 5 online conversations and 4 different bill amounts for September/October to still have no resolution or idea how much my next bill will be??

  • KookieG62
    Gwen Maynard (@KookieG62) reported

    @virginmedia Absolutely shocking service . Broadband and TV down since electrical storm on Thursday morning. Not fixed despite you saying otherwise. You keep cancelling the engineers to come to my home.
