    @virginmedia how do I cancel my contract with you. My broadband is constantly going down and for the price I pay your services are not worth it especially as i am on limited money. So I am looking at going to sky thank you

    @virginmedia No known issues according to the tests but when I call your support they always say otherwise. I clearly have issues.

  • kyle2tweet kyle2tweet (@kyle2tweet) reported from Bracknell, England

    @JackSheaFFC @virginmedia I know so if I’m waiting for a call back then OBVIOUSLY I’ve already raised a complaint 🤣 no common sense with this company!

  • smithsterbloke Gary Smith (@smithsterbloke) reported from Bracknell, England

    Called to discuss end of contract and to retain my business (especially during uncertain times and current my employment status) and help reduce costs. Told it’s going to cost £15 more than we already are on! SO MUCH FOR SUPPORTING US! DISGUSTED! @virginmedia

  • safdar Safdar Mustafa (@safdar) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Followed all you suggested actions, and still no joy. Also have a complaint open COM103973949, someone should have got in touch within 24h. 2 days and still nothing.

  • Cooper100Nicola Nicola Cooper (@Cooper100Nicola) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia I’m still waiting for someone to reply to me about my bill. I get cut off when I try to phone, the online complaint form receives an error on every submission, there is no chat functionality available and I can’t get a reply in social media. Please advise ASAP. Thank you.

  • K74Marti Marti Jerrard - K74 (@K74Marti) reported from Farnborough, England

    @lastdart @virginmedia I am with you on this one. They may have me over a barrel right now but when this is all over and normal service is resolved they can say farewell to this customer. If this is the way they treat loyal customer then #SirRichardBranson is in for a big expensive shock.

  • MichaelDooega10 Michael gorman (@MichaelDooega10) reported from Woodley, England

    @virginmedia Well thanks for that number which was a complete waist of my time !!!!!i shall be contacting sky for a quote tomorrow !!!! There customer service can’t be this bad !!!!!

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

    @virginmedia Is this related to this breach. If not that’s even worse and just says the service is really bad

  • perrycoke Kezza 🙃 (@perrycoke) reported from Twyford, England

    @virginmedia twice I’ve been on hold to customer service for 25mins only to get cut off. My broadband & TiVo hasn’t been working since 4pm. I’ve tried restarting the hub many times, checked the connections as well. I work from home & this is not what I need right now.

  • katesj1983 Kate (@katesj1983) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia It appears to be both..as both my WiFi and wired connections are being slow compared to usual

  • catch_cancer Catch Me If You Cancer (@catch_cancer) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia good afternoon. I've been on hold for 3 hours and been cut off twice. I'm a vulnerable customer and need to speak to someone

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

    @virginmedia I signed up to your service & order a sim only deal. I’ve been trying to order another one but can’t log in to my account. Keeps saying there has been a problem and try later. This is my first ever experience with Virgin. I can’t log in nor can I place my order #firstimpressions

  • StJamesofFleet James Snyder (@StJamesofFleet) reported from Fleet, England

    @virginmedia been on hold for 25 on a second call. The first disconnected. Problems with BB for three days and now the hub doesn’t even power on after an apparent update!

  • perrycoke Kezza 🙃 (@perrycoke) reported from Hurst, England

    @virginmedia I managed to get through to customer services in the end & now have an engineer booked for 2moro between 7am & 12pm. Going to cost me half a days work now.

  • mmaaccss Macsi (@mmaaccss) reported from Wokingham, England

    Wanted to watch YT on #VirginMedia to see TSMGO: Phantom of the Opera but dear it is down at the moment! Unacceptable!

  • katesj1983 Kate (@katesj1983) reported from Wokingham, England

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported

    @virginmedia The permits take 5-7 days to pass Virgin have known about the requirement since October. I was told 10 days ago by a contractor that Virgin hadn’t even assigned the work to anyone yet…. Poor

  • jeffharris_665 Jeff Harris (@jeffharris_665) reported

    @virginmedia With the main cabling on three engineer visits each one has failed to solve the issue by swapping to another hub 3 your colleague who I spoke to yesterday told me a hub 5 is the solution to provide a more stable connection I’d say that’s the last roll of the dice

  • kasakins carmel curran (@kasakins) reported

    @virginmedia Internet down since last night in D11. We were told it was due back at 12, then 2, then 3, then 6...can someone please give some accurate information.

    Looking for help in getting away from the robbing cheating bastards known as @virginmedia . Cancelling agreement and going for new broadband and fire sticks. All help and advice gratefully received.

  • PeterDo19421129 Peter Dowsett (@PeterDo19421129) reported

    @virginmedia Notice was given and this was just movies. You still have not supplied your terms and conditions Where does it say a customer who has been with you for over 30 years has to take out another contract when all they Want to do is remove the movies from package.

  • jeffharris_665 Jeff Harris (@jeffharris_665) reported

    @virginmedia The problem is outside of the house probably in the main cabling your last engineer who came to the house also wrote this in his notes considering this is the same problem with every hub 3 I’ve had it’s either you’ve got a massive issue with all hub 3s or there’s an issue with

  • cakeyb2 Timothy Cakebread (@cakeyb2) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks - how do I report total loss of service ?

  • BenDutt68589401 Ben Dutton (@BenDutt68589401) reported

    @virginmedia Very odd. Took out a new contract with you, then for my own reasons wanted to cancel the contract. Called up a week ago to cancel - apparently all sorted. Just had the notification to say the equipment will be delivered tomorrow 🤦
