Bowlesy (@Chateauneuf64) reported from Wokingham, England@virginmedia OK guys, could you ask your team behind the scenes to turn my BB signal up just a tad, you know, enough so it actually works? As your putting your prices up would be great to experience what I'm actually paying for now! Thanks

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!

kevin cox (@kevin_cox9211) reported@virginmedia I need help the call centre person isn't helping and won't listen. Can't get on to account a replacement box that was ordered is now not been ordered.
-
Ruth Payne (@ruthmpayne) reported@virginmedia the WiFi in Edgbaston / B16 has been down for 48 hours now. Tried finding out what’s happening but call centre was useless. When will this be sorted??? 48 hours is ridiculous
-
Becca Jane (@BeccaJane182124) reported@virginmedia not impressed with customer service! As a loyal customer for over 5 years I was looking to upgrade to the sports package with Netflix and WiFi. I was refused the £52.99 deal as that is “only for new customers”. I was told I would need to pay £130 for the same deal!
-
Aaron Hudson (@AaronHudsonUK) reported@virginmedia @TelfordMemories Mine went down last night and despite it coming back on today the speed right now is 146mbps when I pay for a gig.
-
Mandy H 💙 (@ShropshireMandy) reported@virginmedia why is your customer relations so bad? I have spent 3-4 hours on the phone trying to get a refund after you carried on taking payments after I terminated my contract. Please get it sorted.
-
Phil (@philbreadin) reported@virginmedia how come my bill has jumped from £55 to £72 mid contract? I understand it's April and a small price increase is expected but £17 is taking the mick. With the issues I've had lately @sky is looking more tempting.
-
Reformed Prisoner (@formerprisoner_) reported. @virginmedia are the most useless, care-less, let down of a company in existence. If you are considering going with them for broadband. Please don’t. Their technicians do half a job, cancel a thousand times and their customer support is outsourced to some foreign country.
-
Cam (@Snickerboi95020) reported@TheMangoDemon @MrDalekJD I think it’s virgin media fibre connection - 2.5gbps up and down, it’s like £70 tho I think
-
idontlikepeas (@Wrossy) reported@virginmedia seriously what is wrong with your internet? Every single day there is some issue with the internet in my house!! Yet you are taking money from us monthly for a service that has daily issues. Utter joke!!!!
-
Stewart Hawtin (@HawtinStewart) reported@virginmedia Any update on this? Really disappointed with the service provided here. I pay a fortune a month for this!!
