    @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!

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

    @virginmedia We need this sorting, as there are 3 of us working from home, involving video meetings. How do we get in touch with you to sort our services out? Our TIVo box is also slow to respond and on-demand isn’t working, due to internet problems. Help. Now. Please.

  • SpaWellbeing Spa Wellbeing (@SpaWellbeing) reported from Wokingham, England

    What’s wrong with Virgin Media? Unable to access my emails for several days now. Virgin say they’re working on it but the problem’s still not sorted. Is anyone else suffering this acute inconvenience?

    @virginmedia Just says “No known issues” but surely no area issue faults that lasts 2/3 months

  • iRamble0 iRamble (@iRamble0) reported

    So I tweeted virginmedia about some issues I was facing. A few moments later I got a DM. Almost got hustled by a DM asking me for my details. Looked like a virgin media account but turned out to be a burner account. Absolute hustlers.

  • iucounu iucounu (@iucounu) reported

    @mscaldwell_dop @AlexThorne1 @virginmedia Are you in North London? Mine went down the other day, came back for a bit, then fell over again yesterday

  • johneford John Ford (@johneford) reported

    @virginmedia pt 3 They give a number for calling but as soon as you get through you are told that they are receiving a large number of calls and it could take an hour to get through. The music offered during that hour is terrible in my view. I do appreciate music tastes differ.

  • markthecrow Mark Crow (@markthecrow) reported

    @virginmedia That I can’t do but I have issues with connection even when the speed is high. I’ve reported this and chatted and even put a complaint in. The level of help I received has left me to leave. Thanks for the offer to help but. It’s too late for that now.

  • pompeyhedge ed francis (@pompeyhedge) reported

    @libertyglobal why do you keep buying perfectly good broadband suppliers, around the world, and completely breaking them? Purely for your shareholders pockets? When are you selling #VirginMedia so all their customers can have a service that actually works, and staff to help?

  • johneford John Ford (@johneford) reported

    Hi @virginmedia my dad is having great difficultly closing his account with you. Here his email. Who should he sent it to? Yesterday I wasted virtually the whole afternoon trying to cancel my Virgin account.

    @virginmedia I'm trying to order a wifi booster but can't get through on your phone lines or find anyway to do this online. Can you help?

  • DadCentrist1 A centrist dad (@DadCentrist1) reported

    @virginmedia They missold me an upgrade and sent me the equipment for it. I don't why they have disconnected me. I have given up phone calls after 2 hours on hold so far today. I can give you an account number or a postcode if you really want to help.
