    @virginmedia Perhaps try kerpying your internet service 'up' for 26mins. Currently you're up to 17mins past the hour before it fails. Keep practicing.

    Hi @virginmedia, I'm trying to pay a bill through your app, but every time I try to pay, it keeps saying ”session has timed out” and has done for the last couple of days. Before this, I've never had an issue with it but it's not happening this time. Please advise. Thanks.

    @virginmedia Broadband in GU14 is up and down like a "****** draws". I pay for 350 Mbps but am getting much less than that. I've rebooted and reset my Hub 3, please sort it out!

  • OutdoorDaveGB David Bruton (@OutdoorDaveGB) reported from Reading, England

    @GBRChris_A @virginmedia Not good! Unfortunately my experience of their Customer Service/Technical support when required a couple of years ago was frankly lamentable. Lots of promises absolutely zero action/solutions

    @virginmedia Been trying for 2 months to get in touch with someone at Virgin Media to discuss the service you provide but always told your busy or “waiting times are longer than usual”. How do I actually speak to someone?

  • ShimmeringLigh4 Shimmering_Light (@ShimmeringLigh4) reported

    @virginmedia @KELLYAPPLEBY3 I will be sending a letter recorded delivery to cancel my contract and please do not add insult to injury by adding late fee cancellation when I have done every thing in my power to contact you

  • Phillip87218048 Phillip Littlejohn Button (@Phillip87218048) reported

    @Mohamma43861577 @TalkTalk Yes with anyone but virgin media unfortunately. They have said I have to cancel. Thanks though Mohammed

  • lisaitsurbday Lisa-Anne Glavin (@lisaitsurbday) reported

    @virginmedia recorded 24 hours in police custody both nights. Episode 2 recorded the Bake Off Professionals instead and on Catch Up episode 2 is down as episode 1 and vis versa. This will mess up the show for other people

  • Toby_Fletcher Toby Fletcher (@Toby_Fletcher) reported

    @virginmedia we are having to reset our box every single time we want to use the @All4 app - really irritating, is this something you can fix? All other apps working fine...

  • zigzpeakz zaine (@zigzpeakz) reported

    @virginmedia why is your internet service so slow, im barely getting 10MB download or upload speed

  • laudaball laudaball (@laudaball) reported

    @virginmedia 3 calls on my iphone but none registered a ring tone / alert so conclusion can only be that the caller put the phone down before it could ring. Not once but 3 times - guy called Kevin in the Executive team working for @LutzSchueler

  • evedb_1 eve (@evedb_1) reported

  • Karen65780903 Kaz (@Karen65780903) reported

    @thedogman_918 @virginmedia I found chatting to them through there WhatsApp was easier and got answers quickly, but I have now changed back to Sky after issues with my billing.

  • mibilawal Mohammed Bilawal (@mibilawal) reported

    @virginmedia In the morning we called, your system was down to cancel. We called in the evening and waited 1 hour the lady called Ema said it's not her department and told me to call the same number again? Waited another hour and went through. We paid extra for last 10 years £59.25 for 100mb
