    @virginmedia what’s the point of asking me to text when I’m ready to set up the new hub if your going to deactivate the old one before I’m ready!! Good job I have unlimited data on my mobile network!!

    @virginmedia time now 11:14pm and certain channels still aren’t working, things said they have recorded when they haven’t, search function also still not working code c133. I think a refund is due to a lot of customers 👎🏻👎🏻#virginmediadown

    @virginmedia i get it. Captalist country and therefore a fallacy to beleive we dont need you. You social media support responders are in jobs etc But really, VM broadband is a joke. Bring back telewest and the more personal service of old. #virginmediadown again

  • samanthadoe1
    Samantha Doe (@samanthadoe1) reported from Canvey Island, England

    Having real problems with our broadband dropping out regularly @virginmedia. Any known issues in the SS8 area?

  • TheSugg
    David Sugg (@TheSugg) reported from Gravesend, England

    @virginmedia morning, your text service seems to have stopped talking to me and we’ve spent another week with no service. Who can I speak to?

  • katie_2521

    @virginmedia been struggling for days with home WiFi. Tried to contact you guys but cant find a number Please help

  • maharrison
    Mark Harrison (@maharrison) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @virginmedia Thank you I am going to try again via sales as managed to get through last night but was informed I need to speak to construction and they were closed. Complaint ref was/is C-030920566 Thanks for helping Mark

  • MarkPashby
    Mark Pashby (@MarkPashby) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia still no connectivity at all for me in SS0. Running a successful ISP should also surely include upda ting customers when issues arrise. Internet connectivity in this day and age is a utility, not a nice to have. #virginmediadown

  • AViTSCJ
    Scott Jackson (@AViTSCJ) reported from Gravesend, England

    @virginmedia why is it when you request cancellation of service via phone and getting cut off mid call , then sending and email and also trying to chase via web chat which I also sent my request for cancellation and then move out two months later . They keep the account open 🤬

  • GoonerGrizzly
    grizzly_gooner (@GoonerGrizzly) reported from Thundersley, England

    @virginmedia I have spoken to your CS team about raising a complaint and have been told that the complaints procedure is for existing customers. As I am yet to go live, I am not considered a customer and therefore have no where to go.

    @virginmedia Hi, done the reboot and pin reboot but still dropping out drastically. The speeds I was getting to the speeds I am getting is really bad

  • sinozza
    Simon Norris (@sinozza) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia I spent over an hour on the phone yesterday trying to get through to a customer service rep only to get cut off. Still waiting to hear on WhatsApp and been on hold this afternoon 45 mins and still holding???? Whats going on??

  • Cod49ers
    Marc Tobin (@Cod49ers) reported from Grays, England

    @virginmedia A thousand times. On a chat all day yesterday and was promised someone would call me, no one did. To say this is the worst customer experience I have ever had would be an understatement.

  • TheSugg
    David Sugg (@TheSugg) reported from Gravesend, England

    @lobsterpants66 @virginmedia Yep. Engineer never turned up but logged it as he turned up and couldn’t get a reply. Lying b’stard.

  • Cod49ers
    Marc Tobin (@Cod49ers) reported from Grays, England

    @financialombuds can I get out of my @virginmedia contract with no costs due to their complete failure to provide the service I pay for and refuse to deal with my issues

  • MLong94

    Imagine my shock. Virgin media telly and internet down, AGAIN. **** *****

  • wonky1961
    Penny Rolfe nee Acres (@wonky1961) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia You are no longer my ISP due to your incompetence. Also there will be a lawsuit pending due to the fact I almost died from pneumonia with pulmonary oedema and sepsis later going into stage 2 respiratory failure. Your useless service is unacceptable.

    @Ofcom Virginmedia now there is Terrible company. A fine won't do anything To them. I tried getting rid of Channels only to be told I have to sign up to a New 24 month contract. Corrupt as.

  • turkish_187
    Turkish_187 (@turkish_187) reported

    @Ofcom The worst experience I have ever had was signing up for @virginmedia and then trying to extricate myself from them. Took months and months and hours and hours of my time that I won’t get back. So glad to see this news. The irony was they never even connected me. Shambles.

  • Ailsa56202286
    Ailsa (@Ailsa56202286) reported

    (Part 4/4) Meanwhile, I was receiving constant calls demanding payment and threatening late payment charges. No customer should have to fight this hard just to leave a broadband contract. SHAME ON YOU, @VirginMedia.

  • jamesrbarber
    James Barber (@jamesrbarber) reported

    @virginmedia my internet went down earlier, so I booked an engineer visit for Weds. Internet has come back but I'm unable to cancel the booking - when I click the link on my confirmation text it says I don't have a booking. Someone please contact me.

    scott (@scott2328446402) reported

    @BBCBreakfast Good, had nothing but trouble with @virginmedia disgusting company. Pulling ***** tricks when I wanted to cancel. Renewed my contract without my consent & told me I had to pay over £2000 to leave. I hope the go bump!

  • BonesE78
    Mike B (@BonesE78) reported

    Good!!!! Can you fine @virginmedia for their crap broadband keep dropping out!!!

  • DiscooDave1969
    Disco Dave (@DiscooDave1969) reported

    @BBCNews @virginmedia I am disappointed the fine is not higher. Let this be a warning to anyone thinking of moving to them. They will offer a great 12 month deal and then double the price in year 2 and making it extremely possible to cancel.

    @virginmedia your customer service sucks. do something about it ffs

  • AddickAddict
    Gary Naylor (@AddickAddict) reported

    @virginmedia @DevilHatman You've just been fined £28m for deliberately dropping calls, leaving people on hold, not putting cancellations through etc etc. This is absolutely disgraceful and time the Government closed you down for your continued abuse of customers.

    Liam (@kestrel89B) reported

    @itvnews To be honest it is so difficult to speak to a human at @virginmedia I'm not surprised anyone could cancel their contracts. #virginmedia
