    @fingers_terry @virginmedia I hope so. I’d hate to have to cancel my subscription.

  • Tommy_Doyle Tommy Doyle 💙 (@Tommy_Doyle) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia Hi, had a call this morning allegedly from you saying my internet service was compromised and malware was being downloaded, then proceeded to ask questions which I refused to answer. Was it you lot?

  • katiewoo26 katie lee (@katiewoo26) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @virginmedia After spending 1 hour on hold, I gave up. I just want to order a booster for my broadband! Please help!

  • joniread68 Jon Read (@joniread68) reported from Great Baddow, England

    Any @virginmedia customers out there who’ve been landed a price increase - just ring them on 03454541111 and the automated service immediately offers you a £4.50 pm discount for 6 months = £27 of savings. Bit of a weird way of doing business but obvs hope many just suck it up. 👍

  • MrsDyer25 Laura Dyer (@MrsDyer25) reported from Great Baddow, England

    @virginmedia So what can be done to improve the technical issues we are having? Could it be our equipment?

  • owensirons93 Andrew Owen (@owensirons93) reported from Corringham, England

    @virginmedia any reason why you still haven’t fixed our phone lines? Been down for 3 months now so I’ll be expecting a reimbursement. Also expect a reimbursement due to the fact your failing to supply the minimum download speed

    Yet again I’ve been on the phone to @virginmedia for about an hour - still can’t help me and now the tv doesn’t work !!! Time to cancel the contract and go back to sky I think - absolutely horrendous installation process and customer support !!

  • Waynebe66 Paul Wayne (@Waynebe66) reported

    @virginmedia It came on but it’s down again #virginmediadown

  • gemgemw Gem (@gemgemw) reported

    @virginmedia @SteveHolt_ Fab customer service I see. No offer to help look for a solution!!!

  • RJTWhitfield Rowan JT Whitfield (@RJTWhitfield) reported

    @virginmedia what is going on with your internet service? From other tweets on here it’s obvious something is wrong but I’ve called 5 times and I’m under the impression I’m not being told the truth. One person actually told me “don’t worry about it” I need the internet for works

  • taylorcowlin Taylor (@taylorcowlin) reported

    @virginmedia This link doesn’t help me at all I’ve been through all that... plus it doesn’t let me book visits? I’m not sure about replacing equipment I need a technician to come and have a look to see what the problem is.

  • 4Viewers 4Viewers (@4Viewers) reported

    @dinogoldie Hi, we need to know who provides the signal so we take a look into this issue - is your signal provider Sky, Virgin Media, Freeview, Freesat etc? #B99

  • Annabannana5 Anna Viola (@Annabannana5) reported

    @virginmedia we are still waiting for WiFi to be switched back on....24-48 hours you said, it’s now 72 hours. Help?

  • ant_917 Anthony (@ant_917) reported

    @virginmedia Just spent 45 minutes again, been cut off when passed through the customer relations team. This is shocking.

  • TheRealWilbo Wilbo (@TheRealWilbo) reported

    @virginmedia I’m slowly losing the will to live with my service from you, I posted a fault on your website 4 weeks ago, not even got a response so far !! I’m on the phone now and still waiting to speak to someone to be fair it is only 40 mins so far but I’m hopeful😟

  • pippwill pipped (@pippwill) reported
