  • RantinScot colin armstrong (@RantinScot) reported from Ochiltree, Scotland

    @sabele26 @kilt_walker21 @virginmedia Terrible treatment at the hands of Virgin mefia. Sorry for your loss.

  • stradaman65 Andrew Gilligan (@stradaman65) reported from Ayrshire, Scotland

    @virginmedia Hub is where your engineer put it two years ago, the layout of the house hasn’t changed so why then in the last few weeks since you replaced my hub am I experiencing issues. No more excuses please I need answers and results.

  • TheQwertmaster Colin Marr (@TheQwertmaster) reported from Ayrshire, Scotland

    @virginmedia called your customer helpline 3 times & cut off each time! Booster has packed in which means half the house has no WiFi (small bungalow so not exactly a mansion but need 3 boosters). How do I get a replacement issued while I find a more reliable WiFi provider.

  • KieranWMcclung Kieran McClung (@KieranWMcclung) reported from Troon, Scotland

    @virginmedia Hello Placed an order for your services yesterday, but due to unforeseen circumstances had to cancel this morning just wondering if you can confirm it’s been done?

  • BlueScareBot Duncan (@BlueScareBot) reported from Ayrshire, Scotland

    @virginmedia could I have a link please to cancel my service in writing?

  • stradaman65 Andrew Gilligan (@stradaman65) reported from Ayrshire, Scotland

    @virginmedia Thank you will do that , but my point is why has it gotten so bad in last few week , only since you replaced my hub! Same devices in same rooms are shockingly bad now. What multiple external factors now are you referring to ?

  • CurryInTurry DJ Nerja 🇺🇦 (@CurryInTurry) reported from Ardrossan, Scotland

    @virginmedia I know. However VM refuse to honour what they promise hence why I have involved ASA, Reading Trading Standards, CAB and Ombudsman. I've been a customer for many years. Won't be when contract up

  • brianmcluk Brian McLaren 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧 (@brianmcluk) reported from Springside, Scotland

    @virginmedia any plans on installing fibre in the Irvine area as @bt_uk clearly can't provide any sort of reliable service.

  • BigStoo92 Stoo (@BigStoo92) reported from Irvine, Scotland

    @virginmedia Upgraded to your M500 broadband package last week, was great for the first few days but now I’m not even getting 1/4 of my estimated speed. What’s the problem?

  • RossKilpatrick5 Ross Kilpatrick (@RossKilpatrick5) reported from Irvine, Scotland

    @virginmedia TV’s down and can’t get through to them on the phone, what a brilliant service!

  • yetiayrshore Yeti (@yetiayrshore) reported from Troon, Scotland

    @virginmedia swapped my dad’s VM box after finally replacing his TV (no HDMI on his old one). Error 7400. Only a few channels. Call centre closed. Online wants a 9 digit account number but our account number only has 8. Please help.

  • RossKilpatrick5 Ross Kilpatrick (@RossKilpatrick5) reported from Irvine, Scotland

    My @virginmedia internet is down, anyone else having issues?

  • thecameranerd Ian Devlin (@thecameranerd) reported from Irvine, Scotland

    @virginmedia @SkySportsBoxing this pay per view is an absolute Joke!! I keep getting error messages and signal drops. So happy I spent £26 on this.

    Another blackout on @virginmedia

  • ScottybooSb Scotty Bell (@ScottybooSb) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia takes yer money Doesnt provide a reliable service and thinks its acceptable to leave customers without the service they are paying for for 25 days...and still takes money from the bank

  • buckers43 Andrew Buxton (@buckers43) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia I've been a customer with you for 21 years and your customer service is not great, I'm paying through the roof for my package, the wifi is crap sometimes, your team has offered to take my bill down £20, but when I mentioned about replacing my hub, that will cost £35

  • g_mccutch G.M (@g_mccutch) reported from Hamilton, Scotland

    @virginmedia Fortunately, though unable to resolve the problem, the 4th person I spoke to didn’t feel the need to hang up on me or lie and has arranged an engineer visit for next week. All this after listening to the same hold music for a combined total of 83 minutes (3/3) 👍🏼

  • joheritage Jo Heritage-Harris (@joheritage) reported from Chesham Bois, England

    Just ended my internet contract with @virginmedia it was very much like communicating with a stroppy teenager. That plus the 48 minute wait on hold doesn’t make me feel like ever returning. Very poor customer service.

  • catherinealysh Catherine🐧 (@catherinealysh) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia Its affecting everything. I only use wireless cause I have no cable for wired connection. Dont expect your money on the 2nd👍🏼 our hub is just constantly flashing green and has been down over an hour and I've tried multiple things. Dont know why I used to big virgin up tbh

  • jillheartsnyc Jill Robb (@jillheartsnyc) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Trying to watch via catch up on #stvplayer via @virginmedia #tivo is nothing short of torture. Super slow responses loading / between menus, buffering and you can’t fast forward adverts.. really need to catch up with the times, customer viewing habits and expectation

  • sheradondublin Sheradon Dublin (@sheradondublin) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia It’s the same problem we always have with your WiFi, it’s patchy at best. Even when I’m standing next to the box

  • GergoRagalyi Gergo Ragalyi (@GergoRagalyi) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia Yes i did everything. Still no connection for nobody in the whole street. Sorry couse i couldn't fix it i am not engineer.

  • JClinton37 JC1980 (@JClinton37) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia Can someone answer the phone. Last week when I got rid of sky and got virgin installed you had someone on the phone to me in record time the last two days I’ve had issues no one available. I’m within my 14 days so I’m gonna cancel if u don’t respond properly
