    Martin Travis (@lurkinhead) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia Okay, but with respect, the problem is your call centre say different stuff every time, which inevitably bears no resemblance to reality. Later, VM deny those conversations ever took place and there is no written evidence to back up what was agreed. That's what I am after here?

    Kevin Dudson (@Duddydudson) reported from Wigan, England

    @NigelJTurner @virginmedia Same for me, I can cancel or change my package by the 28th of march then get a 19% increase on my new package on the 1st of April. Only had my contract 5 months.being **** Turpind here!!!

    @virginmedia Mine has just gone down now. I can’t ring via the virgin phone because the phone is connected to the hub.

    @virginmedia Trying to make a complaint - signed up to a deal I clearly asked not to be. Your website doesn’t work and can’t get through on the phone. Can someone please dm me with a way to speak to someone urgently

  • LindzDDub
    Lindz Devine (@LindzDDub) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp I've never had this much issue as I have had today. I'm plugged in on ethernet, I've reset my hub, and checked my area and there is no issue at all. My WiFi is working from my hub but yet its booting me out of Destiny 2 and not just that but the chat parties on PS5 itself

  • elisabethhilto4
    Elisabeth Hilton (@elisabethhilto4) reported from Lowton, England

    @virginmedia 15% increase, don't think so mate. I'll be in touch via phone shortly with a cancellation notice. So much for long serving customer loyalty

  • timmycooke
    Tim Cooke 🇺🇦 (@timmycooke) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Both wired and wireless. We've had 8 engineers out, a rewire, new hub and still endless drop outs. Was told finally it was an upload issue from the amp that supplied the box on the street. But still we're having issues. The 150 number is joke, make it simple!!!

  • RebekahP1nk

    @virginmedia soooo what's wrong this time?? You are just about up the cost to astronomical amounts and now the broadband goes down again ..

    @virginmedia Hi, will this continued investment mean finally getting signal in my area? It’s a central area and the signal is awful. Thanks

    BigBaldChris (@BigBaldChris2) reported

    Another marketing call from @virginmedia despite having asked a number of times to be removed from their list. When I said I now wanted to make a complaint, they then hang up… - is this how #dataprotection works? @ICOnews #removeme

  • Smeod
    Sharon (@Smeod) reported

    @BernardThresher @virginmedia @virginmedia has the worst customer service ever. They make you wonder whether you'd rather live without broadband! Appalling. I also had 5 hr convo. Nothing was resolved. Made a complaint in writing. Resolution after 10 day wait was to call customer services!!! Case closed. Grr

  • DMO_GB
    DMO_GB (@DMO_GB) reported

    Utter incompetence at .@virginmedia movers team. Each person u speak to says previous person made a mistake but THEY can fix it! They don’t. And the next person says the same thing. Again & again, no help and no fix @ofcom

  • Fullmet4lKitty
    KITTY 🌿 (@Fullmet4lKitty) reported

    @virginmedia But I get that every day. And because it’s okay again when it reaches 24hours it resets. Last night it said the link was down for maintenance so I couldn’t even try it. Honestly I’ve not had one full day where there hasn’t been an issue so far. It’s horrendous.

  • oh_so_boatie
    Jessica Boatright (@oh_so_boatie) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia Yes, issues showing. I've had to go to a cafe to work - so now as well as lost hours of income I'm down bus fare and refreshments so that I can use the the WiFi.

    @virginmedia your service checker reports no broadband issues in my area. My router confirms I have no internet access. I’ve called your helpline but I just get told to switch the router on & off, then the call ends 🙃 how am I meant to get this resolved if I can’t talk to you?
