    @virginmedia what have you done to the Sky TV app - its constantly buffering and showing error messages. Just awful service. Please can you get this sorted ASAP please.

    lloyd #utft (@111O1O1O11O) reported from Wallasey, England

    @virginmedia I only worked as a network Ops mgr for nearly 10 years, so I guess I wouldn't understand network issues and connectivity, really. Or service level agreements. Or teaching my grandmother how to suck eggs.

  • les_murray71
    Lesley Murray (@les_murray71) reported from Wallasey, England

    @virginmedia Yes got the update thanks, but not helpful receiving texts to say issue resolved, services been off for 14 hours now, any background to the issue?

  • davetarl
    Dave Tarleton 💙 (@davetarl) reported from Wallasey, England

    @virginmedia I want to cancel my contract as it is at the end. Twice now I have been kicked off the chat whilst waiting. This is unacceptable. I can't ring at present so the chat is ideal to run in the background. I just want to press a button that says end the contract!

  • NatashaVic
    Capitã Nat (@NatashaVic) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Can I speak to a human, please? It’s impossible to speak to anyone here. I paid for my bill via bank transfer more than a week ago and it hasn’t been registered. Phone service is not recognising my password and I can’t find a live chat.

  • andrewjmcgill
    Andy McGill (@andrewjmcgill) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia I have been without broadband all day, a day after you sent me a letter about price increases, an increase for what, even poorer service!!!!

  • laineypb2109
    Elaine Brown (@laineypb2109) reported from Birkenhead, 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

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia are an absolute joke. Was told to call back at half 6 and guess what? They’re shut! And again, no engineer visit. Getting cancelled 1st thing in the morning. Over a month of total loss of service, piss take. #avoid

  • CallyRaven
    Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @virginmedia 3 times in 3 weeks we are without internet! We are paying for a service we are not able to use! Are we going to be compensated for this?

  • Nicolajb87
    Nicola Bates (@Nicolajb87) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia can you help my mum and dad they have had no telephone line since yesterday. The internet also went off but that seems to be back on now. It’s vital we get the phone on asap

    @virginmedia The nightmare continues!!! Buffering is now a way of life for us. As is watching any programme on a streaming service in short two minute bites!

    Would love to be able to start work @virginmedia, but the Internet is down.

    @Alexarmstrong @GBNEWS Major UK mobile network operators like Vodafone, Virgin Media O2,Tesco Mobile don't make direct cash donations to refugee charities, but instead donate technological equipment, free data, connectivity packages directly to refugees & asylum seekers through partnerships.

    @virginmedia hi - I've done a few speed tests now that show I've got poor connection below what's expected (below 30mb) in my house but I seem to just go round in circles in my account to request a free pod and can't actually do it anywhere. Can you help please?

    Gaz Beech (@gazbeech) reported

    @littlemankay Hoping it can be gotten with virgin media too again (yes that's a real wifi network)

  • dearbrit_ian
    Brit Ian (@dearbrit_ian) reported

    @SandyofSuffolk You really are out of touch, unsurprisingly. Virgin Media getting fined £28 million for preventing customers from cancelling their subscription shows that this is endemic. Many businesses insist that you contact them via telephone to cancel, but they make it impossible to reach them via telephone. These days, many recurring payments are automated against your bank card so you cannot cancel it via the app, you have to cancel the actual card.
