    @virginmedia 4th failed appointment. I’ve just called to cancel my order and instead I received a Delayed Activation email. My instruction was to cancel my order today. I do not want to deal with a company as useless as you, so do not try and be clever with me.

    Lord David Hurn (@2003mirror) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia I think the problem is that the time it is taking to get through or even an on line query, I thought speaking to you may help I do appreciate in the difficult times it can be a problem for us all

    Virgin media down in Oxford since morning Terrible for working from home All TV channels still frozen or pixelated Poor service for huge monthly bills for the service Need to change broadband and TV service provider

  • Louise63544316
    Louise (@Louise63544316) reported

    @virginmedia getting an email of works in our area on Wednesday! Services will be disrupted, this is not acceptable we work from home and need the wifi. Surely you could do this at a more convenient time? With people working from home this causes major problems

  • isabelfarrell
    🅼í🅲🅷🅴á🅻 🅵🅰🆁🆁🅴🅻🅻 (@isabelfarrell) reported

    @virginmedia This is after several hub resets and seems to persist as an issue whether on WIFI or hard-wired via Ethernet, it also seems to be worse at nights (~10pm-5am) making me suspect even more that the issue is not with my own hardware/software

  • orwell1983
    Orwell1983 (@orwell1983) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for the 8 hours notice that my broadband is likely to be down due to planned work tomorrow.

  • Smizz_x
    Emma Withers (@Smizz_x) reported

    Wondering if @virginmedia will be reimbursing me for the fee I'm going to have to pay to add more data to my phone, considering the only reason I've gone over my allowance is because our wifi has been down more than it has worked this month.

  • isabelfarrell
    🅼í🅲🅷🅴á🅻 🅵🅰🆁🆁🅴🅻🅻 (@isabelfarrell) reported

    @virginmedia Internet is working fine and have no issues with speeds the problem is random drops in connection, they seem to happen tens of times a day now and have done for the last couple of months, it's more of an annoyance than anything else as each loss in connection lasts only seconds

  • HenryPersephone
    Persephone H #AmazonDiscriminates ☹ (@HenryPersephone) reported

    @virginmedia Seems ok now. However, never going to hand out bank details and shouldn't be asked.

    @virginmedia Hi I've tried all of these but still have the problems with devices connected by WiFi. My cabled device is ok. It still only occurs between 10 and 4. Connected no internet is showing up more as well.

    @virginmedia I’ve chatted to your customer services and been told I will never be able to disassociate my email from my old account. Can you confirm whether this is in fact the case? @virginmedia
