  • sam_joy Sam Joy 🇺🇦🇬🇧 (@sam_joy) reported from Havant, England

    @virginmedia I'm no longer with VM and haven't been for about 2 years. Won't have a current email address to be able to sign in to my old account.

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    Oh it's broadband price hike time again!! You can almost guarantee @virginmedia will try and increase the broadband prices by more than the CPI figures, then drop it back down as soon as you phone up and mention the word "Sky" EVERY. BLOODY. TIME. #MartinLewis

  • DIZZYDJC Daniel John 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺 (@DIZZYDJC) reported from West End, England

    My internet is painfully slow tonight. Checked my router and it's not that, it's the internet itself. What is going on @virginmedia ? Your status says no faults but I can assure you there is. I am paying for 1GB bb and so far only reaching speeds of about 2.25 mb- explain??

  • FinolaSloyanPR Finola Sloyan - Brand building PR for B2B (@FinolaSloyanPR) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia DAY 3 WITHOUT SERVICE (Broadband, Phone and Television): I’ve received a text to say the technician who was to visit this morning has been cancelled😳 Received another text that service should be back at 4pm - it has taken Virgin 3 days to detect issues in my area??

  • BA5H3R27 BASH (@BA5H3R27) reported from Gosport, England

    Jesus your internet is **** @virginmedia on off on off on off reset it …. Takes 5 mins to boot on…. On off on off. We certainly won’t be renewing with you.

  • DIZZYDJC Daniel John 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺 (@DIZZYDJC) reported from West End, England

    @virginmedia It's both. I have been doing some digging and it's the upload speeds. They are not getting anywhere over 2MB /sec which is not good enough. It has been very slow over the last couple of days

  • FinolaSloyanPR Finola Sloyan - Brand building PR for B2B (@FinolaSloyanPR) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia Another text from @virginmedia ‘great news, your service has been restored’. IT HAS NOT BEEN RESTORED, no change.

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia Well... @VodafoneUK also invest around about the same amount of money in their network, and they haven't increased the prices anywhere near as much as you have. And I'm always connected whenever I'm outside the house. No issues with connectivity whatsoever.

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    You know @btsport, it would be nice to watch the match in UHD, if only the UHD channel wasn't so jittery. 🤦 Whoever's problem it is, whether it's @btsport or @virginmedia, sort it out!!! #RANLIV #ChampionsLeague

  • RobNeedhamFR Rob N (@RobNeedhamFR) reported from Havant, England

    @virginmedia seems your network has issues again as pages are not loading or slow to load in PO9 again. Yes I have turned my STB on and off again!

  • FinolaSloyanPR Finola Sloyan - Brand building PR for B2B (@FinolaSloyanPR) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia Your lack of communication has and still is horrific. And i am fast losing confidence in @virginmedia - how can i plan a working day while having to chase the Supplier of my comms equipment. Issue was to be fixed at 8am, but now … who knows!😡

  • FinolaSloyanPR Finola Sloyan - Brand building PR for B2B (@FinolaSloyanPR) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia an explanation would be good. To be left Monday 30th, Tue 31st with no communication by you is not good enough. I need reassurance by your company that you know how to fix this! The customer shouldn’t have to be chasing the vendor - not good service, Virgin Media.

  • FinolaSloyanPR Finola Sloyan - Brand building PR for B2B (@FinolaSloyanPR) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia what is happening in postcode PO5 - no internet since yesterday mid day and your help messages don’t provide a solution. How many times are i going to read ‘try again in 5 hours’ ??!!

  • Jf0rdFord James Ford 💙 (@Jf0rdFord) reported from Gosport, England

    @SkyHelpTeam I will be making a complaint now - requesting a refund as it’s beyond a joke now. @virginmedia got any good deals for new customers?!? #timetoswitch #beenloyalfor10years

  • FinolaSloyanPR Finola Sloyan - Brand building PR for B2B (@FinolaSloyanPR) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia Not according to the @virginmedia link, ‘looks like there are problems in (postcode) etc’ so what you say is not the truth! Perhaps you can communicate with your comms people to be on the same pg? Also,communicate with your customers. I am doing all the work to know what’s happ

  • FinolaSloyanPR Finola Sloyan - Brand building PR for B2B (@FinolaSloyanPR) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia Oh for God’s sake, @virginmedia , I’ve already done this 3 times, the latest time last night with your technical support, the same person that arranged for a technician to come this morning, then cancelled because you erroneously believe the breakdown is resolved.

  • AndrewByng Andrew Byng (@AndrewByng) reported from Waterlooville, England

    @virginmedia still having problems with virgin broadband and need it fast for my business two days slow and intermittent P06 1DH not fit purpose will cancel by the end if carries on been superb but someone has done something 😡

  • RobNeedhamFR Rob N (@RobNeedhamFR) reported from Havant, England

    @virginmedia No telephone service in PO9 very poor Virgin Media on a day people want to call their families!

  • enkeli85 Clare Old (@enkeli85) reported from Southampton, England

    Disconnect from @virginmedia on 28 Feb. Still get charged a month bill on 1 Mar & been told I'll both need to wait 45 days for my refund & that it will be credited the same day. Great help for budgeting & doesn't help that customer service chat couldn't understand the issue 🙄

    @virginmedia - DISASTER- my broadband has just gone down. Can you confirm if this is an area issue. I'm in N17FZ, Islington, London

  • klekky 𝓛𝓮𝓮 𝓚𝓮𝓷𝔂𝓸𝓷 (@klekky) reported

  • ashley_pash ash (@ashley_pash) reported

  • jordach30826066 jordache (@jordach30826066) reported

    @virginmedia the customer services horrendous. Been told I would be transferred to cancellations but then just been hung up on twice.

  • WakeUpUkffs Grace (@WakeUpUkffs) reported

    @virginmedia Right, once again 15 hours no internet. This is getting beyond a joke now. Since February this has been going on, over 10 times ranging from 6hours, 12hours, 15hours!!! Why in the hell am I paying £45 a month for? The customer service is diabolical

  • PyxiePants Holly (@PyxiePants) reported

    @virginmedia After being told there definitely wasn't an issue in this area, the service status says there definitely is and that you're on the way to fix it. Looks like the estimated fix times mean that's it work wise for the day.

  • AliBarclayUK Alastair Barclay (@AliBarclayUK) reported

    @virginmedia drop off in speeds today. Have checked connections, rebooted hub and run speed tests - currently getting between 1 and 4 Mbps. Your site says service status is OK after running online tests. Can you help? Is there. Known VM speed issue in Southern Scotland? Thanks

  • Petemck1 Petemck (@Petemck1) reported

    @virginmedia AVOID, AVOID,ABSOLUTELY AWFUL 💩💩💩

  • UnderwoodCherry Cherry Underwood (@UnderwoodCherry) reported

    @virginmedia None. The issues is that YouTube had to re-issue replacement SIMS as the ones you originally provided didn’t work across all phones. Rather than wait for new ones to arrive, you have disconnected them!! So now we have no network at all! #WorstNetworkProvider
