    Helen Pinkers (@Barchetta66) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia So that’s it. We’re still no closer to solving this issue than we were when it went down at the beginning of the week. Absolutely dreadful service.

  • Khaled_Miah1
    Khaled Miah (@Khaled_Miah1) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia very disappointed with the upgrade package in being offered by Virgin. You are offering a loyal customer to upgrade to Gig1 for £51.15 whereas new customers get it for £45 p/m. Where is the loyalty?

    @virginmedia I’m pig sick of spending my time on the phone to not get a resolution. I’ll have another web chat and hope someone can finally see this issue out. Thanks

    @virginmedia Well I guess as it went down Wednesday afternoon and if all goes well back up tomorrow we will automatically qualify.

    @virginmedia I managed to pay it in the end but please could you fix your website…there’s some weird redirecting happening when trying to either view or pay your bill. London/Broadband

    @virginmedia can you please answer your phone as I want to cancel my contract. Or give me an alternative number to contact you on.

    @virginmedia So much for assistance? I talked to you to get help returning equipment for 2 months & you assured me I won't be billed due to your incompetence! I have just been billed. Sort out picking up your equipment!

  • ferdi_rezvan
    Ferdi Rezvan (@ferdi_rezvan) reported from Blackheath, England

    Your website for checking status is not loading. Can you verify if there are known issues with broadband in the se3 area. Thanks @virginmedia

  • drewerydyke

    @virginmedia On & off service; 151 helpline says ‘intermittent’ issues in London, N16. What can I do?

  • sam_batty
    Sam Batty (@sam_batty) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Just spend over an hour on live chat/phone. Your service means we’ll be nearly two weeks without internet!

  • squeakytoy
    Steven Peterson 🏳️‍🌈 (@squeakytoy) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia I’ve now had to call again myself because the end of the business day is here and nobody ever called me back. What’s the resolution when nobody ever calls when they promise to?

  • kevinri00714924
    kevin richardson (@kevinri00714924) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia So someone fraudulently set up an account in my name. Because I don’t know the password to something I didn’t set up I’ve now spent 5 hours on the phone to 5 different @virginmedia reps and a debt recovery letter. Never use @virginmedia #badcustomerservice #stress

    @virginmedia Yes, but didn’t say any problems. It’s intermittent.

  • Merse2506
    John Mercer (@Merse2506) reported

    @virginmedia Hi I have been a VM customer for many years and have complained about my box s8nce you switched to a WiFi version. I get "buffering" and channel failed messages constantly. This happens and a low bandwidth message appears with tbe graphic even when the channel is still working.

  • Fpityyyy
    Fpity (@Fpityyyy) reported

    @virginmedia shut up all ur gonna do is boost my signal in reality it does fck all

  • Seanster1984
    Sean Milroy (@Seanster1984) reported

    @virginmedia why are you telling people to get a booster after upgrading to 360 when a box is connected to its router through Ethernet cable? Ethernet connection is better. Wi-Fi is a luxury. People are paying over odds for service but you want them to pay more? Get a grip!!

  • eripley8
    James Munro (@eripley8) reported

    @virginmedia @mobily_uk Can you drop the smiling emoji Virgin. It really is absurdly patronising and shows that you're just laughing at us rather than genuinely trying to help

  • Redveee
    Shaun Todd (@Redveee) reported

    @mobily_uk @virginmedia I renewed recently with a few clicks online cause I had to replace my Tivo box for a TV 360 box. I was out of contract and paid £104 for 2 months, new bill for same service is now £64, less than what I was paying in contract. After 12 months it goes up to £69.

  • briavelsjon
    Jon Pitts (@briavelsjon) reported

    @mandychoccy @virginmedia Sounds potentially like a comprehensive set of fixes. Ideal solution is to have a tech onsite when you have the problem. Easier said than done, though.

  • iadnan9
    Addy (@iadnan9) reported

    @roisinecarr @virginmedia @virginmedia Reported an issue 2 months ago and only just received a response. The advice given was unhelpful, careless, and frankly unprofessional. The issue is still ongoing with Now being told it could take another 28 days for a follow-up. Completely unacceptable and a waste
