    @deborabora @virginmedia I am so glad I left them in 2017 having suffered poor internet for over 2 years. Constant issues when I was in BH6.

  • LaurenSTompkins

    Any idea @virginmedia why for the last couple of weeks my virgin box has been recording programmes completely randomly. Programmes i never watch nor ever recorded? This has happened to four different shows this week alone?

    Just had to put a 2nd call into @virginmedia this afternoon to sort out the problem they caused from this mornings call to them, which was to attempt to sort out issues from a previous call to them 🤬 New TV aerial installed next week and once @CityFibre are running, VM are gone!

    @virginmedia what do we do when I’ve contacted you 3 times , cut off & have no mobile phone service , rubbish internet , done all diagnostic checks ? Husbands mobile the same !

  • tragic_velvet
    The Ginger Bear (@tragic_velvet) reported from Bournemouth, England

    Called virgin media last week. Part 1 Me - I'd like to cancel please. VM - you can't, it can only be a minimum of 60 before your contract ends. Called back today (less than 60 days) Me - I'd like to cancel please VM - I can see another agent has already cancelled.

  • ScotHayes_
    Scot Hayes (@ScotHayes_) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia you guys are shocking. Honestly can't wait to cancel my contract with you guys!

  • TrishaLewisTalk
    Trisha Lewis (@TrishaLewisTalk) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia - the state of my intermittent broadband has been shocking all week and again this morning it is down. Seriously affecting my work and expect compensation. What's going on?

  • Philip_AnthonyB
    Philly B (@Philip_AnthonyB) reported from Poole, England

    @notorious_twub I was with @virginmedia for several years, no end of problems. And their customer service is shocking. I moved to @VodafoneUK for broadband and they have been fantastic. I won’t go back to VM.

  • gxyred
    Jared (@gxyred) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia FYI you guys have done some work in the BH8 area last week and since then our WiFi drops off all the time and is very slow. Pls can it be resolved.

  • oncefallenangel
    Emma Louise (@oncefallenangel) reported from Bournemouth, England

    Our virgin media internet is so awful at the moment that I continuously have to turn the WiFi off on my phone. Surely that’s not the point of home WiFi 🙄

  • chefmike56
    Michael Darracott (@chefmike56) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia It's now come up as a problem says fix by 11.30pm let's hope so I cant afford a single loss of earnings.. #virgin you let me down 23 times in 5 years #virginmediadown again

  • YoungJambo
    Jamie Will (@YoungJambo) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia Also, MOST of your customer service representatives are rude and don't know what they're talking about. Did you know one of them told me to dial 150 for CS, even though I clarified that I'm NOT a Virgin Mobile customer? "Yes, yes this still works for you sir." Nope.

  • mghowes
    Matthew Howes (@mghowes) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia @LFCTV can you fix the audio please its unwatchable right now.

  • LaurenSTompkins
    Lauren Tompkins (@LaurenSTompkins) reported from Bournemouth, England

    Hey @virginmedia all of last night and now this morning my home broadband is not working. I’ve reset the router several times not made any difference.

    @virginmedia You were "looking into it" a couple of months ago and nothing happened. I can get a better deal and service by going back to Sky as a new customer.

    @virginmedia @rayquannnnnnn Is there a problem in the wallsend area with broadband?

    Intermittent signal once again. Router trying to find the signal without any success - it's literally a waiting game now @virginmedia

  • finn33
    Caroline (@finn33) reported

    @virginmedia home WiFi down again. No update on engineer time. Just that they’re fixing the problem. How can we get this sorted. Seems a bit of heat and your WiFi goes down. What exactly am I paying for?!

  • pauldewolfe
    paul d (@pauldewolfe) reported

    @virginmedia I’m now speaking to your web team, who have found a better offer that your renewal team couldn’t. It’s too late now, though, as I want to cancel.

  • Scrumpyjackfan
    Craig (@Scrumpyjackfan) reported

    @denchaser @virginmedia I left after 25 years with them, unfortunately their customer service is really bad. I’ve spent hrs waiting and dealing with them only on a couple of things but jeez it’s hard work.

    Andy Wright (@ncfcandywright) reported

    @virginmedia why does my online account have a button telling me to look at my renewal offers but when I click on it I get 'customer exclusion' in the address bar and get told to call? 70ish days until my contract ends
