    @vmbusinesshelp I am having problems with the virgin media business router that gets up to 350mbps. Keeps dropping out. Not a speed problem it’s the stability of it.

    @JohnnyDude1983 @virginmedia According to virgin, any more than 8 devices (including lightbulbs) and they won’t look in to issues and they would expect it to drop all devices randomly

  • MegzMakes_Music
    Meg Ben (@MegzMakes_Music) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia thieves. Overcharged me for a service I didn’t even ask for

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

  • BelvoirCchurch
    Jeremy Clarke (@BelvoirCchurch) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia how can you hike prices for existing customers, offer deals for new customers but are unable to answer your own customer service lines? Better deals with BT, why should we pay your extortionate price for terrible service?

  • MrLeesRamblings
    Lee Winter™ (@MrLeesRamblings) reported from Bournemouth, England

    I've never known a company swing their **** around about their broadband service like @virginmedia do, when the service is so bad Today, we have connected to disconnected to connected, every 30 secs or so repeating Fun when youre trying to work let me tell you

    @virginmedia Wireless devices. Been going on all morning (this happens regularly but usually better after a reset - not today). Tried following the advice to check for problems in the local area, even that doesn’t work. Literally nothing more i can do.

    @virginmedia help! we need to remove the automatic Home Screen as it’s confusing my mum who has Alzheimer’s, i can’t believe anyone thought it was a good idea

  • MarinaRobb
    Marina Robb (@MarinaRobb) reported

    @MelJanie @virginmedia Tellingly, the engineer who eventually came out (I'd already cancelled the service) said they still had to fit the back up line as they'd been fined £28 million by the regulator. Appalling customer service though.

  • jdonascimento
    Jenny Do Nascimento (@jdonascimento) reported

    @virginmedia I moved house on August 28th and Virgin has been unable to connect my internet service. It's terrible service; I've wasted hours talking to them with no results. #Sutton #England #SOS

    Virgin Media/O2 service event to **** when they started using the same type of call centres that Scammer PayBack would have interest in.

    @virginmedia Not my issue. Read post above.

    First-time drug possession may no longer mean prosecution. From today, adults caught with a small amount of drugs for personal use may instead be referred to the HSE for support. They must admit the drugs were for their own use and agree to take part in the scheme. More on Virgin Media PLAY.

  • helenxbedford
    Helen Bedford (@helenxbedford) reported

    @virginmedia Hello! I have an engineer visit booked but it’s not on the app. I’ve raised a complaint about that but my complaint isn’t on the app. I started a live chat and was asked to move it to WhatsApp’s, but didn’t receive any comms. How can I get any response from Virgin?

  • Munro78
    John Munro (@Munro78) reported

    @virginmedia Got an email saying my contract expires soon. Taking my payments from £73.50 to £137.50 - I can’t seem to find any new deals that would bring my payments down to what my original contract was. Unless I become a new member and you charge £49.99. This can’t be right?

  • eboders
    Ed Bodey (@eboders) reported

    @virginmedia hello! You recently sent me a new router but this now causes issues with some items that need a 2.4 connection. How do I resolve this please?

    @virginmedia 3 months of issues have forced me into this situation. I may as well be in a zombie apocalypses.
