    @virginmedia I've just received my price rise letter. Utterly extortionate! I will be calling you later to move providers. Your WiFi router is terrible as well. Perhapse my new provider will let me use the Internet more than 6ft away from the router?

    @virginmedia Just got a #SCAM call from this number 0800 052 1251 claiming to be Virgin Media, asked my name then put the phone down on me.

    Bill Butcher (@wcbutcher) reported from Kidlington, England

    @virginmedia the system is down in OX5 again. Also how are we expected to report a fault on line if it’s down. This is unacceptable 2nd time in 2days. Will the £50 compensation you offered for the 1st now be increased. It’s NYE so Plse get it sorted.

  • pepetideo
    CrankyGeek (@pepetideo) reported from Begbroke, England

    @virginmedia Yes.. After much back and forth to simply getting teh to acknowledge they had overcharged me for 2 months... But the issue is... You took my money incorrectly but the refund takes a 45 days. This is absolutely despicable. There is no reason for a delay like that

  • wcbutcher
    Bill Butcher (@wcbutcher) reported from Kidlington, England

    I had an issue with my @bt_uk tv box. I got through straight away and a replacement box was sent forthwith. I had help setting it up. Brilliant service. Eat your heart out @virginmedia

  • wcbutcher
    Bill Butcher (@wcbutcher) reported from Kidlington, England

    For a communication co @virginmedia aren’t very commutative. Their internet is down AGAIN. 3rd time in 2 weeks. I saw one of their men at a roadside junction box. That’s dangerous they should leave that to the experts. I am seriously thinking of returning to @bt_uk

  • Hoopsjackal

    @virginmedia I was promised a call back within 24 hrs on Saturday, still nothing. Problems with TV and Broadband, can u please arrange an engineer urgently

  • BrianCobbold2
    Brian Cobbold (@BrianCobbold2) reported from Bicester, England

    @virginmedia Their understanding of the English Language was so poor, they offered me a discount that was £10 a month more than now. That was without getting any up to date equipment.

  • Adamox2020
    Adam (@Adamox2020) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @virginmedia your service needs improvement ASAP. Shocking how many times it goes on and off throughout the day.

    @virginmedia It seems a little expensive and I was hoping for a reduction as being a pensioner and a customer of Virgin long before it was Virgin, namely. Comtel back.on the day.

    Anyone in the #Oxford area having serious issues with @virginmedia WiFi today? Ended up having to result to hot Spot from my phone to try and get work done. 😣

    @virginmedia no reply from your customer services number - I need a broadband engineer visit. How do I arrange this if noone answers the phone !

  • SprocketEtQuill
    Sam Greenland (@SprocketEtQuill) reported

    This week I’ve learnt a lesson. Resilience in AI Agents isn’t just about model provider Vs local hosting. This week @virginmedia accidentally cut my internet connection and it’ll be a week before they can fix it. I’m buying a 5G router so the baby monitors still work because that’s a safety concern! The router will also bring the Mac Mini back online so two of my three agents will be back. The third agent is on a laptop at work so they’re still up anyway. Resilience baked in was a good strategy, but it will get better still. There’s always room for improvement?

  • deanspread
    Deano (@deanspread) reported

    @virginmedia Well I’m at work now but it was working then going off for a couple minutes then back on all day. Then about 9pm went off for 20 mins then back on. Went on your page to check the service and it was saying nothing was wrong.

    Anyone having issues with Virgin Media TV in the NG16 area? Broadband fine, TV nothing working.

    @RogerGreen2009 @virginmedia I'm definitely going to be reviewing my options at the end of my current @virginmedia contract as they've been dreadful in terms of communication and help when the chips are down(day SEVEN of outage)😢 Sadly, I've only just renewed my contract... Thanks for the suggestions👍

    @virginmedia how inept is your DM service every time I’m asked the same things over and over week and no resolution! Hello SkyTv

  • shauny67
    Shaun (@shauny67) reported

    @virginmedia @paulpresenteruk Never use ring door bell over WiFi why cos only works on 2.4ghz & Virgin like all providers combine 2.4 & 5ghz together would need to split them & set a static IP address for the ring door bell on 2.4ghz. best option is ethernet to a POE switch for data & power

    @virginmedia #virginmedia are there any issues in the Orpington area? Broadband keeps dropping out. There's nothing on your status page.

  • COhanians
    Chris Ohanians (@COhanians) reported

    @virginmedia genuinely shocked and appalled by virgin leaving my 80 year old father in law without broadband for a week. No o2 signal so was uncontactable by family fo such a vulnerable adult. We live a couple of miles from him and we had intermittent broadband too. I went online

    @virginmedia I did, says all was working no faults or errors, so don't what else I can do, must be your end.
