    @TheO2 and @virginmedia @BBCWatchdog Be careful of this, they say they will send you a free SIM card. First off, it never arrived. Secondly, they rack up a bill baring in mind I’ve not used it. Then put it on your credit rating. So glad my three year contract ends with o2 soon.

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

    @sandraHandscom1 @Bates_No1 @virginmedia I am on the same, worst customer experience ever. It is impossible to get on hold on the phone, they webpage is limited on options to cancel their service. #neveragain

    So @virginmedia seems to have gone down across the whole country simultaneously. Will be interesting to see what the root cause is.

    @virginmedia Hi I downloaded the latest Update for my Apple Phone & ever since then when i click on my Virginmedia Hub3 my phone says it’s connected to the network but has weak security I’ve never known it to say that before😱

    @virginmedia tried logging on to my isa account, asking me for authentication code, request it, no txt coming thru, ring the 20 mins then told there shutting, & will ring back tomos. They Admit there’s a prob, OUT IT ON YOUR WEB THEN, don’t have thousands ringing up 💩service!

  • StuPCrook
    Stuart Crook (@StuPCrook) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @virginmedia I’ve called them and got nowhere - it’s a simple request that should be a simple form - not an hour wait in the phone minimum. You don’t publish the number, it isn’t in the help screen and the chat function times out! #useless #poorcustomerservice

    @virginmedia Any idea when the broadband issue for ox145 will be fixed. When I ring 150 I get no actual update, just that you are working on it. I work from home and rely on this. Ta. :)

    @virginmedia Finally got through to your helpline! Went through the same things the online help said and finally told local issue! Still no boosters available and I have to ring you apparently to check when they are back in stock!!! You can’t ring me to tell Me he said??#poorcustomerservice

  • wcbutcher
    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.

  • MilesGomme
    Miles Gomme (@MilesGomme) reported from Cumnor, England

    @virginmedia why did you bother sending out the email about opting out of having your Wi-Fi settings changed, when you go and do it anyway!! I had to reset and turn off all the changes you made! If it isn’t broken don’t fix it!!!

  • roxanneselby
    Roxanne Selby (@roxanneselby) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    Virgin Media. An astonishingly **** company, even by the standards of the UK telecoms industry. You are an absolutely ******* appalling company. You utter ******* disgrace.

    @vdaybabygirl85 @rayquannnnnnn @virginmedia Keeps dropping out? Which VM Hub do you have? I've just got upgraded free from the hub 3 to hub 5 and so far haven't had any drop outs. Give the customer services a call and ask for an engineer (free) and when they come, it's ifs the hub 3, they'll change it for free.

    @virginmedia couid you explain how the renewal person couldn't help me cancel ? told me to ring someone else? said she was on her own no team no manager to talk to?

    @virginmedia I am trying to resolve a billing a dispute which has been paid over month ago but is still showing as unpaid on your systems impacting credit scores and everything that goes along with that. No one can help me get this cleared. Missing payments dont respond to emails

    @Alexarmstrong @GBNEWS Major UK mobile network operators like Vodafone, Virgin Media O2,Tesco Mobile don't make direct cash donations to refugee charities, but instead donate technological equipment, free data, connectivity packages directly to refugees & asylum seekers through partnerships.

    Evri have got to rate alongside Virgin Media as Bloody a awful excuse for a business!

  • MrSonicAdvance
    Sonic (@MrSonicAdvance) reported

    @virginmedia What I found frustrating, was that if I trimmed features from my package, the monthly price would go up, and if I added additional features the monthly price would go down. Utterly perverse! The whole process left me frustrated and bemused. Lovely people on your team, though. 👍

    @Ewan_Huzami @downdetector Down in East Surrey since yesterday too. Virgin Media app says service won't be restored until 11th August. Luckily I'm out of contract so I'm switching to Starlink

    @andyburnham You might like to add VIRGINMEDIA to your list of organisations that do everything they can to prevent customers ending contracts. They are THE WORST.
