    @virginmedia because of virgin media disconnecting us from broadband am missing out all on demand catch up tv on my sky q box and another thing is am paying for all that so money down the drain.

  • faizalmom Faizal Momoniat (@faizalmom) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia How can you cancel my contract whilst i am living in the house and take word from a stranger over the phone surely you have broken GDPR

  • itslakeyyy Kieran Lake (@itslakeyyy) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia No issues reported. A reboot of the hub seems to do the trick however it’s an inconvenience doing that 4-5 times a day.

  • AshArmstrong9 Ash Armstrong (@AshArmstrong9) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia Seems OK now. It was Prime Video that was the problem. I think they couldn't handle all the football live streaming very well, and something had to give. Thanks 👍

  • alisonllove1 Alison Love (@alisonllove1) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @simonrim @virginmedia I had good service chatting via Twitter but elsewhere absolutley useless

  • corfu1957 Paul Roberts (@corfu1957) reported from Leicestershire, England

    50 mins talking to an engineer who then couldn't connect the new box and now have to have an engineer come out to sort it @virginmedia you need to get your customer service sorted

  • MatthewWalne Matthew Walne (@MatthewWalne) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia The usual, turn off and turn on again. No solution to the phone line not working though

  • Deborahbham Deborah Davidson 🕷 (@Deborahbham) reported from Leicestershire, England

    1. @richardbranson cannot tell you how incensed I am at the poor service I have had since signing up to @virginmedia - no one can help me sort out getting a good and consistent internet signal across the whole house (which @bt_uk could) - amazed how the new technology is worse.

  • El_Lloydie Gareth Lloyd 🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇬🇧 (@El_Lloydie) reported from Leicestershire, England

    Had enough. @virginmedia service in the past 18 months been truly shocking. Made a complaint last month and still not heard anything. Now trying to get hold of someone and doing the Krypton Factor would be easier! Sort yours (and my) s**t out Virgin Media!

  • thecornstar Andy Corney (@thecornstar) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia Sorry no, left you years ago - never again, you we’re far better when you were NTL

  • SteveRiches4 Safetypenfold (@SteveRiches4) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia router not working, of course not your equipment has to be mine. Why have to wait 48 hours to phone again if still not working. It’s arrogant to think we know nothing about IT.

  • MatthewWalne Matthew Walne (@MatthewWalne) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia I’ve tried but can never get through on the phone. Done a few web chats though

  • thecornstar Andy Corney (@thecornstar) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @BicramAthwal @virginmedia Awful company, truly abysmal customer service.

  • AshArmstrong9 Ash Armstrong (@AshArmstrong9) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @Aarrontongue1 @primevideosport No. Virgin Media. Not had any issues like this before. Fortunately I'll be at the Leicester v Liverpool game tonight so I won't need to put up with pixelation/buffering. Stupid time for a Boxing Day game though!

  • Rossi2k Ross Wilcox (@Rossi2k) reported

    @virginmedia I have done the text thing twice now and been put through to the “right department” each time. And each time promised a manager will call me back but call never happens. Why will doing this this time be any different? Why can a manager just not call me as promised?

  • thira93 حرا (@thira93) reported

    @KamranKhalid02 @Akhund_Bilal1 @bt_uk Idk, maybe this area is not great for WiFi 😓 but honestly we had virgin media before and it was never this bad!

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported

    @virginmedia And that's your problem, garbage like that link, I was on the phone for 1 hour on Wednesday to your "support" 20 mins was telling me I haven't phoned since 2011 then the phone went dead, after 1 hour no phone call back though @virginmedia crap, crap, crap, "technical" my bottom.

  • classicm Mike Moody (@classicm) reported

    @virginmedia having real problems with catch up. 6 weeks now. Both boxes saying network connection fault and can’t watch any catchup. Constantly dropping out. All other services ok. Help!

  • IsMiseMarcas Marcas (@IsMiseMarcas) reported

    @nordyteacher @BOD80 Oh god Virgin Media was just AWFUL in D3. But up in Derry at the moment, and VM is fantastic up here!

  • katz404 Cathy Briggs (@katz404) reported

    @GaryWBacon @virginmedia They have been a nightmare!!! Called them four times about speed. Apparently the speed they advertise only applies to devices attached directly through ethernet cable, wtf. I thought buying a new router might be better but I might just change too. Who you change to?

  • MrAngryPantz Andrew Fortescue (@MrAngryPantz) reported

    Hey @virginmedia! I arranged a TV360 upgrade. Got a text the next day cancelling it. Phone support said it wasn’t cancelled. Then got another email this morning saying my package had changed and has reverted back. What’s going on please? I’m getting tired of going from one person

  • yvonnehart90 Yvonne (@yvonnehart90) reported

    @virginmedia i am moving home and need to cancel my contract!
