    @virginmedia Yes I’ve checked it each time it has occurred and there’s no problem showing, I’ve also restarted and rebooted numerous times over the last couple of days and it still intermittently just stops working.

  • iwanevans
    Iwan Evans (@iwanevans) reported from Congleton, England

    @virginmedia Almost like you didn't read my original message... Your stock answer STILL doesn't ring true, just repeating the phrase I quoted in my original message to me again doesn't help one little bit

    Jacqui Riley (@cajriley51) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia I have been trying to sort out the issue off my password not working and the internet dropping out for over a week. I am getting passed around in circles. Please can you tell me how much notice I need give to leave and also give me an email for complaints please

    Andrea Day (@Andreaeday) reported from Biddulph, England

    @virginmedia Just also discovered that even though I was told I wouldnt pay for gadget rescue & then I was charged in error. Called last weekend to sort and was told it was sorted, I’ve just been credited £5 rather than the £20 paid for initial set up. I am SO tired of this. Please fix it.

  • HibbsA
    Anthony Hibbs (@HibbsA) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England

    @Paulout @BT @virginmedia I can’t believe how bad BT have been over this. Advisors just seem to want to keep you talking even after taking 20+ mins to get through and then do nothing for you. Proper fed up 🙁

  • PeachyBeechy
    cara (@PeachyBeechy) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia shocked and appalled by the rude and aggressive manner of one of your agents just now during an unsolicited sales call.

    @virginmedia absolutely awful service. So much for looking after elderly and vulnerable customers. Trying to sell services that are not needed or wanted.

    @virginmedia good to see you have added #DMAX at least just when going to cancel subscription due to lack of channels

    @virginmedia recently downgraded my broadband package, but my Volt package hasn’t been reapplied to my account. Can you help as O2 show it’s active, but no options on your help site that direct me to someone to fix.

    Daz (Oaky) Holdcroft (@dazholdcroft1) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @TerryBossons @virginmedia Since Covid no body answers phones any more crazy, shocking though that is @TerryBossons really bad costumer service and lack of information I had this with Sky very similar 2 very poor service providers with little thought of what’s going on in todays climate

    @virginmedia It was with regards to my services.. When I phoned about it the lack of professionalism was horrendous.. When I mentioned the lack of professionalism I was basically told what is your problem. Awful really

  • mbusby993

    Hey @virginmedia, please install fibre lines in Mow Cop (ST7) so I can get rid of PlusNet. Had to change from Virgin Broadband when we moved, and I never had a single issue. Sick of PlusNet outages now.

  • Andreaeday
    Andrea Day (@Andreaeday) reported from Biddulph, England

    @virginmedia <sigh> suppose I really shouldn’t have thought that you would provide a good customer service experience based on my experience of my recent dealings. Sad; Virgin Media used to be pretty awesome. Disappointed.

    @Virgin_Victoria @virginmedia 1hr and 10mins later after speaking with CS they have confirmed that they cannot help me with my matter and a ticket has been raised which VM will be in touch with me by SMS within 5 working days. CS loved talking too me when I signed up a month ago. #virginmedia

    @virginmedia @virginmedia I’m glad it sorted itself out as the customer service woman said id need a new hub which she said she’d order and would arrive Tuesday (6/8/19). Which it hasn’t. I’m glad I didn’t need it #virginmedia

    Jay Tungsvik (@Th3V1k1ng) reported from Bucknall, England

    @virginmedia Nope... back home after being out since 7am. And guess what... no virgin broadband... Still. I can't work. I can't stream. I can't log into the EA/STEAM apps to play games on my pc. Thanks for putting my costs up and dropping the service @virginmedia

  • argyledavros
    Dave Warrilow (@argyledavros) reported

    Massive problems with @virginmedia in #Southend. Broadband hasn't been working properly for over a week. Service checker keeps changing excuse, so you can't book and engineer. Tried calling on hold for half an hour then cut off. Shocking service.

    Why have @virginmedia cut off my broadband three days BEFORE I was supposed to cancel their shity service?

    @virginmedia hi trying to renew my package, but having difficulty getting in touch with someone to get a deal sorted ? can anyone help with this

  • MarionBrowne42
    Marion Browne (@MarionBrowne42) reported

    @keithapearson @virginmedia @MartinSLewis I think Yodel can challenge VM. They left a package at my neighbour no2, due to the layout of the close, no2 is nowhere near no3 and the photo of proof is also not no2 unless you are in the next close 🤬 An hour on a chat to discover that the driver is an idiot.

  • geofn3751
    Geoff Naylor (@geofn3751) reported

    @virginmedia intermittent broadband service in our area for the past week, told it will take another week to fix. Want to change service provider but told must pay a penalty for early termination (for a service they are unable to provide?). Great customer service.

  • WillVallely
    Wilson (@WillVallely) reported

    @virginmedia 90 minutes on the phone today no resolution. spoke to a manager who asked me to send my contract to them (why they didn’t have it I don’t know). The promise of a call back today to resolve, still not happened. Absolute waste of time .

  • JohnHawkes2001
    John Hawkes (@JohnHawkes2001) reported

    @Starlink I switched to Starlink and I absolutely love it. The performance has been incredible compared to the UK ISPs I’ve used. I was with Virgin Media, and Starlink beats it hands down for gaming and streaming. The connection is fast, reliable, and far more consistent than I expected from a satellite service. Another big advantage is that I no longer have to deal with the rip-off pricing and policies of many UK ISPs. And if you’ve ever tried leaving Virgin Media, you’ll know exactly what I mean, it can be an absolute nightmare. With Starlink, the whole experience feels much more straightforward and customer-friendly.

    @virginmedia How do I cancel my account? 🤔 So tired of sitting on a never answered 0345 phone number to talk to a representative. Very bad service.
