    Me to the controller after reconnecting to @vatsim for the 5th time in one flight due to the virgin media outage.

  • moorland2 Moorland (@moorland2) reported from Endon, England

    We stopped paying @virginmedia the£90 for what in fairness was complete crap and have bought a Manhattan @FreeviewTV box and couldn’t be happier. We would never go back to virgin or sky for their overpriced TV service

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

  • andyvic7 Andy Picken (@andyvic7) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @drummerwhitey @northernsky67 @virginmedia Steve it was a last resort for me but other avenues were fruitless, I ended up getting a visit from an engineer , a booster and a reduction in my tariff after I told them I’d leave , normal customer service is dreadful, keep on pushing them

    @virginmedia Not even a DM asking for contact details to discuss further @Ofcom & @CISASUK have been informed and will be supporting with furthering my complaint. Hopefully my followers will see these tweets and avoid your black Friday sales 👌👍 even if only one person avoids the #scammers

  • FowldsSimon Santa Sime 🎅🏻🎄 (@FowldsSimon) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia why was I not informed of changes to my package. I’ve got the full house package which included kids tv. Name changed to maxit and now no kids Tv. Thank god we have amazon and Netflix which has kids stuff on. Don’t watch either on Virgin as it’s so slow.

  • Ashleigh93x Ashleigh Morgan (@Ashleigh93x) reported

    Cracking that @virginmedia has gone down in my area, no TV, no Internet can't even use my chrome cast to watch something off my phone 🙄😶

  • marydoll71 Mary McLeod (@marydoll71) reported

    @virginmedia 4.5 hrs later I got somewhere. Still feel agents were trying to sell me something when I'm trying to reduce costs and package in general. Customer service absolutely awful. No respect for your customers at all. Shambolic.

  • s26kel Kelly (@s26kel) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, I gave my 30 days cancelation notice and the lady on the phone said our services would stop at any point on 10th April. However they have stopped today without any notice? I need access for working purposes, please help.

  • aRuuuN7 Arun Bilz Mattu (@aRuuuN7) reported

    @virginmedia I’m having issues with my broadband I have been for the past week or so. It seems to be a constant issue I am having. When I speak with customer services I always get fobbed off and get told generic answers. Whilst working from home I need this resolved as it’s affecting my job.

  • yiddo71 Mark Gould (@yiddo71) reported from Rochester, England

    @BBCWatchdog can you help @virginmedia make it impossible to complain or resolve any issues the ultimate poor customer service!!

  • DiDavros Davros (@DiDavros) reported

    @virginmedia brutal customer service again. Signed up for £73 a month and you charge me £90. Waited 8 weeks for your complaints team to write to me and say ‘sorry’ and no mention of getting the correct price- someone needs to call me back ASAP. Fed up of being on hold

  • sirensandbells katy🌸 (@sirensandbells) reported

    @virginmedia Magic! Episode 6 is still not coming up though :( peculiar! I’ve seen A few others have had this issue too, is there a time frame for the bug to be fixed? :)

  • grantestevens Grant Stevens (@grantestevens) reported

    @virginmedia The engineer did make some tweaks that were supposed to help (which haven't) but did also suggest that modern Apple devices do struggle on the now aged Routers.

  • __TheSeeker__ El Damo (@__TheSeeker__) reported

    WiFi so bad you have to turn off your Amazon echos and phones rendering them useless, to get it to work to watch Netflix. Ladies and gentleman I give you virgin media. Utter ****

  • Ziko_90 Zico (@Ziko_90) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia it seems no one has the authority to actually do anything. Our area needs sorting out instead of fobbing us off everytime. We pay alot of money for this shocking service. But yes I will let you know.......
