    @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.

  • iMeyrick Meyrick (@iMeyrick) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

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

  • 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

  • imandywelsh Andy Welsh 🍕 (@imandywelsh) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Don't worry you're rep is long gone! It was just the worst timing to rock up & block our extremely tight side road 👌🏻

  • Mountain1863 Shaun Mountain (@Mountain1863) reported from Biddulph, England

    @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

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

  • 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

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • paoloverdi Paul G (@paoloverdi) reported

    Hey @virginmedia I see all your responses to people in BR5 “reboot your box, do your self checks” total nonsense can you just admit the issue and tell us what is happening. No service all all since Friday

  • jlebars JLB (@jlebars) reported

    @virginmedia 2 days we’ve been out. You might be able to send fucknuts to space but you can’t provide wifi. Get that mulletted **** to stop wanking billions away so he can float in a plane and spend it on a: a broadband service that works and b: some customer service.

  • kenworthy39 SuperJCharity (@kenworthy39) reported

    @CrazyOcelot @Davep130278 @virginmedia Keep fingers crossed, I had to leave them due to continues problems!

  • C0mm0nSen53 ⭕CommonSense⭕ (@C0mm0nSen53) reported

    @virginmedia You MUST be joking. @virginmedia is hands down, the worst company I have ever dealt with. Roll on, end of contract day so I can leave. If anyone wants honest reviews of the company before you sign up, please message me.

  • bengaytten Ben G (@bengaytten) reported

    @RichardGrahamUK @CityFibre have cut through our Virgin Media cable when installing new fibre optics (they've also made a mess of the pavements in Tuffley but that's a separate issue). Will @GlosCC pay for a new driveway after reinstalling our service? Or will you make them pay?

  • bach_peter Peter Bach (@bach_peter) reported

    @virginmedia No Internet. Flashing green base light on router. Told no one available to help till Monday. Surely there is a solution?

  • Dave_Hutch80 David Hutchinson (@Dave_Hutch80) reported

    @virginmedia Yes. What are you doing about it and when will it be fixed. Not sure if you are aware but there is a global pandemic and people need to work from home. A 3 day outage is unacceptable.

  • WayneSmyth6 Wayne Smyth (@WayneSmyth6) reported

    @virginmedia Where are 'all of these alternate contact methods' located? Have you hidden them? I certainly can't find them via the link you provided. I can't find a customer service email address. I login to my account and there is no obvious option to send a secure message.

  • PeeturDee Peter (@PeeturDee) reported

    @virginmedia Just sort out your customer service. Covid has been going on since March 2020, stop using it as an excuse.

  • floatylol floaty 🇧🇬 (@floatylol) reported

    @7lxck @virginmedia i have been experiencing wifi problems recently
