Jon Bond (@JobbyOvy) reported from Basingstoke, EnglandPhoned @virginmedia tonight to cancel, as my price was going to £74 from £55 a month. Best they could offer was £60 a month even though as a new customer it is currently £50 a month! I was told if they offered their current customers those prices, they’d go out of business...
-
Melissa Burns (@lissaburns) reported from Basingstoke, England@virginmedia can you help? We’ve been struggling with internet for last 3 weeks. Now dropping on daily basis and devices not connecting. Spent 1.5hrs talking on Thurs... was promised a call back yesterday but received nothing and still major issues. Can someone pls call?

Tony Phillips (@Loafite) reported from Basingstoke, England@virginmedia Thanks @virginmedia perhaps you should be making the effort to get me to stay as a customer. Hopefully @SkyHelpTeam will be able to offer me something more cost effective
-
Richard Conway (@richcon98) reported from Thatcham, England@virginmedia I have to say @virginmedia are one of the worst companies to contact if you have an issue. Their message system is a joke and accounts a shambles. @skyuk is looking a better prospect!!!!
-
Melissa Burns (@lissaburns) reported from Basingstoke, England@virginmedia down in #Basingstoke RG21 - call to find out its out between 10am and 3pm due to network improvements. Surely such a significant outage he should come with prior warning - how to damage #CX ! Could have been a great #CX if communicated well...
-
Tony Phillips (@Loafite) reported from Basingstoke, England@SkyHelpTeam hope all is well, @virginmedia have just increased my bill again for broadband (£32 increase per month in the last 10 months, disgraceful) are there any deals for a Sky customer for broadband?
-
Paul Bullock (@pBullox) reported from Thatcham, England@virginmedia moved house today, supposed to have been reconnected but you have a problem you knew about for days. Arrive and tell me not today mate! I’ve gotta go get data from #Vodafone now. After 20 years, it’s like my wife leaving.
-
Paul Bullock (@pBullox) reported from Thatcham, England@virginmedia No real explanation, just he can’t do it today. I was surprised he already knew of the problem but didn’t stop his installer coming. I spoke to lots of folks today when I called, no one could give me an idea.

The Big Gay Review (@thebiggayreview) reported from Basingstoke, EnglandWiFi went down in the middle of watching Halloween Ends. 4G signal also unresponsive. Stuck on very slow 4G. Virgin Media say it’s possibly a hardware fault and want to send someone Monday. No. I’m not waiting 72 hours with no internet. I’ll implode.

-
Hopper (@154PinkChairs) reported@virginmedia why is the sky sorts streaming service not working?
-
Chris Long (@afcwomblelong) reported@virginmedia Ok so no sky sports+ available to watch.. just spent over a hour and 20 minutes on a web chat queue that no human turned up to help. Now seeking compensation as I cannot view what I paid for. Please advise.
-
Andy Nicholls 🫧⚒️✝️ (@andy_nicks60) reportedSo @virginmedia after 15 years as a customer for broadband don’t deem you worthy of a recordable 360 box if you want to use them as a sole provider instead of Sky and only offer a streaming box that won’t work if your internet goes down. #AwfulCustomerService #Sky
-
doozerlyn (@doozerlyn) reported@virginmedia... All replies about red button issue are 'working on getting it fixed'..... Sky boxes working fine.... Been a week now.... Bit of a joke aren't you?? What you going to do to make your customers happy cos empty apologies isn't doing it...

Johnny Mac (@JohnMac19059272) reported@Smallworth_xx @virginmedia Is it possible to go back to a satellite dish as all these Internet based have problems with buffering. Gone all for years now.
-
Liz Vine (@lizzyfmant) reported@virginmedia can you please update when you plan to solve the intermittent service issue in the ME8 area. Really fed up of my internet cutting out daily. Engineer yesterday says it’s an open issue however it’s been going on weeks. Surely you should have resolved this by now?
-
Colin Morty (@cmwba) reported@KevvyJ63 @SkySports @virginmedia I agree, every season is the same! Might as well have the reception from an empty baked bean tin! Inept service.
