  • Loafite 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?

  • lissaburns Melissa Burns (@lissaburns) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @tonight__we_fly @virginmedia Exactly this 👆🏻... at least long serving customers are apparently all treated equally... with poor service 😭

  • littlekatyb Katy Blay (@littlekatyb) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Hi! Our landline is being switched over to fibre on the 4th October, however our landline and WiFi hub are not on the same floor so we cannot connect them. Help please!

  • pilot_paul Pilot_Paul 🇪🇸 (@pilot_paul) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @Dom_Brown2406 @virginmedia Got through. They aim to fix the issue by 10:00

  • lissaburns 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?

  • TropicKarenB Total Tropic Karen 🌴 (@TropicKarenB) reported from Newbury, England

    @virginmedia No broadband service in RG14 and your service status checker isn't working. Is there a know issue? #virginmedia

  • pilot_paul Pilot_Paul (@pilot_paul) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia @joelycollinsx Hilarious. You get a link after ringing the number but the website is down

  • thebiggayreview The Big Gay Review (@thebiggayreview) reported from Basingstoke, England

    WiFi 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.

  • TheTomothy Tom Hogan (@TheTomothy) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia better have a good explanation for this but likely this will never be answered and all my years of bills and loyalty mean absolutely sod all. @bt_uk and @SkyHelpTeam Any good deals on broadband? And can you promise you wont vandalise my home & connection randomly?

  • pilot_paul Pilot_Paul (@pilot_paul) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @ianmills99 @virginmedia No internet in RG21 either. Cannot even get on to the service page on my mobile

  • Loafite 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

  • SimonMiller52 Simon Miller (@SimonMiller52) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia Hi yes I’ve done this numerous times and spoken to many people on chat and always been told I will get a call to discuss and I never hear back. I just want someone to look into why we cannot get it but it’s available on our road. Thanks

  • AfroChuck87 ¥ (@AfroChuck87) reported from Basingstoke, England

    Just spent 40 minutes being messed around with from @virginmedia to be then hung up on. Your customer service is atrocious!!!

  • richcon98 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!!!!

  • MatildaDr Joanne Wells (@MatildaDr) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia you used to be great, but now not so great. I lose my internet connection far more frequently now. There’s an error when I try and change my package online. I’ve phoned customer service now I have to call tomorrow as your systems are down for changing packages

  • CathyTVNews Cathy Alexander (@CathyTVNews) reported from Thatcham, England

    What's the problem @virginmedia ? No broadband all day in RG18. Work day wasted. Your signal check says "problems" but no updates. Can't get thro to customer service.

  • KieranDavey1 Kieran Davey (@KieranDavey1) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Hi - I'm in Rg22 and Internet has been down since about 11am - do you have an eta for when this will be fixed? Thanks

  • fayeharland faye harland (@fayeharland) reported from Woolhampton, England

    @virginmedia hi there not sure if you can help. We’ve been trying to contact my Uncle for a few days on his landline and it’s going direct to the message service. We’re getting quite worried about him and wondered if it’s possible to see if there’s a fault on the line?

  • tRed20 Tony Redmond (@tRed20) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Suddenly came back online yesterday afternoon ...so suggests there was an issue elsewhere. Thanks for your replies

    @virginmedia @virginmedia this is the response I got when I sent a message on text as you have just suggested. I despair with your total incompetence ‘If you head to the following link, it'll give you all the information you'll need to return your kit to us. Just scroll down to select…..
