    @virginmedia lnternet very intermittent. Router fault. But you won't send replacement so I am changing to Vodafone. Sick to death of the awful service I get from Virginmedia.

  • ClaretNick Nick (@ClaretNick) reported from Burnley, England

  • jademelia99 Jade (@jademelia99) reported from Cowling, England

    Trying to cancel my @virginmedia contract yet no one will answer the phone or the online chat service. Such bad customer service

  • btownofficial_ officialBtown (@btownofficial_) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @virginmedia why is it taking so long to sort out the fifa issue it’s *************** everyone who are on VM and want to play futchamps why can’t you give us a time scale on when it should be ready @NepentheZ @Itshaber @Marshall89HD

  • ryanchapmanx RC (@ryanchapmanx) reported from Blackburn, England

    How to waste my time 2019 - @virginmedia sort your customer service out :)

  • saeedahmed0 Saeed Uchiha (@saeedahmed0) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia your internet is awful! I’m not paying for a black box that flashes lights. Fix up

  • EmilyMc767 Emily (@EmilyMc767) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia It’s a media account, but it was more about the quality of the call. It’s not the way to treat a customer. Thanks

  • SharonBradbury Sharon Bradbury (@SharonBradbury) reported from Haworth, England

    @virginmedia We are a customer but this particular cabling just services the houses below.

  • MATTYB00SH 𝕄𝔸𝕋𝕋𝕐𝔹𝕆𝕆𝕊ℍ (@MATTYB00SH) reported from Burnley, England

    Switching broadband providers from Virgin Media to Sky is proving to be such a bad decision while trying to work from home these last 5 weeks. Multiple connection drops every morning. It's a poor situation when tethering to your phone data is far more reliable. @SkyHelpTeam

  • djbowers14 D J Bowers (@djbowers14) reported from Great Harwood, England

    Moved from @skytv to @virginmedia after 8 years and being a VIP customer with Sky. Poor service and a huge increase in price. Lost a longstanding customer. Now to try Virgin Media and see how this goes.

  • FunnyTrickster Vincent Brindle 🔶🌍🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@FunnyTrickster) reported from Burnley, England

    @jmtb18 @virginmedia @Virgin_Victoria Issues in Burnley too. It's been up and down like a yoyo. TV box light keeps flashing too.

  • SamMcCartney Sam McCartney (@SamMcCartney) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @Craig273 @virginmedia No. I just want to cancel sky sports as for £31.75 a month I don’t get the use out of it. I was lied to saying it would affect my package discount. I already get BT sport for free and if Amazon will be streaming more it’s pointless

  • ClaretNick Nick (@ClaretNick) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia Local fault and down until approx 3pm. It happens too often and its a nightmare for home workers like me.

  • mooseandme1 Moose And Me (@mooseandme1) reported from Great Harwood, England

    @virginmedia you’ve sent me an outrageous bill with £35 in charges that you said you were waiving. Non of your call centres are open (undertandably) I cant get text support & there’s no other help available. You are going to bill me £120 for a £50 service and I can stop you.

  • wesleyjodell Wes Odell (@wesleyjodell) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @PaddyTheBaddy @virginmedia Agreed. It’s terrible. Il be changing when my contract is up

  • ryanchapmanx RC (@ryanchapmanx) reported from Blackburn, England

    @geewelchx @virginmedia Mate I was on phone for a hour told them to shove their internet up their ass and going elsewhere Lmao their customer service is shocking so I did it back

  • dazzle961 andrew day (@dazzle961) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia I haven't been able to sign in to my Virginia media for years so complete waste of time Time to sack you lot off

  • Salma_abdx Salma Khan (@Salma_abdx) reported from Great Harwood, England

    @virginmedia They have improved but this is a regular issue now. This should be looked into, especially with the prices you charge for the services.

  • shadiebrfc_ Shadie (@shadiebrfc_) reported from Accrington, England

    Virgin media are so shit!!

  • SharonBradbury Sharon Bradbury (@SharonBradbury) reported from Haworth, England

    @virginmedia you have an exposed wire that goes down the side of my house and across my back garden so you’re able to provide a service to some houses below. I can’t find any written consent from the previous owners of the house. Major work will be starting soon...

    @virginmedia We just want to cancel our contract!!! Please help!!!

  • knoxylife Knoxy (@knoxylife) reported

    @virginmedia Ipad. I've tried all that. No issues with other apps. If I change the audio thing from audio 1 to 2 on the app, that sometimes fixes it. But on the whole the app is ****

  • _ASB_007 . (@_ASB_007) reported

    @virginmedia What do you offer then when a customer can’t get through, I guess someone will call when I cancel my direct debit then. Cheers

  • matt_greener Mat Greener (@matt_greener) reported

    @virginmedia day 2 after being advised of my 63% increase in my monthly payments & still advised too busy so phone back later ( when I can get thru!). Yesterday you advised call your team & they will help how ?

  • WrightySE2 nick wright (@WrightySE2) reported

    @virginmedia Still down day 3 but a couple of hours uptime to avoid compensation payments. Whilst people are forced back to office and have chewed up their 4g.

  • stef18881 Stef1888 (@stef18881) reported

    @JoanaValdez @virginmedia Cancel your direct debit so they can’t take any more money.

  • Abi_May_Jackson Abi Jackson (@Abi_May_Jackson) reported

    @virginmedia our wifi has been rubbish for few days now - have phoned, run the checks, reset machine, read through website and followed advice on there, etc. Pls can someone contact me to help or let me know if this is an area issue being fixed. Thank you.

  • _ASB_007 . (@_ASB_007) reported

    @virginmedia No I have given up calling. How about instead I try your text message service I try the Twitter service?

  • CollegeJocks CollegeJocks (@CollegeJocks) reported

    @virginmedia Your hands here need to be untied if you can’t call a customer then you should have direct messages enabled . Your a huge company in the communications business with terrible comms @LutzSchueler

  • Clare40897660 Clare (@Clare40897660) reported

    @virginmedia I have. No problems in area.
