  • LaurenceBoom Laurence (@LaurenceBoom) reported from Colne, England

    @virginmedia for the past 2-3 weeks I have had issues with on demand content, and the broadband. When I try to play a sky cinema film, the audio plays; but no picture. BBC iplayer is the same! The router is next to the virgin box, so dont understand what is going on.

  • dejkirkby 'Motivated And Confident' Mags (@dejkirkby) reported from Burnley, England

    @WilfSauce @WrestlingJebus @Archiebald_C I have Virgin Media, so haven't had to use TVPlayer personally, but I know of people who have and it's worked perfectly fine. I believe there is a rolling contract for the service of £6.99 after the event so make sure you cancel afterwards.

  • nobby1979 Nobby (@nobby1979) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia There seems to be a problem in the bd10 area that's effect the TV and internet when your engineerds are fixing the problem or so the automated voice saying but this has been going on since Friday

  • seanyseanysaeny Flying Officer O’Connor🇬🇧 (@seanyseanysaeny) reported from Silsden, England

    @virginmedia Yes, it’s rubbish. The service you provide is really poor. All you ever get told to do is switch of and reboot. Never works.

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

    @virginmedia **** off Over £100 !a month for broadband that drops very 5 minutes ******* joke of a company

  • Marsoma Marsoma (@Marsoma) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia Had no internet and TV service for over 24hrs now, can’t get through on the phone and it says the broadband issues are sorted on the service check online...it isn’t.

  • maggiehtfcmay M (@maggiehtfcmay) reported from Sowerby Bridge, England

    @andym1900 @virginmedia My phone goes onto emergency calls only when I leave the UK. Even happened when I went to the Islw of Man🙄 Never had an issue before signing up with them. Poor do.

  • dejkirkby 'Motivated And Confident' Mags (@dejkirkby) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia @btsport as a VM customer with the BT Sport add-on, can you explain to me the idea behind having the only reason I have the BT Sport add-on, UFC, having major events locked behind a secondary paywall and then still increasing the package cost. Not only double

  • Marsoma Marsoma (@Marsoma) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve done all that. There was an issue in the post code but it says it’s sorted now, but it’s not. Still nothing at all!

  • seanyseanysaeny Flying Officer O’Connor🇬🇧 (@seanyseanysaeny) reported from Silsden, England

    @SkyHelpTeam @SkyUK @virginmedia are quick enough to take your money but not so quick to help out when things go wrong...

  • liquidborn liquidBorn (@liquidborn) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia broadband has just gone down in BB12, I work completely from home so this is extremely frustrating for me. Please help. Router has been restarted twice.

  • dottydinosaur Dorothy Carr (@dottydinosaur) reported from Blackburn, 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

  • mikeyparkinson Michael Parkinson (@mikeyparkinson) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia I have and it says no issues... It was off this AM

  • SallyOdonnell Sally O'Donnell (@SallyOdonnell) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia Hi thank you however a good start would be you to know your client base. Some of us are just not tech savvy and being talked to like an idiot is not the way to win hearts and minds let alone customer loyalty. Felt very undermined and very disappointed.

  • deghunter dianeG (@deghunter) reported from Brierfield, England

    @virginmedia trying to work from home with regular weekly loss of broadband isn’t a service, it’s a disgrace. Will be leaving

  • IanCardy2 Ian Cardy (@IanCardy2) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    Service from @virginmedia is disgusting for existing customers! Dial 150 hold for 20mins someone answers but can hardly speak English then hang up when I ask for a new deal #customerservice try calling back & it’s busy so “sorry can’t help today call tomorrow 8am some of us work!

  • BeckGareth Gareth Beck (@BeckGareth) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia gone down in BB10 again

  • seanyseanysaeny Flying Officer O’Connor🇬🇧 (@seanyseanysaeny) reported from Silsden, England

    Just bought Rocketman from @virginmedia don’t waste your money. It won’t play or even open £13.99 wasted... #crap #rubbish #terrible

  • ScottShaqNelson Scott Nelson (@ScottShaqNelson) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia problems with my router and your tech help told me the cables must have come loose. I didn’t touch or move the router or the cables and your help got it back on by telling me that me tightening it resolved it. I never touched it. can’t you admit the router is faulty

    @ayeshaaxa @virginmedia maybe PDe will tell us that there is customer service here… when there clearly isn’t!!

  • DrFunkson AlDo (@DrFunkson) reported

    We've had outages for months, often days at a time. Once again, our internet is down. @virginmedia you are a joke. EVERYONE should avoid you because you're absolutely s**t.

  • joacie Jo C (@joacie) reported

    @virginmedia there's something wrong with The Good Doctor on your box sets feature. When I've tried to watch Season 3 episode 11 it showed me episode 19 instead. Major spoilers!! Tried to see if ep 19 would be 11 but it's also 19. Please can you fix this so I can watch it all!!

  • ImZella_ Zella (@ImZella_) reported

    @virginmedia My internet keeps going down for a while for no reason, last night it lasted for an hour can someone tell me what's going on? I've tried checking my connection and everything seems fine on my end.

  • s_d_j_h Reg Prescott NFFC (@s_d_j_h) reported

    @virginmedia broadband playing up for 48 hours. Off and on all the time. Website saying we have to wait another 23 hours before you’ll do anything about it. Will we be offered 10% off this months bill as that’s roughly how long we’ve not been able to use service we’re paying for?

  • efckate Kathryn Barnes (@efckate) reported

    @virginmedia Quick start but I want to cancel it

  • jakeprickett Jake Prickett (@jakeprickett) reported

    Gold star goes to @virginmedia for having a TV outage with no sign of resolution the night before the queens funeral…

  • WhiteMcrae Hayley McRae-White (@WhiteMcrae) reported

    @virginmedia are you seriously texting to say that there's a complete outage until Tuesday & so no TV, no interest etc, in a pretty important day for connectivity? I.e you are not able to watch & pat respects to an hugy monumental & historic event but you know, just deal?

  • WhiteMcrae Hayley McRae-White (@WhiteMcrae) reported

    @virginmedia is it your intention to cut off a whole part of London for a 24hr period in this pretty historic moment & not provide any rationale/customer support etc. You really are the worst
