    @virginmedia And the sum total of welcome texts I received during my 7 night stay in Jamaica was 189. I never moved from the same hotel. I often got 4-8 texts whilst sat at the same restaurant table or in my room. @virginmedia get your act together

  • Aldehulme David (@Aldehulme) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia I need to speak to somebody regarding a broadband problem without you running a check that will cut me off the internet. How do I get past this to speak to a person?

  • MCR_ADM Adam🍺 (@MCR_ADM) reported from Stockport, England

    Been on a live chat to Virgin Media since 9:30. WFH joys. Not much work has been done. But got my bill down. #CozzieLivs.

  • PaulRegent1 Paul Regent (@PaulRegent1) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia no internet available in Bolton - must be an outage as, although coverage is very poor, it isn’t usually this poor!!

  • gbmcfc GLENN (@gbmcfc) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Well you find I'm cancelling my contract with yourselves, hope you go bust, your customer service team is a shambolic embarrasment. Loyalty works both ways.

  • HollowayAlec Alec Holloway (@HollowayAlec) reported from Stretford, England

    @virginmedia is unbelievable that our Internet is so poor, trying to contact someone via phone on numerous occasions waiting for over 45 minutes to speak with someone. Still haven't been able to get through to anyone.

  • OldhamBradd Bradley Smith (@OldhamBradd) reported from Oldham, England

    Not another outage? #virginmediadown #VirginMediaoutage @virginmedia

  • Scarlet0Pimp Liam 🐀 (@Scarlet0Pimp) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia hello, can you please fix the broadband in the sk11 8aa area once and for all. It was down yesterday afternoon, just gone down today and down last week. Clearly there is some Faulty hardware that needs replacing. How can people work from home with broadband like this

  • WCONNOLLY2512 William Connolly (@WCONNOLLY2512) reported from Manchester, England

    @beverleyturner @virginmedia Virgin Media had gone ****. Poor broadband, crappie TV channels and half don't even work.

  • Rayzor74 Ray Morgan. NHS💙🇺🇦 (@Rayzor74) reported from Stockport, England

    Good start to the day with @virginmedia informing me my monthly bill is increasing by £15/month and I have until the 17th of April to decide on my options. That is £180 annually. Having been firstly a Nynex customer and a Virgin customer since the takeover think it may be time

  • dantheman8t5 Daniel McDermott (@dantheman8t5) reported from Dukinfield, England

    @virginmedia any idea when the outage will be sorted? I have work to do today

  • thechilledpanda Mike Chilton (@thechilledpanda) reported from Bramhall, England

    @virginmedia Unbelievable, you've sent me a dongle to connect a landline too the broadband on the 6th , so the phone line isnt going to work, though not much help on 150 as they abruptly cut you off. Website is also down.

  • jigglepuff01 totallydonnamarie (@jigglepuff01) reported

    @virginmedia why do both of your "customer contact" numbers go dead as soon as you ring them?

  • JodieHamson Jodie Hamson (@JodieHamson) reported

    @HannahDrakeUK @virginmedia We’ve generally been happy with Virgin but a price rise at this time (and out of contract so promotional prices has also ended) makes me think about moving it’s just the disruption of service that would be an issue at the moment

  • strider1947 michael fletcher (@strider1947) reported

    @virginmedia STAY CONNECTED, WHAT A JOKE..THERE IS NO CUSTOMER SERVICE DUE TO 5% PRICE HIKE THEY HAVE SWITCHED OFF ALL COMMUNICATION i SUGGEST YOU CANCEL YOUR DIRECT DEBIT IF THERE IS NO CUSTOMER SERVICE.

  • MikeFrostWriter Michael Frost (@MikeFrostWriter) reported

    @virginmedia since July I’ve had issues getting strong WiFi throughout my house. I’ve tried moving the router, using your boosters and even having the router replaced but nothing is working. What do you suggest?

  • rao_rakhesh Rakhesh Rao (@rao_rakhesh) reported

    @virginmedia Well who does? Can you find out? 3 days is a long time for Internet to be down for!

  • bonbon0692 Rosie malbon (@bonbon0692) reported

    @virginmedia it is impossible to get through to your customer service team to talk about my account. No numbers work and no one ever messages back on chat. Disgraceful service.

  • NillySutton Nilly Sutton (@NillySutton) reported

    @cleland777 @hazeltunes @virginmedia I would text them because at least then you have tried to cancel in the period you want to. It’s on the them to get back to you

  • cleland777 alison cleland (@cleland777) reported

    @NillySutton @hazeltunes @virginmedia thank you for offering but I don't want to write... (not least because we have virtually no postal service in my area...) and also i am determined to cancel within the next day or 2. I am just going to make a lot of noise online if they do not reply!
