    @virginmedia Why is the #FuryWhyte fight not working?? I want compensation for this

    PCPresenter (@PcPresenter) reported from Maidstone, England

    @virginmedia If you do not fix the #FuryWhyte fight by 7:30pm, I will cancel my subscription and go to @sky as they seem to be able to hold up their end of a contract.

    @jamesdgreen02 @virginmedia I've got the same problem. Was told by the faults team that if it wasn't fixed by 11pm last night that it should be fixed by 8pm tonight. Still not fixed at the moment

    @virginmedia I've been trying this morning via the phone, online chat and WhatsApp, all I get is robots going in a loop. This is daft I don't want to leave but the only option is to cancel!

    @virginmedia As a virgin customer, Uswitch says I have the right to quit if I inform you before the 15th Feb (after price hike). I have now just phoned and you have now said it was the tenth!? What is it please?

  • vamplady35
    Sharon Cooper (@vamplady35) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia My understanding is that it is affecting a lot of people. I have now worked out how to access my email another way but do strongly feel that virgin media should be looking to resolve this issue ASAP.

    @omaromalleykhan @virginmedia I'm either writing a letter and rejoining 60 days later on a cheap "new customer deal" or just quiting. Such a weird service! Ie non existent

    @virginmedia @virginmedia I've been having issues with internet dropping out continuosly for a couple of months, you sent another WiFi pod still the problem is there! The hub 3 status network connection has warnings and is critical, losing sync! I have been spin around in circles

  • MarcusNovius
    MNovius (@MarcusNovius) reported from Royal Tunbridge Wells, England

    @coxy1976 @virginmedia Crazy you got to speak with a human! Took me days to get through via various methods going round in circles just trying to either cancel or renew my broadband. Eventually it was sorted in minutes after hours of my time wasted.

    @virginmedia I am trying to access live chat as I have blackspots in house and would like WiFi boosters from Virgin. I have 200 Mbps but am getting only 20mbps in bedroom. Cannot find live chat on sites other than loads of help pages. Really frustrating

  • MarcusNovius
    MNovius (@MarcusNovius) reported from Royal Tunbridge Wells, England

    @virginmedia hello your phone doesn't get answered, the chat bot doesn't work. How can I do the one thing everyone wants to do at the end of their fibre deal- either cancel or get a new deal? #broadband #Useless

  • MarcusNovius
    MNovius (@MarcusNovius) reported from Royal Tunbridge Wells, England

    @virginmedia Thanks not your fault but its an awful business plan. I cant do anything to renew my account so it will cancel. 😵‍💫🤯

    @virginmedia Terrible service from you these last two weeks! I have spent more than 4hrs on the phone to Asian based O2, and Virgin call centres who never help or process things. Also Capita in South Africa… Why do you use foreign call centres if they cannot do the job!!

    MNovius (@MarcusNovius) reported from Royal Tunbridge Wells, England

    @Matt_Goss @virginmedia I've reached the WhatsApp stage! It's like some stupid maze just to get to the same result as I started with...

    @virginmedia Hi VM, I ordered a replacement remote control for my TIVO box. Just realised that was a couple of months ago but it never came. When trying online again it says as I’ve had one within six months I can’t order another. Please check that the first was ever sent, thanks

    1hr 15mins on the phone and counting just trying to cancel @virginmedia @VMHelpDesk Disgrace to be honest

    @virginmedia Folks, amuse me, why on earth would I or anyone complete a survey after leaving you when you couldn’t deal with the issue within 2 months and dare I say the plus 20 years we had an undiagnosed fault!?

    @virginmedia I'm sure they will. The fact that It'll be a week since I tried to contact you and the importance of this service I guess is of no real concern to you?

  • OnurAbdullah11

    @virginmedia seriously, have had enough..... Having problems with my WiFi and no one can help..... What sort of a company is this? Someone please advise who I can contact

  • WuWalker
    Sam Walker (@WuWalker) reported

    @virginmedia twice now my install has been cancelled last minute (tomorrow's install, confirmed yesterday, cancelled at 19:46 tonight). Every time I call I get "transferred" & cut off & every "chat" goes nowhere. How can I cancel your services, so I can move to a good supplier?

  • CamelRoberts
    Paul Roberts (@CamelRoberts) reported

    @virginmedia your fibre phone line is utter £&@t. Nothing but trouble since you have switched us over from our phone line. Internet down yet again. Pathetic service from you yet again, this is too regular and not worth the monthly fee.

  • PaulWoodworth13
    Paul Woodworth (@PaulWoodworth13) reported

    @virginmedia Wow! That's different from what customer services told me ? They said 41 days, I finished my contract with you guys in August but was advised service switched off on the 9th of September? Confused is not the word, and Al what company in the 21st century sends out cheques ?

  • MineshP21
    Minesh Patel (@MineshP21) reported

    @virginmedia when are we gonna have internet? It’s been down over three days. Can’t speak to anyone cos I get the silly automated message. Fix it I would need some compensation. I can’t work from home at all

  • OnurAbdullah11
    Onur Abdullah (@OnurAbdullah11) reported

    @virginmedia There are no problems. When I tried calling I am told to buy a higher package..... Already on 350mb/s I have no wifi upstairs..... Rude man on the phone
