    @SkyHelpTeam Sorry but who thought that this was practical??? I watch an episode then delete, what you are suggesting is way too much effort when the option was at the side. Log this as a formal complaint pls. SkyQ is so outdated compared to Virgin Media, roll my deal expiry! #sky

  • kqbrain
    Khurram Qayam (@kqbrain) reported from Reading, England

    We have issue with #HGVdrivers but why @virginmedia broadband had issues for the last few days in RG6 area. Pretty bad service. @Ofcom

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

    @virginmedia Hi again. Just letting you know we’ve made contact with him and all seems fine. So please can we cancel the engineer for Friday.

  • MikeBiscoe1
    Mike Biscoe (@MikeBiscoe1) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia *sigh*. Been directed to this many times. Had engineers referred many times. This is a persistent issue that raises its ugly head far too frequently

  • Chateauneuf64
    Bowlesy (@Chateauneuf64) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia OK guys, could you ask your team behind the scenes to turn my BB signal up just a tad, you know, enough so it actually works? As your putting your prices up would be great to experience what I'm actually paying for now! Thanks

  • andburd
    Andrew Burdett (@andburd) reported from Maidenhead, England

    Hi @virginmedia, I’ve spent more than an hour on the phone to your advisors this morning and am getting nowhere. I have therefore now decided I would like to cancel my contract (I am within cooling-off period). Would I still be considered a ‘new’ customer if I find a new deal?

  • spandya1
    Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Croxley Green, England

    @virginmedia An engineer came today. Issue resolved. If you remember I told you that it was highly probable that work being performed at a cabinet on our street may have resulted in our issue. I also told your telephone support team. That’s exactly what had happened. Appalling service.

  • 1SLToo
    Andy (@1SLToo) reported from Rickmansworth, England

    Merry Christmas to all at @virginmedia who have left all of us in WD3 area with no TV or Internet for over a week (predicted) and probably longer over the entire festive period, moving to sky in the new year due to your continuing rubbish service and customer service

    Matt Gardner (@FuzzyPixels) reported from Slough, England

    Not gonna lie... @virginmedia could not have picked a worse moment to completely **** the bed 😑

  • trsaanderson
    Tracey Anderson (@trsaanderson) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia is there a problem with broadband in UB7 , intermittent broadband for a few days and nothing today.

    @cop_ish @virginmedia Our Virgin broadband at work went off ystdy for 3 hours there Service is shite

  • HamiltonNashHR
    Jim Moore (@HamiltonNashHR) reported from Winnersh, England

    So @virginmedia is down again, and their 4G backup dongle has failed to take over AGAIN. In fact, it has never once failed over to 4G in any of the outages we’ve ever had. Why am I paying for this? 😡

  • PhilStace20
    Phil Stacey (@PhilStace20) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia It’s more about how this can’t be dealt with online and spending a busy day trying to get to talk with someone who actually can help. #Disgraceful #expectedthis

  • EmsAlice
    Ems (@EmsAlice) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia We just purchased a film from the media store and it won’t play - just is stuck at 0 minutes 😡 we’ve restarted our box but always have problems like this with catch up especially… not ideal when we’ve paid money to rent a film! Can you help at all?

  • will_i_am67
    Billy Baxter (@will_i_am67) reported from Slough, England

    @virginmedia Called customer services at 6.30pm yesterday Sky sports now added. Lots of issues with WiFi at same time was on phone unable to load tivo box history appears to of been sorted. We will see in next 14days

  • kqbrain
    Khurram Qayam (@kqbrain) reported from Reading, England

    Another day of bad experience with @virginmedia broadband service in RG6 area. Buffering on streaming service, no video calls possible on Skype and WhatsApp. Seriously thinking of switching to @bt_uk

  • TheRealBenHart
    Ben Hart (@TheRealBenHart) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia 2nd time this week that the broadband has been completely down! Fed up with being sent in circles by your telephone system. Your fault reporting seems to flip between acknowledging there is a fault and proclaiming no fault.

  • Pablocollier
    Paul Collier (@Pablocollier) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia Patchy. And the weekends enquiry regarding possibly upgrading... Non existent service.

  • will_i_am67
    Billy Baxter (@will_i_am67) reported from Slough, England

    @virginmedia good at persuading customers to stay with them just not very good at keeping promises. Several telephone calls to customer services still not activated request for Sky Sports can't even be certain new broadband speed has been implemented might need to contact @Ofcom

  • Rochdale_Cowboy
    Craig (@Rochdale_Cowboy) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia @elise_john85 So you're whacking up Elsie's cost because you have more customers (who are presumably also paying you) using the service, and you want to use Elsie extra £4.50 / month so you can invest in services that attract even more customers?!? Get in the bin!

    @virginmedia If you want to know how really BAD this bunch of COWBOYS are - listen to BBC Radio Four "You & Your" Monday 13 April. Utterly inept and incompetent. STEALING a LIVING. The Senior Management should HANG THEIR INCOMPETENT HEADS IN SHAME.

    @Dety0 Thinking of buying it to help with ping, get 40-50 ping in uk even tho I have virgin media with best package

  • CP1861
    MJC (@CP1861) reported

    @virginmedia my account has now been locked for 3 months and therefore I’m unable to watch virgin tv go, one of the main reasons I’m your customer. I’ve phoned your customer services 7 times now and spent numerous hours on the phone speaking to your staff and on hold.

  • MartinLawton
    Martin Lawton (@MartinLawton) reported

    @virginmedia without a doubt one of the worst companies to deal with, put your bills up to say services need improving and they get worse

  • eripley8
    James Munro (@eripley8) reported

    @virginmedia @mobily_uk Can you drop the smiling emoji Virgin. It really is absurdly patronising and shows that you're just laughing at us rather than genuinely trying to help

  • jmilprint
    Jazza (@jmilprint) reported

    @sharonmariahall @virginmedia I've never had a problem with them, consistent fast Internet, TV works fine. When I thought of leaving they gave me a reduced price all done through Whatsapp.

  • ndbchnn
    ndbchnn (@ndbchnn) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia can you please update me on the service in m30 - it’s been 48 hours no wifi, heating or television.

  • shauny67
    Shaun (@shauny67) reported

    @virginmedia @itswesty Is this WiFi or ethernet if WiFi will be a device issue. Turn all devices off, restart the hub then bring one device up at a time until the internet drops then will know which device has the issue.

  • oliverjames77
    Shaun (@oliverjames77) reported

    @virginmedia good morning I hope you can help I have received a letter stating I owe £90 For equipment I returned, I Was told to return box and remote, can someone explain what is needed as I cancelled my contract and thought all was concluded … thanks

  • mobily_uk
    James Turpin (@mobily_uk) reported

    Hey @virginmedia why do we have to do this dance every year? £66 per month increasing to £148?? I cancel, you offer me a similar deal to what I had and we move on. Why not just offer it up front? None of this pretend nonsense!
