    @virginmedia An ongoing account issue. All I’m trying to do is sort it out. Your staff accepted my call today and then hung up after 17 minutes of hold time.

    When you’re trying to upload and synch 20gb of wedding photos via a 4g hotspot because your @virginmedia broadband has been down for days on end with useless customer service and you have a deadline. It’s never ending! 😩 #virginmedia #custometservicefail #fail

    @virginmedia Hi virgin just rang the phone number you have gave us to call but we went through using the key pad and then all you said was we will send a text message with way to fix which don’t work.

    @virginmedia So @virginmedia my contract has finally been resolved. 3 hours of phone calls in 24-hrs (including phone being cut off 3 times) 6 hours of WhatsApp Failure to honour contract offers. Shambles of a company. Worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. #virginmedia #fail

    @virginmedia I've tried both of those. I was going to restart the router and see if that made any difference. Appreciate the help 👍🏼

  • gemmak500
    ᒍᗩᑎE (@gemmak500) reported from Chesham Bois, England

    @virginmedia Yes there were, we received a text at 2am to say it was (finally) fixed but it isn’t & we are now expected to go through the entire reporting/testing the router process again. No engineer for days.This is NOT a router issue, it’s affecting many homes. #bangsheadonwall

  • PcPresenter
    PCPresenter (@PcPresenter) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia Any chance you can DM me about an issue? Trying to find an avenue to contact you through the website is shockingly ****. What's the point of having an option to contact when it's impossible to find it??

  • MrsMummypennyUK
    Lynn Beattie (@MrsMummypennyUK) reported from Knebworth, England

    @virginmedia I am stuck in a broadband contract with u. The upload/download speed is awful. 25 hours to upload a 20 minute video to youtube. 2 mths ive had these issues. Your customer services and fault department cannot fix it. 45 mins on phone. 6 day wait for engineer. Angry.

    John Aitken (@johnait72020789) reported from Stotfold, England

    @virginmedia Hi I’ve tried using the link you sent to fix our problem but it keeps just turn off and restarting itself. It happens whether we watch live tv or recorded programmes.

    @virginmedia So you've just admitted you've had an increase in custom, meaning an increase in profits, yet I and other customers have to pay for you to expand your network? Greedy, greedy, greedy. Pay for it yourselves. Just seen the same package thru @bt_uk for £21 a month less. Bye

    @virginmedia services might have come back as per your update (terrestrial ones) but they’re now not working again. Channels now ‘not authorised’. How about some proper action and updates.

  • gemmak500

    @virginmedia Yes, it’s showing issues but we are still being treated like this is a new issue with no history. 😩

  • jasondflynn
    Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @virginmedia So @virginmedia what do I do when your phone team tells me they can’t do anything and it’s down to the WhatsApp team who don’t do anything ? What is the next turn? I have a contract offer I want to accept but can’t ?

    The Government is asking its TDs to vote against a Sinn Féin proposal to begin preparations for a United Ireland. The bill, being debated in the Dáil this evening, would require the Government to establish a Citizens' Assembly on Irish unity. Ministers say the proposal is being rushed and that the issue requires a broader, more considered approach. More on Virgin Media PLAY. #VMNews

    @virginmedia please help. I’m trying to reduce my mums package. She has Alzheimer’s disease. All she needs is a basic internet and phone . No tv. No Netflix. No TNT. For some reason every time I am offered a deal including all the things I do not need. Her bill is due to double

    The amount of times by broadband has gone down or dropped out from @virginmedia recently is shocking! Thankfully my renewal date is coming up as it won’t be a renew this time after being a customer for a majority of my bill paying life!

    🔴 Ofcom fines Virgin Media £28m for blocking customer cancellations Virgin Media breached UK telecoms rules by deliberately dropping calls, transferring customers unnecessarily, and placing them on hold to prevent contract cancellations between January 2022 and September 2024. Ofcom received nearly 2,000 complaints and found the company's retention agents operated under a commission scheme that financially rewarded obstruction. • Fine of £28m — Ofcom's largest ever under consumer protection rules, reduced 30% after Virgin Media admitted fault and agreed to settle • Millions of calls "likely mishandled" during the three-year period
