    @virginmedia really let down by Virgin media. I'm on M200 and am getting 50M at the mo. As low as 0.18M around 7pm and 10M around 8pm. Your customer service chat hasn't responded in 3hrs. I've reset router and changed channels. It's been patchy all week What am I paying for?

    Please could @virginmedia on 0330 303 5309 stop calling me, then immediately hanging up. That’s rude. I’ve now blocked your number.

    @virginmedia with the new price increase it states with don't need to pay any cancellation fees. My contract ends on the Summer, if I were to cancel do I need to pay the remaining months?

    @TfL why is the 4G signal on the Central line underground only around the posh area's of Notting Hill Gate, Queensway and Holland Park? Since @virginmedia stopped their WiFi in April it's annoying that a major metropolis like London has no internet connections on a lot of lines

    I've just had to suffer the same 4 songs,1 a poor cover of 'Where my Rosemary goes', on a loop, in 2,45 mins of waiting for @virginmedia to pick up. Within 10 mins of engineer fixing fault, its playing up again. Its also the end of my contract so I want to deal with it.

  • HunteLucy
    Lucy Hunte (@HunteLucy) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia - workman cut through my cable, no Wi-Fi, TV or phone and earliest engineer appointment is Monday??! Completely unacceptable! I work from home and have teens! 😭Help!!!

  • AdiStaempfli
    Adi Staempfli (@AdiStaempfli) reported from London, England

    After 10 years with @virginmedia , & after weeks of terrible WiFi & customer service, I asked they equal BT’s deal. Operator could not do that and would not let me talk to manager, nor send a message for call back. I asked x3. Operator terminated call. Poor service!

  • SandraS80775853
    Mary (@SandraS80775853) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia @Miss_SKM That is correct. What it does not cover is the persistent loss of service since August!!! #se7. Nor does it cover the absolute woeful customer services, and I use that phrase lightly, which @virginmedia is able to offer.

    @virginmedia Thanks Virgin had my phone stolen on Tuesday called you to cancel the sim you promised to send me another one but you never did. Thanks 🙏 for making a stressful situation even worse

  • Veganforever67

    @virginmedia #virginmedia spoke to a very nice lady today from Virgin media who wanted to know why I was leaving Virgin after 10 minutes of me complaining on how bad Virgin has been extending my contract and all sorts of things she did apologise but I said it wasn't her fault

  • _Lewis_A
    Lewis Allen ⚒ (@_Lewis_A) reported from London, England

    So @virginmedia won't let me leave our contract despite their service continually crashing or not providing the speed it promises. Ultrafast broadband but getting nothing or 9mb download. Fed up with it now. Avoid them at all costs. #VirginMediaoutage #broadband

    Hello @virginmedia you appear to have yet again issues around London N7. And yes I have tried to turn it off and on again

  • Barchetta66
    Helen Pinkers (@Barchetta66) reported from Islington, England

    @Whiskey_Mick @virginmedia We’ve just had the same experience - waited 8 days. Not a word from them. Not a human spoken to. If I had another choice I’d drop them. 0/10 for customer service.

  • Mustxkim

    Hey @virginmedia - yet ANOTHER outage HA54ED. How many more will there be? My elderly mother in law had no TV for 10 days recently. You gave her compensation. How about proper service? Not good enough. Please contact me.

  • IzO_TTV
    IzO (@IzO_TTV) reported

    @virginmedia You have literally the most infuriating customer service process known to the entire universe. I cannot wait to be out of this Devil spawn of a contract. I actually pray for the down fall of this company with a passion. Zero interest in customer needs just straight aggressive sales tactics. Get out of my life seriously.

  • tirpse
    Mark (@tirpse) reported

    @virginmedia every night this week broadbands gone down at the same time. Do a check no issues, check again no issues check again intermittent issues check back in 24 hours. It’s not as if broadband is new, surely you should know what you’re doing by now? Fix it and get reliable!

  • cdavo25
    Chris Davis (@cdavo25) reported

    @virginmedia WORST Internet Provider iv ever had! Internet breaks takes nearly 2 weeks to fix it and within a week it broke again! And all you get back from customer care is no understanding and promises it will be fixed soon! Absolute joke of a company L

  • Americanvoiceo1
    Joe Duley American voiceover person (@Americanvoiceo1) reported

    @virginmedia STILL! Service completely out! No explanation (although app says 'everything is fine') It's deceiving info. No BB OR phone/TV. CAN'T ring customer service-at all. Now, my life's mission is to escalate w/CISAS as #Virginmedia is costing me financially/professionally.

    @j_ball13 @virginmedia when my mum died she was the primary account holder of our t3sc0 mobile family plan. instead of letting us switch our dad to the named person on the account, they cut our contracts off and left us with no working signal at all. absolute rubbish, i think they even put a block on

  • BrownEyedGirlGB
    Trina S 💙 (@BrownEyedGirlGB) reported

    @virginmedia Resolution estimate was 15:08. It’s not intermittent it’s totally out and the resolution estimate has moved 4 times and is now tomorrow evening. Right above the service status issue box is a box saying it’s time to renew, look at contract options. No chance. 4/4.
