    @virginmedia And it's back down at just 16Mbps now. It happens intermittently.

  • jamesblack1986 James (@jamesblack1986) reported from Denny, Scotland

    Delighted to see @virginmedia's internet is back to being a back of ****.

  • Haggischaser Gary Ivady (@Haggischaser) reported from Falkirk, Scotland

    @virginmedia I’ve just had a phone all from a call centre stating it was from virgin media. They were saying that I’m having issues with my internet speed and needed to turn on a computer or device to check my speeds. Is this something that your tech division door is it spam?

  • AndrewWedge A Wedge 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💙🇪🇺 (@AndrewWedge) reported from Dunfermline, Scotland

    @virginmedia I am still waiting for a call back that was due early this week. Can’t get through to the call centre at all, been trying all day. Can you help?

  • AndrewWedge A Wedge 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💙🇪🇺 (@AndrewWedge) reported from Dunfermline, Scotland

    @virginmedia now on my 11th call to sort this out in the last 3 weeks. Each time on the phone for over an hour and still no solution. How to I cancel everything if they refuse to do it and pass me through 5/6 call centres

  • AndrewWedge A Wedge 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💙🇪🇺 (@AndrewWedge) reported from Dunfermline, Scotland

    @virginmedia They may be dedicated but if they don’t have the permissions to help or work in the right department it’s no use. I can be free at 4pm for a webchat

  • Lindsham1 Linda Hamilton (@Lindsham1) reported from Whitecross, Scotland

    Got Premier Sports for todays game through Virgin Media at £9.99 with the option to cancel after 30 days. 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬

  • Auds_Clark Audrey Clark (@Auds_Clark) reported from Bo’ness, Scotland

    @virginmedia I have no internet. And your ‘help’ line says you’re closed due to Covid. So how do I resolve my issues??

  • Haggiskings Haggisking (@Haggiskings) reported from Brightons, Scotland

    @virginmedia you sent someone out to fix our leaky phone line. He used silicone and gunged up the wires - now we can’t call you to tell you he properly broke it with the repair... help....

  • Haggiskings Haggisking💙 (@Haggiskings) reported from Brightons, Scotland

    @virginmedia Hi, is it normal for an agent to call to fix internet problems?I pressurised him on his lack of security, he said do you want good service or to cancel?Then hung up?It’s impossible to communicate with you as a corporate organisation so I’m hoping you tweet?

  • AndrewWedge A Wedge 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💙🇪🇺 (@AndrewWedge) reported from Dunfermline, Scotland

    @virginmedia your call centre is rude, they can’t understand simple English, round in circles, the line keeps buzzing out, I want to cancel but they will not put me through to anyone who can. They profess to be from every team everything I ask for help! Shocking how bad this is

  • hibezzz KR@HFC1875 (@hibezzz) reported from Currie, Scotland

    @virginmedia Still trying to call for help with my internet but again the answer you get is all lines are busy try later , same message whatever time of the day or night I call, terrible service 🤬

  • AndrewWedge A Wedge 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💙🇪🇺 (@AndrewWedge) reported from Dunfermline, Scotland

    @virginmedia I have been calling premium numbers for weeks to speak to people. Only one seemed to help but she was from a UK office and said she would call me back. I am still waiting over a week later for anyone to be in touch with me!

  • AndrewWedge A Wedge 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💙🇪🇺 (@AndrewWedge) reported from Dunfermline, Scotland

    @virginmedia They may have the same training but they do not have the same capability to make decisions. I don’t care where they are based but only UK based departments can help getting this installed. How can @Ofcom allow you to charge premium numbers just to get in touch it’s been 10 weeks!

  • hibezzz KR@HFC1875 (@hibezzz) reported from Currie, Scotland

    @virginmedia Virgin media, tried all day to call and the line is constantly not available, terrible service , make a complaint on line and they say it will take up to 28 days to respond , who gets away with treating customers like that , unbelievable

  • AndrewWedge A Wedge 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💙🇪🇺 (@AndrewWedge) reported from Dunfermline, Scotland

    @virginmedia Is there a free phone number or a way to get direct to the UK bases call centres as your oversees premium numbers do not have the capability to help in this matter I’ve trie don multiple occasions

  • CountingSheep5 Darren Ja-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-land (@CountingSheep5) reported from Falkirk, Scotland

    @virginmedia Currently at 374Mbps on wireless, so not the worst it's been. 943Mbps on wired.

  • lisaJwatson_3 (@lisaJwatson_3) reported from Bo’ness, Scotland

    @virginmedia No, only on certain channels (5 HD being the worst) there seems be a static interference. The box is very old so not sure if it is compatible anymore

  • tartanjammies Tomahawk Kid © 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@tartanjammies) reported from Currie, Scotland

    @virginmedia I doubt it. It did this yesterday. And the day before, and the day before. I'll let you know when it goes down again.

    @virginmedia Credit where credit is due, spoke to a customer service rep today and they’ve sorted me out. New contract, great price and no hassle at all. #PositiveFeedback

  • Matt_Goss Matt Goss 🏳️‍🌈 (@Matt_Goss) reported

    @virginmedia It is through WiFi but verily close the to hub. It pauses every few minutes and the quality drops to very poor.

  • markhoward73 Mark Howard (@markhoward73) reported

    @virginmedia Hi John, I’ve just tried to update the new box / software but have a message to say it’s couldn’t and the error code is MA1/4/40. Can you help?

  • MehulSh58010961 Mehul Shah (@MehulSh58010961) reported

    @DianeLu13077223 @virginmedia Couldn't agree more. They pretend to be so friendly but no absolutely nothing to resolve issues

  • apf102 Alex Ford (@apf102) reported

    @virginmedia It constantly crashes even after reboots and updates. The Wi-Fi signal is very mixed. Plus the whole interface is slow. I’ve had this for ages now and it has never been a good router. Cannot ring though to speak to anyone due to awful website

  • TLewis2015 Tiffany Lewis (@TLewis2015) reported

    @virginmedia what's the email address to report a scam. I was called from someone saying they are from your customer loyalty team and they had quite a few details about my account and no one from VM seems to be helpful in verifying his contact details which he gave me.

  • Raeoxoxo Rae xoxo (@Raeoxoxo) reported

    @virginmedia Hi hope you can help. My neighbour has just had VM out to spray paint where a new box/cabling will be on the ground & it’s on our drop kerb we have only recently had installed. We really do not want our new drop kerb dug up for a cable that is nothing to do with us.

  • shrubsole24 lee shrubsole (@shrubsole24) reported

    @virginmedia Hi. I made a complaint and still haven’t heard back. It’s been more than the 72 hours now

  • bigTimmyB84 Timmy (@bigTimmyB84) reported

    @virginmedia How do I look into my 14 day cancel. This service is so poor. Trying to get a hold of someone so poor. But when it came to setting up takes 2 mins. Very poor.

  • KRIPTO99 Richard Osgood (@KRIPTO99) reported

    @virginmedia On looking on your Twitter feed I'm not the only one having these problems,it seems to be nation wide. What is going on with your service please,I think we as customers deserve an answer
