    @O2 @virginmedia Thanks I’ll look into what multi-sim plans you have but the reason I left was due to poor family, multi user based tariffs.

    Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia I do really get fed up with VirginMedias poor service and platitudes. The speed on my internet connection is down less than 56kb, but your Helpdesk technicians consider this to be a problem

    Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia My Daught is having significant problems with her IPAD as result, and using her phones data (no we are not Virgin phones), which is costing her, when your network falters, I then switch to my NHS phone and use its data, and my simply uses her work phone ...both essential workers.

    @virginmedia tried calling you for 40 minutes now, no luck. Broadband issue in LN1 area. Can ping external servers but your DNS servers (194.168.4.100) is not responding/working. All our devices are affected, but service status says all good. Rebooted everything. Fix please!

  • Clive_Burt
    Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia I have been offered the opportunity to complain, but as a customer of 20+ years I am aware complaints tend to get ignored. At its worst speed was down to 0.5Mega bits per second ... At its best (for 20 minutes or so) maybe 150Mega bits per second. Paying for 200Mbps .....

  • Pogit
    Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia The only response is they have given up and will let me out of my contract early. Not a great response for a customer of well over 20 years

    Richard Farrell (@RichardFarrell8) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    Looking for advice. Trying to cancel @virginmedia as they keep saying I owe them £168 but they should have credited me £70 but they have debited me instead. Made several calls over the past weeks to no joy. Logged a formal complaint to no avail. Advice is much appreciated 🤯

    @MichaelLCrick @TomaszPalmer @RogerMi17980111 @virginmedia And the reality is (sadly) that when someone in your position posts stuff like this, it does carry much more clout than the average person who is being let down by these big companies. Power to you Michael.

    I staff @virginmedia customer services have taken leave of their senses. I called and the lady asked me how much is your bill every month as part of the verification process I said £27 a month she asked for my email address which I gave and she again asked for my price?

    Gaz (@R111_Gaz) reported

    @palmertrees @Amy_90_x Well, yes, just like people pay for Sky et al. Point is, its normally an extra fee channel, but not this afternoon, any Virgin Media customer can have it.

    megb (@Gbarch1) reported

    @virginmedia Our service has been down since 10pm Thursday 28th. Latest updates keep pushing reconnection forward to latest info: 1st June 12pm. What on earth are you doing? Clearly not working on Friday-Sunday. Replies have dried up and your Whatsapp is disabled. We pay £123 pm

  • DavidGerrish
    David Gerrish (@DavidGerrish) reported

    Misleading email @virginmedia saying I can watch Champions League Final for free. Seems I can’t. Now my son is in tears and he thinks I’m a terrible Dad.

    JCC SOUTH (@JccSouth) reported

    @rpd_pacer @virginmedia @virginmedia customer service is woeful. With them since it was Telewest. Sky are much better and have got good offers on at the moment. Only time they were any good was after a death in the family when they weren't needed anymore! Good luck.

    @BBCNews It is if you're a Virgin Media Customer with 360 box, even if you don't have TNT Sports. 👍 @footballontnt

    Corax (@Refan80) reported

    @virginmedia @Vikk3rs146 Sorry isn't good enough. The link you gave tells us nothing we didn't already know. We want actual answers and some real customer service. All it tells me is my internet is down, well no **** Sherlock the flashing red light and no connection on my computer told me that.
