    @virginmedia Will you ever sort your hub 3 from lag, lag, lag, 10 million customers, you prob paid a quid each for this pile of crap hub 3 from China, taking advantage of the sweat shops paying the workers nothing, that is why this router is shite, shite shite!

  • sandras_smith Sandra SmithMND (@sandras_smith) reported from St Helens, England

    @Danielle869 @virginmedia I agree. The service my 85 year old dad received was appalling. Moved to Sky, when @virginmedia asked how they could keep custom, our reply “ wouldn’t have if it was free”.

  • cadeharry Nightsky Ceilings (@cadeharry) reported from Euxton, England

    @virginmedia WTF INTERNET DOWN .Record message should be back running by 12.05am Are you serious.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @Simatron3000 @virginmedia That looks bad, mine is better than that, but notice no packet loss.

  • AHeywood_84 Andy (@AHeywood_84) reported from Golborne, England

    @virginmedia I want to cancel my contract, why cant I do this over live chat or online without someone keeping me on the phone trying to sell me a deal that is far worse than you signed me up with!! Iffer me a good deal to keep me, ir just let me cancel without fuss, Sort it out!

  • SalfordHydro Dr Neil Entwistle (@SalfordHydro) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Ok great, I hope you do as thus far your customer service phone line hasn’t. The engineer hasn’t. The manager I spoke over the telephone hasn’t so you’re my last hope before I’m forced to shop elsewhere

  • SalfordHydro Dr Neil Entwistle (@SalfordHydro) reported from Salford, England

    Hi @virginmedia, I’ve moved house & your website confirmed I can have your services however when the installer came he said we need to get the local neighbours to use “cable my street” on internet. However we can’t because your website says we have it. Catch 22! Help please.

  • Samueltennant Sam Tennant (@Samueltennant) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia UK Sales say 1 month extension reconnection impossible, but offshore call centres said yes but this has not happened yet. House moves are stressful. Please help.

  • John_B58 John B (+) (@John_B58) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia 6pm is what you always seem to say, it’s lazy customer service and not very helpful at all to your current customers.

  • CarlitosGirl Gail (GiGi) Frampton (@CarlitosGirl) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia No not really, I need a call or a name I can email. I just need a resolution, can't spend time telling a long story to people who don't have the authority to look at the account and resolve it. Can you do that or can you pass me to someone who can. Please.

  • itsonlyme72 Louise V (@itsonlyme72) reported from Salford, England

    @donzy77 @virginmedia You would think as loyal customers we would get better deals. Please let me know if you find a better service elsewhere.

  • Samueltennant Sam Tennant (@Samueltennant) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Hi! Follow-up to my prob yesterday, Housemove has been delayed, VM discon 16/09, I've now asked for 1 final mnth. >1hr on phone with 3x outbound call centres yesterday; still not clear if 1) Service will be Reactivated today & 2) will be for one month, not 12/24. Ta!

  • ConradBetton Conrad Betton (@ConradBetton) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia In the last 4 weeks I can’t get any internet if more than a 5m away from hub/extender. Shows and full signal strength. Your technical support team need to send me at least 1 more extender.

  • AHeywood_84 Andy (@AHeywood_84) reported from Golborne, England

    So, at the end of my @virginmedia contract, question is, stick or twist, cost is going up and I do wonder what @SkyUK @SkyHelpTeam could offer as a returning customer, we shall see!

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @RichPierce0079 @virginmedia @SkyUK @VodafoneUK All different issues really. Virgin is its own thing. Sky could have been a line issue, Vodafone went live earlier today but despite saying it has an internet connection it doesn’t. Almost like they’ve not activated it on their end despite the app saying the line is active.

  • _DebDeb_ Deb Deb (@_DebDeb_) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia hi I recently signed up but want to cancel

  • AHeywood_84 Andy (@AHeywood_84) reported from Golborne, England

  • _DebDeb_ Deb Deb (@_DebDeb_) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia wow called up to cancel and the guy says I’ve successfully cancelled and then hangs up!!! Thank god I’ve decided not to go with you!

  • XboxE3Fans Xbox E3 Fans 🎮 (@XboxE3Fans) reported from Manchester, England

    @aravelle @virginmedia Yikes, that sucks :( I know they’re doing a lot of new areas in and around Manchester so I do hope they’re in your area ASAP! :(

  • Samueltennant Sam Tennant (@Samueltennant) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia VERY happy customer for eight years, only disconnecting as not available and new address but the last 24hrs have been a nightmare. The offshore call centres simply seem to have no facility to understand something like this which is off script. 1/2

  • dizzlekicks2603 🅳🅸🆉🆉🆈 🤪 (@dizzlekicks2603) reported

    @virginmedia Yes. He was very helpful but thinks it's a problem with the outside main street box. Someones coming out to look at it today I think.

  • TheFlyingKipper Brian Welsby (@TheFlyingKipper) reported

    @virginmedia broadband is down again, twice yesterday too, okay you are working on fixing it est 4:15pm After years of good reliable service it's needed more than ever in this lockdown. Even worse, you are increasing the price. Not happy. (End of rant)

  • eden2636 Andrea (@eden2636) reported

    @virginmedia @nicolagrisman Why do you just reply the same stock tweet to everyone? Just shows how little you actually care. This is just like calling your customer ‘service’ who read from a script & if you ask them anything they just repeat the same line over & over, not answering the question

  • Philip_Bentham Philip Paul Bentham (@Philip_Bentham) reported

    @virginmedia I have spent several hours talking to 'the team' I even asked to speak to a manager and was told that the manager would not take the call. My contract has ended so I told them I was leaving and I will cancel the direct debit.

  • BenWill76352165 BenTweets (@BenWill76352165) reported

    @virginmedia Ooooo, no surprise there then!! So basically you cant help me. Thanks again for being misinformed regarding your speeds and being so useful. YOU DO THROTTLE SPEEDS AND I HAVE EVIDENCE. Unfortunately I am not able to make any calls from here either...... @Ofcom

  • jonryanjones Jon Ryan Jones (@jonryanjones) reported

    @virginmedia I’m having issues with internet connection this morning in the east Herts area, my usual 350+ mbs is now a painfully slow 5.3mbs. Service status on the site says everything is fine but it’s clearly not. Is there a problem in the area? Home schooling and work on pause

  • liamn1984 Liam (@liamn1984) reported

    @googlenesthelp I have a Thermostat 3rd gen, now a 2nd Gen Protect too. 2 weeks of trying and asking your support teams and find out the Protect can’t be connected as I have Virgin Media Broadband. Surely this can’t be right. Not happy and bored of trying

  • DarrenBond86 Darren Bond (@DarrenBond86) reported

    @virginmedia more broadband issues AGAIN whilst my wife and I are trying to WFH and home school. Absolute joke, at a time when your service is needed most and you're increasing fees too.

  • C__Overfield chris overfield (@C__Overfield) reported

    @virginmedia phone call saying my internet will go down in three hours can't get through on phone can anyone confirm if my area is going to have work? TS10

  • D_R0YAL Young Rôyal 👑 (@D_R0YAL) reported

    @virginmedia No. You’ve suspended my services. Again. I need a manger to call me back immediately. The service I’m currently receiving is disgusting. I want to cancel my ROLLING contract.
