  • Kiefer1667 Marc Lancaster (@Kiefer1667) reported from Bolton-le-Sands, England

    @virginmedia hi, ive been charged for cancelling a service when i was advised by one of your phone operators that i wudnt be, because youd swapped me onto Vodafone signal instead of staying on ee signal,can you advise why ive been charged when told i wudnt be?

  • apocolypse2015 pfarri (@apocolypse2015) reported from Kirkby Lonsdale, England

    @virginmedia Already done. Annoyed that we were assured that we could transfer our service to our new house, despite me querying this with the operator at the time. A note to this effect is also on our call log. Surely it is you who is now breaking the contract, not me.

  • tomwalsh77 Tom Walsh (@tomwalsh77) reported from Lancaster, England

    @ThreeUKSupport I do have WiFi but I pay virgin media for that. When are you going to fix your network. I’ve been told your network is suffering because of the 5G rollout. Please fix it.

  • tomwalsh77 Tom Walsh (@tomwalsh77) reported from Lancaster, England

    @JustCallMeSeann @virginmedia Several people in my local area have reported the issue hence why I know the problem is at the local virgin media cabinet as stated by their own engineer.

  • tomwalsh77 Tom Walsh (@tomwalsh77) reported from Lancaster, England

    @virginmedia Internet seems to be ok at the moment. The service status never reflects if service is down or not. My issue is with the intermittent loss of internet connection. Customer service treat me like an idiot. Please fix the problem in my area. (Lancaster)

  • colette_squiz ✨Colette Squirrell✨ (@colette_squiz) reported from Middleton, England

    @GBateson23 @virginmedia I’m coming to the end of my Virgin Media contract and I’ve got to ring them to get the price down and I’m dreading it 😭

  • JamesUHMB James (@JamesUHMB) reported from Lancaster, England

    @virginmedia Don't forget the total disregard for personal data. Especially of you're not even a customer!!

  • astlecw justChris 🏍🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@astlecw) reported from Carnforth, England

    Walking home saw a Virgin Media contractors truck turning off the main road, there's a thousand places it could be going, but let's guess. YES!! Outside our house when I get back. It's like flies to a cow pat. They never leave us alone😡

  • astlecw justChris 🏍🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@astlecw) reported from Carnforth, England

    Virgin Media's contractors back again, digging up the road for about the 10th time. Every time they go, we just KNOW they'll be back - might be next week, might be 2 months, but they will be back. They never leave us alone 🤬🤬🤬

  • Ampslave 𝔼𝕞𝕝𝕪𝕟 𝔹𝕦𝕤𝕓𝕪 (@Ampslave) reported from Middleton, England

    Not a happy @virginmedia customer right now! First time I've seen my kids in six weeks! #virginmedia

  • AdamNutt247 Adam Nutt (@AdamNutt247) reported from Middleton, England

    @virginmedia I've had no Internet since last night. Is there a local issue thats being worked on or can an engineer be sent out to resolve the issue? LA3 area.

  • JuliaMarmo Julia Marmo (@JuliaMarmo) reported from Fleetwood, England

    @virginmedia hello no phone signal since Tuesday 12th Jan. please advise ASAP.

  • TC6112 Tim Cross (@TC6112) reported from Middleton, England

    @virginmedia What is the broadband status at LA4 6EP please? The system appears to have gone down.

  • shaunnahayes shaunna hayes (@shaunnahayes) reported from Lancaster, England

    @virginmedia The services are back on but the issue is still unresolved as iv paid way over my bill and still owe more apparently

  • onjoelp Joel Procter (@onjoelp) reported from Lancaster, England

    @virginmedia ur internet is so bad! I hate u so much!

  • apocolypse2015 pfarri (@apocolypse2015) reported from Kirkby Lonsdale, England

    So, having just moved house to Cumbria, i contact #virginmedia to transfer my broadband, which they said a few weeks ago "would not be a problem" Now they tell me they dont operate around my new address, and are now trying to charge me £250 for breaking my contract. Any advice ??

  • tomwalsh77 Tom Walsh (@tomwalsh77) reported from Lancaster, England

    @JustCallMeSeann @virginmedia I realise the hub 3 isn’t great but like I said the issue (likely due to over subscription) is external to my property. Hopefully with enough people nagging them, Virgin will fix the local area fault.

  • Jenniboyd2510 Jen ✨✨ (@Jenniboyd2510) reported from Middleton, England

    So ringing @TUIUK for my refund & put on hold for 58 mins to be told they can't help and also to get a bill from @virginmedia of £58 for the call #nothappy @MartinSLewis how is this fair

  • DavePARA_MEDIC Dave “Benny” Bentley (@DavePARA_MEDIC) reported from Bolton-le-Sands, England

    @virginmedia crap customer service, we said that we wanted to switch provider, you said we would have to give 30 days notice, fair enough, and now you have just disconnected us anyway 🤬 poor comms from your Team, The Virgin Media Pizza 🍕 would have pubes as a topping

  • tomwalsh77 Tom Walsh (@tomwalsh77) reported from Lancaster, England

    @JustCallMeSeann @virginmedia The engineer told me several people in the area had the same issue as me and it wa likely due to a fault at the cabinet. I told this to customer service who then wanted to send another engineer to my house. 🙄

  • whitemaremma Fresca (@whitemaremma) reported

    @virginmedia Still bad. Videos buffering and connection keeps dropping out.

  • vmbusinesshelp Customer Service (@vmbusinesshelp) reported

    @virginmedia @DrMirzaAhmadLLD Hi Mirza, please accept my apologies for this issue. I would advise to call the fault team on 0800 052 0800 option 3 so they can diagnose the issue. Thanks. RB

  • Fracus Fracus (@Fracus) reported

    @virginmedia He replaced the (new) router and said his test indicated that may be the problem, but no, nothing else. It's *always* at peak time, just sporadic dropouts requiring reset. Never had this with the previous old router or package.

  • whitemaremma Fresca (@whitemaremma) reported

    @virginmedia Still bad. Online videos - even short You Tube clips - constantly buffering. Connection randomly dropping out. My hub is ancient - could that be the reason?

  • boothrichard1 Richard Booth (@boothrichard1) reported

    @virginmedia I wanted to congratulate you for having the worst customer service and the poorest communication system of any business I deal with. For a communications company that is spectacular!

  • donnykebab1972 Kieron Griffin (@donnykebab1972) reported

    Had new hub delivered today from @virginmedia by @YodelOnline. Tracking says left with neighbour but no note through the door to say which one they left it with. Not a lot of help really.

  • Leewfc09 Lee (@Leewfc09) reported

    @virginmedia @Bexwa Must be a fault up and down the country! Everyone’s seems to keep going off

  • erinava Erin (@erinava) reported

    @k_hunterlaw @virginmedia Cancel it!!!

  • DianeBoardman5 Diane Boardman (@DianeBoardman5) reported

    @virginmedia Can i just also asked when would i get the letter, they said they were sending out, with the verification code on, as they couldn't get into my account. = there was no mention of this, and got into my account anyway,= Absolute liars. What a horrible firm

  • FullbrookJames James Fullbrook (@FullbrookJames) reported

    @nataliesawyer Everywhere seems to be like that now. Can never just talk to a human being lol. Virgin media is the same lol
