    Wolé Adesemoye (@WoleAdesemoye) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia is by far the worst TV, broadband and telephone service I’ve received in 20. Customer service is appalling. I was just on the phone and the customer service personal just hung up on me. I just can’t wait to leave and go back to @SkyUK. #avoid #virginmedia

    @atnori_ @virginmedia Yep, experienced just recently :D I am an extremely patient person… I properly lost it today 🙃 At least the damn thing is cancelled though.

    @virginmedia Why is the broadband service down today?! It’s been patchy all week. For the price we are paying every month, we expect better than this… #virginmedia

    @virginmedia how can I contact u? Nothing works online, no text sent, calls are not answered. I have been trying to contact u for two weeks. I am moving overseas and need to cancel unless you have service in USA. #virginmedia

    @virginmedia How's that gonna fix my problem? Twice in 2 weeks I've had no service. Can I cancel my contract if I'm in the 1st month?

  • iamAleFerrara
    Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Hello there, it’s past 12pm and we’re still without any Internet connection (and getting desperate now). I’d like to stress that this isn’t an intermittent signal issue but a total loss of service as we’ve been having no Internet connection AT ALL since last Friday. HELP PLEASE!

    @virginmedia Your 08000643777 or 03454541111 are not working properly! They not go back to the beginning after my area reference!!!

  • GaborPfalzer
    Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @BigupJeff @virginmedia Yeah, unfortunately. We are okay with the service, that’s why we kept it in the new one, but the customer service is a joke. Had @Hyperoptic once, was absolutely brilliant. Too bad it’s rarely available.

  • Jo_The_Waiter
    CALUM GRAY (@Jo_The_Waiter) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia It was fixed about 1:30am but this is happening a lot since I moved to Hammersmith. But you never tell us what the problem is or give any compensation. I couldn’t do anything. Even my PS4 wouldn’t allow me to play games as they connect online. No TV nothing

    I feel down as my @virginmedia internet.

    @virginmedia I’m sorry but we have been facing a total loss of service since we have no Internet connection whatsoever!

    Anyone else having an issue making calls on @virginmedia mobile? Is this a known issue?

    Edward Baran (@edward_baran) reported from Kensington, England

    @AsadMoghal @virginmedia That’s of course if you get a reply from a genuine account . Lots of scammer accounts reply to Vm complaint tweets - because there are so very many online complaints #virginmediadown

    @virginmedia @mrslooker Problem continues at E15 2BT. Any advice??

    Like night follows day, it gets a bit hot and @virginmedia goes down. Useless #virginmediadown #virginmedia

    @virginmedia internet has been disconnected (for 2 weeks) Impossible to get help via cust svcs as for some reason they don’t understand the situation. Help!

  • GabrielaLungu
    Gabriela Lungu (@GabrielaLungu) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia it’s been over one month of really poor or inexistent broadband service in London W11. I hope you won’t charge us for the last month.

    @mandychoccy @virginmedia Sounds potentially like a comprehensive set of fixes. Ideal solution is to have a tech onsite when you have the problem. Easier said than done, though.

    @virginmedia shut up all ur gonna do is boost my signal in reality it does fck all

  • mandychoccy
    Coffinsandme 击🦇🐀 (@mandychoccy) reported

    @virginmedia Yet again having issues with pixelation and signal. This has now been going on for 2 years. 4 box changes, all new wiring in and out, 2x new hubs, new cables to main cab, main cab supposedly cleaned up, other local ex users disconnected from cab. I am so frustrated.

  • donna2904
    Donna Tudor (@donna2904) reported

    @keithapearson @virginmedia Couldn’t agree more. I’ve spent roughly 6 hours on chat talking to foreign robots and got nowhere. They should be fined for not having a uk call centre. I’ve gave my 30 days notice after 19 years as a customer. They’re a disgrace.

  • OfficialAdamB
    AdamB® (@OfficialAdamB) reported

    @mobily_uk @virginmedia You get a better deal when u 1st joined then after your in there trap u get shafted, price rise, price rise until u ring them then it drops. Then rinse and repeat. Same ****.

  • gadgetweetin
    Gadge (@gadgetweetin) reported

    @virginmedia last month I called up to specifically cancel my TV/BB/Phone contract which ends on 5th May, before the price triples. I started a new BB only contact. This morning I am infuriated to see my bundle has not been cancelled at all & I have been charged for it😡😡

  • al_crew
    AL.Crew (@al_crew) reported

    .@virginmedia your award winning broadband in area 06 has not been working since 3rd April... Intermittent signal in your area, 12 hours of broadband & no wifi for 2 weeks is not acceptable, you should be paying compensation for loss of service! #virginmedia
