    @virginmedia trying to cancel my subscription for the last 2 hours. It takes forever to reach someone responsible. It is unethical to make this process so hard

    @virginmedia my internet it’s not working this morning, again!. It keeps happening very frequently and when it works it’s very slow! I can’t reach your site ether. Postcode W11

    @virginmedia once again #epicfail no WiFi and after 20 mins on hold to speak to someone I’ve lost the will to live. What’s this **** hold music anyway? I want to cancel my service. You’re not the only game in town. See ya

  • 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.

  • MilesMalaya
    Milesfiles (@MilesMalaya) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia The connection has been terribly weak the past 2 weeks. I keep getting kicked out of video calls. Please could you fix, I need to work.

  • AsadMoghal
    Asad Moghal (@AsadMoghal) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia @Big_Stylo Guys, your service page isn’t working. You need to listen to what your users are saying rather than just repeating the same response

  • barfolo1979
    Bartosz Zakrzewski (@barfolo1979) reported from Hammersmith, England

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

  • nizbit
    Nizbit LFC* (@nizbit) reported from Kensington, England

    @courtloumc @virginmedia Mine was down around 7sh fir half hour , rebooted the router as it wouldn't connect

  • cordellcampbell
    Cordell Campbell (@cordellcampbell) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia second time this week, an outage in W8. Get it together

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

    @virginmedia Just spoke on the phone with an agent called Denande; I explained to her that days ago other Virgin agents reassured us that we would get compensation towards our next bill due to this outage and she said they lied to us and we won’t get any. This whole mess is becoming a circus

  • Housewife6
    Shaz (@Housewife6) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia I have made a formal complaint and i already have the connect app, it does not help me!

  • malaiet
    Adrian Malaiet (@malaiet) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia worst internet provider in UK, appalling service

  • hdl_dl
    helena (@hdl_dl) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Hi, still with the problem. Broken and distorted image and audio

  • globalbribri
    Brigitte RicouBellan (@globalbribri) reported from Paddington, England

    Virgin Media upload 0.5 Mbps (Vs. a 30Mbps + promise) since 13/11. No fix in sight in spite of @virginmedia having acknowledged our pb, at a time where having a decent internet service in your home is a matter of life & death.

  • ImaginaryCard
    MoMo (@ImaginaryCard) reported from Hammersmith, England

    Nothing like @virginmedia's **** broadband coverage to kick off the week. No connection for 1 hour now

  • chrisgreen
    Chris Green (@chrisgreen) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia You know full well that a broken drop cable (which you already know is the issue from the last time you unhelpfully responded) won’t be shown on your service status page. For crying out loud! Your cut-and-paste response is both disrespectful and of no use whatsoever! #epicfail

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

    @Mike_Randazzo1 @virginmedia Thought about it, but it’s most likely a management directive, nothing will happen. All I want is my package, set up the new flat, and not hear about them until we cancel again, hopefully last time.

  • remecampos
    reme campos (@remecampos) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia I had check that a few times but unfortunately it could not be fixed. This is an ongoing problem and it is not on. Also my phone line not working

    @virginmedia why’s you automated payment system not working!!!! 😡

  • AlloquiStrix
    Alloqui Strix (@AlloquiStrix) reported

    @virginmedia Still no refund though! Seems like what you said about registering an outage (which I did on the website) - and my in-law's registered as well, resulted in nothing being refunded to either. When should this be expected?

  • ACraftyOne
    Crafty (@ACraftyOne) reported

    @virginmedia This is the problem I have 5-6 responses from your incompetent customer service team. I have requested a deadlock letter which they refuse to provide. Just to clarify that it is a scam. I paid for the service on my contract as shown, now you are charging me twice.

  • DuggyStand
    Just D. (@DuggyStand) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks guys. Hes okay. But I think he wants to cancel his Sky Sports subscription now That correct @TruthTalkingMav ?

  • iBraderz
    iBraderz (@iBraderz) reported

    @virginmedia Sort your service out now! Internet has been intermittent since the start of may with the fix date being delayed 4 different times. In the last like hour there have been around 5 outages with disconnects lasting several minutes. This is completely unacceptable.

  • ferdi_rezvan
    Ferdi Rezvan (@ferdi_rezvan) reported

    @virginmedia For the last 72 hours the internet goes down around 930 and comes back up in the evening. What is going on? I have sent a DM and not getting a response

    Nick68 (@nickholding01) reported

    @virginmedia Hi. Trying to help my neighbour again. She has had a text saying she has netflix (not sure why, she is 3/4 of the way through her contract) Can she activate this without an e-mail address as she doesn't have one?

  • almacchiato
    Alma Lapuebla-Funk (@almacchiato) reported

    @virginmedia Hi! I noticed our internet has been experiencing service outage frequently this year (17 times). We have a new Wifi Hub but we’re still experiencing the outage. What’s going on?

  • ACraftyOne
    Crafty (@ACraftyOne) reported

    @virginmedia I have dm the complaint number. Please issue the deadlock letter today. I have sent to your ceo as well. I hate to be scammed and so I am going to the ombudsman.
