    @virginmedia Try actually looking at your previous comms on Twitter with someone before making such an inappropriate and unhelpful response! At the end of the day, if you are not going to help, why are you here?

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

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

    @AlexanderTroup @virginmedia I guess there is a retention quota of some sort, that needs to be hit for some big wig get a big fat bonus. Especially, since we staying a customer anyway, just different account.

    @virginmedia Hi, no service in W12. Router has been rebooted but still just flashing green. Been like this on/off for 24 hours.

    @virginmedia how long is tv and broadband going to be down today in the Kensington area?

  • ImaginaryCard

    The audacity of #virginmedia to send a letter to me stating that their prices are going up in March after months of rubbish service... 🚮

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

    @virginmedia After the two hour chat, it was finally resolved. Wife have arranged an internet connection to our new flat before this(with Virgin btw), took 5 minutes. Lot of hoops to jump through to cancel, when I just wanted to get it over with. No offers, just cancel.

  • Anthony_Lonres
    Anthony Payne (@Anthony_Lonres) reported from Kensington, England

    To all my friends who recommended @virginmedia please don’t contact me again. They are without doubt the worst company I have had the misfortune of being a customer to. If you’re considering them. Don’t.

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

    @jexxicamunro @virginmedia OMG this is so bad, especially when working from home in a lockdown!

    @virginmedia outage in Kensington....again.

  • MissMikaSimmons
    MIKA SIMMONS (@MissMikaSimmons) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Hi - my wifi still isn’t working. I’ve texted you and now tried to call you to cancel with no answer from either. Can I ask where is the money from your customers being spent?

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

    @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 Can you just send a technician over to us? I’d assume you’d prioritise a customer that has been left with no Internet for 5 days? I’m not going to post the issue on an online forum, I’m asking you to provide support please.

  • WoleAdesemoye
    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

    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply, but unfortunately this workaround isn’t suitable. My father is nearly 80 and would not even know what an app is, let alone be able to download one, sign in, enable location services or use a web player.

    @virginmedia... All replies about red button issue are 'working on getting it fixed'..... Sky boxes working fine.... Been a week now.... Bit of a joke aren't you?? What you going to do to make your customers happy cos empty apologies isn't doing it...

    Absolute joke @virginmedia red button not working for the matches🖕🏻

  • Laitty
    Graeson Laitt (@Laitty) reported

    @virginmedia He relies on his television to watch Sky Sports. That is the service he pays for, and at the moment that service has failed him. Please can you confirm what the actual fault is and when you expect Sky Sports through Virgin TV to be working again?
