  • Spinnofflondon Spinnofflondon (@Spinnofflondon) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia This outage has been going on a month. I sincerely don’t hold out any hope it will be fixed by 3 today but let’s see shall we?

  • LynetteSzeto Lynette Szeto-Martinez (@LynetteSzeto) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia what is happening with the internet? I am on work calls and it annoying when the internet goes down. #internetdown

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia @garysmartin Your service isn’t even worth half the money you charge

  • FaizYaz Y A Z F A I Z (@FaizYaz) reported from Camden Town, England

    It for me and SURPRISE SURPRISE she was able do it no problem. I just kept refusing to be put on hold. Initially she muted me and probably wanted me to hang up but I stayed on the call. IM FINALLY FREE from Virgin and will happily never use their service again 💯👋🏼 #virginmedia

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia @prtmunro Communication with bots? Automated systems? I tried all. My landline still not working. And no one got back to me. Your customer service policy comes close to fraud

  • sunnydeo Sunny Deo (@sunnydeo) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia you have one hour to respond with a solution. 5 - hours spent on call centres 3 - failed outdoor pre-installations. 2 - failed indoor wifi installations. 1st - time customer. This how you treat customers? No solution today, fine, I’ll go with @skytv

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @Devylonely @virginmedia Try and cancel if you can. Read through the review on Twitter. People can’t get through to cancel. Get another small provider who have a real phone number to call and people who can help you.

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @suzy1978 @virginmedia Let me tell you, leaving is made impossible by Virgin. I tried every Avenue and had to cancel my direct debit as a last resort

  • vishr83 vishal.rehan (@vishr83) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia this is the third day in a week where we have lost WiFi and I have to use my phone data. I am not happy with this service and the money we are paying and getting no messages from your company

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia I recommend to anyone never to consider taking out a Virgin Contract. Be careful to read other customers reviews. Once you sign up there is no way to leave again. You’ll be holding in the waiting queue until the end of your life.

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia That is a lie and your as should be reported. If your wifi works it early gets up to the speed that you charge me for. You also fail to mention that you slow down speeds when everyone is watching. So many disappointments when the wheel start spinning

  • Deano1969 Deano (@Deano1969) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia Broadband down again? SW12 #virginmedia

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Anyone thinking about using Virgin Media read all the negative feedback first. This company does not deliver the speeds it promises and worse the services are disrupted and unstable. Impossible to get through to customer services and impossible to cancel.

  • AgneseRovati Agnese Rovati ✨ English-Italian Translator ✨ (@AgneseRovati) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia worst internet provide and customer service ever!!! You’re honestly the absolute worst. We’re told that due to the useless internet for weeks on end, we could leave without fees. And now that we call to cancel you want to charge us?!?! Pathetic

  • Mark_Phillips66 Mark Phillips 💙 (@Mark_Phillips66) reported from Camden Town, England

    Yet more #virginmedia problems in NW5 - every day this week @virginmedia

  • LonerganChris Chris Lonergan (@LonerganChris) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia I’ve spent 1 hour on the phone trying to Cancel my service as the house has been sold! Both times it’s rung and nothing on the other end can you assist without me having to waste more time?

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Still no reply from any of your online contacts - unacceptable customer service

  • CMS200 Chris S (@CMS200) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Not very helpful. If your company can’t fix the issue, why would the community be able to? Spent another hour on the phone again today, again being told I will get a call back in 45 mins. It didn’t happen. Still no email!

  • Mark_Phillips66 Mark Phillips 💙 (@Mark_Phillips66) reported from Camden Town, England

    @TitaLulah @virginmedia They’re very poor - in service. They must be rolling in cash though.

  • dickerboy Martin (@dickerboy) reported from Merton, England

    How can I speak to someone @virginmedia about broadband issues? The automated call handling doesn’t address my problem.

    @virginmedia your customer service is one of the worst I’ve ever been involved with! 😡🤬🤬

  • jaybroek Jason Broekhuizen (@jaybroek) reported

    @virginmedia any update on issues in Edinburgh? Well into second day of complete blackout and the expected fix time is no longer being updated…

  • Stephen_Neal Stephen Neal (@Stephen_Neal) reported

    @virginmedia Now spoken to human on 150 and they say that the 150 and website not matching is because it's a 'known outage' so not 'a fault'. Which doesn't make things any clearer when my 1Gbs connection is currently <30Mbs...

  • JRainhorn Judith Rainhorn (@JRainhorn) reported

    @virginmedia 22 minutes waiting🤬🤬🤬 Are you unable to explain why you cheat people #VirginMediaCheat? You suggested a webchat and never came. Shall I trust you again? Waiting for a new suggestion

  • Simo_Morris Simon Morris (@Simo_Morris) reported

    @virginmedia hi - watching Sky Sports Cricket is unwatchable - very poor signal. Anything I can do on my side to improve (before England are all bowled out preferably!)

  • JeanneBartram Jasmine the European Cat (@JeanneBartram) reported

    @virginmedia Well thank you John - I am sure you have done your best to help I have learned never to add on any services to VM package, Because If at a later date you wish to cancel that service you will be punished by VM I didn't have a good experience with TIVO either. Never again.

  • fifelass66 Donna Milne 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇺🇦 (@fifelass66) reported

    @virginmedia No it doesn’t help.

  • WackoFerg Andy (@WackoFerg) reported

    @virginmedia That they would reset my password. The password is not the problem but that I can’t use the same email address that was set up the last time. Can you not completely clear the last contract from 18 months ago so I can just register with the new contract and my email address?

  • miffybarker Miffy B 🇪🇺 (@miffybarker) reported

    @virginmedia No, it’s no where near the router. The connection isn’t the problem, it seems to be itv authentication

  • JJBooker J Booker (@JJBooker) reported

    @virginmedia Less channels for same price is hardly the way to retain customers. Surely, a main rule of business is that : it is 10 times harder to gain a customer than retain them, so try not to lose them?
