    @virginmedia I cancelled my broadband subscription in October and Virgin have kept charging me for landline although other provider inform me that they are providing service I just want to close the Virgin account

  • DerrickSWB
    Derrick Brown (@DerrickSWB) reported from Lower Clapton, England

    @virginmedia Can someone advise how I fix the Wi-Fi pod which isn’t working with my new router - I had to upgrade at extra cost to receive new kit as the lead time was shorter than getting a competitor in #ThisIsWrong

  • paulstevenlewis
    Paul Lewis (@paulstevenlewis) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia how do I connect to London Underground WiFi now you have turned off your own hotspots? Hopefully you are not just depriving all Virgin Media customers of the service! Especially as you are putting all your prices up!

    @virginmedia Green up/down arrow flashing and router restarting

    @virginmedia how do you have the worst customer service ? Will just have to book a technician to sort out issues with account login.

    @virginmedia DB was dealing with this issue but has not responded since lunchtime Friday

    @virginmedia Even this link isn't working. Takes me to the auto bot/live chat messaging service which has no use at all as no one is actually responding.

    @virginmedia It’s appalling they can act so quickly What about the speed issue?

    @virginmedia Whats is happening ?? Been put in a queue only to have the CV phone put down on me twice without even talking to an operator ? What do I need to do to speak to someone??

    Or #virginmedia wiping the Wi-Fi network name every other month on the 2G and 5G saaaaaaaaaake

    cont/- Every 2/3 hours you say that it is going to be fixed within three or four hours. It has not. We could not give a **** about £8 compensation per day. You are costing us thousands of pounds in lost revenue for those of us working from home. More @virginhelp @virginmedia

    Cate McLaurin (@madebycatem) reported from Camden Town, England

    Hello @virginmedia I get that things break sometimes. Do you think there’s a way you cld keep customers informed about how long it might take to fix it? I’ve tried your status page which tells me both that there’s no issue in our area and also that there is an issue . .

  • RogerHighfield
    Roger Highfield (@RogerHighfield) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia My broadband is down again - area21. Any idea of when it will be fixed?

  • lucyfrancis_tri
    lucy francis (@lucyfrancis_tri) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia I sent you the screengrab, it says “your mailbox is not available at the moment”. Can you confirm what the issue is with your mail server?

  • BBLn15
    Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia I presume so. I was quite clear I wanted to leave Virgin as I was not happy with the services provided even though they tried to keep me as a customer. I feel Virgin are making it as difficult as possible and I am paying for it

  • guyrleech
    Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia Here we go, phones again. This is the 21st century where other communication methods are much more efficient. I'll be surprised if they do respond to me and actually help with my 2 open support tickets (both failing your SLA)

  • sharlewis58
    Shar 💙 #IStandWithUkraine (@sharlewis58) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia the tv connection has had a fault since 8th June. You are "working on it", & each day checking status the date to fix is moved further away. You do not refund for lack of service why is that? And text updates are not received. And its STILL not working.

    @virginmedia bring back customer service to the UK. Philippines is a joke!

    @virginmedia Still no broadband and now the estimate is over a week !?! Terrible

    Beware of @virginmedia they lie and change your bill without warning. Then multiple assistants will lie & says it's fixed but they will still charge you. If you call you'll be on hold for 30 mins tell them all the right security answers but they will say they are wrong & not help

    Has Virgin Media gone down?

  • formerprisoner_
    Reformed Prisoner (@formerprisoner_) reported

    . @virginmedia are the most useless, care-less, let down of a company in existence. If you are considering going with them for broadband. Please don’t. Their technicians do half a job, cancel a thousand times and their customer support is outsourced to some foreign country.

    Golam Rabbani (@rabbani_golam) reported

    @virginmedia such poor service from virgin media. Called about renewal as I can see online for 1gb broadband and anytime chatter for £37.99 yet my renewal for the same package is £58 a month. How do you justify that and they cannot match but would rather lose a customer.

    Simon Brennan (@Simon909) reported

    @virginmedia Another weekend and another broadband outage in Fareham, do believe this is the fourth in succession in my area. Please sort it out as it’s becoming too predictable. Funny thing is you want me to renew my package at £80.00 per mth, not worth it and looking elsewhere
