  • smsm1 Shaun McDonald 🇪🇺 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@smsm1) reported from Bramford, England

    @larsz @Azrael808 @virginmedia The crap upload speed that Virgin Media provide and the fact they usually hide it, is why I won't touch them with a barge pole.

  • MichaelGagaHale Michael Gaga-Hale (@MichaelGagaHale) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Now its 1600 tomorrow. Pathetic really, no explication for the fault or reason for delaying fix time.

  • NicholasNeale Nick Neale (@NicholasNeale) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @virginmedia I think they’ve cancelled my service, they didn’t give me s chance to speak again after terminating the call

  • jj_phoenix66 JJ_phoenix (@jj_phoenix66) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia We turned everything off overnight & service had resumed this morning.checked yr svs system last night & there were reported failures in colchester & around the UK.Having been a prior customer o f20 years, whenever it rains then sunny, you always have issues!

  • jimaxyn Jimmy Regan (@jimaxyn) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I spoke to the team, they will arrange a repayment, my issue is that when you want the money, even if it's on the wrong day, you get it instantly, when I demand a refund it's 4-5 business days and that means I incur charges due to your mistake

  • Kegmanplays Keg Man Plays (@Kegmanplays) reported from Ipswich District, England

    Having a couple of Internet issues because @virginmedia think that 0.18mbps is a fine speed for the Internet. Hopefully a router reset will resolve this... And then I'm live

  • Greenking66 Chris Green (@Greenking66) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Hi would it be possible for someone from your customer care based in the uk to phone me please.

  • the_jackson71 Nigel Jackson (@the_jackson71) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @virginmedia I have only been a customer for 2 days and I have to say your customer service is shockingly bad. I have called the helpline and also the text message service and both have been poor and unable to help.

  • Greenking66 Chris Green (@Greenking66) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I done the scan and the signal upstairs is weak and very very slow😕

  • EveScott1 Eve Scott (@EveScott1) reported from Felixstowe, England

    @virginmedia I have rebooted everything even had you send a signal down to my equipment. Spent 5 hours yesterday and tried to call today

  • EveScott1 Eve Scott (@EveScott1) reported from Felixstowe, England

    @virginmedia Yes, having trouble with both, there is just not a good WiFi signal upstIrs. I pay for the highest speed and quite frankly it’s rubish. You have to wat on the phone for hours

  • MichaelGagaHale Michael Gaga-Hale (@MichaelGagaHale) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I’ve done that. Think you just need to find and engineer that can fix it now.

  • BaggedAgain_ ً^ Retired Hater (@BaggedAgain_) reported

    @tam_teee Virgin Media are the biggest scam i swear. Charging mad prices only for their service to not deliver. Cuts out atleast once a day which pisses me off the most

  • mgoomusic M'GOO (@mgoomusic) reported

    @squeakytoy oh god - mine took 2 weeks to hook up with #virginmedia. I was going crazy. And the run around I was getting with customer service.

  • ItsEddyBaker Eddy Baker (@ItsEddyBaker) reported

    Please @virginmedia will anyone at your company answer the phone to me or reply to a tweet, at this point I can't even cancel my service with you because I have no means to serve notice. Do I have to ask my bank to stop the direct debit?

  • XtianAudio Xtian Audio (@XtianAudio) reported

    @virginmedia I tried to cancel my contract yesterday but during my house move you restarted my contract & a manager was meant to call me back to sort. No call back, was just on hold for 30 minutes & got cut off. Can somebody call me back? Just have to cancel the Direct Debit?

  • craigthehunter Craig (@craigthehunter) reported

    @virginmedia I am stuck at home with Covid and your Internet has cut out on me twice in the past two days. I pay a lot of money for this service which isn't fit for purpose at the minute. I expect a better service.

  • jakkbtc //jakkxbt (@jakkbtc) reported

    @virginmedia Ive called and called to no avail, im phoning @bt_uk to get a decebt service.

    @virginmedia Cable was broken when engineer connected me as a new customer from a neighbour, from who I am now ‘leeching’. The engineer said someone would be in touch to sort this out. I currently have a trip hazard cable between my house and the neighbour
