  • austenblakemore austen blakemore (@austenblakemore) reported from Stapleford, England

    I’m absolutely ******* fuming with this service @virginmedia it is beyond a joke I’m talking to people that are literally using a script and a dictionary

  • acmtix 𝘼𝙙𝙖𝙢🐰 (@acmtix) reported from Eastwood, England

    @virginmedia I don't want content, I don't have your TV or your phone just broadband. So to increase this cost like this means that next time it comes to review my connectivity I will simply leave your service and move to a more competitive service that doesn't sneakily raise prices mid term.

  • austenblakemore austen blakemore (@austenblakemore) reported from Stapleford, England

    My #broadband is so shit @virginmedia I can actually make brew before a page opens !! I’m completely fed up of this ridiculous speed

  • austenblakemore austen blakemore (@austenblakemore) reported from Stapleford, England

    Nothing and I mean nothing but problems with @virginmedia ever since your agent TRIED to help, got cut off and never called back my @TPLINKUK Powerline adapter doesn’t work. THE worst experience calling up your customer service I’m so angry 😡

  • ryau3 Ron Yau (@ryau3) reported from Repton, England

    @virginmedia Reboot will help for a while but have to stop all in the family who still have signal for streaming radio, Xbox or watching Tv on the TiVo every time. How inconvenient is this for all due to a @unreliable service provided by @virginmedia. Had many other issues before as well...

  • mattdowning5 matt downing (@mattdowning5) reported from Selston, England

    @virginmedia just ordered a free WiFi booster, but received contract stating I have committed for another 12 months. I don't want to go ahead on these terms so won't be signing, can you advise how I cancel this upgrade within cooling off period. Thank you

  • tomthecrook tomus 🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆 (@tomthecrook) reported from Radcliffe on Trent, England

    @virginmedia broadband down yet again for the 6th time this week. No faults in our area on the website 🙄🙄 sort it out

  • fryingpantheist Charlotte 🐨 (@fryingpantheist) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @virginmedia Okay, so on Thursday we were told to cancel the order and reorder it. We’ve done that so that we could pick it up today and have heard nothing about the delivery. Also, the person we spoke to over the phone on Thursday called us liars over the price we paid.

  • JaceFowler Jason Fowler (@JaceFowler) reported from Annesley, England

    @virginmedia absolute joke, on hold for 1 hour and 8 mins to tell u that I wanna leave for shit service

  • midgetgem1980 MelanieSmith (@midgetgem1980) reported from Heanor and Loscoe, England

    @virginmedia every sodding night at 7! No internet, connection dropping out, router rebooting itself 😡😡😡I think another provider is the answer if you can’t sort your shit out! I pay for fibre I expect fibre, not old dial up crap that took ages to connect & dropped every 2secs

  • Neilelse1974 Neil else (@Neilelse1974) reported from Chellaston, England

    @virginmedia That does not answer the question I spoke to your representative, ‘what is the best price for loyalty you can offer me for the bigger bundle ‘ can you please help me on this. Thanks

  • ryau3 Ron Yau (@ryau3) reported from Repton, England

    Writing this using O2 mobile network at home because my @virginmedia fibre is @unreliable. Cannot get to the internet or stream tv but on mobile data it was effortless. Considering going back to BT as they seem to be more consistent.

  • ChrisMaltby Chris Maltby (@ChrisMaltby) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @nfourtythree @virginmedia No, still down. Glad you tweeted, sounds like a local issue rather than just mine. Called Virgin but couldn’t be bothered to hang on for 10 mins. Hopefully it’ll be fixed by the morning.

  • ryau3 Ron Yau (@ryau3) reported from Repton, England

    @virginmedia I have a hub 3.0 and showing white light. No change to the light with the issue.

  • niijonodhg Jono Bradley (@niijonodhg) reported from Ilkeston, England

    I had to switch to my mobile network for this tweet to send. Sort it out @virginmedia it's becoming a joke.

  • rokagainstass Tom Prince (@rokagainstass) reported from Castle Donington, England

    @virginmedia Had your broadband for over a month now . Two days out of which it has been down for hours (like today) and speed inconsistent

  • ryau3 Ron Yau (@ryau3) reported from Repton, England

    @virginmedia I am having the issue now where I cannot update my apps or use twitter through the Wi-fi. But I am streaming tv. @frustrated. Why do I suffer and stop to reboot the router and paying for unreliable service!!

  • nfourtythree Nathaniel Hammond (@nfourtythree) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @virginmedia Hi, yea rebooted a few times. Left it a while etc. Service says everything should be fine, but by the looks of Twitter others in my area are having issue too

  • nfourtythree Nathaniel Hammond (@nfourtythree) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @virginmedia Still having issues even though I received a text saying it would be sorted this morning in NG2 area code 30

  • hollibob hollibob (@hollibob) reported from Stapleford, England

    @virginmedia having cancelled and be told no more payments will be taken out of account I today had a bill for £129 which I am told will come out of my account end of May currently on hold for 47 mins when she told me it would be 5 mins BAD BAD customer service

  • Reececlarke21 Reece Clarke (@Reececlarke21) reported

    @VirginMediaIE having a problem with my virgin media tv

  • CathPuri Cath Puri (@CathPuri) reported

    @virginmedia Had YEARS of poor broadband & tv, with many new routers, engineer visits & complaints with no improvement. I found out that VM have a solution to the issues - their Pod Mesh system. But I have to pay extra for it, after years of paying full price for poor service!!

  • chlodolmio chlo (@chlodolmio) reported

    Moved into my new home 8 days ago, (I’d phoned the movers team at @virginmedia 3 days prior to moving, to inform them and transfer the service), I brought my own Hub to the new house and did everything I needed to (1 of 2)

  • erpheath erpheath (@erpheath) reported

    @virginmedia I suppose VirginMedia’s conception of ‘as soon as we can’ is different to mine. People rely on your service to conduct business. What this shows is that VirginMedia can’t be counted on to provide adequate support to keep customers connected.

  • Stevie306 Steve D (@Stevie306) reported

    @virginmedia @SamsungHelpUK up until yesterday I could control my VM Tivo Box with my Samsung TV remote but its stopped working. I've tried setting up again via TV but not working. Advice please?

  • CooroSnowFox 🦊 Auro D. Hikoshi 🦊 (@CooroSnowFox) reported

    @AndyThorneMcr @nikoexxtra Hmmm virgin media I can't talk I do have them and It's not that bad but don't think they are moving into anything other than o2

  • SwanHive Swan Hive (@SwanHive) reported

    @virginmedia your service is awful. Down for the 4th time this week. 3 engineer bookings canceled in a row with no explanation.

  • JigneshSachdev1 Jignesh Sachdev (@JigneshSachdev1) reported

    @virginmedia: I am looking for broadband only- OX43BX, M100- £24 monthly & would like to know max edf charges. Contacted many times but not getting concrete response on max EDF. Asked sales team, one called-text me, max £80 charge & other said max £240. Looking for help on this

  • camjeffers camjeffers (@camjeffers) reported

    @cinderellao9 @virginmedia That’s mad! They keep telling me I’m entitled to nothing for some reason! I think if I’m paying for a service it should be provided!

  • WesHiles Wes Hiles (@WesHiles) reported

    @virginhelp @virginmedia Still no help...
