Martin Moscrop 🎺 (@martinmoscrop) reported from Salford, England@LennieThevan @virginmedia That sounds terrible Lennie. If you want to change a plan and save money they go out of their way to be unhelpful. However, if you want to spend more their customers service Is better.

🦔🦊Johnny1983 🦝🐱 (Big Animal Lover🐕🐶🐁) (@JohnnyDude1983) reported from Bury, England@virginmedia Hi. Is there a difference between cat 5E & cat6 & cat7 ethernet performance wise on your network 🤔. I'm using cat 6 ethernet from my hub 3.0 to your provided powerline booster . Then from powerline booster to my V6 box. I'm using cat7 ethernet from hub 3.0 to V6 🤔

Elliot ⚽️🏈🎮 (@SourEnvy) reported from Preston, England@virginmedia Afternoon, I have an iPad with a Virgin SIM card that I no longer use. Obviously still need to pay off the monthly device fee but am I able to cancel the SIM plan?
-
Rick Leeming - Beaker (@BeakerRick) reported from Preston, England@virginmedia Yes and yes. I even wiped it totally a week or so ago. My wife as an iPhoneSE and is experiencing the same problem.
-
Laser Lux, Wigan. (@TheWiganParky) reported from Haydock, England@virginmedia It says there's no issues at the moment, but I'm only getting 13mbps.
-
kevin.james (@pillbo01) reported from Bolton, England@virginmedia No as you person on 150 said you do not have a customer service that I could talk too. Your engineer said it was a fault at the box in street so I don’t know when it is fixed. But it’s not improve in the last month
-
SLT4K 👨🏻💻 🇬🇧 (@Slt4K) reported from Urmston, England@virginmedia / Super disappointed after calling to renew my contract and as an existing customer you can’t offer anything half as good as a new customer. Shocking customer retention strategy 🤯
-
Scott Henderson (@Hendy14) reported from Salford, England@virginmedia Is there a problem with your phone system? My Mum has been trying to call for 24 hours on numerous occasions to change package but gets cut off every single time. Your mentions suggest this is happening to lots of others too. Can somebody arrange a callback please?

zach close YT 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈 (@ZachcloseYT) reported from St Helens, EnglandYou say you care about your customers and if you did you would fix your ******* **** Internet problems that everyone is having and don't even bother replying @virginmedia
-
Ducky 🇺🇦 🎃 👻 (@duckyblog) reported from Tyldesley, England@virginmedia Issues with all VM services in my area says expected fix by 4:40pm today.
-
Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England@virginmedia See thread above, nothing changes except the time of the estimated fix. It must be very localised as not everyone in my area is affected. So if it is damaged cables, I haven’t seen anyone out repairing them over the weekend, it’s a joke
-
Tim Cooke 🇺🇦 (@timmycooke) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia Both wired and wireless. We've had 8 engineers out, a rewire, new hub and still endless drop outs. Was told finally it was an upload issue from the amp that supplied the box on the street. But still we're having issues. The 150 number is joke, make it simple!!!

-
Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England@VirginMedia Received message. Now not accepting my email address. I have one only. My problem is with the remote control which is activated by pressing 2 buttons when they light up. Have had nothing but trouble with one remote for one TV. Your communication us not helpful.

MELISSA MET SWERVE 🥺😭😫🥰 (@Melissnahhhhh) reported@virginmedia What's happening with the virgin TV v6 tivo box? I know the streaming channels are going on June 2nd but is it the whole box shutting down if you don't upgrade? Cause we don't want the 360 box in our house
-
Paul Douglass (@dougbowski) reported@virginmedia Why is dealing with your customer services such a pain? Contract renewal for broadband only - £84 nearly double. Get in touch, 3 different departs, offers from £77 down to £44 then up to £53 all for the same deal. I’m thinking I will just leave for @Vodafone
-
@bling_pot (@bling_pot) reported@virginmedia Can you explain how you can even justify increasing your broadband service to over double for a single household who limits what they use WiFi for?!
-
Graham Style (@grahamstyle) reportedI'm not surprised @O2 is the worst rated complaint company. 6th March open an account with Virgin Media. 22th went on holiday, O2 just decided without notice to close the account. Been back for over a month, calling O2 every single day, complaints and fraud, nothing. Any help?
-
Chris J (@Chris_Jones80) reported@JoyB40 @virginmedia Same here, when I try to use the service checker, it just says its unavailable. I'm guessing it's being hammered.
-
Trevor (@TRSafcw) reported from Headley, England@Leemhammond @virginmedia Same on Now TV, must be a Sky issue.
-
Ashron Designs (@AshronDesigns) reported@virginmedia I have decided to cancel after nearly 20 years! Tried live chat and all they did was reduce the package to reduce the price.
