    Walking home saw a Virgin Media contractors truck turning off the main road, there's a thousand places it could be going, but let's guess. YES!! Outside our house when I get back. It's like flies to a cow pat. They never leave us alone😡

  • AdamNutt247

    @virginmedia I've had no Internet since last night. Is there a local issue thats being worked on or can an engineer be sent out to resolve the issue? LA3 area.

  • apocolypse2015
    pfarri (@apocolypse2015) reported from Kirkby Lonsdale, England

    So, having just moved house to Cumbria, i contact #virginmedia to transfer my broadband, which they said a few weeks ago "would not be a problem" Now they tell me they dont operate around my new address, and are now trying to charge me £250 for breaking my contract. Any advice ??

  • apocolypse2015
    pfarri (@apocolypse2015) reported from Kirkby Lonsdale, England

    @virginmedia Already done. Annoyed that we were assured that we could transfer our service to our new house, despite me querying this with the operator at the time. A note to this effect is also on our call log. Surely it is you who is now breaking the contract, not me.

    @GBateson23 @virginmedia I’m coming to the end of my Virgin Media contract and I’ve got to ring them to get the price down and I’m dreading it 😭

  • andrewmolyneux
    @andrewmolyneux@mastodon.world (@andrewmolyneux) reported from Halton, England

    @virginmedia I called yesterday - after 2 calls totalling about 80 minutes the customer service person said she couldn’t process the termination due to a technical error and would call me back in half an hour. I haven’t heard anything since then.

  • astlecw
    justChris 🏍🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@astlecw) reported from Carnforth, England

    Virgin Media's contractors back again, digging up the road for about the 10th time. Every time they go, we just KNOW they'll be back - might be next week, might be 2 months, but they will be back. They never leave us alone 🤬🤬🤬

  • DarrenGotham

    @virginmedia crap customer service, we said that we wanted to switch provider, you said we would have to give 30 days notice, fair enough, and now you have just disconnected us anyway 🤬 poor comms from your Team, The Virgin Media Pizza 🍕 would have pubes as a topping

    @andrewmolyneux@mastodon.world (@andrewmolyneux) reported from Halton, England

    OK I haven’t tweeted in months but I’ve now been trying to cancel my @virginmedia broadband since Friday. First via WhatsApp, then I gave up and phoned but I’m getting the runaround. Please let me cancel your overpriced service and hopefully never do business with you again 😡

  • nomis1974
    Simon Blakeway (@nomis1974) reported from Middleton, England

    @virginmedia same problem in Lancaster. TV has gone down. Program guide still works just no picture. Same on the App, it says my Internet connection is poor even though its over 200mps. Still got fibre obviously

    @virginmedia What is the broadband status at LA4 6EP please? The system appears to have gone down.

  • JohntheJudgeEsq
    John Marshall (@JohntheJudgeEsq) reported

    @virginmedia The problem that I have at the moment is that your service keeps dropping. 1 minute I’m getting 150 Mb per second, and later on nothing when you change to whoever your optimal provider is.I have rebooted the router on many occasions but it doesn’t solve the problem.

  • KatHarris42
    Katrina Harris MA (@KatHarris42) reported

    @virginmedia for 7 days I've had intermittent broadband, it's affecting my work. Registered loss of service, your status shows it is broken. Your compensation is full 2 full days of outtage, so will I be refunded. Glad have @EE as mobile contract for back up but shouldnt have to

  • NigelClark78
    Nigel Clark (@NigelClark78) reported

    @virginmedia It is a big inconvenience as we are dependent on the service for our TV services too. So no TV for the family and members of the family very dependent on the internet for work, coursework etc and our mobile datas are taking a massive hit. Not really acceptable.

  • clement_palle
    clementp (@clement_palle) reported

    @virginmedia This is absolutely pathetic service and unacceptable!

  • NicolaMcC_04
    Nicola (@NicolaMcC_04) reported

    @virginmedia I will call this number - can you confirm why I was given the automated number to start with when it was clear I wanted to report a fault? Whenever I have to contact you guys the service leaves a lot to be desired

  • richev48
    Evan Richards (@richev48) reported

    @virginmedia Issues as above here- Whatsapp support seemed to continuously loop back to the Bot. Gave up after 5 hours. Error code MA1/15/40 when trying to install 360- what do I need to do pls?

  • s0phieshepherd
    Sophie (@s0phieshepherd) reported

    @virginmedia There's no issues in the area, you cancelled our contract (without notifying us) a week earlier than it was supposed to finish, so we're without WiFi and your customer services team refuse to escalate the issue

  • NicolaMcC_04
    Nicola (@NicolaMcC_04) reported

    @virginmedia can you confirm if there is an issue with wifi in the G67 area? Wifi has been constantly going down every 10 mins since last night which is unacceptable considering people work from home. Cannot get through on the online chat and the service status says no issue

  • davidruddell
    David Ruddell (@davidruddell) reported

    @virginmedia Morning, we cancelled our contract last night and have now rec 3 calls and a msg asking why we’re leaving and how you can get us back. I’m flattered but can you stop? What if I say it’s not you it’s me? Will that stop the calls. (Constant price rises didn’t help!!)
