    @virginmedia Yes at £37 when as a new customer I could get it for £25. I am happy to stick at the £32 but you are not willing to match.

    @virginmedia is there an issue with broadband. Been down all morning

  • HavocTechie Havoc Techie (@HavocTechie) reported from Epping, England

    Hey @virginmedia why in 2022 is it better to leave you and save more than it is to give me a new customer rate.

  • Gertie58 Sharon Hills 💗 (@Gertie58) reported from Dartford, England

    @virginmedia All of our WiFi appliances stopped working at the exact same time. The WiFi keeps trying to connect but just whirls and whirls. No issues with our appliances

    @virginmedia I have not as its seem thatbif you want to reduce your service I get put on hold and then cut off.

  • Gertie58 Sharon Hills 💗 (@Gertie58) reported from Dartford, England

    @virginmedia We have broadband but no WiFi. Rang customer services on Thursday lunchtime to be told that although nothing shows up in the service checker it' known fault and should be back today, now it's almost two days without WiFi, just want update from someone who knows what's happening

  • Miss_Toppin Miss Toppin (@Miss_Toppin) reported from Croydon, England

    @djdymond @virginmedialife @virginmedia And you can only claim compensation for no service not a ****** service that cuts out about once an hour. I can not wait to get out of this contract. I have set a timer. Years and years of broadband with other providers and I have never experienced this.

  • andypurbrick Russ Nightlife (@andypurbrick) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia Can't watch any movies at all as our broadband is down AGAIN

  • Mabs79 Mabs Ahmed (@Mabs79) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia we have had on off outage since last night. The current service status states there are no issues in our area. Our broadband has been down since around 3pm? SE5 postcode

  • janeylees Jane Lees (@janeylees) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia struggling to understand in these days of modern technology why you cant text customers when you know broadband is down in their area & at least give them a heads up #CustomerService #customerexperience

  • andypurbrick Russ Nightlife (@andypurbrick) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia Yes, it's officially not working. Really frustrating, happens about once a month, I work from home blah blah blah complete pain in the ar*e

  • edshots Edward Moore-bius: It's a Moore-bing time!!! (@edshots) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia help please. My broadband isn't working. The wire goes outside the building to the side with the most sunshine. Do you think it's overheated?

  • playgirlc Claire 🤦🎭 prefers animals to humans (@playgirlc) reported from Lambeth, England

    FFS - I wait 7 weeks for #BetterCallSaul to come back on for its final episodes, and fkn Virgin Media is down!!!!! Sort it out, now!!!!

  • DrewSalisbury5 Drew Salisbury (@DrewSalisbury5) reported from Barnet, England

    [1] @virginmedia I have not had access to WiFi for a couple of days now. I have checked the cables, rebooted the Hub and run the final diagnostic tests several times. Still nothing. On the one hand, your system tells me that there is a wider broadband issue in the area and […]

  • amanda11350524 amanda (@amanda11350524) reported from Ilford, England

    @LutzSchueler as CEO of @virgin media i have now been waiting for a call back since the beginning of June despite assurances my billing/package complaint has been escalated and I would receive a manager call back. I have heard and received NOTHING.

  • Mustxkim Mustakim. (@Mustxkim) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia Wi-Fi is SO BAD. I’ve check service status online it says it’s fine but I hasn’t been working for 2 hours now. Wtf is you lot doing. It’s been disturbing for weeks now too.

  • N1CKxP Nick (@N1CKxP) reported from Tottenham, England

    My internet is at a stand still as soon as I upload ANYTHING 🙃 what ******** do I pay Virgin Media for then

  • Miss_Toppin Miss Toppin (@Miss_Toppin) reported from Croydon, England

    @JessOrchardd @virginmedia I think they know their equipment is faulty and will never work properly. This is my fourth broadband provider and I have never experienced this. It was the only broadband instantly available in my new house. I really should have waited.

  • allourlondon Luke Hills (@allourlondon) reported

    @virginmedia Many thanks for your reply. Appreciate you cant guarantee a fault free service but it was more the time estimated to fix it which was is the issue. You can send someone into space but cant fix my broadband within 24 hours as opposed to your estimated 6 days. Cant be right surely.

  • RobertIJenkins Robert Jenkins (@RobertIJenkins) reported

    @virginmedia Thank you but it doesn’t help me get broadband. Try telling my family. Refund please

  • trembabe Jean Tremarco (@trembabe) reported

    @virginmedia why is it so difficult to get in touch with you!! I've spent hours on the phone and also traipsing through the website trying to leave a message! Help!!!!

  • AKMPower1 AK Iconic Classics (@AKMPower1) reported

    @virginmedia most horrendous customer service ever!!! I have been on the phone in total of 6 hours over a period of two days and have been transferred to 13 different people and hung up on more than 6times!!!! I still don’t have a resolution to my issue!!!!

  • ThompsonOnTap David Thompson (@ThompsonOnTap) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, am I able to cancel the TV and phone parts of my bundle and just leave the broadband without any interruption to my service? Thanks.

  • EveRobinson26 Eve Robinson (@EveRobinson26) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, Have been on hold for over an hour trying to speak to someone. Internet has been awful for over a week now. Can anyone help? Or answer the phone at least?

  • ayresie__ Ayresie (@ayresie__) reported

    @BMRSONIC @virginmedia Yeah bro, used to be on a TP link so was convinced that was the issue so I got ethernet straight from my router to my PC, didn't change. Don't think theres anything I can do at this point other than change providers, which won't happen :/

  • Clivebillmore Clive (@Clivebillmore) reported

    @virginmedia so instead of increasing the charges how about refunding us some money for the incorrect broadband service . Getting anything done by customer service is nigh impossible. Worst customer service on the planet

  • BMRSONIC BMR 🎅🏼⛄️ (@BMRSONIC) reported

    @ayresie__ @virginmedia Only other thing you can do your end is make sure there’s not any bent pins or anything on your Ethernet. I upgraded to a cat7 just so it was mega shielded to stop any interference. Could be a problem in the cabinet though 😫

  • stephen_twitt Stephen Carpenter (@stephen_twitt) reported

    @virginmedia This doesn't work, automated junk. Please do as Fergal promised and call to resolve this matter..
