    @virginmedia Shocking customer service. Renewed my contract last week , received a loyalty discount, and now received a email with the contract showing full price in excess of £100! 20 plus years of loyalty! #ridiculous #loyalty

    @virginmedia please sort out our internet. We are paying for 300mbs and getting zero to minimal WiFi. Power lines have 0mbs. Have you broken the fibre optic cable? weeks of #Unstable #internet.

  • Dr_Whatson Bob Watson 3.5% 🇪🇺 (@Dr_Whatson) reported from Sale, England

    What the hell going on @virginmedia? My broadband has been going up and down like a yoyo for the past four days. This morning has been especially bad!

  • CatherineR0bb0 Catherine Robinson (@CatherineR0bb0) reported from Leigh, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia my internet keeps turning off and has been for 2 days now. It’s been rebooted and is still doing the same thing. Online checking status says there’s not an issue- there definitely is an issue WN7 postcode

  • MrCRichardson Craig Richardson 🌈 (@MrCRichardson) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia how do you you speak to the specialist complaints dept. I have had a billing issue for over 2 months, that still isn’t resolved? Told last week would get call Monday still waiting...

  • oppositejohn oppositejohn (@oppositejohn) reported from Liverpool, England

    Could @virginmedia be any more crap if they tried? Internet on & off all day. **** Turpin had the courtesy to wear a mask #fail #virginmedia

  • sturichie Irish Stu (@sturichie) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia now 50 minutes on the phone. Absolutely useless customer service. If only I could speak to someone I could cancel

  • samtcartwright Sam Cartwright (@samtcartwright) reported from Golborne, England

    @virginmedia It’s gone off again, says estimated fix time is 4pm tomorrow.. what is going on? Lowton area, warrington. Seriously considering swapping to another provider and only just sorted a new deal with you. I’m not happy.

  • higgin25 dan higgin (@higgin25) reported from Sale, England

  • fay_jon_ 🍃⭕️protector of frogs🍃 (@fay_jon_) reported

    @virginmedia had your customer retention team literally hang up on me when they said they put me through to the cancellation team? Spent an hour trying to get through, and now I have no way of actually cancelling my contract. Feel like I’m being mugged

  • MikeElwellsays Mike Elwell (@MikeElwellsays) reported

    @virginmedia I’d like to move to internet only - advert suggests circa £30/pcm. We have 2 TiVo boxes, I’d lose one. Can you guys do something to help me help you and stay where I am. BT plus sky for same package is £60/month less than my proposed new bill. That gap is ridiculous.

  • ArchieSnC James Archibald (@ArchieSnC) reported

    @virginmedia It's so frustrating because it's SUCH a simple thing to resolve, i just can't get anyone to help and it's costing hours and hours of time on the phone. Please provide ANY ADVICE other than doing what I'm already doing which is wasting my life on the phone

  • JohnMckinnon01 John Mckinnon (@JohnMckinnon01) reported

    @virginmedia broadband out yet again in ph1 area in scotland, this happens way to often for the prices you charge! @Ofcom should investigate your sub par service!

  • ArchieSnC James Archibald (@ArchieSnC) reported

    @virginmedia Why is live chat gone? What alternatives to the phone systems do you offer for resolving problems?

  • PromisesRust Promises Rust (@PromisesRust) reported

    @virginmedia Sure, we went through that for 5 hours, pinged between the same person more than once, security checked successfully multiple times until the final person decided we had failed the latest check and terminate the thread.

  • OsullivanBonita Bonita OSullivan (@OsullivanBonita) reported

    @virginmedia not happy that after 24 hours with no internet, I have been told it won’t be fixed until 11th May! This also means no TV service. Plus the internet on my Virgin phone keeps dropping!

  • ImogeenCooper 𝕴𝖒𝖔𝖌𝖊𝖓 (@ImogeenCooper) reported

    @virginmedia This happens at least once a week and nothing has been done. We have made phone calls etc. We want out of the contract if you are not providing us with the service we were promised by signing an agreement with you.

  • MikeElwellsays Mike Elwell (@MikeElwellsays) reported

    @virginmedia I passed security 3 times! Same password, same form to fill in. Why is it necessary for me to prove who I am repeatedly simply because Virgin staff need to hand over as soon as I ask a question. Maybe you could help? 50% increase is unaffordable, new account pays 80% less

  • pxzpazpxz p a z (@pxzpazpxz) reported

    @virginmedia actually no, you shouldn’t be asking, it’s none of your business but since we’re here already: I can’t hear. gonna help me cancel it now?
