  • xkhan97 (@xkhan97) reported

    Virgin Media have got to be the worst, why am I having to use mobile data at home?????

  • AutisticAdhd Autistic/ADHD (@AutisticAdhd) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve had no internet for the last 24 hours, when I check local postcode area on your website it says there’s no problems, when I phone the service status number it says there are very complex problems taking longer than usual. Why the disparity?

  • sirtrevsheader matt (@sirtrevsheader) reported

    @virginmedia TV service just stopped for no reason. Your service is useless. £70 a month for basic TV and Internet that only serves 1 room

  • taiseeerrr Tazerutd (@taiseeerrr) reported

    @virginmedia please ******* fix my internet please 😭😭😭

  • Lyndseyemmashaw Lyndsey Shaw (@Lyndseyemmashaw) reported

    @GetMeAManager @virginmedia It’s all booked even though I asked 5 people to cancel, I now have to call again and try and get the point across so no, no one forced there way into my home, however they are forcing this account and set it up without my consent

  • certifiedkraut george (@certifiedkraut) reported

    Virgin Media, allow it and fix up you *****...I’m tryna watch my 1 AM YouTube

  • jsmkxo j (@jsmkxo) reported

    @TCH5122 @virginmedia What area, may I ask? Our internet is down too :( I give up contacting Virgin

  • rob9900 Rob nffc (@rob9900) reported

    @Cee_GK5 @virginmedia Exactly same is happened to me... got a discounted rate in May and still not had a correct bill since then... piss poor

  • WilliamTite WT (@WilliamTite) reported

    @virginmedia Should also add that the online "fix it" tool was not helpful either - just helpfully identified that there was a problem and didn't provide any resolution beyond "check the cables are plugged in" and "restart the router". Neither of those had any effect.

  • The_IT_Hedgehog Peter (@The_IT_Hedgehog) reported

    @TxtDrive @virginmedia I have the same problem
