    @virginmedia I’ve already done that. It says no known issues.

    @virginmedia An ongoing account issue. All I’m trying to do is sort it out. Your staff accepted my call today and then hung up after 17 minutes of hold time.

    @virginmedia I agree they wont but if you see the loss i am getting of -82dbm from being 7 metres away surely a pod will expand coverage into that area with the poor signal strength? If i stand next door to the router i get my expected speeds - thanks

    @virginmedia it says on your app the servers are down? Is this likely to last long

    James Cunningham (@jamescun) reported from London Colney, England

    @doismellburning @danpalmer I have a self-hosted box with DigitalOcean in London. My use case is isolation from local networks and ISP privacy (I know I’m just moving the problem, but I trust DO more than Virgin Media). For those cases, VPN providers are a haven for data collection, so no.

    @virginmedia Hub which they said will take 3 days!! 🙄🙈😡 I have had a catalogue of issues with Virgin over the years. I expect some recompense & I don't mean the '£8 after 48 hours has passed' insult I was told today. Been with Virgin since you took over NTL. Where's the customer loyalty?

  • Dan_lutonbear
    dan@randrhotrodimports (@Dan_lutonbear) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia Same as usual. Bots. Round and round in circles I want to cancel virgin media. Maybe you will contact me when I cancel any further direct debit payment 😡😡😡

    Vision Elite Media (@vision_e_media) reported from Hertfordshire, England

    @virginmedia how can you customer service offer me a new contract £25 more than a new customer contract and then try blame the current economical situation?!?! Aren’t we all in the same economical situation new or existing customers?

  • sianhelena_m
    Sian Milner (@sianhelena_m) reported from Hitchin, England

    @gashead @virginmedia Bizarre that it’s not actually Kelly causing an issue yet they’re being very helpful for me! Unfortunately not sorted! Honestly lost all faith in it being resolved. Never had such an issue trying to get an answer from a company. Hope you get sorted too!

  • LisaKathryn5
    Lisa Kathryn (@LisaKathryn5) reported from St Albans, England

    @virginmedia what is happening in AL3? Now saying 9am tomorrow before broadband repaired, this is almost a day of lost working time. Service is so bad, what is being done to make it more reliable?

  • Cleric20
    Matt Adcock (@Cleric20) reported from Hitchin, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been a customer for almost 27 yrs with you guys - was being offered an upgrade to broadband…

  • PaulswainDJ
    Paul Swain (@PaulswainDJ) reported from Kings Langley, England

    @virginmedia I’ve given up for tonight. I’m struggling to deal with a company that has lied on record and taken money wrongfully out of my account. @MartinSLewis help!

  • ushererofsouls
    ✨kate✨ (@ushererofsouls) reported from Harlington, England

    @virginmedia Going by the tv & broadband issues I’m experiencing - am I correct in assuming the gremlin is back? I can’t even get on your site!

  • Pensar_Mark
    Mark Williams (@Pensar_Mark) reported from Berkhamsted, England

    @virginmedia Already done that 4 times and got nowhere. I need someone who can help to actually call back as promised.

  • flissaggie
    Phyllis Charles (@flissaggie) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia been trying to speak to someone about my contract been fobbed off ' our system is down' or ' I will call back' still waiting!!!

  • sjdhatters
    I Make Stuff Up On Tw*tter (@sjdhatters) reported from Stoke Mandeville, England

    @virginmedia I refer back to my original tweet. Zero attempt to resolve my issue. Just can't do it. Your solution is not acceptable to me or new owner. Can you please provide details on how to escalate this to a complaint? What if I cancel DD and then set up new DD with new owner details?

  • ERS_SteveG
    SteveG@ERS (@ERS_SteveG) reported from Toddington, England

    @skytv very poor service when switching to your service. Currently left without broadband for 2 weeks due to a BT Engineer not being able to go up a ladder to fit a cable! Regret leaving @virginmedia

  • Moyraluton
    Moyra Campbell (@Moyraluton) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia l have been on the ph for hours all week trying to get though to cancel my contract. I even tried to use the Chat box and no assistant helped me. Your customer service it terrible. I would never use or recommend you to any of my friends. Answer the phone ,

  • lutonmagoo
    Big E (@lutonmagoo) reported from Caddington, England

    @virginmedia Call the line says there’s no issues in my area by Neil no at least three people in the same street as me that have no service at the moment so again absolutely incorrect information

  • flabcab

    @CheekyVic @virginmedia Can't think of a good one tbh. All customer service. For virtually everything. Is piss poor.

  • kellyokid
    Steve Kelly (@kellyokid) reported

    @MelJanie @virginmedia I was with Virgin for years but got treated like a piece of crap on their shoe with multiple issues so I’ve left! Customer service is non existent! They just don’t care!

  • PaulOBrienKil
    Paul O'Brien (@PaulOBrienKil) reported

    @virginmedia @MizzCQ I strongly urge anyone thinking of subscribing to @virginmedia to NOT do it. Took over a hour to get through to customer service & they still won't fix their mistake. Shambles of an organisation.

  • KarenFleming36
    Karen Fleming (@KarenFleming36) reported

    @virginmedia sent a DM, been waiting over 30 minutes to speak to someone on the phone. I can’t watch TV after Virgin was installed less than 48hours ago. Please help!

    @virginmedia Need help to unlock our email account. Please help

  • edujones14
    Ed Jones (@edujones14) reported

    @Johnty14 @virginmedia Better than when they came to my house. I’m not a customer but they still came while I was out and dug up plants in my front garden to access connecting services I didn’t ask for. Then refused any contact with me afterwards due to not being a customer!

    Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported

    @virginmedia If you check the DMs I’ve sent you 42 messages in the last 16 days. You have replied to lots of them. But you have never been able to tell me why the fix is taking so long, whether/when any engineering staff have actually turned up to look at our cabling, or when it will be fixed
