  • Dean_e1 Gary Deane (@Dean_e1) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia, I closed my account on 02/02/19 and was assured it was done but I received no confirmation. I have since made numerous attempts sort this out with you yet I am still receiving bills. I was a long standing customer so this is completely unacceptable, please advise

  • LukeDelahunty Luke Delahunty (@LukeDelahunty) reported from Aylesbury Vale, England

    @virginmedia There’s not enough slack on the cable to fix a connector. It’ll need a new cable laying. I’m still waiting for the form for permission that I was promised days ago. Maybe the carrier pigeon got lost.

  • michaelck1972 Michael (@michaelck1972) reported from Hertfordshire, England

    So I’ve been with @virginmedia for about 2 years & I’m out of contract. Happy with the service so as moving house thought I’d take them with me. Want to charge me for the privilege!! Already paying more per mth than new customers and you want to charge me a moving fee!! Jog on!

  • Trantum_UK David ☮ (@Trantum_UK) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia Apparently they are working to fix a performance by 13th... pathetic if true

  • teressc teress mclarty (@teressc) reported from Aylesbury Vale, England

    @richardbranson your Virgin call centre people have broken my husband! #virginmedia

  • jimmysmith_76 James 'Jimmy' Smith (@jimmysmith_76) reported from Dunstable, England

    @virginmedia They are the only ones who can fix it and are good when they arrive at my property

  • sparkysandy maria rich (@sparkysandy) reported from Flitwick, England

    Virgin media what rude staff you have working for you. Putting the phone down on me

  • LukeDelahunty Luke Delahunty (@LukeDelahunty) reported from Aylesbury Vale, England

    @virginmedia Thanks. I filed a complaint 6 days ago and unsurprisingly am yet to hear anything. I feel like I’m being quite negative about VM so I’d like to give you some praise. 2 things you’re good at: 1. Replying to Tweets. 2. Apologising. Unfortunately both not very helpful.

  • Trantum_UK David ☮ (@Trantum_UK) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia Area. Joke. Your website service page says no issues with broadband

  • tilly1969 susan brunton (@tilly1969) reported from Hertfordshire, England

    @virginmedia no WiFi signal upstairs help !

  • QidiFong Qidi (@QidiFong) reported from London Colney, England

    Here is it, NHS provides a better service that Virgin Media does.

  • RobinA_79 Robin Anderson (@RobinA_79) reported from Flitwick, England

    @virginmedia Can you tell me what the problem is though like something has broken or what or cable damaged etc.

  • nigelwalsh Nigel Walsh 🛫🛬🏃 (@nigelwalsh) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia Yes thanks. Finally spoke to someone. I appreciate it’s probably not intentional. You have a great product that unfortunately is not backed up the same level of service

  • michaelck1972 Michael (@michaelck1972) reported from Hertfordshire, England

    @virginmedia It’s ok. I’ll cancel and move to BT instead.

  • gdolan19571992 Gerry Dolan (@gdolan19571992) reported from St Albans, England

    @virginmedia our virgin media is down and cannot check status as your page not working, please advise. Thanks

  • fergal_rarkey fergal (@fergal_rarkey) reported from Hitchin, England

    @virginmedia hi, our internet is dropping out completely and Iam having to reset router at least once per day. When it’s on, it’s fine. This is a reoccurrence of an on going issue. Please help

  • DaViDzZzZz David (@DaViDzZzZz) reported from Toddington, England

    @virginmedia why does sky sports channel always have a line in the middle of the screen when I watch the football! Soo bad considering the price we pay!

  • jimmysmith_76 James 'Jimmy' Smith (@jimmysmith_76) reported from Dunstable, England

    @virginmedia I want an engineer to attend ASAP. I’ve had a text saying the fault is resolved but it’s not. I’ve told you that we had a booster fitted in September which was working fine until you did the upgrade in my street last week and now it’s still not working. The booster needs updating

  • matt_w1971 Matthew Wilson (@matt_w1971) reported from Dunstable, England

    @virginmedia Rubbish customer service,rubbish internet,expensive as well

  • RobinA_79 Robin Anderson (@RobinA_79) reported from Flitwick, England

    @virginmedia Are there currently problems in the N3 area of London? We have no internet connection.

  • JFoote97289503 J Foote (@JFoote97289503) reported

    @virginmedia. Why are your advisers so incompetent? Two and hours on chat and no further forward. Dreadful service.

  • wasaginga mark honey (@wasaginga) reported

    Finally had enough of paying virgin media for their TV package..so I'm going with the dodgy firestick..but the one problem I have is how do I record a program,anyone got any recommendations??

  • jonbentley90 Jon Bentley (@jonbentley90) reported

    Has @virginmedia mobile actually changed from @VodafoneUK to @O2 as its VMNO network following the merger? In an area where I’m used to getting excellent data coverage it’s suddenly become frustratingly dire. Could this possibly be the reason?

  • DannyHayton9 Danny Hayton (@DannyHayton9) reported

    @virginmedia Honestly having non stop problems with this I'm not happy at all. I'm close to cancelling because this is actually terrible. My connection keeps cutting out. I never had this problem with bt. How long do I get before I can cancel because I only signed up to virgin last week

  • bludav_andrew 👽 🇺🇦 ☮️ (@bludav_andrew) reported from Manchester, England

    I can’t believe @virginmedia can’t send out an engineer to fix my internet until Wednesday! (My birthday) I will miss out on the season finale event of Fortnite and tank my mobile data until then, plus have to go in the office to work! 🙃😢

  • DarkKni85052615 Dark Knight (@DarkKni85052615) reported

    @virginmedia YOUR BROADBAND IS SO ******* **** , ITS APPALING. **** CUSTOMER service. Always telling you to do useless things.

  • leo181711 Lou Blakeway 🏃‍♀️⚓📚🏳️‍🌈 (@leo181711) reported

    Another Friday evening and another night of @virginmedia crashing on us #FFS we have 6 months of this **** left and then we can return to @skytv 😡😡

  • redron1975 Ronnie Harris (@redron1975) reported

    @arrchargaming @virginmedia Been with them for 20+ years but they don't give a crap. Absolutely disgraceful.

  • angie_norris Andrea Louise (@angie_norris) reported

    The extortionate price I pay for @virginmedia broadband & (at least) 3 times a week it stops working & I am left without broadband for up to an hour. It's disgraceful. I've put up with it for 3 years & I've had enough! Who provides internet for a decent service for a good price?
