    Dave Maran (@DaveMaran) reported from Brinsley, England

    @virginmedia intermittent internet connection and speed for the past 3 days. Support just tell you to restart or reset hub then hang up! This is getting ridiculous. 70mb at moment when it works, even thought I should get 350+.

    Hmm ask for a @virginmedia customer support line mannager and then get cut off. Twice. 🤔

    @virginmedia guys I'm trying to stay calm but your poor service and none communication is worrying me now. No loyalty to a long loyal customer.

    Karl shaw (@KMShaw75) reported from Derbyshire, England

    @virginmedia I only have 4g on my phone which I'm having to use. Not good for work from home. Two days down now. 10 years I've been a customer. I'll be looking at other options tomorrow

    @virginmedia your customer service has no idea how to handle a call, calling 2 times, 2 different answers, shame

    falafel&taters (@falafeltaters) reported from Derbyshire, England

    @virginmedia About loosing connection all the time, and about the bill, 2 different answers, used to be a good customer service, after 10 years with, I'm really thinking of leaving you.

  • Baltimorebound1
    Andy Greatbatch (@Baltimorebound1) reported from Derbyshire, England

    @virginmedia 45 mins so far being passed around different teams to get some resolution to a complaint raised 2 weeks ago, with no response!! Currently on hold again because you can never get through to speak to someone without a 15-20 min wait!! And a 30 quid increase in my bill!

  • KMShaw75
    Karl shaw (@KMShaw75) reported from Derbyshire, England

    @virginmedia I need someone to speak to me asap. I've tried and tried to call to resolve the issue but nothing is happening and even when I called to leave after being on hold the lady put the phone down after 10 seconds. Seriously not happy

  • JasonWDL
    Jason (@JasonWDL) reported from Derbyshire, England

    @virginmedia Says there isn't an issue. Ran the diagnostic test from the website. Tells me it's not plugged in. It's definitely plugged in. Full reboot of everything hasn't helped. Unfortunately customer service won't speak to me as I'm not at home. My partner is.

    @_BrettJames @virginmedia I’m leaving Sky so I’ll get in touch with BT. Had the worst experiences with Virgin, especially on the phone. Over an hour every call to sort stuff #poorcustomerservice

    Mark Simms (@marksimms3) reported from Selston, England

    @bandq_help big shout out to Robert Reilly in your customer services Centre .. helpful, friendly, efficient. has done exactly what he said he would to resolve my issue and then called me to confirm! Credit to you @BandQ @bandq_help @virginmedia should hire Robert .. he’s good ..

  • acmtix
    𝘼𝙙𝙖𝙢🐰 (@acmtix) reported from Eastwood, England

    @virginmedia I don't want content, I don't have your TV or your phone just broadband. So to increase this cost like this means that next time it comes to review my connectivity I will simply leave your service and move to a more competitive service that doesn't sneakily raise prices mid term.

  • leebert666
    Lee Warren (@leebert666) reported from Derbyshire, England

    @virginmedia broadband down again, can't get through on phone. This is the second time in a few days, just getting ridiculous now. Paying for a service that doesn't work😡😡

  • ShellHarris1992
    Shell (@ShellHarris1992) reported from Derbyshire, England

    Pay £50 a month for slow WiFi in my own home and a router that flashes the WiFi symbol all the time! Thanks @virginmedia - money well spent there. (The flashing drives me mad)

  • falafeltaters
    falafel&taters (@falafeltaters) reported from Derbyshire, England

    @charrcelia @virginmedia Exactly the same problem here, bad service but more increase in billing

  • KMShaw75
    Karl shaw (@KMShaw75) reported from Derbyshire, England

    @virginmedia That was the first thing I did. It was working this morning but has just stopped. It’s done it before as well. I’ve triple checked again and the same problem

  • KMShaw75
    Karl shaw (@KMShaw75) reported from Derbyshire, England

    @erskinetom29 @virginmedia It’s gone quiet 🤫 no help from VM

  • rlswilliams

    Richard Weedon (@richweedon77) reported from Derbyshire, England

    @virginmedia what is going on with your service in DE3. Rubbish service all last week and when we phoned told not enough people in the area had complained. Now no internet this evening. This is getting beyond a joke

  • leebert666
    Lee Warren (@leebert666) reported from Derbyshire, England

    @virginmedia can't believe broadband has been down since before 4pm. This isn't good enough😡😡

    @virginmedia would your team call to upgrade equipment because I've been a customer for over 1 year?

  • charlcttelilley

  • originalkellogs
    Kellogs (@originalkellogs) reported

    @virginmedia Yes. Tried them all with no success I’m afraid. No idea what else to try which is why I am hoping you can help 🤞

  • ohnoitisXavier
    Xavier (@ohnoitisXavier) reported

    @virginmedia is a complete joke. I can't afford to pay my bill this month but I can pay it next month but instead of giving me a break they just threaten to block my access to internet and tv -.- **** show

  • ohnoitisXavier
    Xavier (@ohnoitisXavier) reported

    @virginmedia I normally always pay on time so I have never needed an extension before. I was told by a member of your team on the 10th that I didn’t owe any money on the 10th of January but then I get a call from the collections team saying I do

  • stuartshawcross
    stuart shawcross (@stuartshawcross) reported

    @virginmedia I waited online for 30 mins this morning and got nowhere. I must say you make it so incredibly difficult to cancel, it actually puts me off staying with Virgin.

  • realjakub86
    Jakub Koudela 🇨🇿 (@realjakub86) reported

    @virginmedia hi, no outages reported in my area. What would this screen suggest? Laptop connected via LAN on virgin router? Is new router required or are there any issues nearby? Thank you

  • theshortblue
    kevin duffield (@theshortblue) reported

    @virginmedia Still waiting CW, is this the equivalent of being cut off by the installations team this morning on the telephone? Why not direct message me and help with the problem?

  • Kamikazerub
    TheJrue (@Kamikazerub) reported

    @virginmedia Thought you were going to add something after my reply, but you probably had the 'our team is trying to fix the issue it as fast as possible' in your pocket and since I used it already you chose just no to answer. Fair...

  • RogueFYHL

    @virginmedia Yes they are. I've uninstalled and reinstalled. Android O/s is up to date. If you type in priorty app in to twitter, loads of people are having problems.
