    @virginmedia no internet available in Bolton - must be an outage as, although coverage is very poor, it isn’t usually this poor!!

    @virginmedia is there a way for me to find out if my phone number has been leaked or involved in any form of data breach as I've been getting daily phone calls from people pretending to be you? Never anyone else so just intrigued.

    Tell me why with my @virginmedia wifi and my @O2 phone contract, MY WIFI CUTS OUT CONSTANTLY AND I HAVE NO SIGNAL ANYWHERE I GO?! Thought being a customer of you both was supposed to reap massive benefits for me?

  • timmycooke
    Tim Cooke 🇺🇦 (@timmycooke) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Both wired and wireless. We've had 8 engineers out, a rewire, new hub and still endless drop outs. Was told finally it was an upload issue from the amp that supplied the box on the street. But still we're having issues. The 150 number is joke, make it simple!!!

    @terrificsue everyone out there be careful when receiving telephone calls and if they say they are from Virgin Media please check and check. I have been scammed today out of a lot of money . I am the one who thought would never be scammed but I was. Oohh .

    Shady Shaw (@shadeyshaw) reported

    @Benleo I think these big comp that operate in the uk should be banned from using overseas call centres,I left virgin because their customer service was atrocious joined youfibre only to find out they have been bought out by virgin media and now I’m sure they use the same call centres.

    v (@uraniumfroge) reported

    @virginmedia Every day it’s just “wait until tomorrow” with no real update, no installation date and no communication yet we’re being threatened with huge cancellation fees despite having no service at all. Can someone please actually take ownership of this situation?😡😡😡

  • RozoSmyth
    Rosemary Smyth (@RozoSmyth) reported

    @Benleo I had the same experience over several years. The worst service and customer service I have ever experienced. I wouldn't take Virgin media if you gave me it for free!!

  • snipsy1
    John Parsons (@snipsy1) reported

    @RobRollin2 @virginmedia Yes 2026 and only guarantee speeds for a wired connection. Signal strength has got lower with new routers generating extra revenue whilst customers suffer and pay
