    It’s a shame @Virgin only look after new customers & punish old customers. One less customer because of New Cystomer deals not available to look after current ones #ShameOnYou #Virgin #Virginmedia

  • Patrick60425645 Patrick Barrett (@Patrick60425645) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Yes, fix the navigation, have serious look at you chat app, as in the Name chat, is not what your application does, you using AI/ word recognition and you still list the reply as Agent. Having spent 10 min on your site. No thanks Virgin.

    What a night for my @virginmedia Broadband AND TV to go down... Missing #LIVARS and #TheApprentice #FirstWorldProblems

  • niallthorpe08 Niall Thorpe (@niallthorpe08) reported from London, England

    So we’ve waited 4 weeks for @virginmedia to install our TV and WiFi, telling us it’s been in the flat before, they get here finally and say it’s never been in the flat and we can’t have it! So they’ve left and we’re back to square one....

  • jta1497 Right Here Right Now.... (@jta1497) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @virginmedia @richardbranson @bt_uk virgin your broadband service in waltham Abbey is disgraceful, even though we have complained you fail to resolve my problems, and are no delivering on your own contract terms. I want this resolved or released frommy contract @poppy_tompkinsx

  • paulparker81 Paul Parker (@paulparker81) reported from Basildon, England

  • AndrewJamesRay3 Andrew James Raymond Hill (@AndrewJamesRay3) reported

    @virginmedia That it completely unacceptable. We have no internet yet have to wait until Thursday? How can that be considered a reasonable service offer? We pay for internet and currently have none. All we are asking is for you to provide what we currently pay for.

  • MYST3RYME Top 5s (@MYST3RYME) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, it happens in a lot of places, plus it's so inconsistent, it's really annoying. Is @VodafoneUK network really that bad? I guess Vodafone is out of the question if I move. But this happens indoors and outdoors, sometimes it's great, most times it's not, more than one location

  • lady_manor Bang Bang, I’m a taxi driver. (@lady_manor) reported

    @virginmedia ***************. Charging me 40.00 for broadband and won’t let me cancel because I didn’t see the email with the price increase. Absolute crock of ****.

  • JasonDolan Jason Dolan (@JasonDolan) reported

    I thought Virgin Media and Sky were cracking down on illegal streaming. They support their teams but don't pay to watch them?. I see most have @virginmedia Internet lines. Some @btsport what are you doing to STOP this?. I'm sick paying for freeloaders who've got plenty money!

  • MichelleP_52 Michelle Pearce (@MichelleP_52) reported

    @virginmedia attempting to cancel in the 14 day cooling off period, been passed around 3 operators and now the line has gone silent.....please can someone contact me.......really glad to be leaving if this is the level of service I can expect

  • matthew52565981 matthew davies (@matthew52565981) reported

    @virginmedia absolutely shocking service which has now gone 3 months, u need to be embarrassed by yourselves. Feel free to ring me to discuss. Appalled is an under statement

  • lady_manor Bang Bang, I’m a taxi driver. (@lady_manor) reported

    @virginmedia Why can’t I cancel my contract? I didn’t know about the price increase because I didn’t look at the email. They won’t do anything. I can drop to 100mb and the price difference is staggering. A whole British pound cheaper per month. I’ll pass thanks.

  • subbuteo_scot SubbuteoScotland (@subbuteo_scot) reported

    @virginmedia 6 minutes to connect me to someone to try change my deal. Over 2hrs to connect me to someone to cancel my contract. Ridiculous. Can you tell me who you are regulated by please so I can complain

  • LK_Pennington Louise Pennington (@LK_Pennington) reported

    @virginmedia Hi. I can't check for faults in the area because your website is broken.

  • Jasondonnelly18 The Theatre And Gaming Mechanic (@Jasondonnelly18) reported

    @virginmedia I have booked an engineer, which better not cost me anything or I will be filing a complaint been with you guys for over ten years, you can't even fix your own broadband systems what a complete joke
