@virginmedia Oh for many a useless hour. We then spotted engineers outside. He said he wasn’t here to install internet, but to find Toby box. I said it’s there, someone dug it up 3 weeks ago. He said someone couldn’t find it during the week. Short story, it’s found please help

@virginmedia I’ve been on the phone 3 hours already to try and cancel my broadband/tv services and had my mobile phone cut off. Horrendous the time it takes to cancel

@virginmedia Just the one channel. The picture is jerking and freezing and has been for a good week now. As I said every other channel appears to be perfectly fine, it's just a problem with @wchannel

Cannot believe how @virginmedia treat their elderly customers. 75 year old women completly let down Have taken her money and delivered no services for two months. Disgusting to leave her isolated with No Sevices and no communication.

.@virginmedia please can you stop calling me every day? Long term customer offered £45 per month renewal, got double the speed for half the price with @TalkTalk 👏🏼 Since then, repeated calls offering £20 per month package, should have rewarded loyalty to begin with! @Ofcom

Well done to @virginmedia’s off shore support team for taking a loyal customer of 24 years, treating them so insensitively that they’ve now cancelled their contract and will go elsewhere for phone, broadband and TV.

@raycasey2003 Delicious! Having just spent six months of my life battling @virginmedia for the bare minimum compensation I was entitled to and witnessing their atrocious 'customer service', this has delighted me. I know he doesn't own Vigin Media anymore, but he created the monster.

@virginmedia The link only states there are problems in the area, not why or how long we should be expected to be without the service.

@virginmedia Sky Sports app “device limit reached” even though it has not been. Can not register/de-register devices on virgin app and it advises “contact your service provider” - which is yourselves.

@virginmedia you have the worst laid out website. All I'm trying to do is speak to someone on chat to figure out why I have zero upload speed right now and honestly thinking of just cancelling my broadband contract because your site is so unfriendly for customers to navigate.

@virginmedia @TaylorMod Yes we've checked, the world and its granny knows VM is down in Belfast but this has been since Monday now. Absolutely ridiculous. Cost me a fortune on data when I moved and VM kept getting the addres wrong, was well over a month without the service and this was 2 months ago.

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?

@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

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! 🙃😢

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?
