    @virginmedia Its sorted, I’m switching to another provider. I’ve never had such a poor customer service experience in my life

  • Pascalstil Pascal Stil (@Pascalstil) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia The housemate who's connection it is has been in contact many times, apparently on Monday he was told permission was needed from the account holder of the new connection, who jas not been contacted about that, and it also sounds too stupid to be true

  • christine160586 christine (@christine160586) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia @Francesca090900 There us no option for loss of TV service, only for broadband and calls.

  • johnpbell John Bell (@johnpbell) reported from Bangor, Northern Ireland

    .@virginmedia I’ve been waiting for 40 mins and counting. At no point am I told what place I am in the queue nor expected waiting times. Very poor. Can you please arrange a call back as I’m not prepared to wait those sort of times again with no idea of how long it’s likely to be.

  • deewoodvalemufc David Simpson (@deewoodvalemufc) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia your broadband is a heap of **** . Cakesmackers

  • seansteenson Sean Steenson (@seansteenson) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Ive had some scary experiences with customer service but as always @virginmedia always take the Oscar for worst customer service performance. #virginmedia

  • ianmoran Ian Moran (@ianmoran) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    So is YouTube buffering a thing now ? Running Speedtest on my Apple TV i get 330/40 with Virgin Media and yet pretty much all videos will initially have buffering issues

  • bobobalti Bobo Balti 🎩 (@bobobalti) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @br_Fk5 @virginmedia Having same issue with Sky at in laws.

  • EmmetMcDB Emmet McDonough-Brown (@EmmetMcDB) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @okaygeraldine @virginmedia That’s one for @consumerlinda G. I’d give them a call, I’m astounded they can charge you when you move to an area they don’t service. It feels very very wrong.

  • mfearonmusic Michael Fearon (@mfearonmusic) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I called again on Saturday to resolve this again and I was told this was a crazy amount of discount and that any TL or manager would find it difficult to approve. After hours on the phone and all Managment unable to help, I’ve now been advised to make a complaint.

  • mfearonmusic Michael Fearon (@mfearonmusic) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Then I noticed that I was missing the children’s channels. I called and got it sorted but I was told the new bill will show as £150 odd but not to worry a manager will be applying discount, that never happened.

  • Pascalstil Pascal Stil (@Pascalstil) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Nice nonsense answer. One of our connections here in the house has been down for two weeks because a second connection was added, this ome is all on you

  • jazzyrath3 Jazzyspurs (@jazzyrath3) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia your broadband service has been s**t the last 4 days in the BT8 area. Any chance of a fix as I am trying to work from home and having to use hotspot on my phone to ensure I can stay online. A trip to BT when my contract is up.

  • lilmissymoo90 Lauren Blair♥ (@lilmissymoo90) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia how does one get a newer router does one have to leave and come back in the future ? My wifi is awful just ordered wifi extenders but we get like 35mbs upstairs on a 350mbs package :)

  • MarkMcL60727750 Mark McLaughlin (@MarkMcL60727750) reported from Bangor, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia can you tell me how to send back your NOT so super intelligent WiFi booster. It's crap, does not work and ever since we used it we keep getting kicked off wifi, both me and my partner. Internet speeds are worse on some devices.

  • Broc_Boyd Broc (@Broc_Boyd) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Belfast BT6 no issues showing on service checker but no connection

  • LeenaG Leena Gupte (@LeenaG) reported

    It's all a bit of a fix isn't it? How can knowing your package details be a security question when @virginmedia routinely changes your package on you without your consent and then uses it as a excuse to start charging more? Surely security questions should be something I choose?

  • superstaryas7 yas ➐ (@superstaryas7) reported

    @virginmedia yet AGAIN, you're causing me to disconnect from matches in #FIFA22 due to the poor service I'm receiving!!! This is absolutely shocking & embarrassing! Having this many disconnects results in EA giving out sanctions btw! (Happened to me last year)

  • ianjac2 ianjac (@ianjac2) reported from Harthill, Scotland

    @virginmedia I would just like an engineer to come to my house next Saturday as early as possible and fix my hub3 thanks as I know it is not working properly as when I try to connect my phone on wifi the is no network name like wm8763213 for example

  • LeenaG Leena Gupte (@LeenaG) reported

    Properly bored now @virginmedia What happens if I just cancel my direct debit and mail back your stuff? Can we consider the account cancelled? I promise not to buy any of your services ever again?

  • Beanieee B E A N I E 🦊 (@Beanieee) reported

    .@virginmedia You are USELESS. Someone needs to call me right now to discuss removing the cancellation fee due to your horrendous service.

  • Wee_Sammy_xoxo Samantha (@Wee_Sammy_xoxo) reported

    @virginmedia What exactly is the point of this page if you don't help? There was no point in me telling you my issue what so ever. The line is active so service should not have been switched off. Especially if it isn't my fault they changed my installation date.

  • Alexand46027896 Alexandra Gill (@Alexand46027896) reported

    @Ofcom I am trying to help my mum recover an email account that @virginmedia have just deleted without notice even as she cancelled her virgin media account 4 yrs ago. I was advised to complain and get a deadlock letter but they won't oblige. Any advice?

  • steviehalliwell stephen halliwell (@steviehalliwell) reported

    @virginmedia Morning, yes I tried again this morning because it was down again. An engineer is coming again on Friday. I just hope he understands that it is most likely the cabling size from the junction box as we are the quite a distance away. It’s certainly not the hub.

  • bigstevie_67 Stephen (@bigstevie_67) reported

    @virginmedia It is a replacement! I've been onto them again and I'm getting a free v6 with free Activation now. This has been ongoing for months with pixellation so I'll be after recompense for loss of service. Who or how do I contact about that?

  • Chrisca50 Christine Carroll (@Chrisca50) reported

    @virginmedia Many thanks, I have tried this link and there seems to be no problems in my area so must just have been a glitch
