    Just another day of poor @virginmedia service. Going crazy. All that money and useless service. Can’t get through on phone. Insane.

    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.

    @virginmedia Can you confirm connectivity issues in Belfast please? I did have to disconnect for new carpet fitting, i put it all together again and it worked. I returned home at 830 to find it down again. #Belfast #VirginMedia #Internet

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

    @virginmedia I am not happy with my Internet speeds. I have been a virgin customer for 3 years and have been told that I apparently have too many devices connected which I have never heard of with any previous provider. I have 100mbps and have had nothing but slow lagging stream

    Ross kane. (@rossthomaskane) reported from Bangor, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia the wifi connection in our home has been terrible the last few months. Anytime my mum calls she gets frustrated because she doesn’t understand the questions, but she is the only person staff will talk to as she is the account holder. Any suggestions??

  • 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

    Sam “Ace” Rothstein 🇪🇺 (@Conor1971) reported from Dunmurry, Northern Ireland

    @martinmcnally53 @virginmedia It’s supposed to be some super fast internet but it’s broken more than it works and can’t change because of the contract

  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia paid my bill the app says I’ve still something to pay and shows 0.00 this is messed up please help

  • beezlebum
    Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia No. You have proved beyond a shadow of a doubt your customer service is beyond useless.

  • adammccalden
    Adam McCalden (@adammccalden) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia since my virgin mobile UK signal has been shifted from piggyback Vodafone to @O2 it has been a complete disaster, constant signal dropping, constant WiFi calling cutting. This is before my account has been transferred to O2. Complete and utter rubbish

  • IamCarrieagain
    Carrie (@IamCarrieagain) reported

    @virginmedia Which part of I am disabled and cannot do this on demand do you not understand? Did you even think of the consequences on your disabled customers? You weren't upfront re my current, working router being switched off after just 5 days. Disgusting service. Now I'm without any

  • Notonyournell10
    Dave. (@Notonyournell10) reported

    @virginmedia I am following you and there’s no message icon. I just called again and was told the appointment was booked incorrectly and nobody can attend until Tuesday. It’s an absolute joke and I’ve raised an official complaint.

    @virginmedia Is there an issue in the BH21 area? Been having issues all week, and impossible to actually speak to a human.

  • vickiferris
    Vicky Leigh (@vickiferris) reported

    Go back to customer services and also for a call - i spent an hour on tuesday on the phone so would appreciate them calling me as they are the inconsistent party who change their story every time I speak to them. (7) @virginmedia

    @B25Owl @jomickane @Benleo I've never had this and been with Virgin Media on and off for years. I have had a faulty router from them before though.
