    You @virginmedia have the ABSOLUTE WORST telephone system I have ever wncountered. I’m trying to sort out an alleged unpaid bill (it bloody well isn’t an unpaid bill btw it’s incompetence on your behalf meaning I got billed well AFTER cancelling back in March 2020)

  • RedhillsAnnie Pauline Lomax (@RedhillsAnnie) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Any good reason why the outstanding @CNN news is being withdrawn from the cable service. Very, very disappointing. I am sure that I am not alone. #News #Media

    @virginmedia I’m trying to end my contract with yourselves. Which is proving an impossible task When I PRESS 1 on the phone to get through to someone, the phone line goes dead? Appreciate any help.

  • djleekee Lee Smith/DJ Leekee (@djleekee) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I think it was more a BBC source issue rather than VM wide. The lip sync is just every so slightly out but seemed very put on strictly last night

  • StadiaMap stadiamap 🏟️ (@StadiaMap) reported from Taff's Well, Wales

    @BO3673 @virginmedia Ours is down too, live In Taffs Well area Ref 25

  • orangethunder_ Nathan Rhys George (@orangethunder_) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    I feel awful for the @virginmedia social media staff. Bosses - invest more in infrastructure to genuinely improve services and stop these poor people being treated like ****. Also, pay your taxes.

  • DomSilva2 Dom Silva (@DomSilva2) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Hi our internet is going to be down for 2 days. I have a business acc with you with phone line will I be compensated for inconvenience? 😡

  • SewScandalous Katieeeeeeeeeeeee 👻 (@SewScandalous) reported from Newport, Wales

    Oh, maybe not. Even though the website says no problem, there is a problem with the broadband round here 🙄 @virginmedia

  • MarkAnstee2 Mark (@MarkAnstee2) reported from Weston-super-Mare, England

    @paulatkinsonuk @virginmedia Virgin hubs are known for poor wifi signal the hub 4 aint much better i ended up getting an old home hub router and turning that into a wifi access point . Though if you do get a hub 4 beware of overheating along with virgin wifi boosters.

    @virginmedia My tv still not working you have booked an engineer for Tuesday 7dec.8am_12 pm.

  • storywhispers Whispering Stories 💙 (@storywhispers) reported

    @virginmedia Read the tweet properly. Issues started today. No internet and TV again.

  • sharonhughes2 sharon hughes (@sharonhughes2) reported

    @virginmedia virgin box is working normally now but the new 360 control won't pair or control the Box. The remote is working as it still controls tv on and off and volume. Virgin insists must be broken remote which seems an almighty coincidence. The remote worked yesterday.

  • SammyPilgrim Sammy Pilgrim (@SammyPilgrim) reported

    @virginmedia can you please tell me how long we have to cancel from when we get virgin installed. As we had it installed a week ago and just get error CS1012 Cant retrieve account details for 1 week now and we need to get rid of it and get sky as you can't fix it

  • saffacat Saffacat (@saffacat) reported

    @Ofcom so @virginmedia tv is down until at least tomorrow. Apparently no compensation as not total service outage. Please confirm how I can make a complaint that actually matters as they don’t care and how I get compensation. Rates keep rising yet no improvement in service.

  • saffacat Saffacat (@saffacat) reported

    @virginmedia The tv service in TW1 is still broke even the website confirms this and states it will be corrected tomorrow. Maybe check before making statements that’s it’s running. I will be making a formal complaint but @Ofcom this is the service @virginmedia customers are receiving.

  • maxlowef1 Max Lowe (@maxlowef1) reported

    @virginmedia I see it's gone down again, with the tivo box seemingly stuck in a continuous loop of downloading updates and rebooting itself... let me know if you plan on ever providing a proper service and I'll decide whether to switch to sky or not.

  • MrRJL Robert Ling (@MrRJL) reported

    @virginmedia how do I get compensation for my lost work hours because the jnternet has gone down and your online portal is telling me it will be 24hrs? Thank you

  • DeanAlletson dean alletson (@DeanAlletson) reported

    @virginmedia I can honestly say I've never had issues since lockdown and having to get through to customer service about a price increase, that aside I have been with Diamond Cable, NTL World and now Virgin Media for 22 Years. if there's an issue I log on to my app and see status

  • storywhispers Whispering Stories 💙 (@storywhispers) reported

    @virginmedia Says - we’ve found the problem our engineers are working on it and we expect it to be fixed by 11.15pm
