    @virginmedia Its done now but fairly sure it shouldn't take your agents 45 mins to cancel sky and bt sports and change the TV package to the basic. Maybe more training or better systems are needed. Just saying Sky took about 3 minutes to cancel BT sports for me a year or so ago #competitors

    @virginmedia broadband in BS166EB is totally rubbish again, got to switch this service is really really poor #inconsistent at best.

    Virgin media make me 🤬 Been with them for 6yrs (no other option in our flats), paid their extortionate prices & received pretty poor intermittent service. Moving house & they don’t supply our new area 🥳 but they would like to charge a cancellation fee of £30.38

    @virginhelp @virginmedia I need some way to resolve this, and can’t be the only one stuck in this situation. I can provide birth certificates, passports, etc, etc. Your support staff want 3 letters of a password nobody knows.

    @virginmedia The service checker just says its down but doesn't tell me what's going on.

    @virginmedia Tried to send you a WhatsApp message but got the following message back: "Thanks for choosing to Message us today. We don’t have availability to accept any more messages for faults at the current time." Why is getting help so difficult?

  • ruthcottz
    Ruth Cottingham💙 (@ruthcottz) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia no Internet in BS16 1DY. I called 150. Your recorded message says service out until 3pm, as you're "working to improve services" in this area. Why didn't you tell us before?!

    @Birdybabe07 @virginmedia Bt, great deals atm. Once back on openreach network you can move around with over 50 companies. Once on virgin you can only use virgin. bt will happily re instal to get you back on openreach network. Unless you need business fibre...then I can provide or advise👍.

  • thisisryanc
    Ryan Carrington (@thisisryanc) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Constantly drops out, coupled with frequently slow speeds. Price increases for a worsening service.

  • garethbalmer
    Gareth Balmer (@garethbalmer) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia All good now - there were some power issues in another part of Gloucester that seemed to be causing the V6 box at our house and a few friends to restart. Very odd

  • Hekler21
    Simon H (@Hekler21) reported from Westerleigh, England

    @virginmedia hardly a great start as new customer!! Moving house and ordered a new box for moving day, but now won’t be delivered there for over 2 weeks!! #shambles

  • AcuharmonyUK
    Acuharmony-UK (@AcuharmonyUK) reported from Clevedon, England

    @virginmedia No reported issues. Tried the fixes before, and so did virgin chat. Not just my handset, other people are having the same problem. Am I going to have to change networks, is that what you're saying? Due to the change to O2?

  • chrisorman
    Chris Orman (@chrisorman) reported from Bradley Stoke, England

    Just spoken to @virginmedia customer services about red light on my hub. They GUARANTEED that the light will revert to white in the next 24 hours. Wonder what happen if their guarantee fails?

  • DigitalJonathan
    Jonathan (@DigitalJonathan) reported from Bristol, England

    Genius timing @virginmedia - webinar to deliver in 2 hours and now you go cold again. I’m not even surprised. Terrible company, utterly unreliable.

  • lazy__goth
    Tiffany (@lazy__goth) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia No, it doesn’t, and the internet goes down again within hours, usually in the evening when I presume there’s high usage. We’re in a loop - report issue, told issue is resolved, issue happens again.

    @virginmedia So what’s the point of the online renewal journey? Is the system designed to help customers, or just to annoy them?

  • helentink
    me (@helentink) reported

    @virginmedia your customer service..wow..wat can i say. Double our bill then say nothing you can do to help with offers and will juat charge us a 500 pound cancellation fee...you obviously dont care about long term customers...

  • JonHar1985
    Jon H (@JonHar1985) reported

    @virginmedia why the hell has my Internet been intermittent for over a week and after today was supposed to be the “fix” date, it’s now updated to say next week? Literally can’t work due it dropping out. Imagine there’s no compensation for you turning to **** though, hey?

  • LisaRacheal
    Lisa (@LisaRacheal) reported

    @virginmedia my neighbour has Gigabit fibre with you, their house is 20 feet from mine yet you claim I cannot be connected to the network. Please contact me on how I can fix this ludicrous error.

  • PariPassu_Rx
    Pari Passu Newsletter (@PariPassu_Rx) reported

    Telefónica and Liberty Global are looking at ways to bring down the £22bn debt pile at Virgin Media O2, their UK joint venture, after a sharp sell-off in the company's bonds. A roughly $925mn unsecured note fell to as low as 57 cents on the dollar this week, down from about 78 at the start of July, and even the senior secured paper slipped. The measures under discussion include cutting the expected £200mn dividend, pulling back capex, and reducing headcount.
