    @virginmedia its nice you’re offering new customers ridiculously cheap deals but charging prices through the roof for an inferior service for a customer of nearly 20 years #CostOfLivingCrisis

  • HuntColin58
    Colin Hunt (@HuntColin58) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia It took me best part of a day Friday 24/3/2023 to contact you to cancel my broadband but since I finally managed to you have been contacting me 4 times a day. We have signed a contract with someone else. Please stop harassing us we have cancelled

  • chrispsaras
    Chris Psaras (@chrispsaras) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia no broadband since yesterday afternoon, told engineers were on route but still no update. Your offshore call centre is also unhelpful and not able to offer any further information. Please can you help?

    @virginmedia how do you check the mobile phone signal in your area? I’ve had nine for a few days

  • scbadham
    Scott badham (@scbadham) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia really disappointed in the service lately all it does is keep dropping. I’ve had no Internet services for the last hour again the fourth time this week and it’s still not working

  • RefinedSavage
    Dani Grim (@RefinedSavage) reported from Dudley, England

    Seems like @virginmedia is completely down in our area, I can't even access their support site to log a problem. Also it appears that @O2 is having some sort of issue, my mobile data connection is so slow that royal mail could be a viable messaging alternative.

  • stumccullagh
    Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I’m going to but I know I won’t get anywhere anyway the customer never gets anywhere

  • CaseyRain
    Casey Rain (aka S-Endz) (@CaseyRain) reported from Birmingham, England

    Causing me to drop out of a work meeting once every 10 minutes. Oh, and Virgin tried to blame it on my hardware? Except... My neighbour is seeing the EXACT same thing. This wasn't happening before the outage. @virginmedia why am I paying you lots of money for a spotty connection?

  • HJMKent
    Howard Martin 💚 (@HJMKent) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @virginmedia Can you please explain why, when I renewed my package in March you reduced my last invoiced bill to reflect the change & took by DD what you said you would! Now you say you will suspend my service because I underpaid? You took what you wanted!

  • a_Muss60
    Andy (@a_Muss60) reported from Swindon, England

    @matt_hanson70 @virginmedia Intermittent for 2.5 days, Sunday always v poor the worst is 0.4mbs with a 250mbs supply. VM's script always saying reboot etc.. Funny though following reporting an issue a week ago I suddenly recorded 256mbs for an hour then it slowly drops to normal! First ever hitting supply.

  • ReissOmari
    Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia It’s on both WiFi and wired. At this present moment I’m unable to get ANY network from the router on both.

  • nippa77
    Neil Simpson (@nippa77) reported from Swindon, England

    @virginmedia why is it that your service is up and down more than a yo-yo? It’s getting ridiculous now!!!

  • KittykatClaire
    Claire B🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛ (@KittykatClaire) reported from Willenhall, England

    @virginmedia I guess it's not your. Problem. After pushing me into a contract with them. I've been in touch with them and there nothing they can do they just want me. To turn my mobile on and off again

  • ReissOmari
    Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    Ended up just reconnecting my TP Link router, it seems the problems were with my Hub 5 because everything seems to be working fine now. Not great @virginmedia

  • Stephen12857059
    Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Nobody has called me and the WhatsApp chat is very frustrating and not dealing with the issue. This is very simple, I was sent contract paperwork with an agreed monthly fee of £86.75. Why have I paid two months of excessively higher payments. I should have left VM

  • beffycuk
    𝚋𝚎𝚝𝚑 (@beffycuk) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia Yes, and every-time it says no issue, when there clearly is! It interferes with everything, the hive, the tv everything! Really considering going elsewhere.

  • kolapoagunbiade
    TheBosz (@kolapoagunbiade) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately, you dont have a ticketing system or cobtact email to track issues, rather a phone system that requires you to wait forever to get through to an agent. A/c number: 095063606. I was charged x2.5 of what i was tp pay.

  • ________Danny
    Satish Danny Paul (@________Danny) reported from West Bromwich, England

  • iamscorchy
    iamscorchy (@iamscorchy) reported from Wednesfield, England

    @virginmedia Experiencing issues in your area there is a technician in the area but still doesn't explain why my routers fans go really loud and disconnected from everything I have to keep resetting to get it back to normal then on top get "issues in my area" like always

  • KittykatClaire
    Claire B🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛ (@KittykatClaire) reported from Willenhall, England

    I'm so pissed off @virginmedia blackmailed me into signing my mobile contract with @O2 by saying my media account would be cheaper. If I stayed with virgin it would be amount more. So I had no option but to go with o2 and No my mobile Internet is crap. I can't use my doorbell

    Kelvin (@KelvinEHughes) reported

    @WhatTheForkAVFC They sent me a bill once. I've never been a customer of Virgin Media. They couldn't explain why when I eventually got through and sent two reminders to pay, the second quite aggresive, AFTER I had been assured it was an error on their part. Absolute cowboys.

  • jhargie4
    john (@jhargie4) reported

    @O2 @virginmedia CEO Lutz Schueler been waiting 5 days for my DEALOCK Letter following your refusal to actually discuss my complaint before transferring to another service provider. New customers get better deals than 20 year loyal ones.

  • AshmoreWalton
    Chance Walton-Ashmore (he/him) (@AshmoreWalton) reported

    @virginmedia after asking to change my payment date 4 times and extra on the chat and app. Also being told it’s been changed. Now I’m told it cannot be done due to a system issue and maximum amount of changes have been taken. It hasn’t been changed. Terrible customer service.

  • MrsSophialouize
    Sophia Ravat (@MrsSophialouize) reported

    I do not have a stable connection to carry out my paid employment from home. I am having to use my phone data thanks to @lebara but having to pay an additional £10 per person as our data is quickly draining @virginmedia fix the issue i am paying for.

  • StevoLaughton
    Stephen Laughton 🇺🇦 (@StevoLaughton) reported

    On a web chat with @virginmedia about my internet package renewal (because you can't talk to real people any more, right?)...at that very moment my internet access goes down...the gods are trying to tell me something, aren't they?

    Hi @virginmedia there’s a problem with my subscription. I’m watching #NFFC v #LUFC and whenever Igor Jesus gets the ball my tv goes into slow motion. Is there any way to resolve this?

  • SonyRichards4

    Here we go again, unable to cancel an old SIM card from @O2 and @virginmedia

  • denimscott
    DENIM 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇺🇸 (@denimscott) reported

    @TheWho87 @virginmedia We done the same. Said something about "five days" on the packaging, but dismissed it. Within the week, box went down, so had to start using the new remote, thereby losing everything, including some much-looked at sport from the "deleted" file. That file is non-existent now.
