    @virginmedia I was offered a price to increase my broadband price by the sales team last week, have just called and been told it’s now double. Now been put through to customer service who can do the deal, on hold forever and it’s was sales who initially offered the price. What’s going on?

  • AliTaylorGolf Alastair Taylor (@AliTaylorGolf) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia After waiting over an hour to speak to customer service for over an hour they did nothing so I would imagine you will be about as much help. Thanks

  • lewishorsey92 Lewis Horsfield (@lewishorsey92) reported from Warton, England

    @virginmedia your internet service is a ******* shambles. How do I contact someone to make an official complaint about the service I receive. Which is non existent for most of the week?

  • lewishorsey92 Lewis Horsfield (@lewishorsey92) reported from Warton, England

    @virginmedia Okay let me start from the beginning and just read everything I say and then give me a solution. I tried watching on my Mac last night. It kept telling me to register my device so I did. And now it’s saying there’s max devices registered and won’t let me watch anything

    @virginmedia I do not have access to my ser care account. I don’t know why there is a problem because it isn’t just me. It’s trending with tweets conplaning about the service being unusable. Virgin Media, just say that your services are down right now. So we atleast know.
