@TfL why is the 4G signal on the Central line underground only around the posh area's of Notting Hill Gate, Queensway and Holland Park? Since @virginmedia stopped their WiFi in April it's annoying that a major metropolis like London has no internet connections on a lot of lines

@ameehan71 @virginmedia All new and reconnected. 200mb then next day nothing, comes on for a day then drops to 10mb. Talk to customer service and they don't have a clue. They also want over £400 for me to leave. Worst service I've ever known

So @virginmedia won't let me leave our contract despite their service continually crashing or not providing the speed it promises. Ultrafast broadband but getting nothing or 9mb download. Fed up with it now. Avoid them at all costs. #VirginMediaoutage #broadband

I wonder if anyone has a #skyglass connected to a #virginmedia broadband? At least with #SkyQ your TV service will be unaffected

@Shayan86 @virginmedia It’s a disgrace - my husband works in tv too. You 100% cannot rely on VM. I am definitely changing. My bill started off at £35 and is now £45 as we had to buy boosters. Worst service ever. Skybroadband non-fibre was better than this.

@virginmedia help why have you made it so difficult to log a landline vault on line. Need to call, as line out of order since friday. I am certain it's systems fault as display message I have seen on previous occasions.

On phone to @virginmedia for 55 mins to cancel, speak to 4 different people about a mis-sold service and then when I ask them to produce my contract they hang up. Not happy.

@virginmedia Can’t log into the Sky Sports app with Virgin Media- sends you a link that does nothing repeatedly! TV service down not missed any F1 in 30 years. I finally get it to work (tv not all) & it’s so pixelated you can’t see anything! The ***** tricks you’ve pulled on me

@BedsGooner @virginmedia @O2 Feel your pain. Yesterday both my O2 and Virginmedia accounts were hacked. O2 were terrible and could have avoided lots of it from my first call, but almost ignored me then it got really bad, as people had access to my account.

(@BedsGooner) reported
@virginmedia @O2 why is it so hard to link my O2 acc to my Virginmedia acc? Get to the "we've sent the code" page but no code has arrived. About 90 mins now even resend not sending code. Just want to ccess my O2 acc. O2 customer services were useless...

@virginmedia had virgin media for 3 weeks and im getting a download speed of 2.1 mbps. Absolutely atrocious. Tried phoning and its virtually impossible to speak with someone. Hopefully when I stop paying they will call me and this shitshow can go. Awful experience.

@virginmedia Hi, the brown plastic virgin media box on the outside of my house has broken in the recent storms and the wires are exposed. The help chatbot doesn't understand and no answer on WhatsApp, how do I arrange for someone to come and fix it?
