  ✖️𝔻𝕖𝕒𝕟 𝕄𝕔𝔽𝕒𝕣𝕝𝕒𝕟𝕖✖️ (@NoddyMaccy) reported 5 minutes ago from Romford, England

  @virginmedia My phone is now over two weeks late, which isn’t an issue, I understand waiting for one to become available to send but to suggest I send this phone back and go without a phone until one eventually gets sent to me is just ridiculous. I’m not gonna pay my bills with no phone…

  SHAME ON YOU @virginmedia refusing to send an engineer to repair my 87 year old mum with a heart condition who needs a 24/7 line for her emergency button. Making her wait ANOTHER 6 days

  @virginmedia They haven’t got through to anyone to cancel it yet?

  Mark 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@WhiskyOneIce) reported 17 minutes ago from Sutton at Hone, England

  @virginmedia Obviously i don't have proof because your site doesn't say send recorded so why would i, my number was ported in July and I wrote same time, I have no reason to not send letter and you can see from any data usage that I stopped using your service

  @_andy_pandy_ @virginmedia Outrageous 😱 I’d cancel my subscription.

  Nancy S (@mizznansea) reported 25 minutes ago from Aveley, England

  @virginmedia I've been having problems with my phoneline and it is currently dead, can't make or receive calls. An engineer came on Friday but its still not working. Charges have been appearing on my phone bill for calls I have not made. This has happened twice since November.

  @virginmedia A number of times. But let’s be honest, they’re nothing but messengers. There is no escalation, and they can’t even call the construction company to escalate issues. As someone who has worked within many projects teams, and mapped business processes, yours is simply shocking

  Katie Purkiss (@KatiePurkiss) reported 28 minutes ago from Southend-on-Sea, England

  After 20 years of being with @virginmedia and Telewest before that, I’ve finally decided to jump ship. Broadband has been horrendous for a couple of weeks and constant issues. 😔. #TimeforaChange

  Nick Miller 🇺🇦 (@NickMillerUK) reported 28 minutes ago from South Ockendon, England

  @virginmedia It’s everything downstream of the LAN ports, so wifi on the box is on and working but all his wired network is offline. I have asked him to check all the cabling to make sure it’s all connected.

  @BorisJohnson @virginmedia @O2 Imagine being part of a club or a group where roaming could be free for every mobile phone network automatically across Europe We should join that club sometime.

  Hi @virginmedia I ordered a new phone via my wife (who is already on Virgin mobile) last Friday. I was told to wait for a confirmation email which I still have not received. Can you help? I have the order No.

  @virginmedia any chance you can get your website to work? Change Package Chat does nothing! Links sent via mail do not work! Hyperlink sent by text doesn’t work! Call centre (working from home in India?) worse than useless! Ever heard of Customer Centric design? #Useless

  @virginmedia No issues... I need to speak to someone I've tried everything... Reboot, reset and nothing is working

  DragonFish 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇮🇹 (@discobabe76) reported 50 minutes ago from Sutton at Hone, England

  @virginmedia No as I look after an elderly lady with parkinsons on Thursdays which means she doesn't get to get out of the house if I don't see her. So it's booked in for Friday. What help doninhave till then? Or reimbursement? I'm free every day after 3pm & I'm free Tuesday all day

  @virginmedia awful disgusting customer service. 3 different agents 3 conflicting replies and told other were lies! What has happened to virgin? Supervisor was so rude. Didn't listen and kept interrupting me with robot replies. #terriblecustomerservice #badcustomerservice

  Phil (@feyipuk) reported 58 minutes ago from Crayford, England

  @virginmedia Phoned, and as expected; they can't just "put this right". The equipment and service are working fine. That the dish is broken and there is little slack to enable me to bury the cable deeper is due to local engineers. Will just have to dig trench, break cable and wait again!

  Pippa Crowther (@getpipfit) reported 59 minutes ago from Sutton at Hone, England

  @virginmedia Thankyou. The site still won't let me check status.. reported this.. says your site down. I've now spoken to someone as I need Internet for work. Someone coming out on Saturday!

  @virginmedia hope you can help please! Our router is a hub 3. It has a constant red light. It’s not over heating, I’ve done multiple hard resets. Any suggestions? Do I need a new router?

  R.L. MacMurray 🇬🇧 (@DeviateDefiant) reported 6 minutes ago

  @DeviousPL @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt Yeah their C/S is absolutely atrocious, I'm basically 'grandfathered' into VM from when their network was the only way to get more than about 8mbit down. These days the DOCSIS/coax setup is vastly inferior to any OpenReach FTTP, with fibre directly to the socket.

  Steve Kelly (@kellyokid) reported 13 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Hi, would appreciate some contact from you! Apparently I’m now out of contract and my price per month has doubled, no communication from you and I’ve only found out because one of my boxes has decided not to work as a result of broadband connection issues! Brilliant!

• 
  Barry Stevens (@BarryStevens75) reported 13 minutes ago

  @timlimbim @virginmedia Don’t do it , I did it in February they promote you can take your contract with you but they cancel the one at your current address and issue a new one to the new property . Only issue is your promotional discount doesn’t renew on the new contract.

  Wow. I thought @virginmedia was bad but @skytv makes them look gooooood!

  Horatio Bullwinkle (@harryvek) reported 19 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Why do your customer services call me every day when I've told them I'm not interested in taking any more services than I already have. Just today I took a call and told them to stop calling me, no one answered on the other side and then just hung up, how rude !!!.

• 
  🕷️🇪🇺 🇬🇧 Uitlander (@Uitlander) reported 20 minutes ago

  @virginmedia - But you can do this in the app. Download app. Login. Accept renewal offer. - Am told new contract has been sent to an email address I removed from my account ~1 year ago. - Return to "my Account" in app. Still says my account is due for renewal

  Mr chappers (@littlechappers) reported 22 minutes ago

  @virginmedia unfortunately I'm leaving you because of the cost of the service was going up to £69 per month but a new customer can get the same package for £24 per month, my disconnection was yesterday Mon 20th July but you still haven't switched it off .
