• 
  Josh B (@JoshuaBurns) reported 50 seconds ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia Yes, tried last night and your service status page was actually down. Today I checked and it showed no issues, I run the diagnostic and no issues either. Came back up late this afternoon.

  @virginmedia Complaint is about billing after cancellation, your staff refusing to process my request to cancel and being told a different thing every time I call back… it’s been awful.

  Mike Chilton (@thechilledpanda) reported 6 minutes ago from Bramhall, England

  @virginmedia Unbelievable, you've sent me a dongle to connect a landline too the broadband on the 6th , so the phone line isnt going to work, though not much help on 150 as they abruptly cut you off. Website is also down.

• 
  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 10 minutes ago from Atherton, England

  @virginmedia I looked and that says it’s from the day I registered the total loss of service which was yesterday but really it should be from Friday afternoon when I did the online chat. If I DM you can you check?

  @MartinSLewis I'm not sure if you can help me but here goes , in August I ended my contract with @virginmedia & to cut a long story short they still owe me £87 .+ They sent me a cheque in my maiden name so I returned it with a second copy of my marriage cert same as in 2015 1.

  @virginmedia Not as yet. Just that my postcode seems to be affected when checking service status

• 
  Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported 21 minutes ago from Sale, England

  @virginmedia I also don’t need to monitor the quality of my broadband, I already know it’s awful. I don’t understand how that would help.

• 
  Stephen Mackenzie (@StevomacMUFC) reported 23 minutes ago from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

  @virginmedia Hi, I’m trying to raise a complaint online but I’m not receiving any acknowledgment. Is there another way I can raise my complaint? Thanks

• 
  Adam🍺 (@MCR_ADM) reported 24 minutes ago from Stockport, England

  Been on a live chat to Virgin Media since 9:30. WFH joys. Not much work has been done. But got my bill down. #CozzieLivs.

  Elisabeth Hilton (@elisabethhilto4) reported 26 minutes ago from Lowton, England

  @virginmedia Trying to make a complaint - signed up to a deal I clearly asked not to be. Your website doesn’t work and can’t get through on the phone. Can someone please dm me with a way to speak to someone urgently

• 
  Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported 30 minutes ago from Sale, England

  @virginmedia It works intermittently. When I speak to an advisor they fix the issue at that moment. Then, the next day it’ll cut out again and the process repeats. It was working when the engineer left, but it didn’t last 24 hours. Intermittent isn’t good enough. I rely on you for work.

• 
  Scott Moseley (@roslers_vest) reported 34 minutes ago from Rochdale, England

  @virginmedia Submitting a complaint will probably result in an apology at best. Given I pay £1k per annum for an unreliable service it’s time to look for an alternative provider who can offer a more satisfactory customer experience

• 
  Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported 36 minutes ago from Westhoughton, England

  @virginmedia I seem to be the first one to report them, still saying intermittent problems in my area. Can't get to speak to anyone on phone, I rely on the Internet.

  johnsonhomes (@johnsonhomes2) reported 38 minutes ago from Sale, England

  @virginmedia If that was the only issue than yes that would be the logical next step. But as you’ll see from the previous tweets and email sent on Wednesday it isn’t. All the issues need dealing with in the round or otherwise I’ll have to cancel and go back to sky.

• 
  Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported 38 minutes ago from Sale, England

  @virginmedia It’s everything connected via Wi-Fi. I don’t have the connect app. I check for service status on your website and it usually says there isn’t an issue, but that doesn’t reflect my service.

  @virginmedia Will do. That was your cue to step in and offer some ‘customer service’ btw.

• 
  Kevin Dudson (@Duddydudson) reported 45 minutes ago from Wigan, England

  @NigelJTurner @virginmedia Same for me, I can cancel or change my package by the 28th of march then get a 19% increase on my new package on the 1st of April. Only had my contract 5 months.being **** Turpind here!!!

  Probably consider an unlimited tariff at some point to make up for when Virgin Media goes down.

  @virginmedia OMG listening on the news and radio how bad you really are not looking forward to cancellation as it looks like you still pursue people but forewarned is forearmed

• 
  Mehrdad Yousefi (@MY21_Oracle) reported 6 minutes ago

  Ofcom has fined Virgin Media O2 £28mn for repeatedly preventing customers from cancelling contracts, after it found that the UK telecoms group had likely mishandled millions of customer calls.

• 
  Xmarksthespot (@hopskipjumpy) reported 8 minutes ago

  @MatthewStadlen @virginmedia Virgin Media are the single most useless, duplicitous, awful company on the planet. I wouldn't piss on them if they were on fire.

• 
  Owen Luckhurst (@DoctorDisco63) reported 8 minutes ago

  @MartinSLewis @MartinSLewis hearing about Virgin Media today I’m not surprised. They did the same to me around 2020, except they lied to me about my cancellation date. By the time I called to cancel, they said it was too late. So I disconnected everything and didn’t pay them a penny more.

• 
  Kingofsalemsdaughter (@salemsdaughters) reported 9 minutes ago

  Mishandling calls isnt reserved for virgin media but the NHS and all their staff members. I received a long awaited call from 111 regarding my toddler. Id like to note its very late and he is now asleep. Before id even said hello after answering the phone call she rudely asked if i can hear her not even saying hello herself. That was an indication the rest of the call was going to be pointless. WTF?

  Joe Naughton (@JoeNaConnacht) reported 13 minutes ago

  @mcardle_mi42856 Never even checked Virgin media 3, I’ll make sure to check it next week. Didn’t think they had live sport on there.

• 
  Charley Northwood (@CharleyNorthwo2) reported 14 minutes ago

  Problem with this is £28M is probably small pocket change to @virginmedia. They will laugh it off and carry on as they have been. What should have happened is a ban on signing up new customers for a period, say 6 months. That might have concentrated their minds a bit.

• 
  Dave (@UK_DC_One) reported 14 minutes ago

  That new @virginmedia upgrade, my advice to anyone thinking about it, DON'T DO IT!! We've had nothing but problems in our house with the WiFi since, especially in hot weather, it cuts out and drops out. Nothing but connectivity issues. It's awful. Router getting red hot constantly Helpline no use So what is the problem Virgin Media? When this was set up, your engineer assured us there would be no issues. Router checked, brand new boxes installed, so why is this happening? Seriously thinking of cancelling my contract because I'm not getting the help or service im paying for right now

  @virginmedia internet service down since 1 PM Birmingham anyone else having issues?

  Pirate (@pirate1100) reported 18 minutes ago

  @MartinSLewis Virgin Media are terrible, I had the phone package removed years ago as they kept billing me for calls I hadn’t made. If you don’t renew broadband contract they charge you extortionate fees. Terrible company.
