    @virginmedia I’ve had that email. I’ve also had another email this morning saying they’re sorry to hear I’m unhappy with my broadband speed. I’m not! I’m unhappy with a call out charge being applied, which was promised to be reversed and never has been!

  • Mcollinson72
    Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia ongoing intermittent issues with my broadband for weeks now and yet your website gives no option to get through to anyone to help despite it promising to do so. Keeps telling me to check back in 24 hours. Unacceptable level of service!

  • John_murphy1
    John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia how do I order a new hub please? My current one loses network access and needs rebooting every hour or so. Not ideal when working from home. There are no known service issues so I’m thinking it’s a hub issue.

  • a8dullah_mulla
    Abdullah Mulla (@a8dullah_mulla) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia well done 👏🏽 new way of resolving complaints! Offer a resolution that you know customer won’t accept so you can pass on to an adjudicator… all in a record time of 8mins!!!

  • ArmitageJohn
    John Armitage (@ArmitageJohn) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia hi guys, I’ve been without TV services for over two weeks now. Every attempt to@reach you has me going around in circles. Tried the app. Doesn’t recognise my email, and doesn’t recognise my acct no + area ref. Please help. Can I talk to someone?!!

  • kaw7676
    Karen Walsh (@kaw7676) reported from Normanton, England

    @virginmedia it’s impossible to contact them with a complaint if you aren’t a customer.

  • popsgolf

    @O2PriorityUK I’m struggling to connect with app. I’m a @virginmedia account holder. Initial you sent me a code but via my mobile. Now my phone number is placed in the box it doesn’t recognise it. Help?

  • Mcollinson72
    Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia awful and aggressive scare tactics from your not so friendly cancellations rep when trying to cancel my service. God help any vulnerable person that tries to do the same thing. Shameful

    Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia I’ve run test after test, at least 5-6 outages a month for last 2 years. Horrendous service and this is the final straw unless you offer me a refund of say £20 a month for last two years, if not I’m going BT and a dodgy box from Mad Frank in pub

    Virgin Media News (@VirginMediaNews) reported

    An Irish MEP is calling for a Europe-wide response to the growing crisis in farming caused by this summer’s extreme weather. Billy Kelleher says Ireland is not the only country suffering, with crop yields down massively across the continent. Here at home, the Agriculture Minister is expected to meet farming representatives this week as concerns rise over winter fodder stocks. 📺 More on Virgin Media PLAY

    @IainSankey @virginmedia These large companies Sky etc are so used to making huge amounts from the TV/broadband services - they are living on the assumption that most people will not switch. It is greed on their part, or they just do not give a damn.

  • BissellJane1
    Jane Bissell (@BissellJane1) reported

    @virginmedia another day without any internet and impossible to get a refund I had 2 days last month without service but all your staff are interested in is trying to sell products I don’t want I’ve reduced all products due to cost of living but I’m still getting calls every day

    @virginmedia Hello @virginmedia I dont think it's unreasonable to ask about a timescale for a fix and if compensation will be offered. It is however rude to ignore people

  • UnknownKussy

    anyone else having problems with virgin media ? we have full wifi bars on everything but nothing is connecting. Called virgin and they said there shows no issues #virginmedia

    Jambo (@The_real_Jambo_) reported

    @virginmedia @alexand979677 I had no TV service for 16 days during the worldcup. Eventually fixed it and they refused to discount my bill because I still had internet. Been with them for nearly 7 years, renewals up soon and the best price they can offer is £15 DEARER than my current price.

  • phil66uk
    Phil66 (@phil66uk) reported

    @virginmedia @alexand979677 And they don't take off anything if your service is down either

    Jebsy (@Jebsy40) reported

    @colinmufc2 I have been kept on hold and passed around while trying to cancel out of contract services by peoole who don't understand that others have principles and can do without or pay more for better service. Some people just want change @VirginMedia, not 50 minutes of bs and retentions.

  • sadelta99
    Andy (@sadelta99) reported

    @virginmedia well done - you fix the issue then it’s broken again so back to no services again and of course your lines are closed so no way of calling

  • RJAldous1
    Richard Aldous 🍊 (@RJAldous1) reported

    Hey @virginmedia how long does it take to sort out a connection issue as my broadband and tv went down about 14:00 and still just getting a flashing red light on my router (yes I reported it) these days it’s hard to do anything without internet access! 😡
