    @virginmedia Afternoon, I have an iPad with a Virgin SIM card that I no longer use. Obviously still need to pay off the monthly device fee but am I able to cancel the SIM plan?

  • Radebreast Graeme Radebe (@Radebreast) reported from Ormskirk, England

    @virginmedia what have you done to the Sky TV app - its constantly buffering and showing error messages. Just awful service. Please can you get this sorted ASAP please.

  • BeakerRick Rick Leeming - Beaker (@BeakerRick) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia Yes and yes. I even wiped it totally a week or so ago. My wife as an iPhoneSE and is experiencing the same problem.

  • Madhornet73 Lee Thomas (@Madhornet73) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia Why is the red button not working on SkySports

  • BooCavapoo BooCavapoo 🐶 (@BooCavapoo) reported from Penwortham, England

    @virginmedia please sort out the issues with the WiFi, Internet, broadband or whatever the term us these days. It is constantly slow or not working. Having to use mobile data is not an effective substitute for the service I am paying for.

  • Madhornet73 Lee Thomas (@Madhornet73) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia The red button is not working again for the football

  • agarnett Adam (@agarnett) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Is there any way to tell if there are signal issues in your area? This says i should get 4g indoors and outdoors, i dont though i can barely access mobile internet from my house. Last 3 months have been awful

  • fos100 Richard Foster (@fos100) reported from New Longton, England

    @virginmedia It’s an ongoing issue and an engineer is due out on Thursday but today the internet decided it didn’t want to work on my laptop

  • Tiiredbunny Bunny 💙 (@Tiiredbunny) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia I will leave it open but nothing popped up earlier should I sign in?

  • mgsevs sevs66 (@mgsevs) reported from Kirkham, England

    @virginmedia @1862_TwoPies Cut and paste Cut and paste Cut and paste That is NOT customer service even if you fake it to be

  • Radebreast Graeme Radebe (@Radebreast) reported from Ormskirk, England

    @virginmedia Hi - Ive noticed alot of people are having the same issues. Its the Sky TV Go app on Playstation 4. Ive checked it on another internet and it works fine so it is definitely an error on your side. You need to sort the internet settings. It struggles to load “on Now” on the app.

  • BooCavapoo BooCavapoo 🐶 (@BooCavapoo) reported from Penwortham, England

    @virginmedia No, that's not possible as the yoga device does not have wired port. The WiFi just needs sorting out. Its been terrible for weeks @virginmedia

  • geordiegal97 Amy 🌼 (@geordiegal97) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia broadband is down. WiFi light is solid green whilst the bar is flashing green. Help!

  • ylilxanoi 🥔 A bean has no name 🥔 (@ylilxanoi) reported from Wigan, England

    @Virgin @virginmedia I've had no Internet now for 14 days and my bill is due in 2 days. This is disgusting service, your call centre staff are useless, your engineers are useless, this is appalling for £52 a month. Sort the problem out now.

  • ylilxanoi 🥔 A bean has no name 🥔 (@ylilxanoi) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Yeah.. apparently its down in WN1 but nobody is telling me what's wrong or how long it will take. I need Internet to work.

  • BeanBolt BeanBolt (@BeanBolt) reported from Southport, England

    @virginmedia It says no issue in the area, then when I click "still having issues" the local scan shows intermittent outages in the area, been like this for 24hrs+

  • ylilxanoi 🥔 A bean has no name 🥔 (@ylilxanoi) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia my interest been down for a whole week. Call centre staff don't know what to say. An engineer has been on site every single day apparently. Can someone fix my internet. I pay £52 a month this is beyond a joke. I've used all my 4g& bought a ****** dongle just to WFH

  • DannyLannon dannyWAFClannon (@DannyLannon) reported from Wigan, England

    @Louisewafc @virginmedia Nice of Stoke fans turn up to support us

  • TheRealRagtag Stephen Murtagh (@TheRealRagtag) reported from Penwortham, England

    Not very often I say good things about @virginmedia but todays service was excellent. Peter sorted out Wi-fi problem, wavered the set up fee, and arranged a new hub after lots of line tests. Thank you. (But will have no service for 6 days in all.🙄 Refund?)

  • NeckSausage NeckSausage (@NeckSausage) reported from Tarleton, England

    @virginmedia Broadband down yet again. This is ridiculous.

  • E_Proudfoot Everard Proudfoot (@E_Proudfoot) reported

    Never been able to understand why Virgin Media can offer a joint Sky Sports and BT Sport package for less than the providers

  • NShort44 Nathanial (@NShort44) reported

    @virginmedia Can you help me with status of a phone order I made today? It says parked but when I go through my email to learn more it says "Thanks for your order"

    @Prattypus_ @virginmedia The website is working, had a look and engineers being sent to fix a fault. Current estimate is fix by 18.20.

  • RosaleenMary Rosaleen (@RosaleenMary) reported

    @virginmedia I've been trying to get through to you for 40 minutes. Do you answer the phone? I'm concerned that we had a scam call claiming to be you and would greatly welcome the opportunity to talk to someone in customer care

  • dutyofcare2020 Ash (@dutyofcare2020) reported

    @virginmedia I have been on the phone to VM who did not know there was an outage problem in my area! Now they say it will not be fixed till tomorrow! My kid has to log in to UCAS tomorrow! I am so upset

  • mnietophotouk Marina Nieto (@mnietophotouk) reported

    @virginmedia Definitely not a very good service, is it? At least not what is expected from a company like yours, while you can pay online for everything. Really disappointed with your low standards in customer service.

  • SteveWasteney Steve (@SteveWasteney) reported from Netley, England

    @virginmedia What is Your issue with Netflix. It is working on my separate devices and my TV if I connect without using Virgin TV

  • MrsOrnsack Hannah Brain (@MrsOrnsack) reported

    @virginmedia My internet costs jumped £20 a month last year, when new customers get cheaper deals. Yet loyal customers get stung and rubbish service.
