    @virginmedia Not only do I have TV issues also my internet keeps dropping out! And yes re booting it does sort it out but rather annoying clambering behind the TV all the time 🤬

    @Strippin @btbusinesscare @WeAreOpenreach Internet I'm the UK is shockingly awful. It took Virgin Media 6 months to install a cable to my house after repeatedly stating it would only take 1-2 months. 🙈

    @virginmedia Doesn't help answer my question. The virgin media app restricts a user to just the channels. Whereas on the @btsport app the user can stream all games and switch between the matches.

    Ah well. So it will be good riddence to @EE at the end of my contract and hello to @virginmedia and @Virgin as they have been excellent dealing with my wife's issues unlike you lot. Dreadful service from @EE where the customer is taken for granted. #poorservice #poorcustomercare

    Mrs R (@KateRenton) reported from Merton, England

    @Chelsea1504 @virginmedia We lost service on Thursday 19th December at 9:30 am we regained service at 6:00am on the 23rd December. There were talks between @virginmedia and local Cllrs that full refunds will be given from first to last day. Let’s hope that @virginmedia doesn’t go back on their word

    @virginmedia 8 pound credit for 4 days with no service in SW19! Not the best customer retention strategy. 😫

    @virginmedia , how can some One be removed from your mailing list, as they keep getting mail shots, but have no wish to be a virgin cus tomer, and find these letters irritating. Thanking you In anticipation of your help in this matter.

    TF (@thegaffaa) reported from Ilford, England

    @justinw03816934 @virginmedia Held on for 33 minutes to be told they need to transfer me to another person. They are just leading their customers on. @virginmedia are awful...

  • Patrick60425645

    @virginmedia Yes, fix the navigation, have serious look at you chat app, as in the Name chat, is not what your application does, you using AI/ word recognition and you still list the reply as Agent. Having spent 10 min on your site. No thanks Virgin.

  • Nico_Macdonald
    Nico Macdonald (@Nico_Macdonald) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia Thank you. I'm way beyond reviewing your site for tech support (which is limited) and have cancelled my account. I asked Virgin Media to take some responsibility for 5 months of problems by not charging us for the 30 day cancellation period but they wouldn't even consider this.

  • KateRenton
    Mrs R (@KateRenton) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia It was registered online with yourselves. You’ve still sent me a full invoice for loss of service in December. Don’t send me links I’ve already completed.

  • SueGMBE
    Sue Gower MBE (@SueGMBE) reported from Crayford, England

    @NRCUK @virginmedia We got so fed up with virgin’s poor connection we’ve gone back to BT ...

    dmxcrew (@dmxcrew) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia Engineer noted it last month when he fixed telephone line. It has become worse overnight, probably hit by a car. Have reported via virgin media online complaint also.

  • mattwhiteski
    Matt White (@mattwhiteski) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia 2 weeks with no internet. Four phone calls (one hour each). Three engineer visits cancelled. I even tried calling you BEFORE today's engineer visit to try to stop you cancelling it but no luck. Please help. Nobody on the number you provide is able to do so.

    @virginmedia right, what about my issue though? i shouldn't have to make 14 calls over 6 days....

  • bridgetmck
    bridgetmck (@bridgetmck) reported

    @virginmedia I don't use your service. The discussion was about @brooktop68's service, and the fact that the provision has been problematic in my own area for years.

  • vbcatlady
    Venetia B (@vbcatlady) reported

    @virginmedia Yes..says there are no device issues...as I say it happens regularly for varying amounts of time, has been an issue for quite a while causing my teenage son to become frustrated as he is the one it affects for the majority of the time as I am usually at work

  • LadyDaveO
    Lady Dave (@LadyDaveO) reported

    @virginmedia Is this not said raised complaint?

  • captain_konica
    Vee (@captain_konica) reported

    The number of cold calls I have to answer from @virginmedia at work is phenomenal, and they are so rude when you tell them they're calling a hospital. its bad enough you're trying to take over our NHS, without wasting our work time too.

  • chrishenry88
    chris henry (@chrishenry88) reported

    @virginmedia into the third week of awful WiFi , extremely slow sometimes no connection at all , I expect you’ll want paying this month too !

  • missradhikaj
    Radhika Jesani (@missradhikaj) reported

    @virginmedia This isn’t user friendly at all for me to lodge a complaint. Is there an email address that I can use? Three weeks of no phone line, 8 months with pixelating channels on both TVs, slow internet speed and no one wants to resolve the issue.
