    @virginmedia Hi yes I’ve done this numerous times and spoken to many people on chat and always been told I will get a call to discuss and I never hear back. I just want someone to look into why we cannot get it but it’s available on our road. Thanks

  • skearney7 Stuart Kearney (@skearney7) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Not really. I have made arrangements to bring my account up to date and close it as I am a responsible person. However as a result of the U Switch service not working. I have paid you £150 extra for a service that I have not used. So from my point of view I am very frustrated

  • lissaburns Melissa Burns (@lissaburns) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @tonight__we_fly @virginmedia Exactly this 👆🏻... at least long serving customers are apparently all treated equally... with poor service 😭

  • JGrenvillewood Joshua Grenville-Wood (@JGrenvillewood) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia fix your WiFi services. Can’t even get the tv to connect let alone a phone or a laptop. Terrible WiFi

  • CathyTVNews Cathy Alexander (@CathyTVNews) reported from Thatcham, England

    What's the problem @virginmedia ? No broadband all day in RG18. Work day wasted. Your signal check says "problems" but no updates. Can't get thro to customer service.

  • AfroChuck87 Dan 🇪🇺 #TitanUp (@AfroChuck87) reported from Basingstoke, England

    . Why have you hung up on be after being on hold after 40 minutes. Your customer service is an absolute disgrace. You should be ashamed. @virginmedia

  • pilot_paul Pilot_Paul (@pilot_paul) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia @joelycollinsx Hilarious. You get a link after ringing the number but the website is down

  • richcon98 Richard Conway (@richcon98) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia I have to say @virginmedia are one of the worst companies to contact if you have an issue. Their message system is a joke and accounts a shambles. @skyuk is looking a better prospect!!!!

  • pilot_paul Pilot_Paul (@pilot_paul) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @ianmills99 @virginmedia No internet in RG21 either. Cannot even get on to the service page on my mobile

  • timofnewbury Tim Thomas 🍻🇪🇺🔶 I ❤️ NHS (@timofnewbury) reported from Newbury, England

    Virgin broadband up and down like a yo yo in Newbury RG14 6 @virginmedia

  • jim_millen Jim Millen (@jim_millen) reported from Thatcham, England

    Went to @virginmedia online support last night - ran their automated test tool & identified a problem somewhere our end. Offered to request an engineer visit...

  • MatildaDr Joanne Wells (@MatildaDr) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia you used to be great, but now not so great. I lose my internet connection far more frequently now. There’s an error when I try and change my package online. I’ve phoned customer service now I have to call tomorrow as your systems are down for changing packages

  • ed_chivers Ed Chivers 🇪🇺💙 (@ed_chivers) reported

    Our @virginmedia TV and internet just went out in Sheffield S6 - anyone else having problems?

  • ClassicSoulDJ Shorty (@ClassicSoulDJ) reported

    @virginmedia Service is fine as it works downstairs in our house but not upstairs - your engineers have said that the walls are too thick and the signal doesn’t travel upstairs - need a wi fi booster for upstairs @virginmedia

  • Teddy_2886 pedro 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Teddy_2886) reported

    @VMO2News @virginmedia Aye but does it stay connected or ***** of randomly like your usual connection ram it up yer arse lost a customer tonight

  • thetrainfiasco Jonny (@thetrainfiasco) reported

    @virginmedia Hey, everything's working again since last night. I checked your out age monitor but the button doesn't work so I couldn't see anything. Not sure what happened. Thanks anyway.

  • kathycotter67 Kathy Harris (@kathycotter67) reported

    @virginmedia WiFi down again, told there is an issue with router and need to monitor it for up to 7 days - working from home and my employer (rightly so) won’t accept that. Paying £70pcm totally unacceptable. Please call me back.

  • danjconn Dan Conn (@danjconn) reported

    @Garyw_ @LisaForteUK I personally left Virgin Media after finding out they store passwords in plain text and consider this something that doesn't need changing. I would wager that if people lost something they cared about then reputational damage would occur.

  • Danjsalt Dan Salt (@Danjsalt) reported

    The Virgin media wi-fi system on the London tube is embarrassingly bad The network engineers should be kneecapped for crimes against the internet world

  • DebWalk19961736 do what you can, where you are (@DebWalk19961736) reported

    @zeinanao @EE @virginmedia is O KAY, but when they stop working tell them if you expect to be compensated. They'll be there providing no service for hours/days giving no compensation unless you mention it. They are good while they are working though. Can handle HEAVY use.

  • SiggsDan Dan Siggs (@SiggsDan) reported

    @virginmedia @richardbranson Why am I sitting in my home office with my laptop tethered to my phone looking at your router and booster blinking moronically and uselessly at me? You are both expensive AND poor.

  • carterbluenose carter (@carterbluenose) reported

    @virginmedia you need to improve your signal in monkspath solihull
