    @SkyHelpTeam hope all is well, @virginmedia have just increased my bill again for broadband (£32 increase per month in the last 10 months, disgraceful) are there any deals for a Sky customer for broadband?

    @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!!!!

    @virginmedia can you help? We’ve been struggling with internet for last 3 weeks. Now dropping on daily basis and devices not connecting. Spent 1.5hrs talking on Thurs... was promised a call back yesterday but received nothing and still major issues. Can someone pls call?

  • Gazimoff
    Gareth “Gazimoff” Harmer (@Gazimoff) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia That’s right. We’d moved house and we’re hoping to keep you with us, but there’s been over a month of delays (issues with current cable). I need it for work, so I’ve been forced to cancel and organise alternatives.

    @virginmedia Suddenly came back online yesterday afternoon ...so suggests there was an issue elsewhere. Thanks for your replies

    @virginmedia Hi - I'm in Rg22 and Internet has been down since about 11am - do you have an eta for when this will be fixed? Thanks

    . 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

  • Loafite
    Tony Phillips (@Loafite) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Thanks @virginmedia perhaps you should be making the effort to get me to stay as a customer. Hopefully @SkyHelpTeam will be able to offer me something more cost effective

  • 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

  • JobbyOvy
    Jon Bond (@JobbyOvy) reported from Basingstoke, England

    Phoned @virginmedia tonight to cancel, as my price was going to £74 from £55 a month. Best they could offer was £60 a month even though as a new customer it is currently £50 a month! I was told if they offered their current customers those prices, they’d go out of business...

  • 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

    Katy Blay (@littlekatyb) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Hi! Our landline is being switched over to fibre on the 4th October, however our landline and WiFi hub are not on the same floor so we cannot connect them. Help please!

    Imagine being half way through a chat with virgin media about WiFi not working. It then kicks me off cause of intermittent WiFi in the area (issue I’ve had for about 7 months lol) and now I can’t get back on to it. What a waste of 50 mins of my life

  • yiuonmw

    @virginmedia Nah, this is not on. What is this UK side internet issues going on the past few weeks. What is the estimated turn around on a full resolution?

  • PaulJamesSmith4
    Paul James Smith (@PaulJamesSmith4) reported

    @misselledee @virginmedia Generic bot replies as usual. Their customer service doesn’t exist. How they’re still in business amazes me.

  • pokerchamp_Cbbo
    Cububo (@pokerchamp_Cbbo) reported

    @koenjideck Only worked well for me in recent years, but it gave me a decade of packet loss and outages before then 😵‍💫 I remember playing games with people on my street at uni, and half the people would disconnect in a lobby whenever Virgin Media had an outage 🥀

    Tiz (@Tiz1132667) reported

    @virginmedia It's becoming ridiculous the amount of times "there is an outage in my area." Think it may be time to move to another provider!

    @virginmedia what kind of tin-pot internet service are you providing? Broadband outages for multiple hours on April 4th, April 6th and now today, April 12th
