    @ukhomeoffice @BrandonLewis ive one all this in my investigation to the fraud in court tht has a fraud log failed by @ThamesVP; via EE and well virgin media refused to co operate: fraud is easy to catches frombasic start of internet "the signal" for any signal to connect it has to have data communication

  • stevegoodman Steve Goodman (@stevegoodman) reported from Nuneaton, England

    @virginmedia I gave them a call before mentioning it on Twitter. I've sent in a complaint as a last attempt before I subscribe to another provider.

  • Kagey_infohub Kate Gordon (@Kagey_infohub) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia Not sure tbh- it took at least 2 hours for the update to complete. Our connection frequently drops and is slow.

  • Jezsuttonuk Jez Sutton (@Jezsuttonuk) reported from Nuneaton, England

    @virginmedia Please don’t try to diagnose a router fault on Twitter... just get your dismal support team to replace the router, which I have been trying for 8 months

  • Tedtalks13 Teds (@Tedtalks13) reported from Aldridge, England

    @richardbranson @virginpulse why i think virgin media having iso 90001 on testing bulk buying of @tim_cook stuff richard on your 2% losses since liberty carbon emissions uk with crap

  • stevegoodman Steve Goodman (@stevegoodman) reported from Nuneaton, England

    @virginmedia - Out of contract and tried to switch to a deal on your website. Customer services refused, claiming the £250+ more a year option I'm on is the best you'll offer. I ended up cancelling, as I'm not paying over the odds - sad I have to leave though & hoped for better!

  • gmb_sarahjames Sarah James (@gmb_sarahjames) reported from West Bromwich, England

    Really disappointed with @virginmedia call centre staff this evening, asking 10 times in the space of 20 minutes to speak to a supervisor to resolve an issue is not good enough

  • SketchXZ SketchXZ (@SketchXZ) reported from Burntwood, England

    Sorry stream was cut short @virginmedia decided it was gna go down 🖕 #twitch #internetproblems

  • thekosfox Karl (@thekosfox) reported from Nuneaton, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I'm a new customer, installation is this Saturday (24th). Our friends have recently joined you and they were offered multi-room (1 extra box) with no 'set up' costs. So I inquired and was told the same (just £7.50pm) put through to another department and told no, its £49.95.

  • Kagey_infohub Kate Gordon (@Kagey_infohub) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia I'll check, but slow connection and frequent drop is ongoing. We looked at switching but didn't move as not enough confidence in alternative ISPs tbh.

  • thekosfox Karl (@thekosfox) reported from Nuneaton, England

    @virginmedia Understandably, I was very annoyed after being on hold for 'god knows' how long to be told yes, the activation cost, £49.95 would be waived as a new customer. Then to be put through to the installation team and told NO!!! the activation cost would stand!!! Bad customer service.

  • markhipwell1990 Mark Hipwell (@markhipwell1990) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia So now I have to ring to cancel because that's too much or give you a chance to fix the price. Both take time out of my day when we only did this less then 2 months ago.

  • stevegoodman Steve Goodman (@stevegoodman) reported from Nuneaton, England

    @virginmedia No, I wasn't and that's why when customer service couldn't offer anything close to the competition or your own "new customer" offers I cancelled, prior to the first tweet. If you valued your existing customers, then once out of contract, you'd be able to offer similar deals.

  • Jezsuttonuk Jez Sutton (@Jezsuttonuk) reported from Nuneaton, England

    @virginmedia so I take a day off work to sort out the Crap Virgin Broadband and at 10am it fails. Virgin can’t send out an engineer for 2 days !! Don’t get virgin they are crap

  • Jezsuttonuk Jez Sutton (@Jezsuttonuk) reported from Nuneaton, England

    @virginmedia Spent all of my lunch time finding out why the engineer didn’t turn up this morning only to be let down on a call back at 5:30 this evening.. utterly useless

  • thekosfox Karl (@thekosfox) reported from Nuneaton, England

    So, I'm switching from Sky Tv/Broadband to @virginmedia. A friend of mine who is a new customer got multi room with no activation cost. I phone for the offer and the lady said no fee, yayyyy, I go through to another department and its £49 Being fobbed off already!!😡😡 NOT HAPPY!

  • A_Johnstone Jonno (@A_Johnstone) reported

    @virginmedia Well your operators keep hanging up on me and passing me on to other deptartments then after hours they hang up. It's so frustrating when they tell you there is no fault but it's been off for 7 days+ Working from home with no internet means I am essentially unemployed.

  • NicolaSimpson78 Nicola Simpson (@NicolaSimpson78) reported

    @virginmedia having issues again with slow internet speeds and completely losing internet connection... this is happening almost every day now, I can't get through on the phone and can't get a response on live chat....

  • michaels_shad Steve (@michaels_shad) reported

    @SuperFran @virginmedia I lose internet up to 8hrs a day at worst since April. Virgin don’t seem to be interested in fixing the problem. It was reported in May but told to report it again after official complaint. Got told no compensation under off-com rules. Hope @richardbranson is enjoying my money.

  • Phtevenrobert Phtevenrobert (@Phtevenrobert) reported

    @A_Johnstone @virginmedia They truly don't.. I've called twice today in the last hour, been palmed off both times and my upload speed has gotten worse.. absolute wankers. You think @richardbranson is having issue with his right now orrrr..? 😒

  • BradfordDulcie Dulcie Bradford (@BradfordDulcie) reported

    @virginmedia I have now reported to CIAS as I can no longer waste time on this. I work full time with children home schooling and isolating because of being in contact with covid and your internet service was appalling.

  • Farm_84 ... (@Farm_84) reported

    @virginmedia #virginmedia #Limerick Is anyone else having problems with #virginmedia at the moment?

  • BradfordDulcie Dulcie Bradford (@BradfordDulcie) reported

    @Northamptonbag1 @virginmedia I've had enough of them. Sky all the way!! And no need to pay our for extra boosters in a 3 bed house!! I've never known such a poor service in fact I don't hear much good about them

  • whywhybe BeFair (@whywhybe) reported

    @virginmedia @ItsBigZuu Cannot buy nothing with my service down to a crawl

  • whywhybe BeFair (@whywhybe) reported

    @virginmedia @NiiNiiFC @Flav_Bateman We will never know with the service almost always down

  • _iam_sb s.b (@_iam_sb) reported

    @virginmedia I can appreciate the current times are a struggle with staff etc but to charge me £136 for your services then leave me waiting to speak to someone for 50 mins (and counting) is diabolical. My contract is up and I’ve never been as close as I am now to rejoining @skytv
