    @virginmedia your internet has been rubbish recently with varying speeds as low as 5mb 1 minute then 95mb the next! Now it’s gone down completely! On top of not being able to speak with anyone I don’t feel that your service is worth it! #rubbishservice

  • moebius1967 ron palmer (@moebius1967) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    Had a real problem with Virgin media. Was paying this month's bill when Virgin had a problem as with its auto payment service and the payment couldn't be processed. I then tried again via their website and the payment went through......

  • hungoverdrawn Robert Shaw (@hungoverdrawn) reported from Wainscott, England

    @virginmedia It's started working this morning after 24 hours down, bit strange that your website said there were no service issues anywhere 😒 I guess I'll cancel that engineer visit now.

  • GrandmasterAce1 kali ace (@GrandmasterAce1) reported from Grays, England

  • MLong94 Mark.. (@MLong94) reported from Grays, England

    Imagine my shock. Virgin media telly and internet down, AGAIN. **** *****

  • polhilljim Rochester Boy. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 (@polhilljim) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia This is a long story. But Virgin have changed my IMEI number making a second repair not possible. My account is down and even Virgin can't access it. I've been promised calls back several times but they've not happened. The litany of Virgin failures is impossible to put in a text

  • Bunglebob66 Robert Bailey (@Bunglebob66) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia get enough money from me and all the others get enough, from the rest of the paying public. So stop being greedy, stop paying the Premier clubs so much and wages will have to come down. There, sorted!

  • _SamButler Sam #GSBOUT (@_SamButler) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia BT Sports 2 picture keeps getting distorted... any other channel is fine can you help please

  • DronePilotGeoff Geoff Watkins (@DronePilotGeoff) reported from Gillingham, England

    @fasurveyors @virginmedia I have to say; I’m normally pretty pleased with @virginmedia internet. It’s normally fast and reliable. But last couple of days has been awful. It’s getting too expensive as well

  • polhilljim Rochester Boy. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 (@polhilljim) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia I need to speak to a manager who can help. They don't seem to want to. I have a contract phone, it won't charge, it's under guarantee, I'm paying you and you won't help.

  • TDF_TT TDF TT (@TDF_TT) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia TV outage ME4?

  • polhilljim Rochester Boy. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 (@polhilljim) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia I've already done that. They've made promises but done nothing. I always have to chase you. Phone backs just don't happen. Nobody wants to help.

  • rob_green86 Rob Green Jnr (@rob_green86) reported from Thundersley, England

    @westbrookdanni @virginmedia Up to 2 weeks ago I didn't have a bad word to say about them. The pure fact you can't get through to someone is the worst of it. Happy to take your money and trim your internet speeds!

  • moebius1967 ron palmer (@moebius1967) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @bushontheradio Trying to get through to Virgin media to cancel the contract. Bloody chatbot isn't worth a ****

  • GrandmasterAce1 kali ace (@GrandmasterAce1) reported from Grays, England

    Virgin media users any issues 😣?

  • goonerlgh Lawrence Hooker (@goonerlgh) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia Third Superhub and it's just as unreliable as the previous two. Frequently has to be reset. Slow speeds, unstable wifi. When are you going to replace it with decent hardware?

  • rob_green86 Rob Green Jnr (@rob_green86) reported from Thundersley, England

    Anyone else really struggling with slow speeds over the last 10 days with @virginmedia. It's been spot on for 2 years now and then 10 days it seems something has happened. Lucky to get over 10Mb now 🙈

  • moebius1967 ron palmer (@moebius1967) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    I'm having real trouble cancelling my Virgin media account. Cant6v chat them, can't email them now on hold for 10 minutes. Just want to end the contract give 30 days notice. New promotion only for new customers. Wtf?

  • keldaaa Kelda🥤 (@keldaaa) reported from Canvey Island, England

    @virginmedia I can’t seem to find an email address or postal address for general queries, can you please provide me with one? My nan is now in a care home with dementia and we need to cancel her landline, broadband & mobile on her behalf so need to write to you to give details.

  • SaintTractor TractorSaint (@SaintTractor) reported

    @virginmedia Seriously? They cut me off after 30 minutes of being passed from pillar to post. How do I Whatsapp with you instead if your twitter account can't help?

  • ashthedrum Ash Smith (@ashthedrum) reported

    @virginmedia My phone is virgin, my wife’s o2. Both of which have got drastically worse for Wi-Fi signal the last few months and my 4g is terrible on phone also. The status showed no outages. Just said all of our devices have low signal. Even though lots are in the same room as the hub.

  • GazzaAdams Gary Adams (@GazzaAdams) reported

    @virginmedia Does #virginmedia offer a callback service? I’ve been on hold over an hour in total, this is ridiculous now. I must put the kids to bed. G

  • RMc711 Ryan McMurdo (@RMc711) reported

    @virginmedia Your equipment, as there was no issue with the fees into the building but rather the coverage/signal the hub is providing.

  • nicnacb nicola hartley (@nicnacb) reported

    @virginmedia This is completely unacceptable! What if I was an elderly person who didn’t have access to apps such as WhatsApp or Twitter. I’ve not even been provided with a complaint reference number!

  • Alotazak Tee (@Alotazak) reported

    @virginmedia My broadband has been down for over an hour. I can’t even use your test because that’s not loading. I have a presentation tomorrow , have an online training all day any idea when it’ll be back.? I Want realistic answers, last time it was 3 days, I was told 24hrs
