  • stefaniantiques Stefani Antiques (@stefaniantiques) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia I joined yesterday and was expecting super fast fibre broadband and got intermittent slow. Liverpool L18 area. Not a good start. #regrets

  • stefaniantiques Stefani Antiques (@stefaniantiques) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia I rang support yesterday and they said an ongoing issue that could take up to a week and when I follow your link it says no known issues. #mixedmessages

  • stephraim83 Steven E Whittaker (@stephraim83) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia Sorry @virginmedia I don't wanna complain but your engineer has just left, my services still aren't working I rang customer services and they fobbed me off. They said said we're closing soon so ring back tomo. Not good enough.

  • Sauber_Dave David Kelly (@Sauber_Dave) reported from Maghull, England

    @virginmedia That was just a number to check if there were any known issues in my area. Not very helpful.

  • TerryBpne Terry Brooks (@TerryBpne) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @virginmedia @Mr_Mark_Taylor Full month refund please at least. I didn't go to the game and my sons missed football training for something we have paid for and cant access. What are you going to do about it @virginmedia The service is a joke!!

  • webbynfluk Raymond Webster (@webbynfluk) reported from Penwortham, England

    @virginmedia can we sort the red button issue out please

  • sandras_smith Sandra SmithMND (@sandras_smith) reported from St Helens, England

    @Danielle869 @virginmedia I agree. The service my 85 year old dad received was appalling. Moved to Sky, when @virginmedia asked how they could keep custom, our reply “ wouldn’t have if it was free”.

  • AHeywood_84 Andy (@AHeywood_84) reported from Golborne, England

    @virginmedia I want to cancel my contract, why cant I do this over live chat or online without someone keeping me on the phone trying to sell me a deal that is far worse than you signed me up with!! Offer me a good deal to keep me, or just let me cancel without fuss, Sort it out!

  • TezzP Tezz P (@TezzP) reported from Haydock, England

    Another weekend, another issue with Virgin media broadband, this has to be the worst broadband ive ever had #flakyatbest @virginmedia

  • AHeywood_84 Andy (@AHeywood_84) reported from Golborne, England

    So, at the end of my @virginmedia contract, question is, stick or twist, cost is going up and I do wonder what @SkyUK @SkyHelpTeam could offer as a returning customer, we shall see!

  • cadeharry Nightsky Ceilings (@cadeharry) reported from Euxton, England

    @virginmedia WTF INTERNET DOWN .Record message should be back running by 12.05am Are you serious.

  • AHeywood_84 Andy (@AHeywood_84) reported from Golborne, England

    @virginmedia I want to cancel my contract, why cant I do this over live chat or online without someone keeping me on the phone trying to sell me a deal that is far worse than you signed me up with!! Iffer me a good deal to keep me, ir just let me cancel without fuss, Sort it out!

  • _DebDeb_ Deb Deb (@_DebDeb_) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia wow called up to cancel and the guy says I’ve successfully cancelled and then hangs up!!! Thank god I’ve decided not to go with you!

  • TerryBpne Terry Brooks (@TerryBpne) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @virginmedia @SLK1971PNE Patience! Too late now it is half time ! What a shoddy service and obscene with the vast profits you make. Lots of refunds needed.

  • stephraim83 Steven E Whittaker (@stephraim83) reported from Chorley, England

    Dear @virginmedia I'm not one to complain, however in this instance I feel I have to. I've been paying over the odds for your service for 6 years now... with only a few issues. 3 week ago my services just stopped working, bizarrely after I'd payed for pay per view...

  • TerryBpne Terry Brooks (@TerryBpne) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @virginmedia @CowburnMarc @virginmedia you know this is not working so why send out standard template reply. Customers pay fortunes for this, action required and money refunds needed.

  • Jonesj1988 Jonesy (@Jonesj1988) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia what’s going on with your customer service line the waiting times are ridiculous!!!! I only need to give you a pac number to get my number transferred why am I regretting switching providers already haven’t even got started yet 😡

  • martinthorne Martin Thorne (@martinthorne) reported

    @Mitz__P @virginmedia @O2 I'm a customer of both too. I wonder if they'll merge (and renew) my accounts before my current contacts are up and therefore give the chance to upgrade early, and include a loyalty discount 🤔

  • frozenwarning FW (@frozenwarning) reported

    "Bell, who had a previous conviction for stalking another ex-girlfriend, was repeatedly arrested but continued to hound the victim" AND HE KEPT HIS JOB! WTF @virginmedia ?!

  • fottoc F. Otto Chua (@fottoc) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, your voice message indicates that you are aware of the outage and that engineers will be on site. The outage started last night at around 22:00. Mr. #Branson needs to know that Virgin Media affects more people than Virgin Galactic or even Virgin Altantic for that matter.

  • NotoSocialists Fed Up Of Socialists (@NotoSocialists) reported

    @graham_bloor @avroenergy Customer service is as bad as virgin media

  • O2 O2 in the UK (@O2) reported

    @martinthorne Hi Martin, everything remains the same for now, so a customer’s existing O2 and Virgin Media deals won’t change. But we’re looking at what we can offer joint customers in the future. Make sure you're opted in for marketing, to hear about any new offers.

  • Kendall100Nick nick kendall (@Kendall100Nick) reported

    @virginmedia The only thing I can assume is that you are failing to deliver your promised service to so many customers, that you simply couldn’t afford to be honest and offer automatic refund/account credits. But if you did I think customers would be much less cynical about you....

  • Lisa_P117 Lisa Patel (@Lisa_P117) reported

    @virginmedia 2 weeks of super slow / consistently cutting out broadband not even reaching the speeds I’m paying for. What is going on?

  • wahc_operator Herman Toothrot (@wahc_operator) reported

    @Mitz__P @virginmedia @O2 "loyal" that means nothing, I've been on the network since before it was NTL and now it's Liberty Global (VM).

  • rhysymitch Rhys Mitchell (@rhysymitch) reported

    @virginmedia my mobile with a virgin mobile sim has just told me that a new service provider has been setup. Does this mean I am now using VM on o2 and not Vodafone? Signal also seems to have dropped for me.

  • LeanneCoyne1 Leanne Coyne (@LeanneCoyne1) reported

    @virginmedia literally the most abysmal customer service today ! Absolutely raging !!!!!!!’ Cannot cope with these children you employ
