  • deankamitsis Dean Kamitsis (@deankamitsis) reported from Preston, England

    Hey @virginmedia I’m going round the bend trying to cancel services with you for over a week now. I’m deaf so can’t call, I’m not receiving responses via SMS or Live Chat. No emails, nothing.

  • Dannymaddog Danny McKeown-Henshall (@Dannymaddog) reported from Whittle-le-Woods, England

    @PeterBayliss @Ofcom Must be a local issue for you - I’ve been relying on @ThreeUK for broadband as my @virginmedia 100mbps fibre line has been epically slow even phone calls made on Wifi calling are bad, switch to mobile and it’s perfect 👌

  • ShitofHan Hannah🌹 (@ShitofHan) reported from Liverpool, England

    Another day of me hot spotting to have a Zoom call! Thanks @VOXI_UK for having signal when @virginmedia doesn’t work!

  • Hortini Rick Houghton (@Hortini) reported from Liverpool, England

    I see @virginmedia have it sorted. You can only cancel or suspend your sports subscription if you call them. Reduced call centres meaning massive waits on the phone. But if you don’t pay they cut your internet and tv off at the time of most need. Let us do it online!!!!

  • DGParkinson @dgparkinson (@DGParkinson) reported from Standish, England

    @virginmedia I have a vulnerable customer aged 89 who needs urgent help with fault on phone line - can’t get through on phone please respond

  • MarkHughes_ MH (@MarkHughes_) reported from Liverpool, England

    @jamiec1995 @virginmedia Won’t show the 5G network on the wireless at all, reboots back the the 2G one its saving the settings then when you click WiFi it’s not there and reverts back to only showing the previous WiFi’s

  • Niarosita_ Nia (@Niarosita_) reported from Liverpool, England

    Why are virgin media so shit (I’m willing to bet it’s because of Branson)

  • Bridgey36 Bridgeman ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (@Bridgey36) reported from Eccleston, England

    Come on @virginmedia I am still waiting for you to cancel / freeze my sky sports subscription. This is three weeks since I first contacted you.

  • ciaranharkin ℂ𝕚𝕒𝕣𝕒𝕟 (@ciaranharkin) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia hi really need to cancel my broadband account with yourselves but i cant get thru and been ringing for the past couple of days. My new bill has come out (which is extortionate) i was told i could cancel before this but its proving difficult

  • stu_nico Stu Nicholls (@stu_nico) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    So the lack of response and the fact there is no online option to manage my BT Sport subscription means I have no option to choke up the call lines.. So much for easing the burden and stress on the customer service teams you employ @virginmedia @Virgin

  • glynfletcher Glyn Fletcher ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (@glynfletcher) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia are just great, takes 25 mins to speak to someone who cant help or understand the problem so they put me though to the "concern team" but I'm cut off whilst on hold !

  • Elle_Pee_x Danielle ❤ (@Elle_Pee_x) reported from Liverpool, England

    @SkyHelpTeam And you can tell me you’re not willing to “provide me with further assistance” but when I refuse to pay my bill and move over to @virginmedia I’ll be telling sky it was due to the SHITTY service I received on Twitter ...

  • rascas1 Cass (@rascas1) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia No yourstating something you can not Provide after 47 mins your phones drop out the web site robots help chat tells me to ring very poor

  • coffiman48 Graham Duke (@coffiman48) reported from Maghull, England

  • HiromKate Kate Hirom (@HiromKate) reported

    @Killzone_Kid @virginmedia Yep. I’ve been gone 4 months and I still get messages telling me the engineer is on site and trying to fix it. As if I care.

  • cazawaty Cazawaty#Zanumustgo #SKILLEDREBARA (@cazawaty) reported

    @virginmedia 1/3 - 6 properties using virgin, broadband kept dropping off. It was more apparent how rubbish connection was during COVID. I called virgin on several times, I was told "yes there is a problem it will be fixed by the 7th....

  • brendanvet brendan robinson (@brendanvet) reported

    @virginmedia So to summarise, Virginmedia advises to stay with them, and then cuts my service off without forewarning and cannot reconnect me? Is that good service? After two hours patiently on the phone, place me on hold for thirty minutes then disconnect me?

  • liverbird850 Shirley, YNWA ❤ (@liverbird850) reported

    @virginmedia My issue was it was & did go up £4.50 after I agreed my payment. Customer service was shocking when I called. Pretty much said tough & pay to leave. When advised on twitter to go through automated service & I would get that money off. My argument is, why did I have to do that?

  • Radar_Wilton Michael Wilton (@Radar_Wilton) reported

    @virginmedia Various things. They've done updates, new equipment, resets ... pretty much everything ... and so many apology bill credits that even they aren't worth the effort any more. Add that to the fact that the only reliable service is the landline, it is no longer worth the price paid

  • ReKoill ReKoill (@ReKoill) reported

    How can @virginmedia tell me there's nothing wrong with my router, say it's a network issue, have no issues showing on the network status website and tell me to wait 7 days before they'll actually try helping?

  • Radar_Wilton Michael Wilton (@Radar_Wilton) reported

    @virginmedia An intermittent area issue that has gone unresolved for around 2 years? I would assume not, otherwise that should have been determined with the reports that have been made over the course of around the first 18 months

  • jbell32403 Jay🇬🇧 (@jbell32403) reported

    @virginmedia No they haven’t advised what the issue is other than cabling outside

  • HiromKate Kate Hirom (@HiromKate) reported

    @Killzone_Kid @virginmedia This is true. I was a customer for years and always spoke highly of them. Then it all went pear shaped.

  • phil_marriott Phil Marriott Ⓥ (@phil_marriott) reported

    Seriously @virginmedia, your service is the worst. Do you honestly think that internet connection going down more than once a week - for most of the day - is acceptable? Please advise me how compensation can be received.
