    Adz can't sing (@Adzcantsing) reported from Penwortham, England

    @virginmedia useless we are trying to cancel and for past 2 weeks now since we have moved home. We have been pushed from pillar to post, been laughed at by customer service. Since we moved we have we've been promised someone will come and sort it.

    @virginmedia Yet again an intermittent service in Area 20 BL1 2 this has now gone beyond a joke, paying for a service and not getting it

    @virginmedia Yeah.. apparently its down in WN1 but nobody is telling me what's wrong or how long it will take. I need Internet to work.

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia They’ve been today apparently to do the repull and nothing has changed. Still no service. I won’t be paying this month as I’m not paying for nothing.

  • BeakerRick
    Rick Leeming - Beaker (@BeakerRick) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia Yes and yes. I even wiped it totally a week or so ago. My wife as an iPhoneSE and is experiencing the same problem.

  • LindzDDub
    Lindz Devine (@LindzDDub) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp I've never had this much issue as I have had today. I'm plugged in on ethernet, I've reset my hub, and checked my area and there is no issue at all. My WiFi is working from my hub but yet its booting me out of Destiny 2 and not just that but the chat parties on PS5 itself

  • Glynpeach
    Glyn Peach (@Glynpeach) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia worst customer support service I’ve ever experienced

  • tuite_liz
    Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia 2/2 who can I speak to as it was working fine on Friday until the issues that were nothing to do with me happened, so don’t see why I should now pay for a technician

  • pillbo01
    kevin.james (@pillbo01) reported from Bolton, England

    I have virgin media but they don’t have a Customer service that you can speak to. Or email I’ve had a problem for over a month since an engineer messed about in the box in the street. Picture on tv keeps pixilated.

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia 3 x engineer visits, each time telling me there’s a blockage. Why does nobody fix it? I can’t even get through to cancel my services and get a refund for the direct debits I’ve paid when I’ve had zero service.

    @virginmedia your broadband is down again 🤬

  • Radebreast
    Graeme Radebe (@Radebreast) reported from Ormskirk, England

    @virginmedia Hi - Ive noticed alot of people are having the same issues. Its the Sky TV Go app on Playstation 4. Ive checked it on another internet and it works fine so it is definitely an error on your side. You need to sort the internet settings. It struggles to load “on Now” on the app.

  • timmycooke
    Tim Cooke 🇺🇦 (@timmycooke) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Both wired and wireless. We've had 8 engineers out, a rewire, new hub and still endless drop outs. Was told finally it was an upload issue from the amp that supplied the box on the street. But still we're having issues. The 150 number is joke, make it simple!!!

    You say you care about your customers and if you did you would fix your ******* **** Internet problems that everyone is having and don't even bother replying @virginmedia

    @virginmedia In this room have always had problems but just not like today. The router is just over 2 metres from box.

  • Elisabet0490
    🪷Elisabet🪷 (@Elisabet0490) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia my internet has been suffering drop outs all day, now I have no working TV or internet. Being told it's my equipment when it never is, it's getting old that excuse. I will apparently have to wait 3 days for "an engineer to come out" - I can't I have to go to work 😤

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia 38 days after the repull should’ve been done? You think that’s good customer service?

  • tomrushton88
    Tom Rushton (@tomrushton88) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia Or put me through to a manager or try to be remotely helpful in keeping me as a customer, im trying to sign an 18 month contract to give you money every month which I could just give to someone else I will not let this lie till i have my money back!

    @virginmedia Our teams are already working on the ongoing issue, and they’ve advised that they need a bit more time to get everything fixed. The current estimated time to resolve this is around 24 hours. Is that the time frame for fix?
