  • jooz282 Julie McCarthy (@jooz282) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia It was a little more than short lasting pixelation! The channel kept dropping completely and during the main fight it felt like we were watching in slow motion.

  • 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 ****

  • 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 🙈

  • 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.

  • KeeleyOF101 Keeley O'Flaherty (@KeeleyOF101) reported from Thundersley, England

    @virginmedia you came to my mums house to fix cable. You’ve left having disconnected her phone line and sent it to a neighbour house who is now being rude. Been on hold hour on phone. Both in poor health phone Essential

  • 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

  • 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

    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......

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • jooz282 Julie McCarthy (@jooz282) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia problems with the boxing again tonight - paid for @anthonyfjoshua fight and keep getting pixelated picture and channel going off air entirely - is it being sorted?

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

    @SunveerC26 @_amansanger_ @virginmedia This is so rude, how do u guys have footage of me waiting for the internet to come back up 👀👀 booky

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

    @virginmedia hi could please let me know how I can cancel my contract ?? My bills are about £30/40 a month higher than most people I know

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • itsallfudge jason fudge (@itsallfudge) reported

    @virginmedia what's going on. Internet intermittently dropping out on both wired and wireless connections. 2 kids homeschooling 2 parents wfh. Customer services impossible to get hold of

  • theMrsH89 Lou💫 (@theMrsH89) reported

    Since upgrading to the best internet on @virginmedia the internet connection has been appalling!! Just cut out on my 9 year old’s zoom lesson with an author on world book day!! Why should I pay £6.99 for a booster when I’m paying for apparently the best!

  • brightsitedes Andy | Brighton Website Design (@brightsitedes) reported

    @virginmedia I've seen you advising people to call with issues. When I call, it advises going online if you have issues? I've got intermittent quality on my broadband. I've tested online and reset. Is it possible to request a Hub 4?

  • DaveThompsonUK 𝙳𝚊𝚟𝚒𝚍 𝚃𝚑𝚘𝚖𝚙𝚜𝚘𝚗 (@DaveThompsonUK) reported

    @virginmedia New customer, online order 'cancelled' & placed manually by telesales operator (commission??), delivery now postponed by 3 weeks. New details wrong (extra charges) - no one cares or listens - can't speak to anyone! Poor customer service - having second thoughts!

  • AdamSThompson92 Adam Thompson (@AdamSThompson92) reported

    @virginmedia Says everything is fine but works like crap.

  • bertsdem Bertie de Margary (@bertsdem) reported

    @virginmedia I have the 200M fibre package, and my internet is consistently too slow for video calling, and often cuts out altogether. ontop of that my bill has increased to £89 which I did not agree to. Can someone speak to me about this?

  • alper1990 Alper Ahmet (@alper1990) reported

    @virginmedia @Hpsaucy515 Please catch up with your tech team @virginmedia they are saying there is a known issue with Apple and Virgin. Not sure if this is even true, but customer service taking 48 hours to call back and not able to resolve anything.

  • josephflavell Joe (@josephflavell) reported

    @virginmedia why is my internet not working you nonces

  • TheFifthDoctor Brian (@TheFifthDoctor) reported

    @virginmedia Nothing on service status AC, we’ve had a multitude of broadband problems for a whole year now (obviously all the more crucial when you have home schooling and working from home). Getting constant disconnects and slow speeds even after a hub reset

  • FilmdustLtd Filmdust Ltd (@FilmdustLtd) reported

    @virginmedia To be fair it’s a fairly consistent issue daily, with intermittent drop outs. By the time we have made contact with customer services it’s back on. This does seriously hamper our career progress.
