    @virginmedia I am tearing my hair out with your customer service and awful WiFi. I have tried and tried to get it resolved via customer services but to no avail. Last night I was again promised a call back to resolve the issue and again no call back was received. Please sort this

  • Virgin Media Outage in Bristol, England (26)Chris Rose (@chrisandobe) reported fromKingswood, England

    @virginmedia Ok, I hope roaming charges won't be back. When I get the chance to go abroad it's good to know I can use Google maps, call home and get help if I need something without the worry of expensive charges.

  • Virgin Media Outage in Bristol, England (27)Natalie Timmons (@metallicnat) reported fromBristol, England

    @virginmedia We have resolved it by turning the whole lot off and then on again and that seems to have fixed the issue #ClassicTechSupportAdvice

    @virginmedia my connection is intolerably slow, around 1mbps, but the test on your website says there are no faults. Video is awful.

    @virginmedia currently been on hold for 40 minutes trying to resolve a problem that you created, this is not customer service!

  • Virgin Media Outage in Bristol, England (37)Dave Griffiths (@griffdh) reported fromClevedon, England

    @sarahmiles82 @virginmedia Agreed. Never had a problem with them before. But when we moved last October the problems started, u just couldn't make it up. U can't ring them as they don't understand what tour telling them and they don't respond to their own online complaints system. #*****

    Virgin media package price for new customers £39Price for me as a loyal customer of 11 years £64Absolutely disgusting, sort it out @virginmedia

  • Virgin Media Outage in Bristol, England (40)Tom (@crackleholler) reported fromBristol, England

    @BethMotherwell @virginmedia I’d recommend the latter. If this is the case when you’re a prospective customer, think of when they’ve already got your money and you’re in contract.

  • Virgin Media Outage in Bristol, England (41)David Rankin (@mrdrankin) reported fromKingswood, England

    I'd like to thank @virginmedia. The fact that your new VO service is absolutely shocking, not user friendly and painfully slow, has luckily stopped me spending the £12.99 that my wife wanted to spend on "The Star is Born" PHEW!!!!!! Every cloud and all that.
