    @virginmedia @1862_TwoPies Cut and paste Cut and paste Cut and paste That is NOT customer service even if you fake it to be

  • fos100 Richard Foster (@fos100) reported from New Longton, England

    Since I moved, the @virginmedia connection has been terrible. I’ve had an engineer out, had a booster put on, been told on numerous occasions to reboot the hub. This shouldn’t be needed. Their website is horrendous to use and largely involves linking to help guides 1/?

  • Tiiredbunny Bunny 💙 (@Tiiredbunny) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia I will leave it open but nothing popped up earlier should I sign in?

  • Madhornet73 Lee Thomas (@Madhornet73) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia The red button is not working again for the football

  • NeckSausage NeckSausage (@NeckSausage) reported from Tarleton, England

    @virginmedia really poor coverage here PR4 6, is there a mast problem?

  • BooCavapoo BooCavapoo 🐶 (@BooCavapoo) reported from Penwortham, England

    @virginmedia No, that's not possible as the yoga device does not have wired port. The WiFi just needs sorting out. Its been terrible for weeks @virginmedia

  • BeanBolt BeanBolt (@BeanBolt) reported from Southport, England

    @virginmedia It says no issue in the area, then when I click "still having issues" the local scan shows intermittent outages in the area, been like this for 24hrs+

  • BooCavapoo BooCavapoo 🐶 (@BooCavapoo) reported from Penwortham, England

    @virginmedia please sort out the issues with the WiFi, Internet, broadband or whatever the term us these days. It is constantly slow or not working. Having to use mobile data is not an effective substitute for the service I am paying for.

  • LIVEINBLACKPOOL Peter Ian Mowbray RODP💙 (@LIVEINBLACKPOOL) reported from Blackpool, England

    @AntStephen @VirginMediaCorp @virginmedia Thank you 🙏 but I am stuffed hoping they fix it soon

  • ChrisPWebb Chris Webb (@ChrisPWebb) reported from Blackpool, England

    Just as the main event starts, my @virginmedia internet goes down for the 10th time this week 🤬 #WarringtonLopez

  • sean_wilson87 Sean Wilson (@sean_wilson87) reported from South Shore, England

    Once again @virginmedia your internet connection drops as soon as we get bad weather. Lost count of the amount of times this has happened, and with the amount of money I pay you nothing happens to stop this happening again. Shocking service. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

  • LIVEINBLACKPOOL Peter Ian Mowbray RODP💙 (@LIVEINBLACKPOOL) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia It’s been a tricky few days as I have been trying to run my media company. I phoned Virgin Media business both times was told it’s an outage. It seems to be working better than ever now, but hoping no more disruptions. Thank you for making contact with me

  • sean_wilson87 Sean Wilson (@sean_wilson87) reported from South Shore, England

    Once again @virginmedia internet down as soon as we get rain in our area. I need to keep a tally chart with how many times this has happened. Complete and utter shambles

  • franners82 frances whitehead (@franners82) reported from Garstang, England

    @virginmedia can you help me verify my account - not receiving any emails…

  • fos100 Richard Foster (@fos100) reported from New Longton, England

    Hi @virginmedia, I’m trying to order some pods to sort out my truly shocking Wi-Fi, but can’t work out how to do so. Please could you help me?

  • TheRealRagtag Stephen Murtagh (@TheRealRagtag) reported from Penwortham, England

    Not very often I say good things about @virginmedia but todays service was excellent. Peter sorted out Wi-fi problem, wavered the set up fee, and arranged a new hub after lots of line tests. Thank you. (But will have no service for 6 days in all.🙄 Refund?)

  • Adzcantsing 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.

  • Madhornet73 Lee Thomas (@Madhornet73) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia Why is the red button not working on SkySports

  • fos100 Richard Foster (@fos100) reported from New Longton, England

    @virginmedia That just wants me to upgrade my package; I just want to order the pods. Why is the website so poor?

  • fos100 Richard Foster (@fos100) reported from New Longton, England

    @virginmedia It’s an ongoing issue and an engineer is due out on Thursday but today the internet decided it didn’t want to work on my laptop

  • andyl1981 Andrew Leitch (@andyl1981) reported

    Another 45 minutes of my life gone to @virginmedia Absolute shambles. Direct debit cancelled as I have tried three times to cancel the contract. Unacceptable.

  • deneoctober でね⚡️o̶c̶t̶o̶b̶e̶r̶ 🇺🇦 (fictional writer) (@deneoctober) reported

    @virginmedia I used this before and your review panel found that since you started work on a Friday and finished it by Monday, only two working days had been affected, so not a bean back (and nearly 4 days of no service!).

  • RebelForest1 Rebel Forest (Rebecca Woods) (@RebelForest1) reported

    @virginmedia I wasn't reaching out to you, just letting people know how you threatened me with court action via text message for return of your receiving equipment, when I still had three weeks of my contract to run. Piss poor by any measure and very aggressive. People need to be aware.

  • isaacellard_ Isaac (@isaacellard_) reported

    @virginmedia Okay, I will reply back to this if they can't help. Thanks

  • muneeba05 Muneeba (@muneeba05) reported

    @virginmedia 3rd time on hold after being cut off twice before after waiting an hour on the phone. What is this service???

  • samstevens6268 sam stevens (@samstevens6268) reported

    @virginmedia I had a WiFi installation today - the engineer wasn’t able to install and has left without any instructions - I have now been on support call for 30 mins trying to get WiFi - can someone help

  • gavhossack Gav Hossack (@gavhossack) reported

    @virginmedia Check my account, you will see I have had an engineer out recently. I am on the M500 package and it is still slow and often doesn’t work at all

  • AlanKayWrestler Alan Kay (@AlanKayWrestler) reported

    @virginmedia Trying to cancel my contract as your retention offers are horrendous. Finally got through and managed to cancel the contract in the end!

  • baxygringelvar Adam Brown (@baxygringelvar) reported

    @virginmedia It would take the threat to my first born to make me engage with your teams ,of any description ,ever again .awful awful service ...try employing more staff.they are not higher tsb expected call volumes.

  • jalexg_ Jack G (@jalexg_) reported

    @virginmedia The wifi was doing fine before there was a reported outage in our area. Since then we haven't moved anything other than to reboot the hub, which hasn't helped. The network isn't broadcasting at all from the router, even when we're right next to it
