    Guy Rushworth (@dreadedwhisky) reported from York, England

    @EE There’s a distinct possibility that I’ll be switching services in the imminent future. The help from @virginmedia has been laughable. However, having spent £10 to top up the EE SIM card and then finding out I can’t contact your customer support because it costs 25p extra is rich.

    Adam Thompson (@adam7485) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia just tried to call about a problem with my fibre and your automated system told me to make sure it’s plugged in then hung up!! Five minutes wasted and have to go through it all over again. Poor.

    @virginmedia Not good enough! I cannot work from home for 28 days with this service! Why should I pay for this? @VirginMediaCorp @schuelel. Would appreciate someone dealing with my issues.

    Hayley Dumont (@knitting_tsuki) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia I’ve just been on hold for AN HOUR and then you cut me off. This is terrible customer service! How am I supposed to get hold of someone to discuss the problem I’m having with my broadband?

    @novahob @virginmedia No @virginmedia will cross the line 1st then get done for cheating! Worst customer service ever total let down! Never ever go back

  • knitting_tsuki
    Hayley Dumont (@knitting_tsuki) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia The service is slow (even sitting next to router I get <50Mbps) and drops out frequently but irregular intervals & not linked to usage. Has been getting worse since we renewed in June.

  • IamPaulWhiting
    Paul Whiting (@IamPaulWhiting) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia It’s been a struggle to check; with no internet… however it first said that there were no issues and now saying it will be out until 3pm. So; a little concerned it will be off and on all day whilst trying to work. Are you able to confirm?

  • ThatGirIAbii
    Abii🌺 (@ThatGirIAbii) reported from York, England

    @Tomgilly87 Yeah they've officially taken a shit. I would like @virginmedia to write a letter to @Bungie stating that my time out from Comp was their fault and not mine 😭😭

  • Lorimergrant
    Grant Lorimer (@Lorimergrant) reported from York, England

    @yardley24619673 @virginmedia You asked when you posted on social media. I only asked why you carried on if the sales man was so bad. Would you buy a car if the sales man was so bad

  • Gaarmstrong318
    Geoffrey Armstrong (@Gaarmstrong318) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia lovely had a power outage for barely 5 seconds in the Yo26 Acomb Area and lost all services and what makes it worse is I appear to know more than your tech support guys about how my services work.

  • fogey
    Gareth 🇪🇺 (@fogey) reported from York, England

    I’ve been phoning tech help for years about this, and NOT ONCE have they said that my broadband has been throttled due to over use. Up yours, Virgin Media. 🖕

    Adam Wilson (@MadAsAfwog) reported from York, England

    @FreezoneIsm @RyanMoss96 @ligomersall @ChrisJonesInuk @GaryLineker Doesn’t help with the broadcast of programs about life on the dole showing a minority of people playing the system....clearly not working but with sky AND virgin tv....no wonder people can’t understand when they are fed this from the media..

  • richardbridge1
    Richard Bridge (@richardbridge1) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia since I have moved to you 2 months ago, my TV service has been poor and broadband speed not as promised. This is despite a no of lengthy phone calls. Before I issue formal complaint please can I ask you contact me to resolve Thanks cc @MoneyTelegraph

  • PhilBixby
    Phil Bixby (@PhilBixby) reported from York, England

    @jamesnewton_me @LindaHurrell @virginmedia Well, don't feel too bad since you're clearly not alone! If they've not delivered a working service can you switch without penalty?

  • bruce_mcdowell
    Bruce McDowell (@bruce_mcdowell) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia morning, try to help my elderly mum out, WiFi has been off since last Friday, she also out of contract and we can’t get through to any advisor? Help please

  • fogey
    Gareth 🇪🇺 (@fogey) reported from York, England

    20 minutes and counting on hold because I have to be “transferred to the department that can close accounts.” And @virginmedia are “disappointed” that their appalling customer service is one of the reasons I am closing my account.

  • varney1987
    James Varney (@varney1987) reported from York, England

    Spent over an hour trying to work out why I have no internet. @virginmedia app tells me all fine in my area, the my router must be turned off. Yet the lights are on everything is connected to it. Just no internet coming through #WTF #FFS #VirginMedia #IJustWantedToWatchGoodOmens

  • GergoRagalyi
    Gergo Ragalyi (@GergoRagalyi) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia Yeah, it said same to me as well, but the problem not in my house. I said : nobody has internet connection who use virgin media in the street! I asked them!

  • barstep
    Barrie J Stephenson (@barstep) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia It’s now the 9th day since I requested a PAC code from VM. So I filed a complaint, spoke to OFCOM and within an hour I had my PAC code. My faith in VM is zero - my faith in OFCOM is 10 out of 10.

    Gergo Ragalyi (@GergoRagalyi) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia I don't need for this, how i told the problem not in my house. There is the problem, there is the postcode, the rest is your job

    @MichelleBeckett Truly awful. I worked in customer services for a very long time and @virginmedia just needs to get better. It's never about the profits, it's what you're doing for the customer. Put yourself in Michelle's shoes. How would YOU like to be treated like this?! I'm sorry Michelle.

    @virginmedia Thanks for being no help whatsoever? 3 days no internet but as usual you guys don’t seem to care. Shocking service as usual….

  • Samet_UK
    Samet (@Samet_UK) reported

    Wifi has been down since 1 am and there still hasn’t been a satisfactory explanation for the issue. They just share a link for me to check if there’s an outage in the area. It says there is one, but no more information. It’s been nearly 12 hours. @virginmedia

  • ExCathedra44
    JS. (@ExCathedra44) reported

    @virginmedia I have just installed your 360 platform. Got it working but starting this AM the set top boxes ( I have 2)do not switch on automatically and show a No signal sign.Been on to your help line for hours as thought it might be software upgrade. Manual no use.

  • LostPigeonPost
    Flossie Smith (@LostPigeonPost) reported

    @Stsantek @virginmedia I can’t wait to leave Virgin but my husband can’t face the thought of having to ditch his Blue Yonder email address. It took me a week to switch mine and I will never say another good eord about Virgin again. It’s beyond hideous.

    Colin Smith (@smithco76) reported

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK Same experience when my father died in September. Everyone was fantastic. Insurance, banks, utilities. Everything dealt with, no dramas & gave us plenty room & time to get paperwork. Virginmedia were horrible. Forced my mum to take out another contract before they’d close my dads

  • nellynoo72
    Neil (@nellynoo72) reported

    @virginmedia can anyone tell me what the status is of the broadband outrage in CV4 please? All day it's just said there's an issue that your engineers are trying to fix. An ETA would be great
