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

  @VirginMedia Received message. Now not accepting my email address. I have one only. My problem is with the remote control which is activated by pressing 2 buttons when they light up. Have had nothing but trouble with one remote for one TV. Your communication us not helpful.

  Christopher Fox (@ChrisFoxRacing) reported 23 minutes ago from Bolton, England

  @virginmedia Already reported the broadband issues, and it's an issue where estimated fix times keep getting pushed back. With regards to mobile issues, this has been around the same length of time. The only way I've been able to get any connection at all is by switching to 3G

  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 28 minutes ago from St Helens, England

  @virginmedia are an absolute joke. Was told to call back at half 6 and guess what? They’re shut! And again, no engineer visit. Getting cancelled 1st thing in the morning. Over a month of total loss of service, piss take. #avoid

  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.

  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 34 minutes ago from St Helens, England

  @virginmedia I reported a total loss of service on 31/8. It was finally fixed this morning. After no shows, lies and weeks between visits. They have not even offered to cover the cost of my last 3 dd’s which I wish I hadn’t paid as I had no service whatsoever

  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 37 minutes ago from Atherton, England

  @virginmedia Could the problems in the area have caused damage to the equipment? As it was working fine before. Do I get compensation for all this time as the earliest appointment is Friday 14th?

  @Virgin @virginmedia #virginmediadown #VirginMedia Imagine paying £52 a month for Internet to be down for 5 days. We work from home. I've used all my 4g, had to buy more to do my job yet when you call up they say it'll be fixed by.. and keeps being postponeded. Fix it Virgin.

  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 39 minutes ago from St Helens, England

  @virginmedia Nobody can help me, they just keep asking for patience. They’ve had since august to fix it. It’s unacceptable.

• 
  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 39 minutes ago from St Helens, England

  @virginmedia Yes, this has been going on now for months. Was just on to your team to cancel, they hung up on me. I’ve never known a more woeful service. They are quick enough to take payment every month for a service I’m not getting.

  Colette Ellison (@colette2511) reported 43 minutes ago from Warrington, England

  @virginmedia No not going through it it’s too long and I don’t have time. Just wanted to everyone know that vm is a bad company and are robbing gets. Trading standards have been told and I’m 💯 % sure that there’s thousands of people doing the same

  @virginmedia Hi, I'm tweeting from the device I'm having connectivity and signal issues with, I've looked on the website and it's not stating if you're having network issues or not.

• 
  kevin.james (@pillbo01) reported 49 minutes ago from Bolton, England

  @virginmedia No as you person on 150 said you do not have a customer service that I could talk too. Your engineer said it was a fault at the box in street so I don’t know when it is fixed. But it’s not improve in the last month

• 
  Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported 51 minutes ago from Westhoughton, England

  @virginmedia I seem to be the first one to report them, still saying intermittent problems in my area. Can't get to speak to anyone on phone, I rely on the Internet.

  John Kelly (@John_Kelly17) reported 59 minutes ago from St Helens, England

  @CruisingTheCut I’ve had very few issues with virgin media - depends if you need TV though. Otherwise I’ve heard very good things about over the air using the three network or EE.

  @virginmedia All internet is down, wireless and wired; the hub light is white and it’s a Hub 3.0.

  @virginmedia You should be keeping an eye out for this sort of criminal activity, creates profiles for most large UK companies so they can reply to any complaints and get the customer to download software so they can compensation…and rob them. Report them to X

  Urban Groove (@Urban__Groove) reported 3 minutes ago

  @virginmedia So you bombarded me with phone calls to upgrade till i had to admit defeat, you told me i have free nextflix premium for a whole year, so i register a netflix account and now your asking me to pay £15.00 to use this service? what an absolute rip off😡 NOT HAPPY!

• 
  David Whiteside (@yardley_canary) reported 6 minutes ago

  @virginmedia are in top 3 worst companies I've ever had the misfortune to deal with. They may even be top. Rude, expensive, evasive, and unreliable. What started as a simple investigation into switching for cost reasons has now made me resolute in my decision! Disgusting!

  @virginmedia Can you advise on what's happening with services in B30 please?Broadband has gone down.

  @virginmedia It won’t be paid you have broken your side of the contract and not provided the service I agreeed to there will be nothing paid I’ll see you in court

• 
  Katie Stevenson (@GlitteringAngel) reported 12 minutes ago

  Tell me, @virginmedia, how many people do I need to speak to before you make me (a longstanding customer) feel as valued as a NEW customer!? Coming to the end of contract and doing the same merry dance thatbwe always do, trying to get a decent deal!

  @orange 151.217.0.0/16 AS62016 AS198198 AS42987 AS22879 AS199524 AS62016: Virgin Media 🇬🇧 AS198198: Telefonica Global Solutions 🇪🇸 AS42987: Virgin Media 🇬🇧 AS22879: Sirus, Inc 🇺🇸 AS199524: Gcore 🇳🇱 Location is Chicago. However, this case is slightly different. 151.217.0.0/16 is a "bogon", which means the network is not assigned to anyone at this time (and so nobody should be using it). After the first announcement, new (presumably fake) carriers were inserted into the BGP path as a decoy. The general modus operandi suggests that this is the same gang in action

  Net Zero Watch (@NetZeroWatch) reported 22 minutes ago

  Mobile network operators have warned they could be forced to ration phone signal access to combat soaring energy prices triggered by the war in Iran. In a stark warning to the Government, telecoms giants including VodafoneThree, Virgin Media O2 and EE said they were drawing up emergency contingency plans after being excluded from Rachel Reeves’s energy support scheme. More Net Zero issues for consumers. #CostOfNetZero
