  Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported 8 minutes ago from Eccleston, England

  @virginmedia I'm not sure this is the 3rd box. It's the one with the router in same room. Re advice remotely got message saying problem could not be solved.

  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 8 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

  CryptoDan2k (@CryptoDan2k) reported 12 minutes ago from Roby, England

  @virginmedia Not really checked today as not working, nans funeral is at 1120. You need to get an engineer to my house next week. I'm paying the bill and not getting the service, not really fair is it.

• 
  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 21 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.

  @virginmedia Can you check that I will be receiving a credit on my next bill as it has been down since Friday afternoon and I don’t think it will be fixed by 12pm today, I think that time will get changed again.

  Lindz Devine (@LindzDDub) reported 30 minutes ago from Wigan, England

  @virginmedia I have to say your Internet connection is ridiculous... for months on end, it's been shocking. I'm sick and tired of resetting my hub, I shouldn't be having this issue. Never had so much issue for the years I've had you and now, the past 6 months, I'm paying monies…

• 
  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 32 minutes ago from St Helens, England

  @virginmedia can someone help me please? I’m about to lose my ****. Never ever known anything like this company. Now telling me lies on WhatsApp. Saying i logged an issue weeks after engineers had already been out to find the fault. Refusing compensation after 4 mths no service.

  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 33 minutes ago from Atherton, England

  @virginmedia my internet has been down since Friday afternoon. I was told it would be fixed in 24 hours, the time has since changed and is currently at 8pm this evening. I work from home so need my internet back up and running before Monday morning. This is disgraceful

  Lindz Devine (@LindzDDub) reported 40 minutes ago from Wigan, England

  @virginmedia @virginhelp I've never had this much issue as I have had today. I'm plugged in on ethernet, I've reset my hub, and checked my area and there is no issue at all. My WiFi is working from my hub but yet its booting me out of Destiny 2 and not just that but the chat parties on PS5 itself

  CryptoDan2k (@CryptoDan2k) reported 44 minutes ago from Roby, England

  @virginmedia You have literally sent me the same link of what I have just screen shot to you to ask me to do the same thing again of the point you have just addressed. 😡😡😡 Fix the bloody problem and get an engineer to my house!

  TheAspiLawStudent #NoReturns (@LawAspi) reported 46 minutes ago from Chorley, England

  @nerdscav @the_hinchy @virginmedia Yes because a WiFi extender will fix the issue when it's the incoming line and not the hardware 😳. The routers gives a 3ping and 1GBps connection. The issue is virgin's crappy network 👍

  🥔 A bean has no name 🥔 (@ylilxanoi) reported 46 minutes ago from Wigan, England

  @virginmedia We have. Multiple times. Your agents don't know how to help. Spoke to 3 different people. I'm getting contant update emails. I don't need to check the service. I know its down. This is beyond ridiculous. I work from home, I can't do my job because of your terrible service.

  Gemma ≅ (@SimpaticoGem) reported 52 minutes ago from Walkden, England

  Tell me why with my @virginmedia wifi and my @O2 phone contract, MY WIFI CUTS OUT CONSTANTLY AND I HAVE NO SOGNAL ANYWHERE I GO?! Thought being a customer of you both was supposed to reap massive benefits for me?

• 
  CryptoDan2k (@CryptoDan2k) reported 57 minutes ago from Roby, England

  @virginmedia Yes, as discussed many a time. Without fail occasion I phone there is a fault in my area and you will not send out a technician. This circle can not seam to be broken. This is why you have failed to get an engineer out to me for months and months.

  Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported 60 minutes ago from Roby, England

  @virginmedia Everything struggles to stay connected to the Internet. Mobiles, laptops, the TV's. I'm not sure if the speed is an issue as I haven't checked it. (I'm not sure how to.)

  ⚒ Sam ⚒ Warrington Hammer ⚒ (@_samhowell) reported 1 hour ago from Warrington, England

  Also @virginmedia need to remind their call centre staff that customers are not idiots; the guy I was talking to had no idea why the link wasnt working so asdvised me to "Try again after 5, if its still not working call back" wonder if he managed clock out bang on 5?

  @virginmedia Hi my virgin tv hasn’t worked for 8 hours I’ve rung the number and it says it’s a fault at your end and you’ve got engineers on it. Can I suggest getting new engineers it’s still not working #refundplease

  mark palmer (@MaverickMark) reported 9 minutes ago

  @virginmedia over a day of outage on TV. Broadband is awful always. Get message of its & issue with time to fix. You’ve now just moved back multiple times. Current one says will be fixed hours ago. No contact. I guess also won’t compensate the hundreds of thousands hiding from

  Phonetix (@RobPhonetix) reported 10 minutes ago

  @virginmedia What about those of us repeatedly requesting our myvirginmedia account be unlocked for the last 6 weeks (& even lodged a complaint about it) who are STILL unable to access our accounts with no explanation?

• 
  Rachel Rosser (@theGROWcompany) reported 14 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Regardless of the actual problem, it seems the company is totally inept. Why was your incoming call message not working, why was the on hold musac playing the same one track for an hour. Why did it take so many hours for any public announcement?

  rebecca ann jarvis (@rebeccaann1989) reported 15 minutes ago

  @O2 hi is there a reason why I keep getting asked to link a virgin media account to use my o2 account when all I want to do is use my rewards towards my data bundle next month, neither of the apps will just let me use my phone number to login and use my rewards

  Stuart Mills (@smevergance) reported 21 minutes ago

  Received letter from @virginmedia saying my bill was going to DOUBLE from June. My services have not changed. An increase of over 100% is just ridiculous! Tried to call VM but after 30 mins of waiting in the call queue I gave up. guessing that lots of people are calling to cancel
