  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 2 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 The nightmare continues!!! Buffering is now a way of life for us. As is watching any programme on a streaming service in short two minute bites!

  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 16 minutes ago from St Helens, England

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

• 
  Gary Kilroy (@Gary_Kilroy) reported 19 minutes ago from Liverpool, England

  Having the choice of the awful customer service of @virginmedia or the @bt_uk network which in my area might as well be two tin cans tied together with string is great!

  @virginmedia Issues with all VM services in my area says expected fix by 4:40pm today.

  @virginmedia whys your Internet ****?? Never works when I want it to

• 
  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 27 minutes ago from St Helens, England

  @virginmedia 3 x engineer visits, each time telling me there’s a blockage. Why does nobody fix it? I can’t even get through to cancel my services and get a refund for the direct debits I’ve paid when I’ve had zero service.

  @virginmedia Just managed to get hold of someone, and apparently after over 10 years of no problems I now need WiFi boosters at an extra cost to myself all of a sudden, they couldn't tell me why just trying to squeeze more money out of me

  Thomas Evans (@92Tevs) reported 37 minutes ago from Liverpool, England

  @virginmedia do you want the prize for the shittiest broadband ever or would you like to fix my internet service?

• 
  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 38 minutes ago from St Helens, England

  @jenwahkiddles @virginmedia Pity they didn’t do it for us, had no tv or broadband for over 3 months and can’t even get the compensation they owe us, plus the direct debits they took knowing we had total loss of service. Shambolic company.

• 
  Rob (@Robertlfc_) reported 47 minutes ago from Liverpool, England

  Sort your awful Wi-Fi out @virginmedia

• 
  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 49 minutes ago from Atherton, England

  @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.

  Jamie McLoughlin (@jmcloughlin) reported 49 minutes ago from Liverpool, England

  Anyone having @virginmedia issues in Liverpool area? Our TV has been showing static for the past half hour.

• 
  Anne McCormack (@1AnneMcCormack) reported 55 minutes ago from Billinge Chapel End, England

  @virginmedia I tell them to ring 999 or 0151 709 6010 if they want to report a crime. They hang up but they sound South Asian and their English is poor. I worry about other oaps being conned. Good luck chasing them.

  John Kelly (@John_Kelly17) reported 57 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.

• 
  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 58 minutes ago from St Helens, England

  @virginmedia All the while taking my direct debit payments for a service I am not getting

• 
  Mark Langshaw (@MarkLangshaw) reported 58 minutes ago from Liverpool, England

  @virginmedia Hello, my broadband was supposed to be installed on 6th Sept but your engineer only did half a job and ****** off. When I call up to find out when you're coming back to finish my installation, I can't get a straight answer and nobody calls me back! Shite service!

  @virginmedia - So call customer service. 20 minutes on hold. Finally talk to a human. - Apparently all my renewal offers have expired (they are still showing in the app) - Would I like to renew at 3x the price I am paying.? NO

• 
  Berk (@trapdoor456) reported 6 minutes ago

  Switching from @virginmedia today, going for just broadband with YouFibre & saving £70 a month for a speed more than 3x what Virgin wanted £10 a month more for. Hoping it does what it says, but Virgin service & Customer Service have been diabolical this year. Anyone use YouFibre?

  @nickncs_cP @zexyvfx @Acttx I’m virgin media aswell it’s not a virgin media problem

• 
  John (@reversebrexit22) reported 9 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I have issues with my hub dropping out. I’ve done all of the checks and waited on the chat for 20 mins for a “customer support “ individual to drop off after 5 minutes because I didn’t respond with 10 seconds of him asking a question. I have screen shots as proof

• 
  Moots (@JJMootts) reported 14 minutes ago

  I swear @virginmedia have to be the most frustrating company to deal with ever!! Absolutely useless customer service.

• 
  Asha rollawin (@quizrollawin) reported 15 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I'm a former customer and want to make a complaint but this isn't possible online without having a VM account - so how can people complain as former customers who are owed money?

• 
  mike duncan (@mikedun95307737) reported 20 minutes ago

  @virginmedia You really need to up your game virtual chat about as much use as a chocolate ashtray. You promise something in the Contract and not deliver it. No am not the account holder but money comes from my account. Get your act in order because at the moment it is crap

• 
  Wistern1337 (@wistern1337) reported 21 minutes ago

  Sickening it's still hard for customers leave your service despite being fined by the UK government £28m I moved away from your service in March to a new provider. I have been charged over £300 for unused services. Refund refused. Never sign up to ripoff Virgin! @virginmedia

  Rachel (@NitonCalling) reported 22 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Is there an issue with your email servers? I’m getting the odd few emails but know I’ve not received others and not showing on webmail either

  Mark 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@MrMarkW67) reported 25 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I’m really struggling with my Wi-Fi coverage at home. I have a security camera mounted right above my window, but it constantly drops connection due to weak signal. To make matters worse, I get virtually no Wi-Fi signal at all when I am sitting in my back garden, which is really frustrating. Given how close these areas are to the house, I shouldn't be losing connection like this. Could someone please check my Hub settings/signal or advise on getting Wi-Fi Pods to fix these dead zones? Thanks,
