  Snatch (@U2Gorilla) reported 15 seconds ago from Southall, England

  Possibly the worst service Iv ever experience by @virginmedia signed up to a new contract on 4/08/22. Installation engineer was due today, no contact from virgin. called call centre on the phone for 56min multiple transfers asked to redo everything including provide bank details

• 
  The waving mechanical roadgoat™ (@silvergoatish) reported 46 seconds ago from Camden, England

  @virginmedia Duly noted. I'm not likely to be a customer for much longer though, with your general level of service and pricing.

• 
  Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported 1 minute ago from Watford, England

  @virginmedia …and now download speed is 50-70 mbps as opposed to 500 mbps + before the incident (hard wired to router not over Wi-Fi). Please can you look into this?

  BuG$y (@browngaybitch) reported 10 minutes ago from Harrow Weald, England

  Absolutely rubbish customer service from @virginmedia @VirginMedia_TV @VirginMediaCorp waiting for over 2 hours, first call the advisor hung up after I asked to speak to his manager and the second advisor CANNOT give me a reference to the call or let me speak to a manager

  Alistair 🏴‍☠️ Burns (@gashead) reported 11 minutes ago from Hatfield, England

  Used to tell my colleagues on @virginmedia to switch to @BT to overcome reliability issues. Moved house and little choice to pick Virgin. No internet or TV for 7 days, fix due by 1pm today. Queried at 1.30pm and 6.30pm, assured it would be today, told to relax. Frankie says BS.

  Jacob Smith (@JacobWSmith10) reported 12 minutes ago from Camden, England

  @virginmedia @skytv can you please sort out the sky sports app. I cannot login in using my virgin media account. It will not load the password page. I don’t really see why it logs me out periodically in the first place.

  Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported 15 minutes ago from Barnet, England

  @virginmedia Finally sent letter on 28 September and on checking my account realised you’ve got wrong email address attached to complaint file. Funnily enough you have correct email address for sending bills. 3/

  Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported 16 minutes ago from Watford District, England

  Called @virginmedia , now a technician booked. Outages are now common, there’s little communication from @virginmedia on actual status, even the service status page is usually out of date and the call centre staff admitted to me they don’t know what’s going on.

• 
  Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported 30 minutes ago from Barnet, England

  @virginmedia Customer Service is shocking. It’s now almost 6 hours since I asked on WhatsApp for email address to be corrected and I’m still waiting for a response.

  seanhannam (@seanhannam) reported 30 minutes ago from Chesham Bois, England

  @virginmedia We’ve spoken to eight people to try and resolve our internet issues.We’ve ordered new boosters because the new service isn’t compatible with the old ones.We’re a ‘priority customer’ - the new boosters still haven’t arrived…So frustrating. Your service is appalling.

• 
  John carroll (@Johnboy82903002) reported 30 minutes ago from Brentford, England

  @virginmedia I have done, but there is nowhere to report a total outage, despite the message, and no estimated time. I have no landline or broadband, and haven't for 2 days

• 
  seanhannam (@seanhannam) reported 37 minutes ago from Chesham Bois, England

  @virginmedia Is this how you treat your ‘priority customers?’ During a cost of living crisis, we have chosen to stay with you, yet you can’t pull your finger out to look after your customers. I work from home but can’t fully use the service I’m paying for due to your incompetence.

• 
  Dipak (@dip2ooo) reported 40 minutes ago from Harrow Weald, England

  @Gusubeda @virginmedia My broadband is also down HA7 0800 status number keep telling me there's no problem in the area

• 
  Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported 40 minutes ago from Watford District, England

  @virginmedia broadband is up and down again, today in WD17. Are you continuing to experience general service issues ?

• 
  Paul Swain (@PaulswainDJ) reported 42 minutes ago from Kings Langley, England

  @virginmedia This is boring. I’ll reach out to third parties to resolve my account issue.

• 
  ᒍᗩᑎE (@gemmak500) reported 42 minutes ago from Chesham Bois, England

  @virginmedia To be honest you probably can’t, I’ve been this route often previously and nothing changes. Made to jump thru the same basic hoops time & again by staff members who don’t understand the systems, it’s a perpetual, frustrating loop. Still my service is dreadful.

• 
  Harold Wicks (@hw_renewe) reported 44 minutes ago from Hemel Hempstead, England

  @virginmedia “Have you checked for any issues in your area” No I have not checked that link. It is intermittent; one minute it is useable and next the internet service is missing; it is regular occurrence, happens almost daily!?

• 
  ᒍᗩᑎE (@gemmak500) reported 45 minutes ago from Chesham Bois, England

  @virginmedia Yes, it’s showing issues but we are still being treated like this is a new issue with no history. 😩

• 
  seanhannam (@seanhannam) reported 46 minutes ago from Chesham Bois, England

  @virginmedia Why should we call up again for the ninth time? We’re a ‘priority customer.’ You should be calling us and making amends.I’m a consumer tech journalist with 25 years’ experience. Your customer service is the worst I’ve ever encountered. You simply don’t care about your customers.

  Francesco Marchet (@MarchetF) reported 54 minutes ago from Brentford, England

  @virginmedia how do I get in contact with you? My appointments have been cancelled twice now. Such a poor service!

  Tommy Tinkler (@TinklerTommy) reported 9 minutes ago

  @LozzaFox Don't people know you can use google family and virgin media security that can fully control what any child watches and download on a device and restrict how long a device can be used a day. Down to the parents to decide what their child watches. Is Starmer etc so thick with tech

• 
  Man in Black 2125 (@In2125) reported 11 minutes ago

  @virginmedia yeah did that. it says all fine. no issues .... yet a quick scan of social media ( not using virgin broadband obviously, reveals there's an outage in my area .... perhaps you should move your status checker to another provider? It's going to 24 hours apparently. great service

• 
  Laura Rogowski Weldon (@LauraRWeldon) reported 17 minutes ago

  @HarrietHarman A government minister's family members were downloading porn on virgin media and claiming it back off the taxpayer the last time you lot were in power, so I'd pipe down if I were you.

• 
  G99 (@G99____) reported 19 minutes ago

  @BingoBertie @RichardLXXII @virginmedia Yes you clearly have no clue about the wording of the contract. Contracts have a fixed period and if you are smart you have discounts. They however have a fixed period, so if you let them run out the contract continues without them. So what your are suggesting is bad

• 
  Richard Newell (@Solid_S_Boss) reported 20 minutes ago

  @virginmedia sort your stuff out. I'm trying to watch the world cup and the internet keeps going down

  @PaulMcDade7 @virginmedia Seems like the whole of Clackmannanshire is down

• 
  Frazzz (@FrazzzYT) reported 23 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Consistently says "intermittent signal in your area" This has literally been going on for around a week now. And seems to coicide when there is a little tiny bit or rain...

  nick rigby (@pompeyrigs) reported 23 minutes ago

  @virginmedia my broadband speed is running at a fraction of what I’m paying for. Please fix it. Makes working from home impossible
