  maureen robert (@morish1) reported 32 seconds ago from Hillingdon, England

  @virginmedia This is false advertising. My broadband goes off more than it’s on and then it is so slow. I have lost count on the times I have called the help line. I have rebooted routinely, it works for a while then off again. I have had enough now as enough is enough!!!

  John carroll (@Johnboy82903002) reported 1 minute ago from Brentford, England

  @virginmedia Good morning, This is the 3rd day with no broadband. You have conflicting messages as to whether there is an issue or not, and whether it has been fixed or not. I have been unable to speak to anyone or log a call out. Can someone please help

  Paul Swain (@PaulswainDJ) reported 3 minutes ago from Kings Langley, England

  @virginmedia I’ve given up for tonight. I’m struggling to deal with a company that has lied on record and taken money wrongfully out of my account. @MartinSLewis help!

  @virginmedia Not ******* good enough ,you charge me the earth promising the best Gig 1 and I have had problems ever since taking that upgrade ,

  Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported 12 minutes ago from Ealing, England

  @virginmedia Yep, not good enough. What’s the issue? Why does it keep happening and what are you doing about it? And how are you compensating customers?

  @virginmedia I don’t doubt it will be fixed eventually but there have been significant issues here for months & I need more info than this. The message on your link hasn’t been updated since PRIOR to being told it was fixed. When reported this morning it was treated with no history.

  @virginmedialife @virginmedia The worst service from any company I have ever used. I would like to be removed from your business accounts.

  Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported 23 minutes ago from Croxley Green, England

  @virginmedia An engineer came today. Issue resolved. If you remember I told you that it was highly probable that work being performed at a cabinet on our street may have resulted in our issue. I also told your telephone support team. That’s exactly what had happened. Appalling service.

  Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported 30 minutes ago from Ealing, England

  @virginmedia Thanks, John. No they didn’t confirm. All they said was that the issue *might* be fixed by August 2nd, which as you can imagine is far from ideal. Meanwhile, I’m also being charged a full month despite not having a reliable connection for over a week.

  The waving mechanical roadgoat™ (@silvergoatish) reported 36 minutes 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.

  @virginmedia Also raised it in web complaint form which didn’t work. Web complaint form hasn’t worked for 2 months. Then sent letter and still no response. 2/

  Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Andrew007Uk) reported 45 minutes ago from London Colney, England

  @virginmedia Thanks for trying. Three Exec Dept people in the last 10 days promised to call me back after initial calls - none have. I have put it all in an e-mail against what I believe is my reference number. I want the mobile internet service you've arranged to work.

  Steve Cavinder (@StephenCavinder) reported 45 minutes ago from Bricket Wood, England

  @virginmedia do you think it’s acceptable for a customer to be waiting for more than 20 minutes (and still waiting) for one of your agents to answer the phone? #justasking

  Drew Salisbury (@DrewSalisbury5) reported 50 minutes ago from Barnet, England

  [1] @virginmedia I have not had access to WiFi for a couple of days now. I have checked the cables, rebooted the Hub and run the final diagnostic tests several times. Still nothing. On the one hand, your system tells me that there is a wider broadband issue in the area and […]

  Sid M (@smahes4) reported 55 minutes ago from Chesham Bois, England

  @virginmedia The reason given to us that you don’t want to put extra 10mtr cable to service 3 properties. That’s a shame on you and a classic lie that you say on your advert regarding coverage @richardbranson @Ofcom

  jeanne smith (@jeannesmith1) reported 55 minutes ago from Hillingdon, England

  @virginmedia will lose my money as a loyal customer of 20 years standing, by slapping a 120% rise on my next contract due to start in November! Who else has seen such a massive percentage rise?

• 
  Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported 55 minutes ago from Barnet, England

  @virginmedia Yes, we’ve all reported it and service update says fix by 4pm today. Thanks.

  @SilentMugger @virginmedia Yes I'm shocked too, didn't think it would be this long & they best fix it as I can't work and I'm using all my mobile data to try and contact them. Really bad service.

  @biggle1908 @SBarrettBar @tescomobile Indian “customer service” centres in the case of Virgin Media, utter and complete shambles.

  Irate_Jobbie (@Irate_Jobbie) reported 9 minutes ago

  @AwTroon Many, many years ago, I called virgin media to tell them I was leaving. They asked why, I said you don't offer value for money anymore. Sorry you're leaving but that is the best price, you already have. It was expensive. No problem, bye now. Next day, virgin cold calls me. Asks me to confirm who I am. I said no, you are calling me, you should know. Guy was annoyed as he was phoning to offer me a better deal. I said fine, I'll call the same retentions team I called yesterday to leave and I'll know it's actually virgin. He got angry, said they can't offer discounts, only he could and if I didn't confirm my details, he couldn't give me the offer. I just told him I could no longer do business with virgin due to such poor security procedures. He seemed very angry about the fact I wasn't willing to give personal identifiable information to a stranger cold calling me. Never paid them a penny again.

  Virgin media charging a loyal customer of 20 years £114 per month is a little bit of a joke when we have a speed test of 63 and new customers get 500 …. Sort it out virgin media

  Jenny Do Nascimento (@jdonascimento) reported 11 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I moved house on August 28th and Virgin has been unable to connect my internet service. It's terrible service; I've wasted hours talking to them with no results. #Sutton #England #SOS

  @LeilaniDowding @EE No idea Leilani. My elderly mother in law had issues last month with her virgin media line. It was down for 4 days, luckily she only lives around the corner.

  Expanse Consulting Ltd (@ExpanseCon) reported 18 minutes ago

  @ulickdcox @VodafoneIreland Not a vodafone issue. Looks like a core switch failure, optical cross-connect fault or other fault inside one of the central carrier-neutral hubs. It has dropped interconnection across multiple fixed ISPs (Virgin Media, Eir, Siro, NBI) simultaneously.

  @MelJanie @virginmedia I’ve never had a problem that’s not been sorted quickly and conveniently.
