  Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported 3 minutes ago from Barnet, England

  @virginmedia @mundaytom Not true. No response to complaint letter sent August and when we’ve rung “manager will call you in 3-5 days”. Been told that 3 times. Not one callback. Shambles.

  John T Davies 💙🇺🇦💛 (@jtdavies) reported 4 minutes ago from Ealing, England

  @virginmedia We had issues last month, a nice engineer came (Mohamed) and said it was a local problem. I reported it on the phone again on Tuesday (Aqeelah), she said there are local problems (again). I fed up wit this, it’s been a week of impossible internet, day and night!

  @virginmedia I'd just like to cancel! Nothing personal! But stumbling blocks are being put up and it is tiresome.

  Mansukh (@mmpa4) reported 9 minutes ago from Watford, England

  @virginmedia Been a long term customer of Virginmedia and recently renewed contract along with O2 mobile but customer services has gone downhill. Having issues with Wi-Fi,phoned again today and was told technical support will call me by 1:30pm, but no one has bothered.

  @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.

  maureen robert (@morish1) reported 15 minutes 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!!!

  Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Andrew007Uk) reported 20 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.

  @Charlie_A_Gee @virginmedia They don’t give a damn, they’re virtually a monopoly, Ditch them and go to sky.

  @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.

• 
  Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported 32 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.

  Ella A Cutler (@angelstorm13) reported 32 minutes ago from Hatfield, England

  Virgin WiFi is up and down all the time, but now it's really down and not working. Can't even turn on my Alexa smart lights so stuck in the dark and soon landlines will be WiFi so that won't work either. @virginmedia #noservice

  John Sanderson (@SanderjoJohn) reported 35 minutes ago from Barnet, England

  @MartinSLewis @bbc5live Had replacement windows from a local company 18 months ago and they were excellent but I will tell you the worst people I have ever dealt with - Virgin Media, even worse than British Gas used to be.

  Bhaven Dusara (@Fatty_Koo91) reported 36 minutes ago from Harrow Weald, England

  How can it be called Virgin Media when it goes down so much??? #VirginMediaDown

• 
  Jonny Paul (@StrummerJonny) reported 39 minutes ago from Barnet, England

  @virginmedia is there any point, why not just give up? #virginbroadband down again, x4/2 days and at least once a month you are guaranteed #broadband #outage

  @SilentMugger @virginmedia It's been over 24 hours now and I've now been told it will be 10am tomorrow. I'm in North London, not in the wilderness. Its shocking that there's no Internet in the city. Maybe there service is getting worse.

  Francesco Marchet (@MarchetF) reported 50 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!

• 
  Grant Osborn (@Gosbo68) reported 52 minutes ago from Northaw and Cuffley, England

  @virginmedia Wi-Fi still down.

• 
  ᒍᗩᑎE (@gemmak500) reported 56 minutes ago from Chesham Bois, England

  @virginmedia There is no link. No one appears to know what’s going on and there is no ownership or continuity of help. As the paying customer we are supposed to just wait, lose business and accept the situation.

• 
  Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported 57 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/

  Dr Elaine Rust (@elainerust) reported 2 minutes ago

  @virginmedia despite your £28 million fine for preventing the switching process, I find you are doing this to me. So much for resolving the issues and reviewing your processes. You’ve cancelled my request TWICE. This has to stop. @Ofcom

• 
  Simone-Lee Deal (@StiffNips2) reported 10 minutes ago

  @ChrisCorney1 Had that with my 91 yr old mum, she was charged 2x the going rate by Virgin, had dementia and obvs couldn't remember what her password was, so Virgin wouldn't let her cancel. I got there in the end, but @virginmedia are bastards

  Radar 🚨 (@RadarHits) reported 12 minutes ago

  🚨 JUST IN: Ofcom fines Virgin Media a record £28m for deliberately mishandling millions of customer calls and preventing contract cancellations between 2022 and 2024 through tactics including call-dropping and unnecessary transfers.

• 
  Epicurean Cat (@EpicureanCat) reported 13 minutes ago

  @premnsikka I had this exact experience with Virgin media, including failure to cancel a direct debit, two payments taken after cancellation, then a complete runaround through call centres with less than basic English spoken in an attempt to get a refund. I would never use @virginmedia.

  Sinai Fleary 🇬🇩🇻🇨 (@S_Fleary1) reported 17 minutes ago

  I have literally just left @virginmedia because of their poor service, constant internet outages and high bills. Let me know if we can claim compensation.

  Gothguy (@GothGuyGamer) reported 17 minutes ago

  @botbusta999 @virginmedia @EE when you join EE for their "internet", you'll be complaining you're being scammed, fact is aside from Virgin, noone can come close to the speeds they provide. Dont get me wrong, im not praising Virgin, their customer service is AIDS
