  @virginmedia Yes at £37 when as a new customer I could get it for £25. I am happy to stick at the £32 but you are not willing to match.

  @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 Once again, your status checker says there’s nothing wrong but I have just called the number provided and was told by an automated messaging say your engineers are working to resolve a very complex issue. This is the second time in less than a month.

  Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported 19 minutes ago from Barnet, England

  @virginmedia Of course I have. My email is correct on online account. I get email bills correctly. But my complaint file has an extra character to email address and so I’ve never received acknowledgment of my complaint.

  @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.

  @virginmedia is everything ok with the network today? Router has been flashing red on and off all morning, really intermittent connection however nothing shown on the service checker. Done the usual unplugging of the router, checked cables etc however still flashing red, then…

  @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

  Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported 28 minutes ago from Barnet, England

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

  Snatch (@U2Gorilla) reported 30 minutes 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

• 
  Francesco Marchet (@MarchetF) reported 35 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!

• 
  Sid M (@smahes4) reported 43 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

  Alistair 🏴‍☠️ Burns (@gashead) reported 43 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.

  Oliver Fatyol (@IstvanOFatyol) reported 44 minutes ago from Ealing, England

  @virginmedia Since w/c 22Aug my wife and I continuously keep checking the service status which gets updated and deadline pushed back. Nobody with virgin has broadband or TV for over 3 weeks now without explanation or a decent update

  TinaReadingEditor (@TinaReading) reported 45 minutes ago from Amersham, England

  @virginmedia No Internet for 48 hrs and can't work, will you be crediting customers for lack of service?

• 
  Paul Simmonds (@paulusthegrey) reported 46 minutes ago from Borehamwood, England

  @virginmedia I think I may have an idea what’s happened to your service in #borehamwood It looks like a kerbside box has been totalled by a drunk driver.

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

• 
  David Renton (@david_renty) reported 54 minutes ago from Barnet, England

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

  @virginmedia All I am getting is a bot replying to check the issue in the area At least 16 household know there is an ongoing issue for months Please resolve this rather than with fobbing us off with direction to plug and unplug etc

• 
  Yasmin alibhai-brown (@y_alibhai) reported 4 minutes ago

  Calling @virginmedia my email system has been 'locked' for five days now. I can't work without access to them . Two calls to you, each took one and a half hour to get through. Promises were made. Not kept. Disgraceful customer care.

• 
  Legal Eagle. (@ACLegalServices) reported 4 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I am seriously thinking of leaving Virgin after 25 years or so as you are about to double my bill to £62.00 a month for speeds of 120mbps. Any recommendations to replace them with a reliable service, that I have had with Virgin. Difficult to talk to them on phone

• 
  Melvin Jose (@Melvinjose22321) reported 5 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I have been facing intermittent broadband issues from almost a month and all you do is keep pushing resolution date by a week once that has passed. This the fifth time you are pushing the resolution timeframe. When can you get this resolved?

  Ali@Makely (@MakelyStudio) reported 7 minutes ago

  10+ years. 50M+ users. £11M+ revenue impact. Mercedes. Citibank. Sky. Virgin Media. NatWest. Here's what I learned: Bad product flows can cost thousands, or even millions, in lost revenue. Regardless of company size. What kills conversions in big-name products does the same for startups: - Onboarding that loses people in the first 60 secs - Pricing pages that confuse instead of convert - Sign-up flows that cause decision fatigue I’ve seen that when you fix these - you get more from the traffic you already have. Now I build those same systems for funded startups - so they keep the users they've already paid to get.

  @virginmedia shocking... WiFi just drops off when it feels like it. No notice, nothing. Can you fix up please, we pay too much 😩

  How virgin media buyers become Chad scalers > Change budgets every single day > Tinker with the ad account when everyone says set it and forget it > Obsess over account structure > Find the winning campaigns and double the budget > Wait 3-4 days, and if it holds, double it again > Watch the virgin media buyer win > Get called a virgin media buyer for it > Keep changing budgets every day anyway > Keep doubling winners and killing nothing on a single bad day > Watch the virgin media buyer win again

  IFB Media (@IFBMedia) reported 20 minutes ago

  This is the problem LOI TV and Virgin Media can’t solve on their own. Both have done more for this league in a few years than RTÉ managed in decades. Let that sit for a second. A streaming service and a commercial broadcaster have outworked the national broadcaster on its own game. RTÉ isn’t short on money. It’s short on will. Every household in this country funds that broadcaster through the licence fee. League of Ireland clubs are part of that country too. Yet the domestic game still gets treated like an inconvenience, squeezed out whenever something bigger comes along… That’s not neutrality. That’s a broadcaster showing you exactly where its priorities sit. And it ain’t with covering our Domestic Football teams irrespective of whether it’s home, abroad or both. Other platforms shouldn’t be doing RTÉ’s job for it. They shouldn’t have to. A national broadcaster shows up for the national game. Consistently. Not when it suits the schedule. Until RTÉ treats League of Ireland like it matters, everyone else will keep doing the job it was funded to do. That’s not a compliment to the others. It’s an indictment of RTÉ. This is exactly why Irish football needs a genuine TV deal, not scraps of coverage from whoever happens to show up. The prize money isn’t there. The funding model is fragile. A real broadcast deal is how you finally finance this league properly. Until that exists, moments like this keep repeating.

  @virginmedia Installed 360. What genius decided all the channels I'm not subscribed to will appear as blank screens when I'm channel hopping and how do I make it stop? If that's a deliberate design feature it's awful.
