  Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported 9 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.

  maureen robert (@morish1) reported 13 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!!!

  Snatch (@U2Gorilla) reported 15 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

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

  Spencer Millbery (@SMillbery) reported 18 minutes ago from Harrow Weald, England

  @virginmedia Yes, I’ve done all these. Very frustrating as I only had a new super hub and cabling to house installed 2 weeks ago. Never had such intermittent service in 20 years of using virgin.

  Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported 19 minutes ago from Ealing, England

  @virginmedia I’m afraid not. I did ask to speak to a supervisor/manager and they said they would submit this request. My question is: is there actually a fault or is this an ongoing issue? It seems to be the latter, tbh.

  Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported 20 minutes ago from Barnet, England

  @rachel_uk_ @virginmedia Feel your frustration. 2 promised callbacks never happened,web complaint form doesn’t work. No email address for complaints. Sent letter of complaint 28/09z No response despite website saying I’d get one within 48 hours. Virgin do not care about customers.

  Ella A Cutler (@angelstorm13) reported 26 minutes ago from Welwyn Hatfield, England

  Yet again dispicable lack of customer service from #virginmedia for the 7+ hr outage. Not even one tweet. Your customer service dept needs sacking! How can you run a company like this and charge us so much! @virginmedia #virginmediadown

  Michael Butler (@Michael73942063) reported 27 minutes ago from Welwyn Garden City, England

  @virginmedia @LutzSchueler please help me here i am an O2 monthly paying customer , I’ve had a virgin email address for over 23 years and they just closed it no notice , or warnings and your team hides behind a policy that didn’t exist when i first got my virgin email address

  @virginmedia any idea why services are down across the board in WD23 postcode area?

  seanhannam (@seanhannam) reported 28 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.

  Niro Knox (@niroknox) reported 29 minutes ago from Potters Bar, England

  @richardbranson virgin media U.K. business service is appalling , customer service and tech support are lying, promising callbacks just to get you off the line, 3 weeks no service my business is chaos, my SLA is 12 hours yet no one to talk to fault: F010324227 No one is helping

  Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported 31 minutes ago from Barnet, England

  @virginmedia @dpjohnston10 Complaints procedure is non existent. If you phone, promised call back never happens, webform complaint doesn’t work and hasn’t since at least 28/09. Sent letter 3 wks ago - no response, despite website saying response within 48 hours. Ombudsman here we come.

  @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.

  Alistair 🏴‍☠️ Burns (@gashead) reported 40 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.

  Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported 42 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.

  @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.

• 
  Ella A Cutler (@angelstorm13) reported 58 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

  @virginmedia We have had no TV in L22 since Saturday 11th July, outage checker has shown fix time this afternoon - just received a text to say engineer on the way, fix time now tomorrow. This is a bit more than rubbish, how do I claim compensation? (I thought it was automatic)

• 
  You’re Just Listening 😀 (@ChatchoMan) reported 16 minutes ago

  @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK If Virgin Media are such money grabbing filth that they don’t want to believe a grieving person that contacts them and just terminate the contract they should at least backdate it based on the death certificate. Anything other than that is disgraceful.
