  @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.

  Paul Swain (@PaulswainDJ) reported 2 minutes ago from Kings Langley, England

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

  seanhannam (@seanhannam) reported 3 minutes ago from Chesham Bois, England

  Didn’t realised upgrading our @virginmedia internet would cripple my home office. Wireless @HP printer can’t find the network and I have to get new boosters for the other rooms in the house. So frustrating - I’ve wasted so much time trying to sort it all out. To no avail.

  @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.

• 
  Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported 8 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 9 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 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?

  @virginmedia bit of a pain that if you want to cancel a new connection on a weekend then the first line cancellation don't seem to know you can't do this...

  @virginmedia I’ve had REALLY bad connectivity all week. Please can you help? Have reset device to little avail. Ty

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

• 
  Paul Simmonds (@paulusthegrey) reported 24 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.

• 
  Harold Wicks (@hw_renewe) reported 26 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!?

  Alistair 🏴‍☠️ Burns (@gashead) reported 28 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.

  @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

• 
  Mel B (@crimimel) reported 35 minutes ago from Welwyn Garden City, England

  @virginmedia Hope we’re getting a refund for lack of service as daughter is trying to write her 10,000 word dissertation but very difficult to do without internet. Should not advertise deals to new customers if you don’t bother sorting out the network issues. Cancelling

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

• 
  Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported 38 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.

  🦒🤓TimmyLDN🙄🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇦🏳️‍🌈🦒 (@TimmyLDN) reported 49 minutes ago from Ealing, England

  @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.

  maureen robert (@morish1) reported 56 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!!!

• 
  Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported 60 minutes ago from Watford, England

  @virginmedia is there a problem impacting broadband in wd17? Services dropped suddenly at around 1:30-1:45pm today.

  @virginmedia why don’t you lot just leave stuff alone! Updated my tv box and now it don’t work… Shock!! Time to look at moving to sky instead of your overpriced **** stuff!!

  Fergal Hickey (@fergal_hickey) reported 10 minutes ago

  @VirginMediaIE Shocking Virgin Media Mobile. Can’t receive calls from Vodafone numbers for 6wks now. Now told it’s a widespread problem after being fobbed off for a month. Not good enough - VM should have been honest with subscribers and advised them but chose deceit instead

• 
  Ali@Makely (@MakelyStudio) reported 12 minutes ago

  10 years. 50M+ users. £11M+ revenue impact. Citibank. Mercedes. Sky. Virgin Media. NatWest. I spent a decade fixing conversion problems at companies most startups would kill to work with. what I learned: the same broken patterns show up everywhere - onboarding that loses people in the first 60 seconds, pricing pages that confuse instead of convert, signup flows with friction nobody ever fixed. now I build the same systems for funded startups.

• 
  Andy W (@AndrewW12290183) reported 13 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Well after 30 years that's me left VM. I would advise anyone to check their contracts to make sure you are not getting charged for a package you never signed up for(Like me) Forget complaining and watch out for the trick of you having to apply for a returns package

  Dr. William Weir (@WilliamWeirFun) reported 20 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I don’t need your reminder, know my bill is overdue. It’s not with the want of my me not trying to pay it mind. I’ve been trying to sign in to PAY the bill for days but due to your insane stupid link up with O2 I can’t.

• 
  TB (@Peerabeee) reported 20 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I am paying for a service you cannot deliver. Multiple failed engineer visits (Dec 24, Jan 22) and internet is still broken. you demand an illegal cancellation fee? I have raised a formal complaint: C-010626172 (Yeliz Guven Bilgin). Sort this out under Ofcom rules.

  @O2 since joining virgin media the coverage in Milton Keynes is terrible. I’m almost always on 1 bar. You’ve gone from being the best signal in the area to probably the worst.

  @virginmedia how stupid is that to push an update to my router/hub in the middle of the ******* day? How the hell am I supposed to work without internet?
