  @virginmedia An ongoing account issue. All I’m trying to do is sort it out. Your staff accepted my call today and then hung up after 17 minutes of hold time.

  When you’re trying to upload and synch 20gb of wedding photos via a 4g hotspot because your @virginmedia broadband has been down for days on end with useless customer service and you have a deadline. It’s never ending! 😩 #virginmedia #custometservicefail #fail

  @SilentMugger @virginmedia Richard. don't bother. I've had various Internet providers and virgin is the worst. I've been without Internet for 23 hours and counting now and still can't get hold of anyone to help. I can't do my job and they appear to have issues all over the UK.

  @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?

  @MikeCoxCowes @virginmedia @HP What hope is there for the smart home when even a wireless printer needs reconfiguring after a simple wi-fi network change?

  @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...

  Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported 52 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?

• 
  seanhannam (@seanhannam) reported 53 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.

  @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.

  Oliver Fatyol (@IstvanOFatyol) reported 55 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

  @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!

  I would contact you directly @virginmedia but your 'My Virgin Media' website won't allow me to sign in. I assume that this kind of obstructiveness is what got you fined so lavishly by @Ofcom

  UAVHive (@UAVHive) reported 22 minutes ago

  @Edeaulx @virginmedia Having worked in telecoms I can vouch for the fact that Virgin Media's customer service is atrocious and I'd argue is the worst in the industry. I would never be a customer of theirs ever again.

  @EoinLenihan Virgin Media promoted by FFG without public consultation to status of a Public Broadcasting Co Should not be allowed on X to use an a/c when reporting on a news incident eg. Skerries brawl which denies the public to make comment When they allow only selected accounts reply

  James Durrant (@je_durrant) reported 28 minutes ago

  @coveragechecker @virginmedia Was initially a local outage but turned into someone had unplugged my cable at the exchange and it needed replacing. Sh*t happens, I get it, but to leave someone who pays £1500 a year for a service without anything for a month is plain bad

  Wolf of X (@WolfofX) reported 30 minutes ago

  In 2003, Stan Beaton lost his wife, Ruby, to stomach cancer. Before she passed away, she had recorded the voicemail greeting for their home telephone. It was an ordinary message to anyone else, but to Stan it became the last recording of her voice. For more than a decade, he kept that voicemail safe. He even stayed with the same phone company because he feared changing providers might erase it. Whenever he missed Ruby, he would call his own home just to hear her say, "Sorry, at the moment, Stan and Ruby are not available..." For him, those few seconds were enough to bring her close again. Then, in December 2014, a network upgrade accidentally deleted the recording. Stan was heartbroken. He later said it felt like losing his wife all over again. Believing there was nothing left to lose, he contacted Virgin Media and asked if there was any way to recover it. What followed was something no one expected. Eleven telecommunications engineers spent three days searching through backup systems for a single deleted audio file. They described it as looking for a needle in a haystack, but they refused to give up. They found it. Instead of simply returning the recording, BBC Radio Leeds arranged a surprise during an interview with Stan. As Ruby's familiar voice filled the room once again, he broke down in tears. "That's her. Wonderful. Wonderful." The company later gave Stan permanent copies of the recording on a CD so he would never have to fear losing it again. It wasn't just a recovered voicemail. It was the return of the last words he could still hear from the woman he loved, a voice that had waited silently for years until someone cared enough to bring it back.
