    @virginmedia I’m on Microsoft edge & have copied the link. Still nothing give me a contact number to actually speak to someone. On Saturday my wife was promised a resolution by Tuesday( today). Is this yet another lie ?

    @SGiangregorio @virginmedia Terrible for the money they charge people. No doubt they’ll be happy enough increase your bill though at the end of the year

    Aidan Carey (@Aidan1964) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia I'm a new customer and cannot access my account. I've spoken to your customer service team a number of times and they haven't been able to sort my issue out. My account is tagged as a secondary account, but I'm the primary account holder!

    @virginmedia what’s going on with internet service in HD8 area ? I don’t want to have to wait 23 hours before calling a technician as advised by your service page

  • Jp_Leeson
    John Leeson (@Jp_Leeson) reported from Wibsey, England

    @virginmedia Yeah he turned up unannounced and left then after several calls got another engineer out who said the fibre cable is snapped and needs replacing and he could not give me a date or time as his emails on his pda are not working so I guess it’s left in the hands of the gods

    @HAWTToys I'm on Sky and their Internet service is 100 times better than Virgin media's

  • Mcollinson72
    Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia ongoing intermittent issues with my broadband for weeks now and yet your website gives no option to get through to anyone to help despite it promising to do so. Keeps telling me to check back in 24 hours. Unacceptable level of service!

    Pennine HR - your HR partners in business (@PennineHR) reported from Huddersfield, England

    @vmbusiness we are customers in Huddersfield hd4 6en no Internet and can't get into our account or find any info on faults etc. Can you help please?

    Barry (@Barry80901949) reported from Bradford, England

    @virginmedia Have you received my email yet? 21 hours and no response to confirm as you said you would. Still an absolute **** show of a company

  • GavHeaton
    That Heaton Mess (@GavHeaton) reported from Wibsey, England

    @virginmedia Currently not so bad as of yesterday evening. But as @GGTVBD has stated, quite expecting that to change later today. I have noticed however that at a few points throughout the night it must have dropped again as parts of my cctv recording I've reviewed says 'Poor WiFi connection'

  • AndyHiggs1
    Porrohman (@AndyHiggs1) reported from Huddersfield, England

    @virginmedia how are we supposed to get in touch with you over a box problem when you say the email address that you send the bill to isn't recognised 🤔

  • paul_phillips83
    Paul David Phillips (@paul_phillips83) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia been on hold 15 minutes your agent been back to me yet again same telling me I have to pay extra why do virgin think that if you charge extra this will fix an issue #badcustomerservice actually get it right first time to stop repeat calls

  • ScampyFryNinja
    Paul Knowles (@ScampyFryNinja) reported from Drighlington, England

    @virginmedia your internets gone down in BD11 area. its been off about 15mins now. Router has the red ring around it.

  • SaffsAI
    Bam Bam (@SaffsAI) reported from Bradford, England

    Why companies like @virginmedia use WhatsApp support I do not know. The system makes you wait an hour, if you don't respond in 10 minutes, it kicks you off the chat just to make you wait again
