    @virginmedia don’t want to sound like a Karen but your internet has been ******* appalling this week, down yet again what a joke

    @virginmedia I hope you are going to compensate people for these issues. Mines been like this for weeks so much so that I thought it was the super hub. Looks like I may leave I’m June service is awful

  • MarkPashby
    Mark Pashby (@MarkPashby) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia still no connectivity at all for me in SS0. Running a successful ISP should also surely include upda ting customers when issues arrise. Internet connectivity in this day and age is a utility, not a nice to have. #virginmediadown

  • Mickey_Rynn
    Mickey R. (@Mickey_Rynn) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia internet completely down. Also your websites: can't even get on to check status elsewhere

  • MarkPashby
    Mark Pashby (@MarkPashby) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia i get it. Captalist country and therefore a fallacy to beleive we dont need you. You social media support responders are in jobs etc But really, VM broadband is a joke. Bring back telewest and the more personal service of old. #virginmediadown again

  • BrazilArteUK
    BrazilArte (@BrazilArteUK) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    I’ve been waiting in all day for a package. For them not to deliver as they couldn’t ring the door bell. @virginmedia please don’t use @YodelOnline anymore they are the worst company ever.

  • thebooooooth
    Mark Booth (@thebooooooth) reported from Basildon, England

    So @virginmedia lie to you and then don't respond to you or follow up your phone request to make a complaint. Why did i ever leave Sky! The service has been shocking, wouldn't recommend Virgin to anyone

    Joey (@Joewilkins14) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia I mean honestly if you want to sort your shit out, all the boys wanna do is win *** one on clubs again

  • Joewilkins14
    Joey (@Joewilkins14) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia any idea when you might actually fix your internet issues... it’s not like people are trying to work from home or anything! ABSOLUTELY USESLESS!!!!!

  • TylerTowers
    Ashley Halliday (@TylerTowers) reported from Gillingham, England

    40 minutes on hold (so far)for @virginmedia’ customer service. Whilst loads of online options to “solve your problem” when you get through on the phone and told they need to transfer my call, you do hope they are on the case! Why did I ever leave Sky - a false economy

    @virginmedia Complaint wasn’t listened to properly it’s impossible to get through on the phone. Once you have people’s business you don’t even care about their issues

  • samainsliemusic
    Sam Ainslie (@samainsliemusic) reported

    @virginmedia FYI this problem hasn’t resolved and I can’t get hold of anyone. I’m plugged in via eithernet cable and I’m trying to download a 400mb document and had to switch to my phones hotspot because your WiFi #virgin is so #bad I live in central London?

    @virginmedia are all of your staff on holiday today? 25 minutes of bad X-Factor music. Atrocious customer service.

  • Omilburn
    Oliver Milburn (@Omilburn) reported

    @virginmedia hi guys, your service is not working properly, there seems to be no information and even your 150 number isn't working, what do you suggest we do?

  • althepieman
    Al Studd (@althepieman) reported

    hey @virginmedia i've been on hold for nearly an hour and been transferred 4 times while trying to cancel my account, its almost like you told your call centre staff to make it impossible to cancel #virginmedia

  • rita_capaldo
    Rita capaldo (@rita_capaldo) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia I have already raised a complain but it doesn’t help that my daughter is at home not able to study.

  • mmcm_media
    Mikey McManus (@mmcm_media) reported

    @virginmedia So your number is engaged. You don't respond via text and email is laughable. You are literally uncontactable about an issue...any issue. My inconsistent service AND cancelation; I can't do either through your "lightning fast" service....neither of which is real.
