It's actually tragic how bad @virginmedia broadband has gotten over the last few days. Hope we are refunded for this period of shocking internet coverage. Still think it's the best service but need to sort out current issues.

@vmbusiness my business broadband is down and I cannot take debit and credit card payments. Also the WiFi will randomly cut out on us. Could you please check this out. I have a essential business to run, and I am not as lucky as @richardbranson to ask for a bail out! Help us!

Loving all the people moaning their virgin media being down. Most being paid for by their parents! Stop moaning! Either they’ve had a major piece of equipment fail or they’ve been hacked. Be patient, and it will be sorted. Or move to another and only get slow 30mb broadband!

@virginmedia This is another problem with Virgin Media: the contradictory information. I can set my watch to the outages. Terrible service.

@virginmedia Thank you, I eventually got through to a human being - took about 45 minutes which is pretty awful! I was concerned about the cost of service provision which has now been resolved.

@virginmedia App says 1100. Helpline says 1600. Which one is correct? Service went off at approximately 2030 last night. I'll be starting another round of complaints.

Has anyone had trouble cancelling a contract with Virgin Media even though you were well within the cooling off period? I have cancelled both in writing and by phone but still have not received a cancellation confirmation email as promised!

@virginmedia Yes that’s what your customer call centre has said to me - without a reference who investigated. Not sure what is the purpose of this social handle when you can’t even handle customer queries @richardbranson pls can you intervene

@virginmedia can’t get through on 150. Do you guys ever answer. I would now like to cancel my tv and broadband with you. But can’t even get through to do this! Do I just cancel my direct debit?

@virginmedia me again. To be clear after you canceled my 90 year old mother's contract and cut her off without warning leaving her, isolated from emergency support and assistance, are you going to repay the credit of her account or adding theft to company policy. @Ofcom
