  @virginmedia You have just repeated, word for word, the last tweet you sent me, to which I replied! Pointless trying to have any conversation with @virginmedia because it just goes round in circles! The most appalling customer services in UK in my experience! No more tweets from you, please!

  @virginmedia afternoon. I’ve been on hold for 25 mins and when I finally got through the line went dead after security questions. My mum has been without her TV service for over a week. Last night an engineer was due by 6 o’clock and never showed. Another text stating the 26th

  Mad that I pay £71 a month for 350mbps a month for @virginmedia for them to only supply me with 40mbps, internet is barely moving, can’t even load basic web pages on my MacBook or phone. Problems in the Birmingham area??

  Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported 12 minutes ago from Birmingham, England

  @virginmedia Nobody has called me and the WhatsApp chat is very frustrating and not dealing with the issue. This is very simple, I was sent contract paperwork with an agreed monthly fee of £86.75. Why have I paid two months of excessively higher payments. I should have left VM

  @virginmedia Experiencing issues in your area there is a technician in the area but still doesn't explain why my routers fans go really loud and disconnected from everything I have to keep resetting to get it back to normal then on top get "issues in my area" like always

  @virginmedia its nice you’re offering new customers ridiculously cheap deals but charging prices through the roof for an inferior service for a customer of nearly 20 years #CostOfLivingCrisis

  Simon Neale (@nealesj) reported 39 minutes ago from Swindon, England

  It looks like @virginmedia name servers are not accessible so no DNS records can be resolved. A major outage for their services. Seems to be no comms from them. @BBCNews are you aware? #VirginMediaDown #VirginMedia

  @virginmedia Yes, and every-time it says no issue, when there clearly is! It interferes with everything, the hive, the tv everything! Really considering going elsewhere.

  @Niknaklady1 @virginmedia Oh dear. That's what made me think the problem may not be virgin, if you've got signal on another set. Hope you get it sorted 👍

  @virginmedia Internet has been down again for the whole night. When I spoke to you about the recent last 6 times it’s been down you said there was no issue! Looks like whole of UK was down now yet our bills go UP & UP & UP! #virginmedia

  @ArrEssVeeTwin @jen_moxon @virginmedia many years ago at previous address I had to take annual leave to call Virgin customer services during UK office hours, when I knew it was UK call centre answering, as the foreign one never logged a single call so had to start all over each time.

  @virginmedia the new router is a terrible design. Why are the airholes at the top, so now all the dust is going to easily get into the box and damage it quicker. There's no pull out tab to easily see WiFi password and the router is wider 🫠
