  @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

  @virginmedia It’s on both WiFi and wired. At this present moment I’m unable to get ANY network from the router on both.

  @Ofcom can I complain about @virginmedia to yourselves? Had no TV service for nearly a month with no help.

  Steve Lees (@measlewolf) reported 15 minutes ago from Dudley, England

  @virginmedia I’m currently on hold. My mum is in her 70’s and waited in for an engineer only for them to send a text 10mins before to say you were coming in the 26th. The original appointment was the 21st and her TV service has been down for well over a week.

  @virginmedia I understand that your systems were down last night, which happens, but I’ve been on hold for 30 mins this morning. We have a text to say it’s resolved but it isn’t. I just need to speak to someone please.

  Stu Jones (@StuJonesMusic) reported 54 minutes ago from Kidderminster, England

  Hi @virginmedia, I am in Kidderminster, Worcestershire (DY11) and my Virgin Media broadband connection is very poor this week. I have checked your website & apparently there are no issues in my area. I have also restated my access point/router twice but no improvement.

  Howard Martin 🇺🇦🇪🇺 (@HJMKent) reported 57 minutes ago from Kidderminster, England

  @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!

  Casey Rain (aka S-Endz) (@CaseyRain) reported 58 minutes ago from Birmingham, England

  Had an @virginmedia broadband outage on Sunday for 2 hours. Since then, connection so spotty that I'm getting 10 seconds of completely dropped packets followed by 20 seconds of slow-as-molasses ping times once every 10 minutes.

  @virginmedia WiFi has been slow for the past few days. The app is constantly showing that there is an issue with Virgin in my area. Today it isn’t working at all. How long does it take to sort out? The weekend is coming up and no wifi 🙄

  Cheryl Chau (@CherylChau1029) reported 6 minutes ago

  @virginmedia 2hr phone wait! Mis-sold £78 (quoted £33.99) + 24hr outage. Fix it or I'm cancelling under 14-day cooling-off. #VirginMedia

  Steve Furniss (@SteveFurni7742) reported 7 minutes ago

  @O2 @ryjeasterbrook Why is your Virgin Media call line so poor 1 hour 30 minutes waiting today at 8am and no response. On line chat bots are rubbish for specific queries. About the poorest customer service there is

• 
  Adam Kieran Fellows (@fellowska) reported 15 minutes ago

  @virginmedia and just as I bloody expected, phone gets put down. Absolutely a ******* joke. Been waiting for you to get back to me since Thursday on WhatsApp, your bot can’t put me through to an agent either. Disgraceful customer service

  Hi @virginmedia my internets back down again today. Any chance of flicking switch for a couple of hours? Ta Josh xoxoxo

• 
  Christopher Knibb (@chris_knibb) reported 20 minutes ago

  Could @virginmedia be the worst company to get in touch with? Trying to cancel my contract. Website isn’t working, chat facility is glitching and after two hours no one has answered the phone. Gone slightly crazy listening to the same jazz song over and over again!

• 
  Chris Hobbs (@obbsie) reported 20 minutes ago

  @virginmedia getting slaughtered on 'X' re customer service. Customers have been trying for literally hours to get through. I'm approaching 30 minutes as I've just seen what my new monthly bill is & am being told that unless I install a new box, I'll be cut off. It's the same muzak over & over again.

  billy winter (@billywi56359173) reported 20 minutes ago

  @virginmedia can’t say I’m surprised to see I’m not the only person struggling with your shocking service, internets been cutting out on and off for weeks and every time I’ve tried to get support online it says ‘check back in 24 hours if you’re having the same issues’ t
