Yorkshire Chuff (@YorkshireChuff) reported from Sheffield, EnglandReading all the tweets from you idiots who haven't got unlimited 5g hotspot. Been paying for this for years. For this very moment. **** you #virginmedia

Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Barlborough, England@virginmedia I finally got through to a real person via text today and booked a landline appointment, although It’s not the anytime plan that I wanted . Never had so much trouble switching provider. Almost not worth it.
-
GAMING DRAGON (@GAMINGDRAGONUK) reported from Hoyland Nether, England@virginmedia I already have and I reported the fault bit it see like you have a service outage in my area
-
Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Chesterfield, England@virginmedia I have tried that text service for the last two days. ‘Terri BOT’ is no use. I need to speak to a real person . All that needs doing is the issue of a new bill without the £35 activation fee. This is becoming the worst decision I’ve ever made in relation to switching broadband
-
Amy 🦉 (@Amy_1867) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia whenever I’m on zoom upstairs and away from my route my wifi always seems to drop out. It’s always says my internet connection is unstable. I’ve restarted router etc is there anything else I can do to boost it
-
Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported from Sheffield, England@mouthwaite @virginmedia I had awful internet for years with them best thing I ever did was change to sky and not only do I get more for my money it’s cheaper than what I was paying roughly three years ago xxxx
-
Callum 🏳️🌈 🔴⚪⚫ 🔰 (@Callum_SEND) reported from Brampton Bierlow, England@virginmedia I appreciate you trying to help. The issue is with the virgin contract being 18 months and the "new" o2 deal being 24 months and how this would impact as I looked to renegotiate in 18 months
-
Claire Stewart (@chococlaire77) reported from Sheffield, EnglandWell @virginmedia what a waste of our time today,we booked an engineer in the time slot 8-12,and nobody arrived I’m afraid.Tried contacting you,and can’t get through...can anyone help?
-
Sam Millington (@cranworth791) reported from Rawmarsh, England@virginmedia Yeah that’s fine, or just a phone number / person to deal with? It’s my parents business and they have their property engineers coming out to view the issue on Monday. I assume they will be in touch themselves regarding the issues. Luckily it’s just rain water, and not sewage.
-
Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported from Sheffield, EnglandAnyone recommend a phone network been with @O2 for years and since it merged with @virginmedia it’s shocking. When I went on holiday before I’d never had problems this year wouldn’t let me go my own internet & here signal keeps going for phoning not to mention rise in scam calls
-

-BMiller- (@BMiller36990477) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia Sure, office this morning at about 8am. No service and Internet access by 9.30M and popped back late morning and still nothing around 10.45am. So finished my admin at home with my own broadband connection. Didn't call or raise the issue as its a pointless exercise. Cheers

-
The Great Socrates (@Find_truth4all) reported@virginmedia I’d rather have many other users post comments in support of my observation so Virgin Media can see the level of frustration from customers.
-
Johnycantdecide (@ladydaveg) reportedDiagnostic tests suck, the myvm app sucks, your ai at the end of the phone can't tell the difference between zero and three and I still can't speak to anyone. Is there anything you can do right? @virginmedia
-
Expanse Consulting Ltd (@ExpanseCon) reported@ulickdcox @VodafoneIreland Not a vodafone issue. Looks like a core switch failure, optical cross-connect fault or other fault inside one of the central carrier-neutral hubs. It has dropped interconnection across multiple fixed ISPs (Virgin Media, Eir, Siro, NBI) simultaneously.
-
Paul O'Brien (@PaulOBrienKil) reported@VMSportIE I strongly urge anyone thinking of subscribing to @virginmedia to NOT do it. Took over a hour to get through to customer service & they still won't fix their mistake. Shambles of an organisation.
-
Alexander McCloy (@alexalexfyi) reported@Ofcom @virginmedia tactics still awful when trying to leave - harassing with calls that are irrelevant and could be emailed. Agents saying ‘no’ to requests to raise complaints and spoken to in appalling manor.
-
Truthwillsetyoufree (@Truthwills26171) reported@RakeLark @handsomedave32 @VirginMediaNews What personal issues, my disgust at the race baiting grifters and the morons who support them? If that’s a personal issue I’ll happily hold it. Where did I say it wasn’t a concern or problem? I stated facts about Virgin Media, & that many agencies can get state funds!
-
Matt Whitby (@mattwhitby) reportedIs there a worse customer support than @virginmedia ? Ten minutes in between responses, and incapable of answering a simple question.
-
Khal (@khal_lfc) reported@Bev2810 @virginmedia I moved to YouFibre as @virginmedia was just too expensive and the service has been appalling over the last year
-
Seren 7 (@Seren_7) reported@virginmedia your online chat to us hasn’t worked for over 6 weeks. I have only been able to cancel today after being on a 1 hour call. Please advise when my account will be credited?

Tom (Yogi) (@tummyevans) reportedGood old virgin media decided to go down at 7:30 and pull me out the game so cheering the rest of the chums on tonight. We had a swift 3-0 win yesterday hopefully same again tonight 🍑
