    V-Bull (@VanceBulla) reported from Brampton Bierlow, England

    @virginmedia Faceless customer service. Can’t live chat, can’t chat to anyone on the phone. All they want to do is send you a text or a link to their website. Poor. What am I paying for? Certainly isn’t customer service

    @virginmedia I hung up the call, rang back and spoke with a lovely man. Reset my email, password and answered all my quedtions. All the men are when you call, the female was awful. But thank you for the response

    Thomas Foster (@Sedontane) reported from Newbold, England

    @nickkzie @scazz786 @virginmedia I have their business broadband, it's been awful. I then pulled the Internet cable out of the modem and fell back on the 4G backup on my plan. Fixed. I'll plug the cable back in tomorrow and get my speed back.

    David JS Dawkes-Hall 💙 (@statto95) reported from Hoyland Nether, England

    And the 4th time today everything has gone down. How am I meant to run a medical company control room when my Internet keeps dropping out? @virginmedia are you going to pay the company for loss of income which is being suffered? Or me for that matter.....

  • HarlamTK
    Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia I tried that and that’s how I got stuck in this situation. Is there a number I can call that is DIRECT for a complaint?

    Ian Naylor (@ianpnaylor) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Not really. He said that there had been an outage in the area. That seems to happen nearly every day at the moment. Resetting the box multiple times, running a test, waiting then hoping.

    @virginmedia Third time it's been down today now. Yes completely down, we have no Internet at all. What other services do you mean? We only have broadband with you. Yes, I've booked but not until next week, we CAN NOT have this service for 3-5 days before someone comes out?!

  • TheG0000ner
    Gooner (@TheG0000ner) reported from Chesterfield, England

    Is there something wrong with @virginmedia at the moment. Got a very very crap speed of less than 1mbs #virginmedia #virginmobile in the S40 area. Can't log into my account either? 🤬 This is happening far too often for £69 a month!!!

  • maddyarden
    Prof Maddy Arden (@maddyarden) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia our broadband down without warning and service update says you hope to fix this by 5th April! Why so long? We rely on this for work - unacceptable

    @O2PriorityUK I’m struggling to connect with app. I’m a @virginmedia account holder. Initial you sent me a code but via my mobile. Now my phone number is placed in the box it doesn’t recognise it. Help?

    @virginmedia how do we get the new wifi extender pods or a new Virgin Hub? Our wifi signal and speed changes dramatically between the front and back of the house, the coverage is dreadful

    @virginmedia Hi, Liam said someone would call back tomorrow. No issue with service, just can't have in the new build. The service is not in the area. Let's see if we get the call back tomorrow. Shouldn't treat a leaving customer like ****.

    @virginmedia still not gettingg full speed for connection on internet, very slow, phone lines a joke still to get through - Covid as per usual - fed up of slow speeds constantly after new router!!! Please sort yourselves out!!!

  • ReeceBryan94
    Reece Bryan (@ReeceBryan94) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia when are you going to start issuing people the Hub 4 as the SH3 is useless for delivering wifi. Doesn’t help that you seem to be constantly having issues and massive speed problems over the last month. Any chance of us actually getting a service that we pay for?!

  • pidgpie
    Chris,,,, (@pidgpie) reported from Rotherham, England

    @virginmedia mandatory internet down again S65

    The Government is asking its TDs to vote against a Sinn Féin proposal to begin preparations for a United Ireland. The bill, being debated in the Dáil this evening, would require the Government to establish a Citizens' Assembly on Irish unity. Ministers say the proposal is being rushed and that the issue requires a broader, more considered approach. More on Virgin Media PLAY. #VMNews

    Gary Jackson (@lugazafc) reported

    The amount of times by broadband has gone down or dropped out from @virginmedia recently is shocking! Thankfully my renewal date is coming up as it won’t be a renew this time after being a customer for a majority of my bill paying life!

    @mcardle_mi42856 Never even checked Virgin media 3, I’ll make sure to check it next week. Didn’t think they had live sport on there.

    🔴 Ofcom fines Virgin Media £28m for blocking customer cancellations Virgin Media breached UK telecoms rules by deliberately dropping calls, transferring customers unnecessarily, and placing them on hold to prevent contract cancellations between January 2022 and September 2024. Ofcom received nearly 2,000 complaints and found the company's retention agents operated under a commission scheme that financially rewarded obstruction. • Fine of £28m — Ofcom's largest ever under consumer protection rules, reduced 30% after Virgin Media admitted fault and agreed to settle • Millions of calls "likely mishandled" during the three-year period
