    Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia I’ve run test after test, at least 5-6 outages a month for last 2 years. Horrendous service and this is the final straw unless you offer me a refund of say £20 a month for last two years, if not I’m going BT and a dodgy box from Mad Frank in pub

  • AnnielizzieSten
    Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Oh yes and I’ve phoned. It appears to be that yesterday’s problems haven’t been resolved.

  • ArmitageJohn
    John Armitage (@ArmitageJohn) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia hi guys, I’ve been without TV services for over two weeks now. Every attempt to@reach you has me going around in circles. Tried the app. Doesn’t recognise my email, and doesn’t recognise my acct no + area ref. Please help. Can I talk to someone?!!

  • AndrewKerrison6
    Andrew Kerrison (@AndrewKerrison6) reported from Rotherham, England

    @virginmedia I tried to report a problem. The advisor was only interested in selling me a upgraded package. Miss selling packages to customers is not good practice

  • popsgolf
    Andrew Poppleton 💙 (@popsgolf) reported from Wentworth, England

    @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?

  • VanceBulla
    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

  • victimsvoice73
    Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported from Sheffield, England

    Dad got rushed to hospital still in and @O2 connection is still not working in my house or mums @virginmedia mobile same problem (according to there test it’s fine) well try using it here especially when a loved one is ill and you can’t even connect a phone call &it’s a main road

  • Helen_Claire71
    Helen-Claire Stone (@Helen_Claire71) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia’s customer service is appalling. 3 hours to respond to a message has to be the benchmark for worst practice. Last weekend it took them 27 hours to sort out cancelling my account. Absolutely hopeless.

  • lettielou05
    lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia very unhappy failed install and had no service since Saturday and I'm within my 14 days to cancel yet your staff don't understand this and want to charge me for a fault call !! When do you become so crap !!!

  • tevowl9
    Adam (@tevowl9) reported from Brinsworth, England

    Billy Chatfield (@BillyChatfield) reported

    @virginmedia I was due to get a call back on Tuesday and didn't, so i rang back myself and was told the sales team will call me back within 72hrs... still nothing. Are you purposely wanting customers to leave and find another provider, or just really poor customer services?! 🤔

  • strutcakes
    Chris 🏳️‍🌈 (@strutcakes) reported

    @virginmedia @xcsuhayla This is NOT ACCEPTABLE. You can’t get through to anyone over the phone and your “fix estimates” change every couple of hours. Why can’t you provide accurate information? It’s beyond a joke how awful you’ve been for the past 48 hours.

  • SammyChess
    Samuel Chesson (@SammyChess) reported

    @virginmedia @willjennings80 As @willjennings80 mentioned the service has been down since 11am yesterday. It is now saying it will be fixed at 10am tomorrow, but that doesn't inspire much confidence as we have already had 4 or 5 different fix times already. Is there any possibility of more information?

  • eamonn72
    Eamonn Moran (@eamonn72) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, it’s my Mobile Data that’s really slow, it’s been over a week! The agent I spoke to got me to do a network refresh. When will it be back up to speed?

  • feenixtatt
    David (@feenixtatt) reported

    @virginmedia after having status of repair being fixed at 1900 switched at 1845 to 1000 tomorrow. Now 48 hours no service #virginmediadown

    @virginmedia what's the status of the issue in SW2 issue is FO08869366 I've been out of action for more than 24 hours. I need more transparency please. #OutageUpdate

  • soundiesam
    Samuel Lynam (@soundiesam) reported

    @virginmedia how has my internet now been down 2 days and you haven’t contacted me with a reason and your get updates function isn’t working. How can it possibly take 2 days to fix an issue. Your customer service is terrible.

  • jetset82
    Dale (@jetset82) reported

    @virginmedia We have told each team the series of events and how their work last month resulted in our outage, yet it has taken them them 3 weeks to feed a new cable. Shame another team has to physically connect it to the property, which has so far taken another 3 days...

    brad_lfc12 (@brad_lfc12) reported
