  • charl_middo Charlotte Louise Middleton (@charl_middo) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia what is the problem with the broadband in the L9 area?! It’s been dodgy for weeks now and my husband now has to use his phone as a hotspot to be able to actually work from home because the broadband is so shocking!

  • KarlTwist Karl Twist (@KarlTwist) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia No account info to login, no mobile sim card and poor broadband speeds. No ownership from anyone I’ve spoken to so far and no clearer if/when issues will be sorted. Where do I stand with cooling off period to cancel?

  • chaser_51 Simon Janion (@chaser_51) reported from Runcorn, England

    @virginmedia hi there. My mum is having with her TV. We know there is an issue in her area and is being sorted but this is the 5th time this has happened in 3 wks. Please can someone contact me to explain why this is happening so often and what can be done? Thanks.

  • DannyWyattXXX Danny Wyatt | OnlyFans 25% off (@DannyWyattXXX) reported from St Helens, England

    Anybody else having Virgin media problems? #virginmediadown

  • GaryBeggs_8 Gary Beggs (@GaryBeggs_8) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia can’t get through on the phone, so you launch an app to manage your own account, then when you try and make changes it sends you to a chat option which also you can’t get through on. Your service is an absolute joke !

  • BenjiMaccers Benji McLoughlin (@BenjiMaccers) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia Your online checker tells me my line is fine. It’s not. There was an outage yesterday, it came back on and now it’s off again. I’ve restarted the hub multiple times.

  • Reducedfatross Ross Walker (@Reducedfatross) reported from Hindley, England

    Guarantees in life ... Death Taxes #virginmedia going down every bastard day 🙄 #virginmediadown

  • GailCharnock Gail Charnock (@GailCharnock) reported from Shevington, England

    @virginmedia You are aware of the problem, told us it's a fault and it's being fixed by 12th April, it wasn't, we rang, you gave us reassurance it will be fixed by the 22nd, it hasn't, we rang got passed around a lot! Now you say it will be fixed 29th. Hands up if you would put up with this?

  • KarlTwist Karl Twist (@KarlTwist) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Please have somebody contact me, I’ve been with you less than a week and I’ve had nothing but problems. It’s been a shocking early experience

  • ConnorTWilson Connor Wilson (@ConnorTWilson) reported from Birkenhead, England

    Virgin Media WiFi is honestly the worst to be with. Trying to watch films using the WiFi and its going off every 10 minutes. Nothing to do with our signal or our bill, it's just plain shite. Are they gonna sort it out? Are they ****

  • ConnorTWilson Connor Wilson (@ConnorTWilson) reported from Birkenhead, England

    Honestly I could rant for ages about how bad Virgin media WiFi is, and they never seem to make an effort to improve it

  • Kayls3457 Kayleigh Speakman (@Kayls3457) reported from Abram, England

    @virginmedia Yet another WiFi and TV outage. Hence another...

  • SharonLLeonard Sharon Leonard (@SharonLLeonard) reported from Bryn, England

    @virginmedia I don’t want DIY I want the service I pay for in my 3 bed house!

  • Swell09 Swell ✌🏻 (Pronoun: She/Her) (@Swell09) reported from Seaforth, England

    @DeannaLouise93 @virginmedia We’ve had nothing but issues as well D!! I raised a complaint and they keep saying they can’t contact us! Nobody has called my dad! Still having issues after two engineers!

  • steveeades Steve Eades (@steveeades) reported from Runcorn, England

    @virginmedia I have used this service in the past and faults have been noted, I have also reported it before now on my account. It’s just weird that every Sunday I appear to be having issues.

  • suefitz09 Susan Fitzpatrick (@suefitz09) reported

    @virginmedia I’m basically warning people not to go with you guys for any services as it’s one problem after another

  • HassanM19810212 Be the One (@HassanM19810212) reported

    @virginmedia I used to hear about bad customer service of @virginhelp but today I really experienced it. Person at the other is really unprofessional and unpolite man when I was trying to sort out #virgin_mobile_CS_theWorst issue. Seriously mood destroyer.

  • davidasimmons David Simmons (@davidasimmons) reported

    @virginmedia My issues that I couldn't book an engineer until 31st Dec, that is over a week away!

  • schismmonger Generation X (@schismmonger) reported

    @virginmedia customer service complaints department is like navigating Dante's 7 circles of hell. Hours on the phone with no one taking responsibility. @richardbranson would be shocked at the state of this company.

  • netsmith chris aldridge (@netsmith) reported

    @virginmedia That says service and speed are all fine

  • StevePem Steve Pemberton (@StevePem) reported

    @virginmedia AND YET ANOTHER LIE from @virginmedia the worst service I have been received from any company!

  • Lassitude1k1 Lassitude (@Lassitude1k1) reported

    @virginmedia called again, earliest appointment for an engineer is the 5th of Jan. Won't send me a superhub to do it myself. That'll be 3 weeks without service I'm paying for. Great stuff. Any assistance please?

  • LWhitson16 L.Whitson (@LWhitson16) reported

    @virginmedia Ok. Your website is useless goes round in circles. Your customer service is dreadful. You have closed down your shops, who could be helpful. And you can't DM! I can't put personal details on Twitter. So here we are.

  • KwekuBimpong Kweku Andrew Bimpong (@KwekuBimpong) reported

    @virginmedia Thank you - I don't doubt your efforts, however your initial projection was wrong and exacerbated the issue and I have little faith going forward. So any accurate clarity/transparency concerning the resolution date &/or reimbursement to fund temporary solutions would be welcome.

  • suefitz09 Susan Fitzpatrick (@suefitz09) reported

    @virginmedia why is it you can triple charge me on my bill , refuse me a refund and now you can’t fix my internet for a week . People do not go with this company they are gangsters😡😡😡
