    @SilentMugger @virginmedia It's been over 24 hours now and I've now been told it will be 10am tomorrow. I'm in North London, not in the wilderness. Its shocking that there's no Internet in the city. Maybe there service is getting worse.

    John Sanderson (@SanderjoJohn) reported from Barnet, England

    @MartinSLewis @bbc5live Had replacement windows from a local company 18 months ago and they were excellent but I will tell you the worst people I have ever dealt with - Virgin Media, even worse than British Gas used to be.

    @Bazza_68 @virginmedia Up. Then down again. That’s the 4th time today.

    @virginmedia I think @YodelOnline needs a good kick up the behind for being super late and not even letting the customer know! Not a great start so far #newcustomer

    Big E (@lutonmagoo) reported from Caddington, England

    @virginmedia for the 3rd time today my broadband won’t work because my modem keeps needing rebooting and is crap I need a new one but can’t get through to anyone to speak to this is been going on weeks now, absolute terrible service

  • PaulswainDJ
    Paul Swain (@PaulswainDJ) reported from Kings Langley, England

    @virginmedia I’ve given up for tonight. I’m struggling to deal with a company that has lied on record and taken money wrongfully out of my account. @MartinSLewis help!

  • PaulswainDJ
    Paul Swain (@PaulswainDJ) reported from Kings Langley, England

    @virginmedia This is boring. I’ll reach out to third parties to resolve my account issue.

    @virginmedia @NatGeoUK "We hope to fix this by 25 January at 16:00" But what's this? Do you really imagine a world where people don't have to work and can stand all your frequent service disruptions? #daylight_robbery

    Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for trying. Three Exec Dept people in the last 10 days promised to call me back after initial calls - none have. I have put it all in an e-mail against what I believe is my reference number. I want the mobile internet service you've arranged to work.

    @virginmedia @LutzSchueler please help me here i am an O2 monthly paying customer , I’ve had a virgin email address for over 23 years and they just closed it no notice , or warnings and your team hides behind a policy that didn’t exist when i first got my virgin email address

    Dear @virginmedia & @VirginMediaCC A day to forget, wasn’t it? All day problems with my internet connections. Thousands of people affected. In my case, I needed the internet to work and it seems like that the issue was resolved this afternoon. How can I claim compensation?

    @virginmedia Hi. My broadband has been down since last night in the L18 area. I've just checked the service status and it's saying 3 days to fix. Is that correct?

  • Coxy_Girl_
    Juniper Pearl (@Coxy_Girl_) reported

    @yoffey @virginmedia Call cut out. Got through later without an hour long wait. Issue identified but also that our TV box was old and needed updating. New box due tomorrow, TV issue did resolve itself over night.

  • lelly401
    LA Saw OASIS! 🧡 🎶 (@lelly401) reported

    @sme30 @virginmedia @NetflixUK Bloody hell. Would have been easier to cancel Netflix! 🤦 Maybe try and upgrade on ur box and see if Netflix now comes as standard with upgrades.... Then cancel the stand alone one? 😬🤷

  • Seanster1984
    Sean Milroy (@Seanster1984) reported

    @virginmedia why are you telling people to get a booster after upgrading to 360 when a box is connected to its router through Ethernet cable? Ethernet connection is better. Wi-Fi is a luxury. People are paying over odds for service but you want them to pay more? Get a grip!!

    AdamB® (@OfficialAdamB) reported

    @mobily_uk @virginmedia It's for this Amazing service u get that's never changed since you first joined just 1 massive scam. F*****g joke of a company and everyone needs to start looking else we're especially Internet wise there is far better and cheaper and most probably fix price.

  • 1836golftour
    1836golf tour (@1836golftour) reported

    @virginmedia GO **** yourselves Virgin Media. Roll on July 27th 2026 when I will be free from you ******* unsympathetic CNUTS. I never thought in a million years that I would go back to SKY or a firestick but you have made that decision so much easier. Good ******* riddance.

    James Munro (@eripley8) reported

    @virginmedia @mobily_uk Can you drop the smiling emoji Virgin. It really is absurdly patronising and shows that you're just laughing at us rather than genuinely trying to help

  • RichTigheBrady
    Rich Brady (@RichTigheBrady) reported

    It’s been 6 weeks since our internet @virginmedia has stopped working so it’s time to spend several days getting through to explain it doesn’t work, then hearing no one can come round for several days to fix it! Total shambles, 7 outages and 6 visits in 8 months. Always breaks!

    iPaulTweeting (@iPaulTweeting) reported

    Here’s an idea @virginmedia if the question your bots are asking have no relevance to the question you asked perhaps one of the options presented could be ‘talk to a human’? Also, although I’m not really that bothered that your support staff are not English please note that it does not aid understanding
