    @virginmedia Hi there. Whenever we go to the iPlayer app it crashes the whole Virgin system which has to be turned off and on again. Been like that for 24 hours. Can you help please?

    @virginmedia I have received a virtual engineer call this morning. Apparently there is an issue in the area. There is no notification on the app to say this though.

    Fancy doing anything about shockingly slow broadband speeds in some rural Tier 4 areas? Video chat for elderly residents in these areas during Christmas should be a given not a luck. @bt_uk @virginmedia @SkyUK . #loneliness #tier4 #christmascancelled

    @virginmedia can you have someone look at CNBC 613, seems to have a problem with the ticker. (Also, when can we get cnbc and cnn in HD).

  • LongshanksE10
    Richard Astley (@LongshanksE10) reported from Bishop's Stortford, England

    @virginmedia Think the menu options are slightly different on the 360 software but I found network diagnostics and signal quality is “Good” and connection speed is “high”. Does that help?

  • bellinghman
    Alan Bellingham (@bellinghman) reported from Royston, England

    Dear @virginmedia - your web page doesn't think that your services are available on my postcode. Should I cancel my account? I was hoping to change my package

  • Chezzyp68
    Cheron Phillips🇧🇧 (@Chezzyp68) reported from Stansted Mountfitchet, England

    @virginmedia That I still need to have an engineer attend. I keep getting mixed messages! Had to book one for next Saturday. Potentially that could be 2 weeks without a full service

    @ChrisOnTheBus @virginmedia *sigh* I’m not a customer and have never used them. I install things for clients.

    @virginmedia That’s not what I asked. I asked where I can return your box to. You don’t provide a service to my address. I’ve screenshot this non-response in case you try and charge me for non-return.

    @Virgin internet is absolutely shocking and their customer support is even worse #VirginMedia #Disgraceful #customerservice

    @virginmedia I’ve spoken to someone who had previously chased this for me and he is still waiting on confirmation of change to residential property. He did say that once confirmed there could be another two weeks before installation. Will I be compensated for lack of service?

    @skirglepips @gayxchange04 @virginmedia @CherylHoleQueen It’s probably good to know that the xfactor is so produced that the good and the bad singers are often head hunted and told what to sing for good tv

    @virginmedia I take it the error message this channel is not authorised and to contact yous is part of the issue effecting TV services?
