    @PhelanHill @bt_uk @virginmedia If it works it's brilliant but if it doesn't @virginmedia 's Customer Service is woeful in my experience (and @GBRChris_A 's) Currently even with all the people working at home it is good @ 200 Mbps !

    @virginmedia Down again! Your service is a shambles at the moment

  • HollySquirrel Kim Marie Pike (@HollySquirrel) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia We need this sorting, as there are 3 of us working from home, involving video meetings. How do we get in touch with you to sort our services out? Our TIVo box is also slow to respond and on-demand isn’t working, due to internet problems. Help. Now. Please.

  • inmilla68 Inmita Medina (@inmilla68) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia Hi there. Never got my 5 GB SIM card as stated in my contract. Been waiting for over a month and never got it! Impossible to get through customer services to speak to a human...

  • samtomkins samtomkins (@samtomkins) reported from Henley-on-Thames, England

    @virginmedia how do I speak to someone about my mobile phone. I haven’t been able to swap my sim as my sim port is broken, so today you have cut me off, despite me still paying bills!!!

  • SpaWellbeing Spa Wellbeing (@SpaWellbeing) reported from Wokingham, England

    What’s wrong with Virgin Media? Unable to access my emails for several days now. Virgin say they’re working on it but the problem’s still not sorted. Is anyone else suffering this acute inconvenience?

  • boffbowsh Paul Bowsher (@boffbowsh) reported from Wokingham, England

    Virgin Media down again today. Getting increasingly tempted by FTTPoD.

  • bmm1979 Becky (@bmm1979) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia hi, I’m trying to contact you regarding a mobile phone contract I wish to cancel, but can’t get through by phone and the chat function won’t pick up my problem

  • inmilla68 Inmita Medina (@inmilla68) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia 1hour waiting the first time and disconnected. This is the second time, still on the phone and waiting 55min. It is pretty much the whole day wasted trying to talk to customer services. Can you please help?

  • jackie_morrall Jackie morrall (@jackie_morrall) reported

    @virginmedia Has been off and on for days, to report it for discount it just doesn’t connect or rings out then cuts off, bit bad considering how nuch we pay

  • actechuk Andy Collinson (@actechuk) reported

    @virginmedia @CloudflareRadar Just reading the email you sent me as a business customer of yours to explain what happened today... Oh wait... NOTHING AT ALL! Shocker. My business will be going elsewhere

  • Idkikyerdug Sir Dan (@Idkikyerdug) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks Virgin. However, I identified and resolved the issue for myself before anything public was released. Hard to believe my broadband only 350mb service needed to rise £7pm and then up to £54 in June when my "deal" expires.

  • BendyBen999 Ben (@BendyBen999) reported

    @virginmedia We assume you will be refunding all affected customers. I would lodge an outage on your app but that’s screwed too.

  • CostaBuddie Jim Reid 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇪🇺 🇾🇪 (@CostaBuddie) reported

    Dear @virginmedia is there any chance of you providing me with a half-decent Internet service any time soon?

  • Mr_Olorunfemi Oga Richard (@Mr_Olorunfemi) reported

    @virginmedia The harm you caused me today can never be undone. I am pained!

    @TheClaymoreNTTV @virginmedia Aye we had a mad one today we were all having problems with virgin, stream was fine but couldn’t read any chat and discord keep kicking us off

    @RodHardpan @virginmedia Never trust a hippie

  • Dixeyroyal Kevin Dix (@Dixeyroyal) reported

    @keiranatharmony @virginmedia @bt_uk I will be doing the same, fed up with Virgin lack of service, and their constant prices rises that are way above inflation, enough is enough now, bye bye Virgin
