  @virginmedia I also play Destiny 2. I thought it may have been their servers but my boyfriend doesn't have the issue.

• 
  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 3 minutes ago from St Helens, England

  @virginmedia Nobody can help me, they just keep asking for patience. They’ve had since august to fix it. It’s unacceptable.

  Tom Rushton (@tomrushton88) reported 10 minutes ago from Haydock, England

  @virginmedia Don't use this company its disgusting and disappointing the way they treat customers. Been trying to sort my contract out for 3 months now while they rob my money, create contracts that I've not agreed to and cancel complaints that I've raised.

  Sort your awful Wi-Fi out @virginmedia

  Capitã Nat (@NatashaVic) reported 14 minutes ago from Liverpool, England

  @virginmedia Can I speak to a human, please? It’s impossible to speak to anyone here. I paid for my bill via bank transfer more than a week ago and it hasn’t been registered. Phone service is not recognising my password and I can’t find a live chat.

  @virginmedia what have you done to the Sky TV app - its constantly buffering and showing error messages. Just awful service. Please can you get this sorted ASAP please.

  Anne McCormack (@1AnneMcCormack) reported 22 minutes ago from Billinge Chapel End, England

  @virginmedia I tell them to ring 999 or 0151 709 6010 if they want to report a crime. They hang up but they sound South Asian and their English is poor. I worry about other oaps being conned. Good luck chasing them.

• 
  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 24 minutes ago from St Helens, England

  @virginmedia Yes, this has been going on now for months. Was just on to your team to cancel, they hung up on me. I’ve never known a more woeful service. They are quick enough to take payment every month for a service I’m not getting.

• 
  Adam (@agarnett) reported 27 minutes ago from Wigan, England

  @virginmedia Is there any way to tell if there are signal issues in your area? This says i should get 4g indoors and outdoors, i dont though i can barely access mobile internet from my house. Last 3 months have been awful

• 
  Jack Kelly (@realjackoh187) reported 32 minutes ago from Widnes, England

  @virginmedia So I had loss of service but not complete even tho the service I had wasn't enough to even complete a 15 minute online training. Great. Even though you only have cold water, would you still get a bath? Nah don't think you would

  Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported 33 minutes ago from Eccleston, England

  @virginmedia Thanks. Very frustrating and time consuming. Spent whole afternoon trying to sort it. Twitter not really the best way to resolve issues especially with an 82 year old.

• 
  Rebekah Jones (@RebekahP1nk) reported 37 minutes ago from Prenton, England

  @virginmedia soooo what's wrong this time?? You are just about up the cost to astronomical amounts and now the broadband goes down again ..

• 
  Lesley Murray (@les_murray71) reported 41 minutes ago from Wallasey, England

  @virginmedia Yes got the update thanks, but not helpful receiving texts to say issue resolved, services been off for 14 hours now, any background to the issue?

• 
  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 41 minutes ago from St Helens, England

  Day 42 of no service from @virginmedia. Engineer meant to be coming again today, think I’ve more chance of a unicorn showing up to be fair. 🦄

  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 51 minutes ago from St Helens, England

  @virginmedia 38 days after the repull should’ve been done? You think that’s good customer service?

• 
  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 51 minutes ago from St Helens, England

  @virginmedia It’s to our address, we need a full repull and was told it would be done within 48hrs. This issue has been going on for months, they were just telling me to reboot the hub.

• 
  Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported 51 minutes ago from Eccleston, England

  @VirginMedia Received message. Now not accepting my email address. I have one only. My problem is with the remote control which is activated by pressing 2 buttons when they light up. Have had nothing but trouble with one remote for one TV. Your communication us not helpful.

• 
  Lindz Devine (@LindzDDub) reported 58 minutes ago from Wigan, England

  @virginmedia I have to say your Internet connection is ridiculous... for months on end, it's been shocking. I'm sick and tired of resetting my hub, I shouldn't be having this issue. Never had so much issue for the years I've had you and now, the past 6 months, I'm paying monies…

  murf (@JohnMurphy9172) reported 59 minutes ago from Liverpool, England

  @virginmedia Just managed to get hold of someone, and apparently after over 10 years of no problems I now need WiFi boosters at an extra cost to myself all of a sudden, they couldn't tell me why just trying to squeeze more money out of me

It remains on Freeview (for now) but is said to be suffering financial problems.

  Why can't/wont either RTÉ or Virgin Media cover some of the Irish festivals with a live feed similar to Glastonbury? It's a damn shame.
