  @virginmedia So you’re telling me that because 3 separate members of your staff have lied and not raised a complaint when I’ve asked, I now need to send you a letter? Are you joking? #VirginMedia

  @virginmedia why are your customer advisors refusing to let people leave? I keep getting hung up on within a few minutes after they've transferred me between each other a few times. This service is shockingly bad 😡

  @virginmedia Had trouble with TV since this morning. Now have just BBC and ITV. Tried phoning but had short message saying they are busy and phone later! Phoned later…same message! What’s going on!?

  @virginmedia 200 down from what I can remember, I'm at work right now so I can't check but the speed isn't the issue. Also, I said "should" because based on his test, it's an above average connection, but in practice, it's wildly inconsistent in terms of ping, packet loss/timing.

  Adam Croft (@Adamcroft1996) reported 19 minutes ago from Pontarddulais, Wales

  @virginmedia He apparently told my neighbour that it will just come on at some point tonight? I don’t really hold a lot of faith with that as he had no idea what the issue was?

  S (@SimonLew87) reported 19 minutes ago from Swansea, Wales

  @virginmedia An engineer came out but still not working properly.

• 
  Hywel (@Hywel79) reported 19 minutes ago from Swansea, Wales

  You'd think when @virginmedia sent out a new router it'd be one that works better than the old one, apparently not though, this ones shite as well. 3 days in a row, three seemingly random bouts of just not working

• 
  Rachel George (@George2Rachel) reported 20 minutes ago from Neath, Wales

  @virginmedia thank you for keeping me on hold for the last 35 minutes then disconnecting me. I really didn’t have anything better to do on a Friday evening. Useless customer service continues

• 
  Simon Rees (@si_rees) reported 25 minutes ago from Margam, Wales

  @virginmedia My wife rang (as account in her name) eventually got through, and an engineer is expected in next few hours as I connection at all now!!Poor/no mobile signal at home as booster box is connected to your router, so even more inconvenience right now.

  @virginmedia my internet just suddenly went down 10mins ago. I was using it. Your test says it cant see the equipment SA1 2PQ

  🧑‍💻 Michał in CS (@michalincs) reported 47 minutes ago from Swansea, Wales

  I cancelled @virginmedia broadband as the price kept increasing, the service wasn't. They offered 75% more speed for 40% less as I was such a "loyal customers for years". Effectively, they admitted they were overcharging me for years hoping that will make me stay! No thank you.

  Véronica (@Veronica_Cino) reported 47 minutes ago from Swansea, Wales

  @virginmedia You guys are the worst literally, your replies are so slow!

• 
  Kevin Child (@KevDocChild) reported 49 minutes ago from Swansea, Wales

  @virginmedia you really are impossible!20+ years as a customer, you invite me to get in touch to discuss my end of contract choices, then provide the lamest excuses when I try but fail! Mmm #timeforachangeofprovider

  Kristian Turner (@Kristian_Turner) reported 51 minutes ago from Swansea, Wales

  @virginmedia Yes and says that the estimated fix time is 22:00 for all three!

• 
  S (@SimonLew87) reported 53 minutes ago from Swansea, Wales

  @virginmedia TBH I’ve restarted the WiFi as per your tips online but the performance is really poor.

• 
  Geraint Reynolds (@Gezz99) reported 56 minutes ago from Aberavon, Wales

  @virginmedia please update your Virgin Mobile automated message which says lines are open until 22:00. I called at 21:05 and connected to a lost & stolen line who couldn't help and also said they couldn't feed back to anyone that the automated message is wrong 🤦

• 
  Shash (@shashpatel23) reported 11 minutes ago

  @virginmedia @virginmedia its not my equipment, its your end. If you know how important it is why does the estimated fix time keep getting later - now its after 6pm. When the working day has finished. Logged on to speak with someone and can't verify me even though im logged into my account!?!

• 
  LGWLGWLGW (@lgwlgwlgw) reported 16 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Done this multiple times. Engineers have confirmed there are regular intermittent network outages in my local area which cause broadband to drop out for up to 10 mins at a time. Not good. Also no priority for anyone at Virgin Media to fix the issue any time soon

• 
  LordCornelius (@LordCornelius2) reported 16 minutes ago

  Anyone else's laptop struggling recently in the heat? The situation isn't helped by @virginmedia broadband being down longer and more often than Angela Rayner's knickers.

  Steve George🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@George66Steve) reported 19 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I've given you the incident number. What's to look into apart from your appalling service. But I've DMd you so feel free to send me more platitudinous bullshit!

  @rokokoprufei @virginmedia I had a slightly more techie issue with my ISP. They lied to me that they supported a feature that they actually didn't, and when i went to use it i found out. I just wanted to set up a Minecraft server for friends to log into without mucking around wiht changing IP addresses

  David Owens (@DavidOw38948049) reported 22 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Tried numerous times to contact you (not a customer) for someone come to my home and remove virgins outside media biz and associated cables as they are unused, not required and unsightly Webb site just ask repeatedly if I am a existing/ joining customer and repeats

  Debzy G 🦅🐦‍⬛🦉 (@brummiedebz) reported 22 minutes ago

  @shashpatel23 @virginmedia @HopeForTo Honestly, it’s a joke! Saying 8:07pm fix time here in Birmingham! If I hadn’t been forced to upgrade my V6 box to 360 software I’d still be able to access the tv channels!! But because 360 relies on wifi connection I can’t get any tv!! 🤯🤯😡😡

  @virginmedia So ALL servicea are currently down in CT17 (TV, Fiber , and phone) They have been down since 1500hrs on July 13th. Not expected back up and running until 1300hrs on 14th July. This is not acceptable. You really are totally inept
