  Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported 7 minutes ago from Croydon, England

  Time to ditch @vmbusiness I think, unreliable service & weak support

• 
  Chris 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 (@strutcakes) reported 14 minutes ago from Lambeth, England

  Called Virgin Media to complain about the TV box not working and to get it removed from my package. Somehow ended up singing another 18 month contract with the TV box included but at a reduced price. Not ideal but not horrendous.

  @virginmedia Never had we have such a terrible Internet service. Absolutely NEVER. "Can't find server.", for whatever page we want, day after day. Then it finds the server; next minute - puff! Gone! Absolutely abysmal.

  @Marcroy_Smith @virginmedia Same here and customer service not available either

  Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported 28 minutes ago from Croydon, England

  @redheadlass1402 @virginmedia We’ve got the business service but it’s no better. They don’t seem to have any proactive monitoring or fault prevention and pretty much don’t care. They have a 3 hour service level that passed 12 hours ago, totally useless bunch of money-grabbers

  Mark 🌈🏳️‍🌈 (@markselondon) reported 31 minutes ago from Blackheath, England

  @virginmedia Broadband down again this morning in SE London, got through to customer services and they advised the outage expected to be fixed by 12th April. No compensation offered and I would have to pay a penalty to cancel my contract.

  @virginmedia It obviously is an area issue as we have an area WhatsApp group and everyone’s internet is down: but I don’t have time to call as I have appointments all afternoon and knowi will be stuck in a queue for an hour minimum. Can you email to alert them to the issue???

• 
  Mark (@markrhorney) reported 33 minutes ago from Lambeth, England

  @virginmedia again really???? I just signed up to a flipping contract and broadband goes down again! Worst mistake. Should have went with another provider. My Plex and my security system is down. Thanks for nothing virgin. 🤬🤬🤬

  #TeamParkinsons Paul (@PJacksonClark) reported 34 minutes ago from Bromley, England

  @virginmedia Thanks KF for your speedy reply. But since "Frankie Bot" and I started chatting three hours ago via customer service chat I've been left waiting. Is that as good as it gets?

• 
  Andrew Battle (@andy_s_battle) reported 35 minutes ago from East Ham, England

  @virginmedia But cutting people off to enforce this is unethical, besides no previous communication has indicated this and the solution is not convenient with where they want to do this and no suggestion to reposition my hub

• 
  Jane Common (@JaneCommon) reported 35 minutes ago from Camberwell, England

  @virginmedia hi, internet down in se5. A bit of a disaster for me as I have so much work on. Could you ask someone to check it?

• 
  Mitzy (@mihaialaci) reported 36 minutes ago from Poplar, England

  @virginmedia They escalated my complaint,but looks like the package is not available to us.When my contact expires will definitely looking at other options as I don’t trust Virgin Media anymore

• 
  Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported 41 minutes ago from Croydon, England

  @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness Ah, so when there will be nothing to do or see you will become interested, is that the customer service ethos at VMB? Staggering, but not surprising

• 
  Kay Bak (@kaybaka) reported 42 minutes ago from Camberwell, England

  @Barclays Why do I keep getting Error Code: 30915?? I’ve been trying to log into my acct for a LONG time now! Bcoz of not having access to my acct @virginmedia have been stealing DD even though I no longer have contract/subscription with them. Pls fix this b4 more money is taken!

  DragonFish 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇮🇹 (@discobabe76) reported 43 minutes ago from Sutton at Hone, England

  @virginmedia No as I look after an elderly lady with parkinsons on Thursdays which means she doesn't get to get out of the house if I don't see her. So it's booked in for Friday. What help doninhave till then? Or reimbursement? I'm free every day after 3pm & I'm free Tuesday all day

• 
  Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported 45 minutes ago from Croydon, England

  There’s a new Hitron Chita paperweight from @vmbusiness @vmbusinesshelp - it’s expensive but the only thing it can do without going out of service every few minutes

  Befitat50 (@befitat50) reported 46 minutes ago from Lambeth, England

  @virginmedia what’s going on again with this internet at sw4? You just can’t fix a problem? Please don’t come up with your usual excuses and fix itttttt..

• 
  Claire Champion (@Champion3Claire) reported 52 minutes ago from Bromley, England

  @virginmedia I think you will have to agree this is an unacceptably long time for the repair as it’s already been going on for days?? “There's a TV issue in xxx. Thanks for your patience while we work to fix things as quick as we can. We hope to fix this by 14 March at 16:00”

• 
  Befitat50 (@befitat50) reported 54 minutes ago from Camberwell, England

  @virginmedia Still bad this morning and seems as if no one from your side @virginmedia cares about it at all.. What should I do? Leave you guys..

  @seanaustin1985 @Johnty14 @virginmedia I remember phone VM tech support and the poor person on the other end of the phone didn't know an awful lot I ended up having to tell them what needed to be done I'm not with VM anymore thank god

  Max Pallas (@SuddenLife) reported 8 minutes ago

  @gloucesterglass @virginmedia Mobile phone signal in Tewkesbury is virtually non existent. I can’t send SMS text inside my home, there no 5G, and I get a weak 4G on Tewkesbury bypass. Fortunately, I have good WiFi, YouFibre 900mb for £24 monthly.

  @robert_grieve @virginmedia Yup Terrible customer service Seems to be once they have you signed up they no longer give a ****

  @Graelwyn So many people have had issues with virgin media. Cancelling was a nightmare for my parents.very bad company

• 
  GW (@GGWilliams72) reported 11 minutes ago

  @cdavo25 @virginmedia I had Stream Box and Broadband set up yesterday. Neither working today, tried Cust Serv’s on hold over 45 mins and still no answer! These people are as garbage as their services, spend your money elsewhere. I’m going back to @SkyUK 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

• 
  Martin Whelan (@mairtinofaolain) reported 18 minutes ago

  @PaulOBrienKil @VirginMediaNews @VirginMediaIE Currently swapping to Digiweb for broadband. Customer service seems to be their thing. A sales rep from Eir annoyed me with his pushiness, and Virgin Media ain't that great a price anymore

• 
  Frankie Smith (@frankiesmith74) reported 22 minutes ago

  @virginmedia please can someone phone me urgently to deal with the entirely unacceptable service I am receiving from your home mover team. A failed installation on Wednesday and no engineers turning up yesterday or today despite being promised! I can’t get through on the phone

• 
  Declan Carty (@declancarty) reported 25 minutes ago

  @IrishTimes Perhaps someone like the excellent Patrick Freyne might investigate why, after all these YEARS, Sky subscribers in the ROI cannot get ITV channels, whilst Virgin Media customers have no probs in doing so. Is it still supposed to be a ‘rights’ issue ????

• 
  Frankie Smith (@frankiesmith74) reported 25 minutes ago

  @virginmedia you have failed to install broadband at my new property as part of home move service. I have been promised engineers will attend each day for last 3 days - no sign! I’ve asked for updates - nothing! I’ve been told I’ll be contacted by Area Manager - nothing! Terrible

  Expanse Consulting Ltd (@ExpanseCon) reported 25 minutes ago

  @MikeScheider_ Not a vodafone issue. Looks like a core switch failure, optical cross-connect fault or other fault inside one of the central carrier-neutral hubs. It has dropped interconnection across multiple fixed ISPs (Virgin Media, Eir, Siro, NBI) simultaneously.
