  Laura May (@Laura_May_Ness) reported 50 seconds ago from Manchester, England

  Hi @virginmedia I have just moved into a new apartment where Wi-Fi is included. I have registered as a resident and I have received a pre-contract email but no account number and I am unable to connect to the Internet. Can you help me set things up?

  @virginmedia Hi. Is there a difference between cat 5E & cat6 & cat7 ethernet performance wise on your network 🤔. I'm using cat 6 ethernet from my hub 3.0 to your provided powerline booster . Then from powerline booster to my V6 box. I'm using cat7 ethernet from hub 3.0 to V6 🤔

  @virginmedia I’ve just connected a new router for faster speeds and it isn’t working. I’ve called up and your customer services person who told me contradictory information, put me on hold and then hung up on me.

  Simon Manning 🇪🇺 - SiManM20@mstdn.uk (@SiManM20) reported 7 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @nrgloz @virginmedia Your paying 75% of what we are for 35% of the d/speed there. Neighbour has just switched to Brsk - it’s full #fttp so 1Gb both up/down rather than the 52Mb UL Virgin offer via DOCSIS. £40pm

  Josh B (@JoshuaBurns) reported 8 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia I will. 2nd week in and these kind of issues is worrying considering my partner needs a connection to work from home. How long do I have to switch providers is it 30 days?

  Scott Moseley (@roslers_vest) reported 9 minutes ago from Rochdale, England

  @virginmedia well the woeful service in Heywood continues after “fixing” the fault this morning which resulted in me being unable to work from home the network has dropped again this evening absolutely shocking service

  @virginmedia No point, there is a problem but it shows there aren't any issues in the area.

  Gamepopper (@gamepopper) reported 14 minutes ago from Salford, England

  @virginmedia Oh, my bad. Apparently the wiring outside my house has a fault, someone did come last Monday to work on it,and someone was supposed to work on it for Thursday, but it keeps being pushed back (order ref 55230469).

  Barry Slater (@barrys59) reported 21 minutes ago from Barton upon Irwell, England

  @virginmedia still no service M27. 4th hour! Rubbish!

• 
  JJ (@johnjoeoregan) reported 21 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @stetopping Remember you did the piece late last year about Virgin Media Broadband being out for a day? It's now been down for six days in some parts of Manchester. Six full days and not a word from the company except automated messages.

  Billy Goater (@GoaterBilly) reported 23 minutes ago from Strines, England

  @virginmedia well done, after over 10 years with you, Virgin Media have sunk to the their lowest level of service and support ever. Roll on November and the end of my contract. Appalling, ignorant, clueless, almost as bad as BT.

• 
  Sean (@SeanKeyes) reported 27 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  Same old @virginhelp @virginmedia more important for them to send a driver to personally collect an old Virgin Hub than send the promised engineer to install the new one and optimise the Wi-Fi signal as had been sold to us. 🤷

• 
  Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported 29 minutes ago from Sale, England

  @virginmedia I have phoned you at least 10 times this week. I’ve had a visit from a technician. My Wi-Fi still doesn’t work. I rang up AGAIN in the last half an hour, after waiting for 30 mins to speak to someone, they said they had ‘system issues’ and hung up on me. (1/3)

  inky-paper (@PaperInky) reported 30 minutes ago from Greetland, England

  @virginmedia please can you stop sending an engineer to my address, 1st time he said someone at this address had enquired about providing a service online (no they didn’t) that day I was on a work call, today I was in the shower. Car reg: YT18SXL. He’s just left.

  @LennieThevan @virginmedia That sounds terrible Lennie. If you want to change a plan and save money they go out of their way to be unhelpful. However, if you want to spend more their customers service Is better.

  Gemma ≅ (@SimpaticoGem) reported 35 minutes ago from Walkden, England

  Tell me why with my @virginmedia wifi and my @O2 phone contract, MY WIFI CUTS OUT CONSTANTLY AND I HAVE NO SOGNAL ANYWHERE I GO?! Thought being a customer of you both was supposed to reap massive benefits for me?

• 
  Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported 41 minutes ago from Sale, England

  @virginmedia I was also promised a call back from a manager within 24 hours on a phone call on Friday afternoon. I did not receive this phone call. This is absolutely disgusting and I expect something to be done. I rely on your service for my income as I work from home. (2/3)

  Rachael Stafford (@rachaelstafford) reported 49 minutes ago from Salford, England

  @virginmedia shocking service from you today, I booked an engineer visit for my mum supposed to come today between 12-4 nobody came she’s since called and been told it was a phone call not a visit but still nobody had called. She’s now got to wait till Tuesday for a visit 😠

  Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported 53 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia Don't give me your copy and pasted waffle. You have done nothing to help. You have been an absolute thorn in my side! "I'm so sorry you feel this way" is such an outdated and terrible response from a marketing point of view btw.

  Reece Jordan Doonan, RN (@Lerounxi) reported 54 minutes ago from Salford, England

  @virginmedia can you confirm if there’s active engineer trying to rectify the service outage Manchester (M30). Widespread issues reported according to your service outage on website ?

  Dips (@Ndola19) reported 6 minutes ago

  @moonpeach212 @virginmedia Hey, VM will not sort anything out. I have spent so much time trying to sort out my issue as O2 failed to apply my Volt benefit. VM claims they have done everything while O2 claim they are waiting for VM confirmation. They drag the issue out hoping you will go away

  Woke up to find #virginmedia broadband down again. Very disappointing as I have work to do online at home today. Might be requesting some compensation. I guess it’s time to switch provider.

• 
  Swindon! (@swindon124759) reported 11 minutes ago

  @virginmedia when I press the red button to access sky sports plus I no longer receive an error message. Has my box been successfully updated to fix this issue and I should now expect no further issues from this incident? Thanks @Virgin

  WatchAaron (@AaronLinstead) reported 11 minutes ago

  @virginmedia hello, seem to be having some drops in our broadband over the last 48 hours. I’ve followed all steps to reset, unplug etc but still not working as intended. Any help please? Thank you.

• 
  CC (@TheRISCHAUS) reported 12 minutes ago

  In the bordering 10 years of having @virginmedia broadband I have never experienced over 5 days of broken internet. In the time I have decided to play GTA online. The internet had the audacity to drop DURING A HEIST FINALE. Diabolical.

  @virginmedia Apparently you're still looking into issues in the area... two months on from looking into issues in the area

• 
  Kevin Muldoon (@KevinMuldoon) reported 14 minutes ago

  @virginmedia has to be the worst ISP in the UK. Currently raising a CISAS complaint against them due to how they're terrorirising my elderly mother. May have to take this to small claims too as it's impossible to speak to any UK staff who can resolve anything.

• 
  Justin (@juza_23) reported 21 minutes ago

  Basically spend the past week aside from the weekend without TV or broadband because Virgin Media can’t be arsed to send somebody out to fix the problem. ******* ridiculous.

  Andrea Cook 🧷 💙 (@F3Lollipops) reported 22 minutes ago

  @virginmedia we've had CS2004 on all channels since yesterday. I spent a long time in a live chat last night & was assured it would be fixed by 11pm last night but it's not. This is unacceptable. At what point do you compensate for not providing the service for which you're paid?
