    @virginmedia Stay disconnected should be the tag 1 hour waiting to get through on the phone to get a 24 hour fix to go back the next day to the same no connection They direct you to the web but it does not answer your question My recommendation dont trust a virgin experience no

    Virgin media is dog ****

  • HollyEliStew Holly (@HollyEliStew) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia I would think about using a different delivery service, as these are your products that aren’t reaching your customers. Will @YodelOnline get me parcel on the 4th attempt? Probably not.

  • dnumberwang Dennis (@dnumberwang) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia There was an issue in my area yesterday, it got fixed, now there's another one today, what's going on?

  • DaveFildes82 Dave Fildes (Fylo) (@DaveFildes82) reported from St Helens, England

    @sthelensredMUFC @virginmedia I’d cancel anyway mate we’ve had issues over the years with them but dad sticks with them

  • lorraineayrton Lorraine Ayrton (@lorraineayrton) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia is there a national problem with services or what? I’ve had intermittent internet for 3 weeks now. This is taking the proverbial. Says it’s fine but nothing is happening????

  • dnumberwang Dennis (@dnumberwang) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia It's down again and has gone down both of the last 2 days

  • dnumberwang Dennis (@dnumberwang) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia There was an issue in my area yesterday, it got fixed, now there's another one today and my internet is down, what's going on?

  • MarkPBaines Mark Baines (@MarkPBaines) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia been with you for years and your prices are going up due to your service which frankly is rubbish all goes down so you lose a days pay working from home and you still want it paid for! You’re an absolute joke! Don’t worry though you’ve lost a customer!

  • twolftaz Taz (@twolftaz) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia how do I make a complaint- I am so frustrated right now with your customer service #VirginMedia

  • thegallyfamily Suzanne & Steve (@thegallyfamily) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia up to their tricks again not providing the internet speeds. We on the super-fast broadband tariff and getting speeds of 50 in the same room as the router. Poor service and we being ripped off yet again

  • PHEFC83 PH (@PHEFC83) reported from Liverpool, England

    @TonyhEFC @mickwickjunior @virginmedia Phoned them, she messed around with settings and ****. Back to 100mb earlier. Still swerving them though. Been shite for about 2 weeks

  • s0phiee_xx Sophie (@s0phiee_xx) reported

    @virginmedia I called back as the messaging was not working and no one contacted me from it. I’m not even surprised at this point but yet again I’ve been hung up on. Absolute worst customer service I’ve experienced.

  • AMACACIO ANGELA MARTINEZ ACAC (@AMACACIO) reported

    @virginmedia Can you confirm you have not received her letter?? I mean, she has already been on the phone to you, sent you a letter, now you are asking her to send another one? How much does it take to exercise your rights when you are a VM customer? Frustrating and pathetic, really....

  • Cdogsoup Conchuir MacGiolla Espaig (@Cdogsoup) reported

    @virginmedia is there anybody working today????? I’m having problems with my smart devices connecting to my broadband/WiFi

  • manishchristie Manish Christi (@manishchristie) reported

    @virginmedia 😒because Virgin's chat, phone and postal communications are poor I find tweets instant

  • redhousemoor Bayman (@redhousemoor) reported

    @virginmedia Ta but I think VM will be losing a customer when I find an alternative. A reliable slow connection is better than a haphazard fast connection. Reliability and poor customer service are the issues.

  • RebekahNicol Bekah (@RebekahNicol) reported

    @virginmedia Yes and there are no issues

  • soominsgf ً (@soominsgf) reported

    @virginmedia YOUR WIFI IS SO BAD IT MAKES ME WANT TO K/\/\$. FIX IT IM TRYING TO WATCH ENDING AGAIN

  • lm13t Lewis Lambert (@lm13t) reported

    @virginmedia any issues in S8 area? Just lost broadband and the self test reports a problem, however the option is ‘book an engineer’

  • RonaldJ61016789 Quintessential Englishman (@RonaldJ61016789) reported

    @dannywoodward2 Aaw, thank you for the offer. I used Virgin for several years- was originally with Cable & Wireless which of course became Virgin Media. I like virgin media because they reminded a customer of an imminent payment required but allowed you thru lack of funds to pay a few days late.

  • troublesgone trouble (@troublesgone) reported

    @virginmedia my WiFi is down again in the SE9 area !! Can you let me know what’s going on .. kids can’t get online for lessons !!
