  @virginmedia Sorry are you not reading what I am saying? Three calls in the past 90 minutes and still they either don't understand what I'm saying or refuse to take a complaint!

• 
  James Hope (@gingerjames1990) reported 13 minutes ago from Stoke-on-Trent, England

  @virginmedia Again have you read anything iv said????? THREE CALLS to your customer services and all connected to off shore people who have either not got a clue what a complaint is or refused to log one for me! Instead of repeating yourself sort it out! @Ofcom #poorcustomerservice

  Anthony Hibbs (@HibbsA) reported 20 minutes ago from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England

  @Paulout @BT @virginmedia I can’t believe how bad BT have been over this. Advisors just seem to want to keep you talking even after taking 20+ mins to get through and then do nothing for you. Proper fed up 🙁

  Sophie Bridgett (@sophiebridgett) reported 22 minutes ago from Stoke-on-Trent, England

  @virginmedia Still terrible. I've followed the instructions once signed in online however consistently dipping. :(

  Les Chaplin (@LesChaplin) reported 23 minutes ago from Stoke-on-Trent, England

  @virginmedia Yes absolutely, soon as we landed I got the message saying I was in Greece and could use my mobile exactly the same as in the UK. At no point did it say to check for other countries in case they stole my network! I had been on the same network all week from 26th August

  sean cosgrove (@mymodlifecrisis) reported 35 minutes ago from Congleton, England

  @virginmedia apparently I have to be at my dads house. Well that would be a long shot as I live 20 miles away and have to work. So they WONT help a 78 year old deaf man. Richard Branson. You’ll be 78 one day and no ****** will help you.

  Andy Picken (@andyvic7) reported 37 minutes ago from Stoke-on-Trent, England

  @virginmedia just had the misfortune to speak to the rudest person ever whilst trying to sort out my abysmal connection speed when she put the phone down on me after a 20 minute wait!!

  J9PVFC (@J9PVFC) reported 39 minutes ago from Stoke-on-Trent, England

  @virginmedia recently downgraded my broadband package, but my Volt package hasn’t been reapplied to my account. Can you help as O2 show it’s active, but no options on your help site that direct me to someone to fix.

• 
  James Hope (@gingerjames1990) reported 44 minutes ago from Stoke-on-Trent, England

  @reddersmufc @Ofcom @virginmedia Virgin Media have gone down massively! The amount they charge doesn't represent the customer experience at all!

• 
  Ian Morris (@ianmorris04) reported 47 minutes ago from Checkley, England

  @JimBrowning11 @virginmedia @KolkataPolice They are also targeting sky customers, was seeing my mum phone went internet, today my house phone, same ****. Be careful people.

  Iwan Evans (@iwanevans) reported 52 minutes ago from Congleton, England

  @virginmedia Almost like you didn't read my original message... Your stock answer STILL doesn't ring true, just repeating the phrase I quoted in my original message to me again doesn't help one little bit

• 
  James Hope (@gingerjames1990) reported 55 minutes ago from Stoke-on-Trent, England

  @Ofcom how the hell can @virginmedia seriously refuse to allow customers to raise a complaint??? This is bloody awful!!!!!!! Two calls and both calls refuse to allow me to raise a formal complaint!!! Both call takers clearly in a different country and have issues understanding

• 
  Andy Picken (@andyvic7) reported 58 minutes ago from Stoke-on-Trent, England

  @drummerwhitey @northernsky67 @virginmedia Steve it was a last resort for me but other avenues were fruitless, I ended up getting a visit from an engineer , a booster and a reduction in my tariff after I told them I’d leave , normal customer service is dreadful, keep on pushing them

• 
  Barry Williams (@BarryWi32733397) reported 59 minutes ago from Hixon, England

  @staffsbrewery @unicom @openreach I walked away from BT Infinity in my Hixon village as soon as Virgin Media was available the Service from BT was not good to say the least and i safe money with VM compared to my monthly charges from BT and Sky

  @Cassetteboy @virginmedia Imagine being that crap a company that you don't realise the damage you do to @virginmedia's reputation when you piss off someone with 77k Twitter followers.

  Hey @virginmedia given that your website is full of broken and circular links making it impossible to do anything, and your chat service just fails, how do I actually talk to someone?
