  • bludav_andrew 👽 🇺🇦 ☮️ (@bludav_andrew) reported from Manchester, England

    I can’t believe @virginmedia can’t send out an engineer to fix my internet until Wednesday! (My birthday) I will miss out on the season finale event of Fortnite and tank my mobile data until then, plus have to go in the office to work! 🙃😢

    @O2 @virginmedia @Curlykidlife Hi Virgin Media. Have just moved my sim over to O2 and as an existing VM customer applied for my free Volt upgrade. O2 have doubled my mobile data and you have upgraded my broadband. However you have now almost doubled my monthly payment. VM customer service cannot help ?!

  • CliveCrossley83 Clive Crossley (@CliveCrossley83) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia terrible service!! have been waiting for a response to our request to cancel services since yesterday lunchtime and unable to get through on the phone after waiting over 45 mins Internet constantly going off!!! ridiculous

  • PIL0TPEDR0 Pete Best (Pil0t Pedr0) (@PIL0TPEDR0) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Yet again an intermittent service in Area 20 BL1 2 this has now gone beyond a joke, paying for a service and not getting it

  • anthony_murphy1 Anthony Murphy (@anthony_murphy1) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia is there a way for me to find out if my phone number has been leaked or involved in any form of data breach as I've been getting daily phone calls from people pretending to be you? Never anyone else so just intrigued.

  • els_photographs Emma L Strawbridge 📷🍓🎮🏳️‍🌈 (@els_photographs) reported from Bury, England

    @virginmedia the connection issues better be sorted by tomorrow morning, some of us need to work

  • PIL0TPEDR0 Pete Best (Pil0t Pedr0) (@PIL0TPEDR0) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Still having problems there is a fault in the area, supposed to be fixed by 16:25 today, over 24 hours without Internet is a joke

  • laurenpoche Lauren🥃🎓📖 (@laurenpoche) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia no TV or internet all day. Even my phone internet been playing up, hardly had that as I'm on 02, which you are partnered with. 10am tomorrow it says to be fixed now, no other updates on the issue or help. Very poor.

  • RebeccaHRM Rebecca Westaway (@RebeccaHRM) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia Resolved overnight but would have appreciated VM acknowledging the interruption to service in the area. Saves everyone a great deal of time and mobile data

  • GeoffEvansTutor Geoffrey Evans (@GeoffEvansTutor) reported from Bury, England

    Broadband DOWN two days last week then on for a day then OFF Today @virginmedia working from home on Monday in BL9- not good enough for what we pay!!!! #nothappy

  • Natterback Mrs Jordan -Johnson (@Natterback) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia It's another intermittent problem

  • MichaelAdamsUk Michael Adams (@MichaelAdamsUk) reported from Manchester, England

    @putasinghonit @virginmedia Reminds me of when Vodafone sold my mum an iPhone for me on the promise it had good coverage in our area and upon discovering the signal was appalling the guy on the other side of the phone said “well you won’t live in that house forever”. No I’m just going to move for 4G!

  • harness68 harness68 (@harness68) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia once again your connection speed is shockingly slow. Not sure why I pay for m600 lucky to get 50mb. To make things worse your chat never respondes and the phone is a joke. 25 years of taking my money and the service is getting worse. Think I will move to #BT

  • ItzM_K MK (@ItzM_K) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia hi you seriously have the worst website, after login most of the time I just see old bills and keep getting bad request error. Are you even aware of that?

  • Chrissanders13 Chris Sanders (@Chrissanders13) reported

    Yet again I’ve been on the phone to @virginmedia for about an hour - still can’t help me and now the tv doesn’t work !!! Time to cancel the contract and go back to sky I think - absolutely horrendous installation process and customer support !!

  • Waynebe66 Paul Wayne (@Waynebe66) reported

    @virginmedia It came on but it’s down again #virginmediadown

  • gemgemw Gem (@gemgemw) reported

    @virginmedia @SteveHolt_ Fab customer service I see. No offer to help look for a solution!!!

  • RJTWhitfield Rowan JT Whitfield (@RJTWhitfield) reported

    @virginmedia what is going on with your internet service? From other tweets on here it’s obvious something is wrong but I’ve called 5 times and I’m under the impression I’m not being told the truth. One person actually told me “don’t worry about it” I need the internet for works

  • taylorcowlin Taylor (@taylorcowlin) reported

    @virginmedia This link doesn’t help me at all I’ve been through all that... plus it doesn’t let me book visits? I’m not sure about replacing equipment I need a technician to come and have a look to see what the problem is.

  • 4Viewers 4Viewers (@4Viewers) reported

    @dinogoldie Hi, we need to know who provides the signal so we take a look into this issue - is your signal provider Sky, Virgin Media, Freeview, Freesat etc? #B99

  • Annabannana5 Anna Viola (@Annabannana5) reported

    @virginmedia we are still waiting for WiFi to be switched back on....24-48 hours you said, it’s now 72 hours. Help?

  • ant_917 Anthony (@ant_917) reported

    @virginmedia Just spent 45 minutes again, been cut off when passed through the customer relations team. This is shocking.

  • TheRealWilbo Wilbo (@TheRealWilbo) reported

    @virginmedia I’m slowly losing the will to live with my service from you, I posted a fault on your website 4 weeks ago, not even got a response so far !! I’m on the phone now and still waiting to speak to someone to be fair it is only 40 mins so far but I’m hopeful😟

  • pippwill pipped (@pippwill) reported

    @virginmedia Back on but what was the problem?
