  Smyth Harper 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇺🇦☘️ (@sharper76) reported 5 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @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.

  Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported 6 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)

  @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

  Smyth Harper 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇺🇦☘️ (@sharper76) reported 14 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia In the orders and appointments section it says there are none. The text I have received confirming the appointment and threatening me with a £25 fine is different to the one offered to me by your customer services.

  UtilitaRian 🔶 (@SoloUtilitaRian) reported 19 minutes ago from Bolton, England

  With the intro of new dedicated Gigabit lines in my street I can't wait to switch over and leave Virgin Media for good. 3x internet has gone down this week and I just called VM. The systems there are down and gotta call back in 3hrs..... useless

  Alec Holloway (@HollowayAlec) reported 22 minutes ago from Stretford, England

  @virginmedia is unbelievable that our Internet is so poor, trying to contact someone via phone on numerous occasions waiting for over 45 minutes to speak with someone. Still haven't been able to get through to anyone.

• 
  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 26 minutes ago from Atherton, England

  @virginmedia Could the problems in the area have caused damage to the equipment? As it was working fine before. Do I get compensation for all this time as the earliest appointment is Friday 14th?

  Nathan (@nathangreen101) reported 28 minutes ago from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

  Hi @virginmedia is there a particular reason your engineers phone to say they are here but never actually turn up?

  (Test) Is anyone experiencing a virgin media Internet outage in M6?

  @virginmedia I've been a customer for 10 years. Is this how your treat your loyal customers?

• 
  GLENN (@gbmcfc) reported 31 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia Well you find I'm cancelling my contract with yourselves, hope you go bust, your customer service team is a shambolic embarrasment. Loyalty works both ways.

  @Shredda @virginmedia Oh damn, that's peak. Might just be a coincidence then 🤔

  SLT4K 👨🏻‍💻 🇬🇧 (@Slt4K) reported 34 minutes ago from Urmston, England

  @virginmedia / Super disappointed after calling to renew my contract and as an existing customer you can’t offer anything half as good as a new customer. Shocking customer retention strategy 🤯

  Ray Morgan. NHS💙🇺🇦 (@Rayzor74) reported 56 minutes ago from Stockport, England

  Good start to the day with @virginmedia informing me my monthly bill is increasing by £15/month and I have until the 17th of April to decide on my options. That is £180 annually. Having been firstly a Nynex customer and a Virgin customer since the takeover think it may be time

  @virginmedia Your service is disgraceful. I joined less than a month ago and my internet has already failed twice. 1st time it was down for 3 days, now it’s been 2 days and could be a week. I want to leave your awful service, but you won’t let me. This is not what was promised!

  @MichelleBeckett Truly awful. I worked in customer services for a very long time and @virginmedia just needs to get better. It's never about the profits, it's what you're doing for the customer. Put yourself in Michelle's shoes. How would YOU like to be treated like this?! I'm sorry Michelle.

  @virginmedia why is your Comms so rubbish? There's an outage in the area, confirmed on the website, but I keep getting texts saying it's fixed. 8 texts in the last 2 mins too. But everything is still off and your site still says there's an outage.
