  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 my broadband was “delivered” today by Yodel but the package is no where to be seen and wasn’t attempted (I’ve been in all day waiting). I can’t get any help from them, please help!! 😭

  @SkyUK My Sky package is slowly edging up. Some new customer deals from a couple of years ago have worsened discounts but... I'm still around £30 a month better off than when I was with Virgin Media. Never going back.

  @virginmedia If that was the only issue than yes that would be the logical next step. But as you’ll see from the previous tweets and email sent on Wednesday it isn’t. All the issues need dealing with in the round or otherwise I’ll have to cancel and go back to sky.

  @virginmedia Unbelievable, you've sent me a dongle to connect a landline too the broadband on the 6th , so the phone line isnt going to work, though not much help on 150 as they abruptly cut you off. Website is also down.

  Wow @virginmedia your services have gone off thu no fault of mine yet I have to wait 6 days for you to fix your faulty equipment!! Cancellation pending due to total lack of customer service! I have been a customer since day one and never have I exp such a lack of cust care

  @virginmedia The guy I spoke to at VM yesterday said that she wouldn’t be eligible for a “disabled” phone line to be installed because it wasn’t claimed when they dug the front garden up 18 months ago. We were never given this as an option at the time, if we had we would have insisted on it.

  @virginmedia New call of duty released today and your Internet service is down. Are you taking the full piss out of me here? Wankers

  Dave Garside🇺🇦🇬🇧❤️ (@DaveGarside) reported 33 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia No. Tv is fine. I can access VOD such as Amazon Prime & Youtube no problem

• 
  Nathan (@nathangreen101) reported 34 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?

• 
  David (@Aldehulme) reported 39 minutes ago from Oldham, England

  @virginmedia I need to speak to somebody regarding a broadband problem without you running a check that will cut me off the internet. How do I get past this to speak to a person?

• 
  Gamepopper (@gamepopper) reported 42 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).

  Kelly Walsh (@Kellywalsh758) reported 44 minutes ago from Stockport, England

  @virginmedia Iv asked lots of questions that have gotten me no where. To be hung up on over & over. They gave me a date of 17th December for it to have it installed no reasons as to why nothing explained I just think it’s a joke and the costumer service is dreadful. To have to wait 6 weeks!!

• 
  Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported 44 minutes ago from Sale, England

  @virginmedia It’s everything connected via Wi-Fi. I don’t have the connect app. I check for service status on your website and it usually says there isn’t an issue, but that doesn’t reflect my service.

  @virginmedia As I say. I don't like publicly shaming a company that was once good. But your customer service is an absolute disgrace

  Skysports app with virginmedia login hasn't been working today so having to old school "watch" via live updates here. HORRIBLE way to sit thru that 8mins!!

  @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 well done virgin media… you’ve been faffing about with a broadband and tv issue for the last week. Was supposed to be fixed by yesterday, now it says it’ll be the 7th. In the mean time we’ve got no broadband or tv in long intermittent blocks all day. 👎🏼

  @grok how many times have I reported. Virgin media being down on this account?

• 
  Nicola Golding (@NicolaG01) reported 13 minutes ago

  Day 3 of no internet and almost zero communication from @virginmedia. Got a text on Friday saying issue fixed (clearly not) and nothing since. Went on the service tracker to sign up for updates. Still nothing.

  Chris Ohanians (@COhanians) reported 17 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Your message button is not working. Just resets the x page over and over

• 
  Pete Bradbury (@PeteBradders) reported 18 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I have been a customer of yours for 25 years and upon the most recent contract renewal, you denied the package I opted for because it was for 'new customers only' and then went on to charge me with a bill for £124! A colossal 34% increase! Loyalty means nothing!

  @loldiplo @virginmedia Every time you reply, it just further confirms that you truly are stupid. I don't talk to stupid people.

• 
  Teddy (@ChokeLever) reported 21 minutes ago

  @giffgaff Tbh I didn’t chose @virginmedia because their reviews are poor. I should’ve known better as it was still their engineer who failed to show up. #Frustrating, but for #giffgaff not to have any means of rectifying the issue is unacceptable. I am being penalised as a result.

  @virginmedia total shite, no broadband, failure after failure. Bullshit service

  Debzy G 🦅🐦‍⬛🦉 (@brummiedebz) reported 24 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Right, I’ve tried calling these things. None worked Which suggests it’s an app issue.
