  Alec Holloway (@HollowayAlec) reported 13 seconds 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.

  Smyth Harper 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇺🇦☘️ (@sharper76) reported 57 seconds ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia No it’s not, and it has now transpired that your customer services agent told me a direct lie that there was a fault in my area when there is not. Someone else has now booked an engineer to come out - next Wednesday. I can’t even have my heating on as that’s controlled vía wifi

  @virginmedia Hi, I’m trying to raise a complaint online but I’m not receiving any acknowledgment. Is there another way I can raise my complaint? Thanks

  Josh B (@JoshuaBurns) reported 4 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia on my second week of being a first time customer with you and my connection has been down for nearly 10 hours now. What’s going on?

  Every time speak to @virginmedia @Virgin customer service I die a little bit inside #emogirl

  Paul Terry (@SurrealPaulT) reported 7 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia hi Virgin. We had an outage of broadband and TV services beginning 23rd Sept which lasted for 4 days. At the time we were told we would be compensated for this loss. As it hasn't come off our latest bill, how do we claim?

  @MartinSLewis I'm not sure if you can help me but here goes , in August I ended my contract with @virginmedia & to cut a long story short they still owe me £87 .+ They sent me a cheque in my maiden name so I returned it with a second copy of my marriage cert same as in 2015 1.

  Reece Jordan Doonan, RN (@Lerounxi) reported 13 minutes ago from Salford, England

  @virginmedia can you confirm if there’s active engineer trying to rectify the service outage Manchester (M30). Widespread issues reported according to your service outage on website ?

• 
  Paul Regent (@PaulRegent1) reported 17 minutes ago from Bolton, England

  @virginmedia no internet available in Bolton - must be an outage as, although coverage is very poor, it isn’t usually this poor!!

• 
  Martin Moscrop 🎺 (@martinmoscrop) reported 22 minutes ago from Salford, England

  @LennieThevan @virginmedia That sounds terrible Lennie. If you want to change a plan and save money they go out of their way to be unhelpful. However, if you want to spend more their customers service Is better.

  Michael Clark (@michaelclark09) reported 25 minutes ago from Sale, England

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

• 
  Scott Moseley (@roslers_vest) reported 39 minutes ago from Rochdale, England

  @virginmedia Submitting a complaint will probably result in an apology at best. Given I pay £1k per annum for an unreliable service it’s time to look for an alternative provider who can offer a more satisfactory customer experience

• 
  Howard Woolfenden (@Woolfie30) reported 43 minutes ago from Rochdale, England

  @virginmedia yet again my Internet isn't working. 18m on the old Internet and not one outage. now on the new and 'improved' service and yet another outage, so many outages already.... come on sort it out I'm paying good money for this......

  William Connolly (@WCONNOLLY2512) reported 44 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @beverleyturner @virginmedia Virgin Media had gone ****. Poor broadband, crappie TV channels and half don't even work.

• 
  Mike Chilton (@thechilledpanda) reported 44 minutes ago from Bramhall, England

  @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.

• 
  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 46 minutes ago from Atherton, England

  @virginmedia See thread above, nothing changes except the time of the estimated fix. It must be very localised as not everyone in my area is affected. So if it is damaged cables, I haven’t seen anyone out repairing them over the weekend, it’s a joke

• 
  Tony Jacobs (@tonyj01) reported 49 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia seems to be down nationally. 1: tell us status 2: tell us when back on

  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 60 minutes ago from Atherton, England

  @virginmedia my internet has been down since Friday afternoon. I was told it would be fixed in 24 hours, the time has since changed and is currently at 8pm this evening. I work from home so need my internet back up and running before Monday morning. This is disgraceful

  @Johnty14 @virginmedia It's not Virgin Media themselves that do this btw. Some outside leaflet drop company gets hired to do it and they don't give a **** where they put that leaflet.

  @virginmedia can you help your call centres are useless!!! My sister has moved house as she and her husband are divorced and she has no contact with him. The ac is in his name , but she pays for it. All she wants is the ac to be in her name .. why is this so hard to do 🤬 ?

  A persistent hum is keeping families awake at night in Clondalkin. Residents living near the Echelon data centre have complained of broken sleep and frustration, with the EPA instructing the company to investigate the source of the noise and measures to reduce it. More on Virgin Media PLAY.
