  @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?

  @virginmedia you have caused me nothing but hassle for months now. Your customer service team are completely useless.

  @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?

  @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)

  @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 ?

  Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported 39 minutes ago from Westhoughton, England

  @virginmedia And our Internet is down again this morning! So because its intermittent we don't get compensation, tried to call, can't get through (have to do it on mobile, our 'landline' is now internet reliant!)

  CLAIRE GROVER 🐝 (@ClaireabelleRed) reported 43 minutes ago from Bury, England

  @virginmedia Thanks for updating I've had my 82 year old dad on the phone as he only has the main tv channels so I guess its the same issue as the pixalation issues. I'll let him know

  Josh B (@JoshuaBurns) reported 48 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia I will. 2nd week in and these kind of issues is worrying considering my partner needs a connection to work from home. How long do I have to switch providers is it 30 days?

• 
  Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported 53 minutes ago from Sale, England

  @virginmedia You’re not understanding. I do contact when the issue is happening, your advisor then fixes it, but it then happens again within 24 hours. I need a ‘once and for all’ fix. Not this whack a mole approach you’ve had so far.

  Definitely not Elon Musk (@twiddlemeister) reported 53 minutes ago from Cheadle Hulme, England

  Probably consider an unlimited tariff at some point to make up for when Virgin Media goes down.

  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 thanks for replying. You have been no help, absolute shambles of a company.

  @virginmedia hi guys, Any sign of the virgin hub 5 being available to send me? I was told I could have one around 6 months ago after a long conversation but never heard anything since! Regards Duncan

  @SisterWalburga I can see it from the biog. link - but I’m an EE customer rather than Sky or Virgin Media, so maybe it doesn’t count for the purpose of the question…

• 
  Kevin (@TheDoctorMagic) reported 11 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I'd like help with this: Why do you require customers make themselves available for a delivery from 8am to 6pm when other companies are able to give a 4 hour window? And why do you continue using the incompetent @Yodel_delivery company? My recent delivery finally arrived 8.45PM.

  🐺 (@stefan655) reported 15 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I've just had one of the worst customer service experiences I've ever encountered over the phone. The representative I spoke to today was incredibly rude, dismissive, and unhelpful throughout the call!

  Serenity Solo Studios (@SerenitySoloDev) reported 18 minutes ago

  Virgin Media may have the best broadband speeds for me, but lying salesmen and Virgins policies really has me thinking about cancelling during this cooldown period. I was told 1000mbps was the maximum speed here. I found out it was 2000mbps. I tried to change as I was unaware of this at the time, due to what the saleman told me, but they wanted to charge me £88 per month or so for the 2gb package when the 1gb only costs £33 per month. Even though the website says £55 per month for the 2gb package. I then asked about the upload spped matching the download speed. At first, I was told this was a different package, not an addon, so it would cost £88 per month in total. What? I then threatened to leave and rejoin with a new package as I was in the cooling off period. I was then told this was an addon for £6 per month. They can't change anything on my package though apparently. It now has to be sent to another team to check through this and I have to wait 5-10 days. This is the most confusing company I have ever dealt with. When joining Sky, I could change my package at any time and still be given the in contract discount. Sky may have slower speeds, but @Virgin have to have to the worst policies that kind of makes me regret changing over. If they say I still have to pay almost triple the cost, I may just take the loss of the broadband speed and move back over to Sky. Virgin are trying to rip me off as their sales representative who came to the door and sold me the package never gave the full information to me and said 1gb was their highest package they had for my area.

  The Hodge-Cast Podcast (@Hodge_Cast) reported 18 minutes ago

  @DAZNBoxing I can safely say, I will never be purchasing a PPV from your service again. Nearly 15mins of a blank screen for a PPV - I realise technical issues happen and it’s live, but to make no attempt to to fix this problem in a timely manor is a farce. @virginmedia I’ll be cancelling my subscription with yourself also, if I don’t receive a refund. Unacceptable!

  Gloucester Glass (@gloucesterglass) reported 19 minutes ago

  Getting more than a little tired of really poor internet in GL2 @virginmedia I rely on it especially with the very poor Virgin/O2 mobile signal in my area. Pull your socks up Virgin this is not what I am paying for. Next week you expect me to connect my landline to my router!

  Dr Laura Jenkins (@LauraJks2015) reported 20 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Hi. How do I find out how long an outage is going to be? WiFi is currently off and I’ve reset everything so I’m guessing it’s a network issue.
