• 
  Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported 27 seconds ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia I spoke to your customer service team on 2nd January who advised all issues had been resolved and my sim card was being sent out by royal mail delivery. Even with any postal delays out of your control it seems odd that it hasn't arrived.

  @virginmedia when will the broadband issues be fixed properly in my area?

• 
  Simon Manning 🇪🇺 - SiManM20@mstdn.uk (@SiManM20) reported 5 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @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

  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 5 minutes ago from Atherton, England

  @virginmedia Can you check that I will be receiving a credit on my next bill as it has been down since Friday afternoon and I don’t think it will be fixed by 12pm today, I think that time will get changed again.

• 
  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 6 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

  Edwin Daniel (@EdwinDa18453545) reported 9 minutes ago from Stockport, England

  @virginmedia @richardbranson @VirginMediaCC unethical practice & worst cust serv.after 50 days of total loss of service and no resolution and taking 52 pounds for that period from me now they are denying compensation as well as refund of monies taken.

  @virginmedia Hi, for the 2nd time it appears you’re trying to charge me for a call out when I wasn’t supposed to be charged, I’ve already called once about this and was told it was corrected but it’s happened again? I’ve had to cancel my DD until sorted as due to come out 2morrow

  Neil Ashton (@NeilAshtonActor) reported 16 minutes ago from Stockport, England

  @jimmyoates @virginmedia Same James. Same area and it’s not been working for an hour. It says on their website no issues in the area but not had any service.

  @virginmedia No point, there is a problem but it shows there aren't any issues in the area.

  SLT4K 👨🏻‍💻 🇬🇧 (@Slt4K) reported 23 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 🤯

• 
  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 25 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?

• 
  Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported 29 minutes ago from Sale, England

  @virginmedia I also don’t need to monitor the quality of my broadband, I already know it’s awful. I don’t understand how that would help.

• 
  Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported 30 minutes ago from Sale, England

  @virginmedia Have you just stopped responding now? Having some system issues?

• 
  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 32 minutes ago from Atherton, England

  @virginmedia I first informed Virgin Media that my internet was down via online chat on Friday afternoon. Will this have automatically been the time when my loss of service was registered as at the time the advisor said it would be fixed in 24 hours?

• 
  Nick Lowden (@nick_lowden) reported 36 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia can’t get on service checker as app says it is out of service. Internet has gone down in M20 ?? When should it be fixed?

  officially Gaynor Austin 💙 (@birdflu_7) reported 38 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia If you want I can send pictures and ALL THE emails .I don't have the time to keep discussing the same situation with yet another virgin media support staff . My time is precious.

• 
  Paul Terry (@SurrealPaulT) reported 38 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?

• 
  Richard Ashton 💙🇺🇦 (@Rik_Ashton) reported 40 minutes ago from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

  @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.

• 
  Kelly Walsh (@Kellywalsh758) reported 55 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!!

  Alex Davies (@daviesa02) reported 10 minutes ago

  @virginmedia an engineer visited over the weekend to install my broadband, but the external work wasn’t finished. CS booked another engineer for today, but they don’t need them anymore because the roadworks are is being completed today. £25 to cancel myself, can this be sorted?

  @virginmedia do you have any issues in WA9? My internet has gone down 😡

• 
  Master Roshi (@MasterRoshi1667) reported 10 minutes ago

  @MelJanie @virginmedia They really are a pack of useless *****. Typical VM. Takes your money and a shite service. We all accept it anyway because they are allowed to get away with it. It doesn’t pay to be loyal any more.

  Virgin Media News (@VirginMediaNews) reported 13 minutes ago

  Residents in parts of Nepal are being warned to move to higher ground as the threat of further flooding continues. Hundreds have been killed, thousands remain missing, and families in some worst-hit areas are returning to homes buried in mud to salvage what they can. More on Virgin Media PLAY

  Virgin Media News (@VirginMediaNews) reported 14 minutes ago

  First-time drug possession may no longer mean prosecution. From today, adults caught with a small amount of drugs for personal use may instead be referred to the HSE for support. They must admit the drugs were for their own use and agree to take part in the scheme. More on Virgin Media PLAY.

• 
  Dom Fitches (@DomFitches) reported 17 minutes ago

  @virginmedia incredibly poor customer service. Recently purchased a wifi router which has broken and isn't working and the earliest you can send someone out is Wednesday? To then have a customer service agent try and sell me a "priority" booking service for Monday is appalling.

• 
  dEBT shredder (@andybearz) reported 21 minutes ago

  @robert_grieve @virginmedia Yup Terrible customer service Seems to be once they have you signed up they no longer give a ****

• 
  Paul O'Brien (@PaulOBrienKil) reported 23 minutes ago

  @VMSportIE I strongly urge anyone thinking of subscribing to @virginmedia to NOT do it. Took over a hour to get through to customer service & they still won't fix their mistake. Shambles of an organisation.

• 
  Monty Kumbulla (@KumbullaMonty) reported 26 minutes ago

  @virginmedia What are the chances of a very-light-use customer that has been with you for THIRTY YEARS getting a deal at the same cost as a brand new customer?

• 
  Bev Terry 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆 (@Bev2810) reported 30 minutes ago

  @virginmedia you don’t bother looking after loyal customers do you ? want to offer my renewal for more than what I can get as a new customer
