• 
  Christopher Fox (@ChrisFoxRacing) reported 3 minutes ago from Bolton, England

  @virginmedia Already reported the broadband issues, and it's an issue where estimated fix times keep getting pushed back. With regards to mobile issues, this has been around the same length of time. The only way I've been able to get any connection at all is by switching to 3G

  Not another outage? #virginmediadown #VirginMediaoutage @virginmedia

  @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.

  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 12 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 Talbot (@nathantalbot) reported 14 minutes ago from Salford, England

  Is anyone experiencing a Virgin Media outage in M6 currently? Fibre Broadband is struggling to connect

  officially Gaynor Austin 💙 (@birdflu_7) reported 15 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.

  Billy Goater (@GoaterBilly) reported 20 minutes ago from Strines, England

  @virginmedia well done, after over 10 years with you, Virgin Media have sunk to the their lowest level of service and support ever. Roll on November and the end of my contract. Appalling, ignorant, clueless, almost as bad as BT.

  johnsonhomes (@johnsonhomes2) reported 21 minutes ago from Sale, England

  @virginmedia Her phone like works at the moment because she has power but not in a power cut. This is one of the issues set out in the email which VM requested I send on Wednesday

  Dave (@bigdave22003388) reported 32 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia im guessing technical support ain’t working ? Got no tv and can’t get any help

• 
  Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported 35 minutes ago from Sale, England

  @virginmedia Will they help if the Wi-Fi is working at the time I call? Because my issue is that when it is working, your advisors consider their work done despite telling them that it usually doesn’t last. And invariable, it doesn’t.

• 
  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 40 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

• 
  Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported 40 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)

• 
  Hazbullins (@Hasbullins) reported 40 minutes ago from Salford, England

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

• 
  Nathan Talbot (@nathantalbot) reported 43 minutes ago from Urmston, England

  (Test) Is anyone experiencing a virgin media Internet outage in B9?

  🦔🦊Johnny1983 🦝🐱 (Big Animal Lover🐕🐶🐁) (@JohnnyDude1983) reported 43 minutes ago from Bury, England

  @bazza141 @virginhelp @virginmedia Join the club. I spent over 1hr 30 mins trying to get a issue resolved . I kept getting through to their over-seas call centres . It took almost 20 call re-tries to get through to a young lady over in Newcastle 😳😞. It's rediculous that they got call centres in 17 countries.

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

• 
  Reece Jordan Doonan, RN (@Lerounxi) reported 47 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 ?

• 
  Mike Chilton (@thechilledpanda) reported 53 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.

• 
  johnsonhomes (@johnsonhomes2) reported 55 minutes ago from Sale, England

  @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.

• 
  Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported 58 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.

  john (@jhargie4) reported 2 minutes ago

  @o2 @virgin @virginmedia CEO LUTZ SCHUELER received a call from your office regarding my complaint and when I asked a direct question rather than answer your representative went silent before abruptly disconnected the call with no warning. Great customer service.

• 
  James (Jim) Naismith (@JHNaismith) reported 2 minutes ago

  Usually optimistic on technological progress so disappointed broadband speed being > halved to 67Mbps next month by @bt_uk. @virginmedia can’t fix their “blocked duct” at front door, not good advert for uk infrastructure, I live in Jericho, central Oxford, not remote Highlands.

• 
  Pekalton (@Pekalton) reported 2 minutes ago

  @ConorPDunne I agree Connor. It’s time for a complete change of direction for RTÉ. I’ve lost interest in the LLS and RoT. I get RoT brings tourism to Kerry but it’s time for a change. RTÉ is still living in the times gone past. What exactly are we paying TV licence for? Virgin Media is as bad

• 
  LivingSage (@LivingSage2) reported 4 minutes ago

  @Dacosta150 @Jojo_agboola Bro, I’m on Youfibre too, lovely network. I dropped virgin media broadband, not because they are bad but cos of Youfibre upload speed. Their 1000mbps download is same with their 1000 upload. I’m on You2000 and it’s been lovely. @Jojo_agboola should try it

• 
  Ian Kill (@IanKillip) reported 4 minutes ago

  @MelJanie @virginmedia I’ve never had a problem that’s not been sorted quickly and conveniently.

• 
  Declan Carty (@declancarty) reported 9 minutes ago

  @IrishTimes Perhaps someone like the excellent Patrick Freyne might investigate why, after all these YEARS, Sky subscribers in the ROI cannot get ITV channels, whilst Virgin Media customers have no probs in doing so. Is it still supposed to be a ‘rights’ issue ????

• 
  Alan Wright 🦫 (@Alanw47) reported 9 minutes ago

  @Englandgav @virginmedia Recycled hub not properly reset? But I agree it must be a GDPR issue and VM can't just ignore it

• 
  andy spinoza (@andyspin) reported 10 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Hi we’ve been plagued by problems since you introduced the new box /software. Now it’s not showing ANY Tv! Totally shocking service. been waiting for 40 mins on the phone line. Your diagnostics show no issues but we have NO Tv- our lives taken over rebooting. Rubbish

• 
  LGWLGWLGW (@lgwlgwlgw) reported 15 minutes ago

  @virginmedia another day another set of “intemittent service issues” can I make my payments to you intemittent depending on service availbility? Crock of **** service #crapbroadband

  Vocal and Proud (@Vocalandproudx) reported 16 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Shameful service. I’ve contacted you DAILY and STILL no resolution for my inconsistent internet connection. It’s been 6months now. DSAR request promised, still waiting. Enough is enough. Escalating to @Ofcom
