    Paul Regent (@PaulRegent1) reported 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!!

  • michaelclark09
    Michael Clark (@michaelclark09) reported from Sale, England

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

  • pillbo01
    kevin.james (@pillbo01) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia That number is a automated response not a customer service agent and an utter waste of time

  • JoshuaBurns
    Josh B (@JoshuaBurns) reported 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?

  • Scarlet0Pimp
    Liam 🐀 (@Scarlet0Pimp) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia hello, can you please fix the broadband in the sk11 8aa area once and for all. It was down yesterday afternoon, just gone down today and down last week. Clearly there is some Faulty hardware that needs replacing. How can people work from home with broadband like this

  • mark001282
    Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported 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.

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

  • CallyRaven
    Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @virginmedia 3 times in 3 weeks we are without internet! We are paying for a service we are not able to use! Are we going to be compensated for this?

  • SurrealPaulT
    Paul Terry (@SurrealPaulT) reported 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?

  • anttaylor23
    Anthony Taylor (@anttaylor23) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia The what's app line is fine, your advisers don't seem like they want to keep me as a customer. Well not for a decent price anyway 👀

  • louaze
    🐝Louise🐝 (@louaze) reported from Manchester, England

    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!!

  • Hasbullins
    Hazbullins (@Hasbullins) reported 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

  • Rik_Ashton
    Richard Ashton 💙🇺🇦 (@Rik_Ashton) reported 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.

  • SoloUtilitaRian
    UtilitaRian 🔶 (@SoloUtilitaRian) reported from Bolton, England

    With the intro of new dedicated Gigabit lines in my street I can't wait to switch over and leave Virgin Media for good. 3x internet has gone down this week and I just called VM. The systems there are down and gotta call back in 3hrs..... useless

  • KerryKez7
    Kerry Louise (@KerryKez7) reported from Urmston, England

    Don’t ever get Virgin Media internet/WIFI it’s SO garbage & keeps going off especially when your watching something WTF & apparently it’s the most up to date & according to them it’s the best NO it’s not plus it’s expensive for being SO c**p 🤬💷😤

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

  • NeilAshtonActor
    Neil Ashton (@NeilAshtonActor) reported 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.

  • twiddlemeister
    Definitely not Elon Musk (@twiddlemeister) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

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

  • thechilledpanda
    Mike Chilton (@thechilledpanda) reported 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.

  • CallyRaven
    Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @virginmedia I seem to be the first one to report them, still saying intermittent problems in my area. Can't get to speak to anyone on phone, I rely on the Internet.

  • StephenHampson
    Stephen Hampson (@StephenHampson) reported

    @gblondon1 @skytv Wait till the new customer vibes runs out and they treat you the way sky did. Increase in bills and decrease in customer service. Isn't this right @virginmedia

  • RETeacher11
    RE Teacher (@RETeacher11) reported

    Lulled into a false sense of security with @virginmedia but now second fault in two days. Impossible to contact them and if you do they never deliver on promises of compensation. Please Retweet this.

    @virginmedia @evo5797 Being in the feedback department of virgin media customer services must take unimaginable levels of fortitude.

    @gblondon1 @skytv Asked Virgin Media what options do I have for having their TV service in different parts of the house without running cables through my home...they offered me a firestick!

    Mark (@MarkAmiga) reported

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia No company seems to Reward Long Term Customers, its all "New Customer Deals" and forget those who have kept the company going, Both Sky/VM are the same in such respect Just have Roku Stick with Projector now, only sub to Amazon Prime now really, Got rid of Live TV years back

    Drew Stevo (@andrewstevo39) reported

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia Yeh its a shame Sky dont reward loyal customer with cheaper TV and broadband. Fantastic offers for new customers but totally agree, loyalty should be rewarded
