    Hi @virginmedia I have just moved into a new apartment where Wi-Fi is included. I have registered as a resident and I have received a pre-contract email but no account number and I am unable to connect to the Internet. Can you help me set things up?

    @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.

    @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 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?

    Weirdly even older fan (@Karamonkey1) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia And the sum total of welcome texts I received during my 7 night stay in Jamaica was 189. I never moved from the same hotel. I often got 4-8 texts whilst sat at the same restaurant table or in my room. @virginmedia get your act together

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

    @virginmedia Yes currently showing resolution time of 0230 04/11 this is a really poor service it has been off for the majority of the day

    @virginmedia It's nothing you can help with on twitter unfortunately 😞.

  • GoaterBilly
    Billy Goater (@GoaterBilly) reported 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.

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

    @virginmedia Don't give me your copy and pasted waffle. You have done nothing to help. You have been an absolute thorn in my side! "I'm so sorry you feel this way" is such an outdated and terrible response from a marketing point of view btw.

  • Aldehulme
    David (@Aldehulme) reported from Oldham, England

    @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?

  • 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.

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

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

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

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

  • HollowayAlec
    Alec Holloway (@HollowayAlec) reported 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.

  • OldhamBradd

    Ah @virginmedia with this up and down service today you are really spoiling us!

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

    @virginmedia No as you person on 150 said you do not have a customer service that I could talk too. Your engineer said it was a fault at the box in street so I don’t know when it is fixed. But it’s not improve in the last month

    @virginmedia nearly four hours without now, come on like, it wouldn't be as bad if your TV package didn't run off the wifi too

  • Keiran_Mark
    Keiran Griffiths (@Keiran_Mark) reported

    @vdaybabygirl85 @rayquannnnnnn @virginmedia Keeps dropping out? Which VM Hub do you have? I've just got upgraded free from the hub 3 to hub 5 and so far haven't had any drop outs. Give the customer services a call and ask for an engineer (free) and when they come, it's ifs the hub 3, they'll change it for free.

  • calv_smith
    Calvin Smith (@calv_smith) reported

    Hi @virginmedia please could you provide an update and investigate why I have been waiting for over two months since the original engineer visit for the picture quality fault on my tv service to be rectified?

  • MattOfTheSouth
    Matt ⚡️ (@MattOfTheSouth) reported

    @virginmedia any reason why I can't get gig2 as a gig1 customer? Is it only available to new customers? Ridiculous if so. Postcode checker says it's available on my postcode if I was to order a new package?

  • StiffNips2
    Simone-Lee Deal (@StiffNips2) reported

    @JimMooreJourno CEO is too busy counting his £1 mil package to give a ****, and Burnham shows no interest in dealing with it. Amazing that it's a merry-go-round of useless bastards buggering up companies; he used to be at British Gas, equal only to Virgin Media for dissatisfied customers.
