  Smyth Harper 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇺🇦☘️ (@sharper76) reported 46 seconds ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia No it’s not, and it has now transpired that your customer services agent told me a direct lie that there was a fault in my area when there is not. Someone else has now booked an engineer to come out - next Wednesday. I can’t even have my heating on as that’s controlled vía wifi

  @virginmedia Hi there, I was told I would receive my replacement broadband by today and still no indication of when it’s going to arrive. Any help?

• 
  Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported 8 minutes ago from Sale, England

  @virginmedia It’s everything connected via Wi-Fi. I don’t have the connect app. I check for service status on your website and it usually says there isn’t an issue, but that doesn’t reflect my service.

  @virginmedia my broadband was “delivered” today by Yodel but the package is no where to be seen and wasn’t attempted (I’ve been in all day waiting). I can’t get any help from them, please help!! 😭

  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 12 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?

• 
  Josh B (@JoshuaBurns) reported 14 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?

  @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?

• 
  Emily (@ErHes1997) reported 26 minutes ago from Timperley, England

  How can @virginmedia say "yes there's a problem in your area, we expect it to be fixed on Wednesday"... 5 days is a joke when you'll never see that money returned to you for lack of service provided

• 
  Gamepopper (@gamepopper) reported 29 minutes ago from Salford, England

  @virginmedia Oh, my bad. Apparently the wiring outside my house has a fault, someone did come last Monday to work on it,and someone was supposed to work on it for Thursday, but it keeps being pushed back (order ref 55230469).

  Daniel McDermott (@dantheman8t5) reported 35 minutes ago from Dukinfield, England

  @virginmedia Not as yet. Just that my postcode seems to be affected when checking service status

  @virginmedia are you down again in M20? Hub flashing red again.

  Hazbullins (@Hasbullins) reported 38 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

• 
  Adam🍺 (@MCR_ADM) reported 44 minutes ago from Stockport, England

  @virginmedia No they’re helping. But it’s VERYYYY slow. But almost there.

• 
  Scott Moseley (@roslers_vest) reported 45 minutes ago from Rochdale, England

  @virginmedia well the woeful service in Heywood continues after “fixing” the fault this morning which resulted in me being unable to work from home the network has dropped again this evening absolutely shocking service

• 
  Gemma ≅ (@SimpaticoGem) reported 47 minutes ago from Walkden, England

  Tell me why with my @virginmedia wifi and my @O2 phone contract, MY WIFI CUTS OUT CONSTANTLY AND I HAVE NO SIGNAL ANYWHERE I GO?! Thought being a customer of you both was supposed to reap massive benefits for me?

• 
  Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported 47 minutes ago from Manchester, England

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

• 
  Josh B (@JoshuaBurns) reported 47 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia Yes, tried last night and your service status page was actually down. Today I checked and it showed no issues, I run the diagnostic and no issues either. Came back up late this afternoon.

• 
  David (@Aldehulme) reported 53 minutes ago 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?

• 
  Alec Holloway (@HollowayAlec) reported 53 minutes ago 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.

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

  @virginmedia NE28 broadband appears down. I work from home. So any updates?

• 
  entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported 5 minutes ago

  @nameHarryPalmer @virginmedia That's EXACTLY it. They couldn't be bothered to fix it, didn't tell me, cut me off completely and didn't bother to organise ANY kind of repair. It just beggars belief Words almost fail me as to how poor an organisation @virginmedia have turned out to be throughout all of this

• 
  Gareth Newman (@newman_gareth) reported 6 minutes ago

  @virginmedia why is your broadband constantly so slow? Even in same room as router! Constant poor service

• 
  Paul Hulse (@paulpresenteruk) reported 10 minutes ago

  Having major issues with @ring doorbell, seemed to loose connection so iv tried recharging and reconnecting, rebooting etc but it still won’t connect @virginmedia

• 
  Lynne Devlin (@lynne_devlin) reported 12 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Absolutely appalled at the incompetent awful level of service. Over 3 hours on live chat trying to sort out my 96 year old grandmother contract as you are trying to charge her an obscene amount of money and I am no further forward.

• 
  Brian Geekie (@geekiebrian) reported 15 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I’m still locked out of my virginmedia account after waiting 15 working days for resolution of this problem

• 
  Isla (@saoirseisla) reported 16 minutes ago

  My fave thing about @virginmedia is nothing. No WiFi for 4 days. No WiFi = no tv. Been fobbed off for days. Each day promising it’ll fixed by the end of the day. Only to turn around today and say only an engineer coming to the house can fix it. I want out of this contract.

• 
  Roger Green (@RogerGreen2009) reported 16 minutes ago

  @entrustTMF @virginmedia I got a ‘3’5g router that pulls down the 5g signal, it was as fast as my Virgin Media 200+gbps and more reliable. £25/month. If you’ve no 5g coverage starlink is offering £35 a month.

  Sophie Alexis (@SophieAlexis30) reported 19 minutes ago

  @virginmedia just installed internet and been told we need 2 boosters it’s been a week and a half and still yet to arrive. Can anyone help in chasing them please.

  twocakesdakes (@2cakesdakes) reported 21 minutes ago

  @virginmedia why does your call centre phone me about 3 times a day then just hang up when I answer?
