  Simon Manning 🇪🇺 - SiManM20@mstdn.uk (@SiManM20) reported 10 seconds 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

  @virginmedia Thanks for updating I've had my 82 year old dad on the phone as he only has the main tv channels so I guess its the same issue as the pixalation issues. I'll let him know

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

  @virginmedia shocking service from you today, I booked an engineer visit for my mum supposed to come today between 12-4 nobody came she’s since called and been told it was a phone call not a visit but still nobody had called. She’s now got to wait till Tuesday for a visit 😠

  Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported 18 minutes ago from Sale, England

  @virginmedia You’re not understanding. I do contact when the issue is happening, your advisor then fixes it, but it then happens again within 24 hours. I need a ‘once and for all’ fix. Not this whack a mole approach you’ve had so far.

  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 19 minutes ago from Atherton, England

  @virginmedia my internet has been down since Friday afternoon. I was told it would be fixed in 24 hours, the time has since changed and is currently at 8pm this evening. I work from home so need my internet back up and running before Monday morning. This is disgraceful

• 
  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 22 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.

  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 🤬💷😤

  Anyone available at @virginmedia please? Your website is shocking for trying to get in touch with customer services / live chat. Thanks

  Ray Morgan. NHS💙🇺🇦 (@Rayzor74) reported 27 minutes ago from Stockport, England

  Good start to the day with @virginmedia informing me my monthly bill is increasing by £15/month and I have until the 17th of April to decide on my options. That is £180 annually. Having been firstly a Nynex customer and a Virgin customer since the takeover think it may be time

• 
  Richard Ashton 💙🇺🇦 (@Rik_Ashton) reported 30 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.

  I have virgin media but they don’t have a Customer service that you can speak to. Or email I’ve had a problem for over a month since an engineer messed about in the box in the street. Picture on tv keeps pixilated.

  Scott Moseley (@roslers_vest) reported 33 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

• 
  Paul Terry (@SurrealPaulT) reported 35 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?

• 
  Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported 44 minutes ago 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.

• 
  Nathan (@nathangreen101) reported 53 minutes ago from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

  Hi @virginmedia is there a particular reason your engineers phone to say they are here but never actually turn up?

• 
  UtilitaRian 🔶 (@SoloUtilitaRian) reported 55 minutes ago 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

  A S Murray 🦔 (@AsTrubludru) reported 8 minutes ago

  @ZDangermouse @virginmedia If you have a decent data plan, you can use your phone as a hot spot for your smart tv. I’ve done it for an Xbox a few times when my internet went out. Games are a little slow, but Netflix and other streaming services were good when I did it.

• 
  A.Brown (@_DundeePerfect_) reported 9 minutes ago

  @Raphas_Angel_ @virginmedia Imagine that day everyone knows you can Hot Spot your Own Phone or Buy a Data only Sim in case ever need it. I never have a second with no Internet access, but in saying this I cannot remember which year my VM didn't work. Also plenty FREE Wi-Fi places the Benefit Office suggests

  iplayer quality so bad watching the match. Like watching through water. Also, why can't I watch with @virginmedia app? Disappointing..

• 
  Abbey (@Barbiknow) reported 12 minutes ago

  @virginmedia In the kitchen it’s very bad, bad in the bathroom, worse upstairs and it’s very frustrating. I just upgraded to a faster bandwidth but I haven’t seen a single difference except for that I am paying more money.

  @Simon_Whale @virginmedia Was with VM at old residence. Service was fin, suddenly one saturday phone, tv & Internet stopped working. A week later an engineer came out, we had been unplugged by an engineer on that Saturday for a new connection. VM offered a pittance of compensation. Told them to stick it

  @Grimmy01942 @Simon_Whale @virginmedia They did this to me, it was the final straw. I sacked them off and got BT fibre broadband, never looked back.

  The mother of a 9-year-old seriously injured in an e-scooter incident says the consequences of these crashes can be life-changing. Her son was hit by a 15-year-old while on his way home in Leixlip last summer and, a year on, is still walking with a limp. Hear from her on the News at 5.30pm. 📺 More on Virgin Media PLAY and Virgin Media One.
