  Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported 45 seconds ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia I've been a customer for 10 years. Is this how your treat your loyal customers?

• 
  Simon Manning 🇪🇺 #FBPE (@SiManM20) reported 2 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia Will do. That was your cue to step in and offer some ‘customer service’ btw.

  Is the WiFi down for anyone else in the #OL9 area? #Oldham #VirginMedia

  Christopher Fox (@ChrisFoxRacing) reported 12 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

• 
  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 15 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

• 
  Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported 16 minutes ago 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?

• 
  Edwin Daniel (@EdwinDa18453545) reported 18 minutes ago from Stockport, England

  @virginmedia @richardbranson @VirginMediaCC unethical practice & worst cust serv.after 50 days of total loss of service and no resolution and taking 52 pounds for that period from me now they are denying compensation as well as refund of monies taken.

• 
  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 19 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.

• 
  Simon Manning 🇪🇺 - SiManM20@mstdn.uk (@SiManM20) reported 21 minutes ago from Manchester, England

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

• 
  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 21 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?

• 
  Daniel McDermott (@dantheman8t5) reported 22 minutes ago from Dukinfield, England

  @virginmedia any idea when the outage will be sorted? I have work to do today

• 
  jimmy (@jimmysteamboat) reported 23 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia Can you confirm if service is down in the M4 Manchester postcode? Us and Neighbours wifi not working when we are WFH!

  @virginmedia No point, there is a problem but it shows there aren't any issues in the area.

  @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.

  Nick Lowden (@nick_lowden) reported 29 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @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?

• 
  Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported 30 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)

• 
  Dave (@bigdave22003388) reported 35 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 41 minutes ago from Sale, England

  @virginmedia It works intermittently. When I speak to an advisor they fix the issue at that moment. Then, the next day it’ll cut out again and the process repeats. It was working when the engineer left, but it didn’t last 24 hours. Intermittent isn’t good enough. I rely on you for work.

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

  Smyth Harper 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇺🇦☘️ (@sharper76) reported 51 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia I’ve just connected a new router for faster speeds and it isn’t working. I’ve called up and your customer services person who told me contradictory information, put me on hold and then hung up on me.

  entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported 7 minutes ago

  On day 8 with no broadband from @virginmedia the engineer has finally fixed it INFURIATINGLY he informed me that the service was shut off at the cabinet due to "noise" from the property that was affecting other users back on 21/4! Said he was astonished I hadn't been informed🤬

• 
  Gibbodive (@gibbodive) reported 8 minutes ago

  @entrustTMF @virginmedia BT are woeful too. Over 20 years of misery at 2 different premises. Starlink now - exceptional in every way except for one 3hr occasion with a world wide outage. AMZN also getting into satellite broadband soon. US extreme tech beating UK cables buried in the ground !

  nini ☆ (@thatluckygirl4) reported 10 minutes ago

  @virginmedia hi can you please get back to me? been trying to get in touch about this for 2 weeks now and got charged a late payment fee, on top of this, the wifi connection has been really slow

• 
  Abdurrahman Kaya (@Abdurrahmank001) reported 12 minutes ago

  Tired of paying for multiple subscriptions like Sky, BT Sport, Virgin Media, Now TV, Amazon Prime, Disney+, Apple TV+? I have got the solution. This IPTV @8k_Ultra_View02 offers: * 300,000+ live channels * 65,000+ VODs * PPV events

  Nicola Golding (@NicolaG01) reported 17 minutes ago

  Day 3 of no internet and almost zero communication from @virginmedia. Got a text on Friday saying issue fixed (clearly not) and nothing since. Went on the service tracker to sign up for updates. Still nothing.

• 
  Mr. Gringx 🔩 (@JamesRustles4) reported 18 minutes ago

  @JONEZZEEonMMA @GameRiot Having been with virgin media previously, Id have killed to have my internet only be down for four hours. I remember one summer we only HAD internet for 4 hours. Shocking service.

• 
  Sue Rouse💙 🇺🇦 (@rouse_sue) reported 22 minutes ago

  @virginmedia your customer service is appalling. Keep being given the run around and no action. Hate to do it this way.

• 
  karen (@karenwigg1) reported 22 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Yes, but point is, this will be the 3rd time at huge inconvenience to me. I've had to cancel arrangements yet again and tbh, the call centre is best to useless.
