  • jai_dee Jim Doran (@jai_dee) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Just the one channel. The picture is jerking and freezing and has been for a good week now. As I said every other channel appears to be perfectly fine, it's just a problem with @wchannel

  • beezlebum Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia No. You have proved beyond a shadow of a doubt your customer service is beyond useless.

  • DavidPMet David Phelan (@DavidPMet) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Yes. And another call already, that's 2 for today. I'm blocking both numbers. Terrible customer service practice.

  • nadean_ni Nadean (@nadean_ni) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia @TaylorMod Yes we've checked, the world and its granny knows VM is down in Belfast but this has been since Monday now. Absolutely ridiculous. Cost me a fortune on data when I moved and VM kept getting the addres wrong, was well over a month without the service and this was 2 months ago.

  • ASMagency @AgentSWhelan (@ASMagency) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I’ve been on the phone 3 hours already to try and cancel my broadband/tv services and had my mobile phone cut off. Horrendous the time it takes to cancel

  • BelfastBooks Belfast B❄️❄️ks (@BelfastBooks) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Well done to @virginmedia’s off shore support team for taking a loyal customer of 24 years, treating them so insensitively that they’ve now cancelled their contract and will go elesewhere for phone, broadband and TV.

  • larmour_andre Andrew Larmour (@larmour_andre) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Sky Sports app “device limit reached” even though it has not been. Can not register/de-register devices on virgin app and it advises “contact your service provider” - which is yourselves.

  • ScottD_DJMS Scott Dixon (@ScottD_DJMS) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @O2 @virginmedia still unable to sign in to the Priority app using virgin. Any advice or update please?

  • SwissKrono_JH Johnny Hamilton (@SwissKrono_JH) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Don’t be so ridiculous. The app crashed you couldn’t even login. Utter shambles

  • tomdkeating Tom Keating (@tomdkeating) reported from Carryduff, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia any idea why Broadband and TV are down all day today in BT8?

  • HarbourLord Harbour 💚 (@HarbourLord) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia you have the worst laid out website. All I'm trying to do is speak to someone on chat to figure out why I have zero upload speed right now and honestly thinking of just cancelling my broadband contract because your site is so unfriendly for customers to navigate.

  • Tom_R_Finlay Tom Rowntree-Finlay (@Tom_R_Finlay) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    Cannot believe how @virginmedia treat their elderly customers. 75 year old women completly let down Have taken her money and delivered no services for two months. Disgusting to leave her isolated with No Sevices and no communication.

  • beezlebum Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @raycasey2003 Delicious! Having just spent six months of my life battling @virginmedia for the bare minimum compensation I was entitled to and witnessing their atrocious 'customer service', this has delighted me. I know he doesn't own Vigin Media anymore, but he created the monster.

  • Torig1983 Victoria Gillespie (@Torig1983) reported from Dunmurry, Northern Ireland

    So frustrated with @virginmedia sat for ages on live chat reducing my package.. was going through final stages and suspiciously my broad band went down Coincidence??

  • nadean_ni Nadean (@nadean_ni) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia The link only states there are problems in the area, not why or how long we should be expected to be without the service.

  • BelfastBooks Belfast B❄️❄️ks (@BelfastBooks) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Well done to @virginmedia’s off shore support team for taking a loyal customer of 24 years, treating them so insensitively that they’ve now cancelled their contract and will go elsewhere for phone, broadband and TV.

  • GarethOHare3 Gareth O’Hare (@GarethOHare3) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Oh for many a useless hour. We then spotted engineers outside. He said he wasn’t here to install internet, but to find Toby box. I said it’s there, someone dug it up 3 weeks ago. He said someone couldn’t find it during the week. Short story, it’s found please help

  • Torig1983 Victoria Gillespie (@Torig1983) reported from Dunmurry, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Working now but annoying as has taken most of afternoon up... now waiting for pc to reboot and virgin media chat doesn't work on phone so kept being given to runaround and redirected to faq pages. .such a faff

  • lab_animal Margaret Dunlop (@lab_animal) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia any idea when the issues will be resolved in the BT14 area ? The fault status on the app is still saying due fixed at 10am !

  • DavidPMet David Phelan (@DavidPMet) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland

    .@virginmedia please can you stop calling me every day? Long term customer offered £45 per month renewal, got double the speed for half the price with @TalkTalk 👏🏼 Since then, repeated calls offering £20 per month package, should have rewarded loyalty to begin with! @Ofcom

  • OneLoves_Butera Sumaiyah 🦋✨ (@OneLoves_Butera) reported

    @virginmedia It was promised they’d call this morning. I personally give them my own mobile number as my grandad is too upset to speak. It’s a shocking service!

  • tobes_cooper T (@tobes_cooper) reported

    Hi @virginmedia are you reporting any problems in the SE5 7 area? I checked the status online and it looks fine but no wifi for an hour now. Also tried reconnecting the hub and that seems fine too. Please advise. This is third time this has happened in recent weeks.

  • JFX2019 JFX (@JFX2019) reported

    @virginmedia your customer service line is seriously poor, not understanding what I’m saying at all. Can someone please message me I need to resolve an issue ASAP

  • sarah_jmurray Sarah Murray (@sarah_jmurray) reported

    @virginmedia Yes he has phoned O2 and cancelled but it got him in a panic. He should never have been sent it as that’s not what he was phoning about!

  • jkerrlfc Jack (@jkerrlfc) reported

    @virginmedia The connection is really poor, I’ve been having the issue for a few days now but it’s peaked as of now, it keeps dropping every minute and nothing is loading.

  • EdwardHarkins Edward Harkins (@EdwardHarkins) reported

    Hilarious? @virginmedia chatbox 'Toni Triage Bot' endlessly repeats 'Sorry that didn't match the format I need'... no matter which way, how many times, you try to vary the question & point out you cannot use that format. #fail
