  Our 4th day of no internet thanks to @virginmedia Can’t talk to a person. Fix date changes three times a day and it’s yet to be fixed. And yet they take a small fortunes out of our account every month.

  @virginmedia It says there aren't any known issues but we have been struggling with it for the last few years - the service is just getting worse!

  Connor Dean (@donnorcean) reported 9 minutes ago from London, England

  @virginmedia Still cutting in and out as it has been for many weeks… no local area issues listed anywhere. Have been trying to get ahold of someone for weeks now but just keeps looping in the app, really frustrating

  @premierinn no Free WiFi or Ultimate WiFi at Premier Inn Euston. Twitter has lots of other complaints of the same issue nationally… why I am asked to speak to Virgin Media, how hard can it be? Forget Network does not force the page to reload, what else can I do?

  @virginmedia As I have already told you-the service checker simply, and probably purposely, give us a fixed time of 4/5 hours after any time you look at it. In short virgin are just “moving goal posts“. Why are you unable to tell 100s of your subscribers what the problem is. Is it laziness?

  @virginmedia How long have you got? I have just sat down in a restaurant to cry on a friend’s shoulder. The nice server said, “how are you?” I just burst into tears! Seriously. My disappointment is palpable. I want to go back to @BT

  @virginmedia Duly noted. I'm not likely to be a customer for much longer though, with your general level of service and pricing.

  Hello @virginmedia I get that things break sometimes. Do you think there’s a way you cld keep customers informed about how long it might take to fix it? I’ve tried your status page which tells me both that there’s no issue in our area and also that there is an issue . .

  @virginmedia hello, since you ‘upgraded’ the WiFi in our area - Clerkenwell- the WiFi signal has been terrible. To whom shall I complain? Thanks

  @virginmedia hi, received my new phone. Except there’s no 4G/5G showing up even though I can send messages, go on social media and I can’t access sky bet. Is there any solution to this?

  Emma Churcher-Holt (@emmalouchu) reported 31 minutes ago from Camden Town, England

  @virginmedia No, I have TV service only and the live chat agent said I would get the compensation form.

  Amanda Birrell (@blackheathma) reported 35 minutes ago from London, England

  @MartinSLewis It is the worst company I have ever dealt with and I’m now actively discouraging others to use Virgin Media. Cancelling is also very difficult and deliberately so

  Francisco Soler (Jr) (@jrseloto) reported 35 minutes ago from City of London, England

  @virginmedia 11 May - which of course i will cancel today as I’ve had enough of this. too much stress and no TV or internet for 30 days

  Please @virginmedia can you change your waiting music. Its the same 4 tracks adnauseum & very poor quality at that. No wonder customers who wait for over an hour hang up. Its enough to drive you mad with these earworms all day.

  Tomasz Rykała (@tomaszrykala) reported 39 minutes ago from London, England

  Wow @virginmedia is having a complete meltdown in my area and their automated service is telling me that this "short" interruption to my internet services should be resolved at 10 am tomorrow. That's 14 hours from now! What if my work depended on it?

  Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported 48 minutes ago from Hackney, England

  @virginhelp @MistryMistry21 @virginmedia Virgin Media give really poor customer service. I’ve been waiting over 14 hours? It feels like your customer service team is a team of 1

  @virginmedia I need help because I have someone that has used my address to set up virgin the box is here and are 6 letters I have spoke to someone but they do not believe me that the person does not live at the address what can I do

  Joshua Garfield (@JoshuaGarfield) reported 14 minutes ago

  Took me 18 months to tactically swerve Virgin Media after they tripled my broadband payments while moving home. They are unscrupulous. I’m with Community Fibre now and after 10 (mostly forced) years with Virgin, I’ll never return.

  Stacy Mitchell (@StacyMitchell2) reported 17 minutes ago

  @virginmedia what’s with your broadband in South Bristol. It’s been slow as hell for a week and off completely for 2 days now. As soon as this contract’s up I’m going to sky

  @BBCNews I hate it Being stuck in the contract with Virgin media. Their call centres were terrible well depending which country you got. One member of staff refused to log me in because at the start I said I'm dyslexic and he said well if you fail the security questions we can't help you
