    @virginmedia @Ofcom how is it acceptable to have no service staff picking up a call after 90 minutes and to leave a vulnerable older person with no telephone?

    Looks like someone pulled out the wrong plug at Virgin Media HQ. Even their website is down!

    @virginmedia are there any outages in the NG9 area or has my broadband broken for the second time this month?

    I want to leave @virginmedia but they are hoping I lose the battle of how long can we keep this man on hold before he gives up” battle ..what a terrible company.

    @virginmedia @02Priority_pjs with the current major issue with your apps are you going to deliver priority booking like you’ve promised? #keeppromises

    @virginmedia I’m not happy at all. My internet has been down since last night till now . I have tried to call customer service and it would straight decline it . I tried going on the website but still it won’t let me . As I work from home . Here is the area DE248ET

    @virginmedia How about just giving your customers reliably service for the extortionate prices. We can look after our kids as parents. You do your job as service providers. I don't want my kids in borstal

  • bigbrawbill
    Lord William Niven (@bigbrawbill) reported from Ilkeston, England

    So @virginmedia has been going off with technical faults from yesterday, My @EE is also been going off signal wise from yesterday is anyone else not think this is eerie and so so weird that both going down at the same time. Come on conspiracy theories welcome.

    @virginmedia can’t wait till they read the feedback on the email survey they asked me to do they scored a massive 0 from me and no I would not recommend them and will never go back to them either!!

  • GodberKen
    Ken Godber (@GodberKen) reported from Annesley, England

    @virginmedia hi - I have a sim only mobile contract that's not been used for at least 18mths. I've stopped the DD as I'm unable to simply cancel via website and the number quoted to call doesn't work. I've got nowhere to go with this problem now.

  • StephenKFrost1
    Stephen (@StephenKFrost1) reported from Eastwood, England

    @virginmedia work done on our internet network has left us with weak security at the same time this was happening I had a new update on my Apple iPhone. Not ver happy with situation.

    @virginmedia Well it doesn't work and my 8 kids are off school and can't even use their phones let alone their xboxs

    paul (@64derby) reported from Duffield, England

    @virginmedia just installed virgin broadband 350 today ! only getting 5 mbps in my study.. phoned customers services for a booster to be told none in stock and phone back in 2 weeks.. took me over an hour to speak to a person in India who couldn’t help

  • acmtix

    @virginmedia What would be really good is if you send out a message to your customers telling them there is an issue rather than leaving it to them to find out that they cannot use your services.

  • richardtaylor37
    richard taylor (@richardtaylor37) reported from Stapleford, England

    @virginmedia Hi, we are having issues connecting to the wifi throughout the house. The room the hub is in is good but the rest of the house is very poor, we have our children complaining that their games consoles won’t connect or buffering and glitching and it’s costing us a fortune.

  • ilsonnut43
    adrian dilks (@ilsonnut43) reported from Ilkeston, England

    @virginmedia why is my wifi so poor when I pay for the top bracket of broadband,my router is always cutting out ,really really fed up with it ?

  • stagladanddad
    Russell Morrell (@stagladanddad) reported from Annesley, England

    Hey @virginmedia my landline has stopped working again This is the second time I've had this problem now You'd have thought with you putting the prices up your service would be better?

    @virginmedia you’re sky sports + streaming is awful and not working ,get it sorted you take enough money of us at least give us what we pay for

  • AdrianOso7
    Adrian Oso (@AdrianOso7) reported

    @virginmedia is so happy with NOT getting new customers, they must be doing well over the expectations financially. The level of complacence is that big that they are refusing to connect up to 4 houses next to one where they offer fibre and there's no land ownership issue.

  • blmatt1
    Matt (@blmatt1) reported

    Hey @virginmedia, are there issues in my area again? Broadband went off suddenly yet service status suggests there are no issues?

  • ScouseBouncy

    @virginmedia @D4N7O Been broken for over 2 weeks!

  • traceyjohnson44
    tracey johnson (@traceyjohnson44) reported

    @virginmedia It was very frustrating and the caller kept saying my mum had to talk. But my mum gets confused. I was getting stressed as my mum relies on it. But it should say on my mum's account that she is elderly and has emergency calling attached to her phone.

  • StephenP311275
    StephenP (@StephenP311275) reported

    @virginmedia You were "looking into it" a couple of months ago and nothing happened. I can get a better deal and service by going back to Sky as a new customer.

  • robheneghan
    Rob Heneghan (@robheneghan) reported

    @virginmedia can we have maybe a full month without your service going down

  • AdrianOso7
    Adrian Oso (@AdrianOso7) reported

    @virginmedia I've sent private messages and they just ask me to call VM and get an engineer in. The engineer's conclusion seems to be that it's not worth the effort to extend the network by 10 metres, via a footpath which I own. And that's bang in the centre of a village right outside London.

  • ncfcandywright
    Andy Wright (@ncfcandywright) reported

    @virginmedia why does my online account have a button telling me to look at my renewal offers but when I click on it I get 'customer exclusion' in the address bar and get told to call? 70ish days until my contract ends

    @david_hollas Their broadband has been ok. Family have it, certainly much better than virgin media. Their mobile phone service was horrific.
