  @virginmedia for a media company that sells amazing broadband, your website is terrible. Just goes in circles, doesn't let you change packages online. Terrible.

  @virginmedia I’m going into my 5 week of problems with this crap company they say they will investigate but nothing, no compensation nothing.

  @virginmedia There is a blockage, that I know - I have had no service since November. I was told it would not be sorted before March 6th. I had been promised 3 call backs from different people in the Exec Department - none have followed up.

  @PaulWelsh_UK @virginmedia There is no service. 26 November reported - 6th March earliest date for works. I was past to no less than 6 different teams before finally getting somewhere and then being cut off. Anyway welcome home my friend - hope you have more luck than me!

  @virginmedia You are no longer my ISP due to your incompetence. Also there will be a lawsuit pending due to the fact I almost died from pneumonia with pulmonary oedema and sepsis later going into stage 2 respiratory failure. Your useless service is unacceptable.

  @virginmedia I've been having problems with my phoneline and it is currently dead. An engineer came on Friday but its still not working. Charges have also been appearing on my phone bill for calls I have not made. This has happened twice since November.

  Mark Connolly (@macon1375) reported 19 minutes ago from Crayford, England

  @virginmedia Of course. I’ve done everything required of me: I was told it’s caused by my home move and the disconnection due on 12th. Things seem to have been prematurely actioned affecting my signal

  Robert Smith (@RobertSSmith66) reported 20 minutes ago from Sutton at Hone, England

  @virginmedia any chance you can get your website to work? Change Package Chat does nothing! Links sent via mail do not work! Hyperlink sent by text doesn’t work! Call centre (working from home in India?) worse than useless! Ever heard of Customer Centric design? #Useless

  Lisa Philpott (@Lisa2672) reported 21 minutes ago from Rayleigh, England

  @Shayan86 @virginmedia It’s a disgrace - my husband works in tv too. You 100% cannot rely on VM. I am definitely changing. My bill started off at £35 and is now £45 as we had to buy boosters. Worst service ever. Skybroadband non-fibre was better than this.

  Nigel Rumsey (@nigelrumsey) reported 23 minutes ago from Gravesend, England

  @virginmedia Your link says it can’t find any issues, there are issues. Can you advise if it’s being investigated? What’s the eta? Thanks.

  @AmandaSeager @virginmedia Same in Central London, my Company uses Virgin and we have had issues all day long

  Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Andrew007Uk) reported 25 minutes ago from Sutton at Hone, England

  After a mammoth session on the phone to 6 of your departments to arrange interim broadband given your service failed in Nov. & won't be fixed to March I spoke to a helpful chap called David in the Customer Care Dept before I was cut off. Can you help reconnect me @virginmedia 🙏🏻

• 
  Nancy S (@mizznansea) reported 31 minutes ago from Aveley, England

  So trying to cancel @virginmedia services and the stalling tactics being used are not cool. If customers want to leave they have every right to do so. Let them go.

  Mark 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@WhiskyOneIce) reported 33 minutes ago from Sutton at Hone, England

  Be careful if you ever want to cancel a @virginmedia account, I wrote to them, twice as per their T&C because you can never get through on chat or phone, they deny receipt of letters because you cant send recorded delivery so they just keep sending bills and chasing payments

  Sharon Hills 💗 (@Gertie58) reported 36 minutes ago from Dartford, England

  @virginmedia All of our WiFi appliances stopped working at the exact same time. The WiFi keeps trying to connect but just whirls and whirls. No issues with our appliances

  @_andy_pandy_ @virginmedia Outrageous 😱 I’d cancel my subscription.

  @virginmedia My phone is now over two weeks late, which isn’t an issue, I understand waiting for one to become available to send but to suggest I send this phone back and go without a phone until one eventually gets sent to me is just ridiculous. I’m not gonna pay my bills with no phone…

  DragonFish 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇮🇹 (@discobabe76) reported 53 minutes ago from Sutton at Hone, England

  @virginmedia No as I look after an elderly lady with parkinsons on Thursdays which means she doesn't get to get out of the house if I don't see her. So it's booked in for Friday. What help doninhave till then? Or reimbursement? I'm free every day after 3pm & I'm free Tuesday all day

  @virginmedia do you have any idea when our area will have service? I am unable to reach your customer service to book an engineer.

• 
  Mick.W (@mrwood71) reported 4 minutes ago

  @virginmedia you have the most rudest and aggressive sales personnel that called me after checking your website and thinking of joining. @skytv you have the worst renewal offer after joining 15 years ago when returning from overseas service Any alternatives?

• 
  iBraderz (@iBraderz) reported 11 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Just under 2 weeks later and still no resolution. This has now been going on over a month and all the service checker says is they are aware but the date of repair is consistently getting delayed. This is absolutely poor.

• 
  O2 (@O2) reported 12 minutes ago

  @rraanes Hi it's us from Virgin Media O2. Sorry to hear your having these issues, if you like could you please send us a DM with a screenshot of the errors you're getting, so we can take a better look?

  Neville Gaunt 💡💡💡 (@NevilleGaunt) reported 16 minutes ago

  @virginmedia You’re 24 hours too late … why such a poor response time here and holding on the phone?

• 
  Ravinandan Pratap Singh (@RavinandnSingh) reported 16 minutes ago

  @VirginMediaIE @virginmedia Still they have not resolved the issue. They charged over payment for 4 months and refunded only 2 months. Also no compensation for this fault. Is this how you are making money?

• 
  Dr. William Weir (@WilliamWeirFun) reported 19 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I don’t need your reminder, know my bill is overdue. It’s not with the want of my me not trying to pay it mind. I’ve been trying to sign in to PAY the bill for days but due to your insane stupid link up with O2 I can’t.

  @Lulette5772 @virginmedia Very bad @virginmedia The opposite of customer centric (customer abusive ?)

  @virginmedia I have had more outages with you on this supposedly "no outages" 1gb fibre than I have ever had with talktalk, and I am really pissed of! I am seriously considering leaving you early and making a complaint to offcom.
