  @BorisJohnson @virginmedia @O2 Imagine being part of a club or a group where roaming could be free for every mobile phone network automatically across Europe We should join that club sometime.

  @virginmedia The issue has now been resolved just after my tweet, I was just very angry at the time. Thank you though for responding.

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

  Katie Purkiss (@KatiePurkiss) reported 11 minutes ago from Southend-on-Sea, England

  After 20 years of being with @virginmedia and Telewest before that, I’ve finally decided to jump ship. Broadband has been horrendous for a couple of weeks and constant issues. 😔. #TimeforaChange

  Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Andrew007Uk) reported 12 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 🙏🏻

  MrChips (@MrChips2000) reported 12 minutes ago from Grays, England

  @virginmedia Hi, I would like to cancel my recent broadband order. I found a better deal.

  Phil (@feyipuk) reported 20 minutes ago from Crayford, England

  @virginmedia Phoned, and as expected; they can't just "put this right". The equipment and service are working fine. That the dish is broken and there is little slack to enable me to bury the cable deeper is due to local engineers. Will just have to dig trench, break cable and wait again!

  Going for Gold (@Gold_Accounting) reported 21 minutes ago from South Ockendon, England

  @itvnews please help. @virginmedia refusing to prioritise an 87 year old with a heart condition who needs a 24/7 phone line for her Emergency button a priority. Refusing to send an Engineer for ANOTHER 6 days.

  @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

  @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

  Robert Smith (@RobertSSmith66) reported 29 minutes ago from Sutton at Hone, England

  Q. What kind of moronic company thinks it enhances customer service by only allowing communication via WhatsApp on a phone? A. @virginmedia! @SkyUK here I come !

• 
  Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Andrew007Uk) reported 33 minutes ago from Sutton at Hone, England

  Listening to the broadband presentation on @itvMLshow with some irony. I pay @virginmedia £79/month for broadband/phone & TV. BB/TV failed in November, after many calls they say it will be fixed in March 2023 😬 Compensation is only calculated when service is restored 😪 Fair?

• 
  Nancy S (@mizznansea) reported 34 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.

  Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported 39 minutes ago from Southend-on-Sea, England

  @virginmedia I’ve now been told that there is no complaints team, despite the fact I spoke to them earlier. How is it possible to be so poor?

  DragonFish 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇮🇹 (@discobabe76) reported 45 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

  Penny Rolfe nee Acres (@wonky1961) reported 52 minutes ago from Southend-on-Sea, England

  @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.

• 
  Sharon Hills 💗 (@Gertie58) reported 53 minutes ago from Dartford, England

  @virginmedia We have broadband but no WiFi. Rang customer services on Thursday lunchtime to be told that although nothing shows up in the service checker it' known fault and should be back today, now it's almost two days without WiFi, just want update from someone who knows what's happening

  @virginmedia The Channel 4 app isn’t working on 360. It freezes before it gets to the main menu. Is that an issue on your end or theirs?

• 
  Damian Hastie (@DamianHastie) reported 6 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Wow you really don't want additional business, shocking experience both with your customer service bot and now when DM your X bot. What a terrible business.

  @virginmedia 3 months of issues have forced me into this situation. I may as well be in a zombie apocalypses.

  Chris Tindall (@chewytheleftie) reported 9 minutes ago

  @alan_reddish @sibelian62 @virginmedia They are a terrible company for internet. Fortunately for us we have plenty of their direct rivals who we use instead now after they made it clear our custom was of no interest to them

  I need a lawyer or a support group to help me file a complaint against Virgin @virginmedia regarding issues with their internet service.

  john (@jhargie4) reported 16 minutes ago

  @o2 @virgin @virginmedia CEO LUTZ SCHUELER received a call from your office regarding my complaint and when I asked a direct question rather than answer your representative went silent before abruptly disconnected the call with no warning. Great customer service.

  Magnolia’s Art (@Magnoli23215778) reported 18 minutes ago

  @virginmedia As I have an engineer coming out on average every 6wks for last 18months, am now wanting to leave them. Saying I’ve to pay £1300 to get out of my remaining 14months contract. Anyone else having issues? Incompetent lot!

  Expanse Consulting Ltd (@ExpanseCon) reported 18 minutes ago

  @ulickdcox @VodafoneIreland Not a vodafone issue. Looks like a core switch failure, optical cross-connect fault or other fault inside one of the central carrier-neutral hubs. It has dropped interconnection across multiple fixed ISPs (Virgin Media, Eir, Siro, NBI) simultaneously.
