  Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Andrew007Uk) reported 2 minutes ago from Sutton at Hone, England

  @virginmedia I performed the reset, it still does not recognise the code. Very disappointed. On Wednesday I wasted 3 hours on the phone talking to 13 of your people one of whom brazenly told me to fix all issues I must buy an upgrade. I am sorry to say the whole experience is abysmal 💔

  @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.

  @virginmedia been struggling for days with home WiFi. Tried to contact you guys but cant find a number Please help

  grizzly_gooner (@GoonerGrizzly) reported 27 minutes ago from Thundersley, England

  @virginmedia A number of times. But let’s be honest, they’re nothing but messengers. There is no escalation, and they can’t even call the construction company to escalate issues. As someone who has worked within many projects teams, and mapped business processes, yours is simply shocking

  Nigel Rumsey (@nigelrumsey) reported 29 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.

  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

  @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.

  @BBCNews please help. @virginmedia refusing to make an 87 year old with a heart condition who needs her telephone 24/7 for her emergency button a priority. Not sending an engineer for ANOTHER 6 DAYS.

  Mark 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@WhiskyOneIce) reported 35 minutes ago from Sutton at Hone, England

  @virginmedia Obviously i don't have proof because your site doesn't say send recorded so why would i, my number was ported in July and I wrote same time, I have no reason to not send letter and you can see from any data usage that I stopped using your service

  @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 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

• 
  Wesley Hammer ⚒️ (@CouchPotatoUK) reported 40 minutes ago from Romford, England

  @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.

• 
  Nick Miller 🇺🇦 (@NickMillerUK) reported 43 minutes ago from South Ockendon, England

  @virginmedia It’s everything downstream of the LAN ports, so wifi on the box is on and working but all his wired network is offline. I have asked him to check all the cabling to make sure it’s all connected.

  SHAME ON YOU @virginmedia refusing to send an engineer to repair my 87 year old mum with a heart condition who needs a 24/7 line for her emergency button. Making her wait ANOTHER 6 days

  @AnnG50707311 @virginmedia I always haggled with them and got them to come in at new customer prices. Surprising what they will give you when you let them think you are leaving. Also let them know what other companies will offer you to become a customer as they may match the offer

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

  @virginmedia Still happening BB8 area code, signal drops and reconnects, I will deal with it publicly. I cannot watch shows on streaming, I can just about get a daily done if it cooperates long enough. This is not good enough service, your customer support is no help either.

  @virginmedia I'm a VirginMedia customer with a subscription to the Sky Movies & Sports package. I was using the On Demand option to watch the Downton Abbey The Grand Finale movie. It was then I discovered that the subtitles are not synchronised with the soundtrack.
