  Andee Byford (@BobCratchitt) reported 3 minutes ago from Romford, England

  @virginmedia Yes I have checked the service status, it is the first thing I do & all was fine. The issues is with the cable Ethernet & the phone connection in the Hub 4. I don’t use your WiFi setup as my house is fully cabled for networking. I am a Network Architect, so have done basic tests

  DragonFish 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇮🇹 (@discobabe76) reported 7 minutes ago from Sutton at Hone, England

  @virginmedia 8/ have to pay if it came down to a third party router intimating that the fault was mine. No appointment till Thursday! I tried to explain that I care for an elderly lady and he wouldn't let me speak and kept interrupting me which was incredibly rude. I advised him to let me

  @MayorofLondon Shame they provide the most terrible customer service and treat you like they've got you by the short and curlies! Pay £400 a year for a service, custome service agents are like robots and stuff you for days when it doesn't work with no alternative offered! @virginmedia

  Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported 10 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 13 minutes ago from Sutton at Hone, England

  @virginmedia No issues... I need to speak to someone I've tried everything... Reboot, reset and nothing is working

  I’ve had 3 hours sleep, I’m trying to catch up and within 10 mins I’ve had four calls from **** bags pretending to be from Virgin Media. The next **** to do this, I’ll be tracking your location and paying you a ******* visit! 😡

  Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Andrew007Uk) reported 32 minutes ago from Sutton at Hone, England

  @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.

  Virgin Media broadband down AGAIN. Service Status website & app don’t work as no internet connection 🤨 @virginmedia

  Sharon Hills 💗 (@Gertie58) reported 36 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

• 
  Jay Bourley (@drummerJ83) reported 37 minutes ago from Sutton at Hone, England

  @virginmedia Hi. Have no wifi (green light) and despite rebooting several times have a had no luck. This has happened after following your instruction to reboot for ‘faster speed’. Please advise asap - no issues in the area according to your website.

  rachel Wheelhouse 🇺🇦 (@RWheelhouse1) reported 40 minutes ago from Chelmsford, England

  @virginmedia 6 days since moving to Virgin, we are having issues, the WiFi won't reach our outside cameras. After completing the troubleshooting guides + waiting for over an hour for a chat agent + 30 mins on the phone, we still haven't spoken to a human....not impressed

• 
  Phil (@feyipuk) reported 43 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!

  Mark Connolly (@macon1375) reported 43 minutes ago from Crayford, England

  @virginmedia Hah really @virginmedia been trying live chat since 8am and now call but on hold for ages!! Is not on. Causing issues with my work!! #worstbroadband

  Nancy S (@mizznansea) reported 43 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.

  Simon Norris (@sinozza) reported 47 minutes ago from Southend-on-Sea, England

  @virginmedia I spent over an hour on the phone yesterday trying to get through to a customer service rep only to get cut off. Still waiting to hear on WhatsApp and been on hold this afternoon 45 mins and still holding???? Whats going on??

• 
  Mark Connolly (@macon1375) reported 48 minutes ago from Crayford, England

  @virginmedia They advise they would send a signal to router, I then turn off after 5 mins, for 10 mins and when back on all will be working! Well it didn’t make a difference and my speed test shows my downloads dropped from 236mbs to 36. The issue is uploads tho at 0.5mbps. On hold again!

  Penny Rolfe nee Acres (@wonky1961) reported 58 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.

  David Ball (@dicksielives) reported 59 minutes ago from Romford, England

  Hi @virginmedia I ordered a new phone via my wife (who is already on Virgin mobile) last Friday. I was told to wait for a confirmation email which I still have not received. Can you help? I have the order No.

• 
  Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported 60 minutes ago from Southend-on-Sea, England

  @virginmedia I’ve already raised a complaint. I spoke to someone in the Stage 2 complaints team who told me it’s being dealt with and, as already mentioned, a manager would call me back at 4.30 which didn’t happen. Can someone please sort this out?

  @Simon_Whale @virginmedia Don't use Onestream, awful service, kept having mast problems so internet kept failing daily and i couldn't get out of the contract.

• 
  Sammi Todd (@hollypolls) reported 9 minutes ago

  @virginmedia how many times do we have to suffer loss of internet before you actually do something proactive & sort it? Fed up of paying for such a poor service, promised reimbursements which never happen & being fobbed off by your team every time to power off and reset the hub

• 
  RednalNut (@RednalNut) reported 9 minutes ago

  @Simon_Whale @virginmedia If you have a good mobile signal consider a LTE router & buy a unlimited Data Sim. I left Virgin after 23 years for similar reasons as above. With EE & happy with the service.

  Ali@Makely (@MakelyStudio) reported 13 minutes ago

  the thing AI has never once been able to do is walk into a room, understand the real problem before anyone's articulated it, and make a call that changes the direction of the product. I've done that at Sky, Virgin Media, NatWest and Citibank. that's still the job. and it always will be.
