  Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Andrew007Uk) reported 41 seconds 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 💔

  @Mattallwright 2 years on since I have been having trouble with Virgin Media (fingers crossed) they may have now get an uninterrupted supply after charging me late payments more than double my Media prices whilst as a Vulnerable Person they were awful

  @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.

  Lewis Allen ⚒ (@_Lewis_A) reported 9 minutes ago from Romford, England

  On phone to @virginmedia for 55 mins to cancel, speak to 4 different people about a mis-sold service and then when I ask them to produce my contract they hang up. Not happy.

  @virginmedia @virginmedia can have no rival to the worst customer service out there! Said resolved an issue after held for over an hour only to find it’s not and I now can’t get back in touch. 2nd day work ruined

  Andee Byford (@BobCratchitt) reported 14 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

  @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 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

  LES ⚒ (@PL13Les) reported 46 minutes ago from Sutton at Hone, England

  What is going on with the horrific intermittent WIFI connection in SM5 for the past week. Website says there is a problem BUT have to wait til Friday for an engineer. Abysmal performance @virginmedia

  Going for Gold (@Gold_Accounting) reported 46 minutes ago from South Ockendon, England

  @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.

  Virgin Media News (@VirginMediaNews) reported 4 minutes ago

  Several videos of reckless driving remain available online, despite TikTok saying it is moving quickly to remove this type of content. Coimisiún na Meán has asked the platform for a “full account” of what has been done about material linked to the deaths of five teenage boys, after their car was driven the wrong way down the M9 motorway. 📺 More on Virgin Media PLAY

  Scarlett Shaw (@ScarlettShaw) reported 4 minutes ago

  Do yourself a favour. DO NOT use the one touch switch service with @SkyUK or @virginmedia. Still paying for both for weeks. Virgin continues to bill me despite me having sent back their equipment. The whole thing is a con. Be warned. @Ofcom

• 
  Andy Nicholls 🫧⚒️✝️ (@andy_nicks60) reported 6 minutes ago

  Well @virginmedia certainly have great customer service people that just feed you absolute lies about not stocking 360 boxes anymore then when they lose the argument they say you can’t have one because you’re not a new customer, and promptly end the conversation.

• 
  Mr Daryl T Catpiss (@DarylCatpiss) reported 6 minutes ago

  @virginmedia @TheAFC0522 Yeah what if I want to watch them on my big TV that I bought to watch my virgin media service on?

• 
  Stuart Fox (@StuartFox13) reported 8 minutes ago

  @CliveR39 @virginmedia When are virgin going to fix this problem been 7 days now couldn't watch games on red button at the weekend I pay them enough for a service I'm not receiving will I get any money back wake virgin or you will be losing my custom

• 
  Kaiser Soothsays (@_SonOfTheDesert) reported 11 minutes ago

  @virginmedia No. Because it’ll end up as a hard reset and we’ll lose all our recorded stuff. When are you going to bring out a box that saves content to the cloud? That way, there’d be no issue.

• 
  scfc 💙 (@Smallworth_xx) reported 12 minutes ago

  @virginmedia @TheAFC0522 Been like this since Friday so don’t act like it’s just today ? Do we get a bill reduction for numerous days without a service we pay for ?

• 
  Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported 14 minutes ago

  @1RavC @virginmedia I’ve been without broadband for 22 days but because they know it’s an outage in our area a @virginmedia engineer has been “on their way” since 27 July. Have pursued every available line of enquiry but no information as to what the ****** is the reason for it not being fixed

• 
  MozzaEV (@mozzaev) reported 15 minutes ago

  @virginmedia @Carolestfc1 I havelogged a complaint, as paying for service we aren't receiving from Virgin Media

• 
  Dmh (@Dmhches) reported 16 minutes ago

  @virginmedia the fact that the red button isn’t working for sky sports on your service means you’re not providing the serving I am paying for. Please confirm I am able to exit my contract with no penalties due to this
