  @virginmedia @O2 Its definitely you lot Robin as your broadband service was a disgrace when I moved to you and I had to pay out for cancelling contract early. If this is what’s to come O2 then you will a customer of over 15 years.

  Adam (@tevowl9) reported 19 minutes ago from Brinsworth, England

  @virginmedia on the phone for 30 minutes, WhatsApp message and technical support still not sorting us out! Oh but we can double what we pay and get a new hub!! New customers get it for £25

  Helen-Claire Stone (@Helen_Claire71) reported 23 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia’s customer service is appalling. 3 hours to respond to a message has to be the benchmark for worst practice. Last weekend it took them 27 hours to sort out cancelling my account. Absolutely hopeless.

  @virginmedia not good when my 82yr old mum was left with no phone service so no health emergency service and city wide alarm for the last 2 days.... not good enough !!!!

• 
  Callum 🏳️‍🌈 🔴⚪⚫ 🔰 (@Callum_SEND) reported 32 minutes ago from Brampton Bierlow, England

  @virginmedia I appreciate you trying to help. The issue is with the virgin contract being 18 months and the "new" o2 deal being 24 months and how this would impact as I looked to renegotiate in 18 months

  @virginmedia on hold for 40 mins so far just to get you to cancel a service I don't even want 🤬

• 
  Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported 42 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia ongoing intermittent issues with my broadband for weeks now and yet your website gives no option to get through to anyone to help despite it promising to do so. Keeps telling me to check back in 24 hours. Unacceptable level of service!

  Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported 45 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @PaulbernalUK @virginmedia It’s fine here but earlier in March we were left without any service for days at a time . The reason given was service upgrades. Ring them on 150 for an automated update

• 
  V-Bull (@VanceBulla) reported 47 minutes ago from Brampton Bierlow, England

  @virginmedia Faceless customer service. Can’t live chat, can’t chat to anyone on the phone. All they want to do is send you a text or a link to their website. Poor. What am I paying for? Certainly isn’t customer service

• 
  Padge 👌 (@AdamPagett3) reported 49 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

• 
  Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported 53 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  Slow glad to be moving from @virginmedia broadband this Friday. Their advertised speeds used to be unparalleled but since FTTP alternatives becoming available their appalling level of service and refusal to acknowledge or deal with faults has forced a once loyal customer

• 
  Abdullah Mulla (@a8dullah_mulla) reported 53 minutes ago from Heckmondwike, England

  @virginmedia somethings never change, £21 price increase can’t get you good customer service. Complaint logged for the second time, will I get response this time? 🤔

•

  @virginmedia our broadband down without warning and service update says you hope to fix this by 5th April! Why so long? We rely on this for work - unacceptable

  John Smith ⚒ 🇬🇧 (@JohnSmi34115189) reported 14 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I still haven't forgiven @virginmedia for forcing me to update from my old box. Didn't send the correct kit to actually be able to install it, and then charged me for an enigineer to fix their problem. Now this nonsense
