  I think very soon I'll be saying 👋 to @ThreeUK and 🤝 to @virginmedia...over the last couple of years, the signal has got increasingly worse. I have just bought a new phone, but the problem persists...really unhappy.

  @virginmedia No problem, and thank you for sorting it out quickly. May be worth making sure telephone staff tell customers about call out charges as I had no idea they applied in this situation.

  @virginmedia failed install which worked for 2 hours and I cancelled within 14 days . I've now got a a bill for £62 ! Your staff just cut me off and I'm disabled and need help

  Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported 36 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia It’s strange because the online help claims there’s no problem but the phone says there’s a major problem in the area. Perhaps the online help needs updating because it’s no help at all

  @KevEdwardsRetro I've been with them for years (Yorkshire Cable before that) but changed to the @vmbusiness service to get 4G backup only to find that it doesn't work when their device is in modem mode. Unable to get through to them though - worst support/customer service I've ever experienced

  Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported 50 minutes ago from Wombwell, England

  @virginmedia I’m trying to resolve an issue with your collections team regarding an incorrect default and because I no longer bank with the same account and do not have those details, they won’t talk to me, yet they are happy to just take money off me without telling me why. It’s disgusting

  Gary Steele (@steeleygash) reported 50 minutes ago from Barnsley, England

  @virginmedia why is the red button on sky sports football not working no option to watch the live games ?? Poor service

• 
  Jamie Whalley (@jamiewhalley87) reported 50 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia I have been trying to get through to your cancellations department since Saturday. In total, I have been on hold for 3 hours. 1 hour intervals before you cut me off. Your txt service is SH*T. Your agent introduced himself as working for Three, before he disconnected

  Sky sports red button not working with @virginmedia there’s a shock

  @virginmedia as a rejoining customer, how do I set up an account with my old accounts e-mail address? #gettingstuck #shouldbeeasier

  Abdullah Mulla (@a8dullah_mulla) reported 56 minutes ago from Dewsbury, England

  @virginmedia well done 👏🏽 new way of resolving complaints! Offer a resolution that you know customer won’t accept so you can pass on to an adjudicator… all in a record time of 8mins!!!

  Claire 💙 (@ClaireWinslade) reported 56 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  Moved to @virginmedia on Monday and router didn’t come. Then when it came Wednesday the internet wouldn’t connect. After 7 phone calls and an engineer called out it’s still not working 😡 and it seems if you are on hold for too long they just cut you off. So frustrating

  Paul David Phillips (@paul_phillips83) reported 60 minutes ago from Barnsley, England

  @virginmedia the cheek or virgin media staff complain about virgin router dropping out constantly call raise a complaint and tell them router is disconnected from network and request a hub 4 as been told this is what’s needed I get told I have to upgrade to 1 gig for new router

  I’m trying to cancel Netflix but now I have to call virgin media because it’s through them I’ll be back in six hours once I’m off the phone

• 
  Ady Carter (@IsitAdy) reported 9 minutes ago

  @virginmedia It finally came back online during the #europeancup penalty shootout. Missed most of the final. But it’s not the first time we’ve had problems in this area. Very frustrating

• 
  Ravinandan Pratap Singh (@RavinandnSingh) reported 9 minutes ago

  @VirginMediaIE @virginmedia Still they have not resolved the issue. They charged over payment for 4 months and refunded only 2 months. Also no compensation for this fault. Is this how you are making money?

• 
  Brandon Fletcher (@FletchLCFC92) reported 10 minutes ago

  @virginmedia why don’t you lot just leave stuff alone! Updated my tv box and now it don’t work… Shock!! Time to look at moving to sky instead of your overpriced **** stuff!!

• 
  JacquieB 💚🤍💜 (@callderone) reported 15 minutes ago

  @virginmedia why can’t you cancel or reduce your package online? @Ofcom is it legal to try and delay any attempt to cancel your TV package by failing to respond to requests on messaging apps or keeping you holding on a call for hours?

• 
  Mad Cyril (@salford_red_ste) reported 19 minutes ago

  @virginmedia It’s ok I think the messages have stopped now the office is closed. One of the worst experiences ever and I won’t use the WhatsApp messaging again as it obviously isn’t fit for purpose

•

• 
  Pickle (@PickleSchmickle) reported 22 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I’ve been trying to contact you for 3 days, to replace a hub as the current one has no power and the power cord that is broken seemingly doesn’t exist for a Hub 4. No internet for 4 days. What do you suggest we do next to get someone’s attention? #virginmedia

  kaan #freeimamoglu (@laankaan) reported 24 minutes ago

  @virginmedia So should I check your outage page daily to see if I’m getting the service I’m already being overcharged for? It took 30 minutes to talk to someone btw. Also; scaring people to overpriced renewals 6 months in advance is DISGUSTING.
