  Andrew English (@andy_english) reported 32 seconds ago from Dewsbury, England

  @LordTets @virginmedia Go to Ofcom... you have clearly given them ample time on numerous occasions to resolve your complaint. Life is too short to spend your time waiting for promised calls and web chats... let the ombudsman deal with them.

  @vmbusiness strike yet again!😠 Not only are they charging me £7/month for 4G backup that doesn't work, they are now charging me £4 for paper bills that I never asked for. Oh, and still say I owe them money despite me overpaying due a to a red letter that they took by DD later

  @O2PriorityUK I’m struggling to connect with app. I’m a @virginmedia account holder. Initial you sent me a code but via my mobile. Now my phone number is placed in the box it doesn’t recognise it. Help?

  @virginmedia Sure, office this morning at about 8am. No service and Internet access by 9.30M and popped back late morning and still nothing around 10.45am. So finished my admin at home with my own broadband connection. Didn't call or raise the issue as its a pointless exercise. Cheers

  @virginmedia I've emailed MD and they called me within the hour and sorted my issue out within 10 minutes. You should be ashamed of yourselves

  Aidan Carey (@Aidan1964) reported 29 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia I'm a new customer and cannot access my account. I've spoken to your customer service team a number of times and they haven't been able to sort my issue out. My account is tagged as a secondary account, but I'm the primary account holder!

  Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported 30 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

  @virginmedia @Virgin Terrible service

  Amanda Brightmore (@mandybaps1) reported 36 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia Useless you haven't addressed my points. I will go directly to the managing director Lutz Schueler. Really disappointed and I woukd have expected better considering I have been a loyal customer.

  The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported 38 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia all services in the WF1 area of Wakefield have been down all day and looking like 6pm to be fixed. Will you be applying any credit to people's accounts?? Good will gesture and all that! #wakefield

  @virginmedia Well I don't know if the problem has been restored at virgins end I received help and advice from an outside source who showed show me how to work around the problem with manual DNS entries. But for me, working now. Thanks.

  Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported 45 minutes ago from Barnsley, England

  @virginmedia I’ve run test after test, at least 5-6 outages a month for last 2 years. Horrendous service and this is the final straw unless you offer me a refund of say £20 a month for last two years, if not I’m going BT and a dodgy box from Mad Frank in pub

  Debbie 💜 🦋🦉 (@DeborahTaylor3) reported 54 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia I hung up the call, rang back and spoke with a lovely man. Reset my email, password and answered all my quedtions. All the men are when you call, the female was awful. But thank you for the response

  Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported 59 minutes ago from Barnsley, England

  @virginmedia you are aware that a lot of older, more vulnerable people have had alarm and safety devices installed that depend on a safe, fast, reliable service. The one that they, like, you know pay a lot of money for

  @virginmedia The worst service provider ever ! This is the final straw ! You steal people’s money !

  Louise Boxall (@Louiseboxall) reported 10 minutes ago

  @virginmedia M43 area…. error code W02…. Did what virgin suggested and just blank channels….. this is getting ridiculous….. can’t watch tv when I’m sure Virgin will want payment for a service my parents can’t access half the month….

  Keith A Pearson (@keithapearson) reported 10 minutes ago

  Genuinely, if there's a more incompetent company in the UK than @virginmedia, I'd be amazed. How a company can treat customers so abysmally and continue to operate is beyond me. No wonder they lock us into two-year contracts. 🤬 @MartinSLewis - I hope you've got a file open on Virgin Media.

• 
  TB (@Peerabeee) reported 11 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I can't send direct messages right now; I've shared all the information, I don't understand why you keep asking for DMs. Please cancel my contract immediately due to the service you're failing to provide. @Ofcom #VirginMedia #Ofcom #Broadband

  William Bell (@Wmb1877) reported 12 minutes ago

  @Just_Katie_x @virginmedia Had a similar problem with them years when cancelling due to moving house. Absolutely useless would never use them again.

• 
  Tom Edwards (@BBCTomEdwards) reported 13 minutes ago

  Interesting mobile data from @virginmedia show some Londoners staying away due to #tubestrike : •The City is down by 16% •King's Cross is down by 8% •The West End is down by 6% •Westminster is down by 11%

  mary32 (@marypaul32) reported 16 minutes ago

  @nightsong53 @virginmedia Definitely deliberate. Customer service simply does not exist anymore.

• 
  JacquieB 💚🤍💜 (@callderone) reported 17 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 18 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

  @virginmedia Ok but I’ve watched it all on firestick so might help others but not me 👍🏻
