  @virginmedia what’s going on with internet service in HD8 area ? I don’t want to have to wait 23 hours before calling a technician as advised by your service page

  Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported 6 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

  @virginmedia No one has informed me of this, I feel I have been misold again very poor. No one mentioned this previously I have been told it was a new promotional that was added, so again alot of tosh. Does anyone know what they are doing at virgin.

  @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.

  @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? 🤔

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

  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

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

  @virginmedia Oh yes and I’ve phoned. It appears to be that yesterday’s problems haven’t been resolved.

  @virginmedia 7 days and still no @O2 resolution

  Nick Lawton (@Pontemiller) reported 41 minutes ago from Knottingley, England

  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.

  @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?

• 
  John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported 50 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia I’ve had that email. I’ve also had another email this morning saying they’re sorry to hear I’m unhappy with my broadband speed. I’m not! I’m unhappy with a call out charge being applied, which was promised to be reversed and never has been!

  I’m gonna stop having days off because every time I do the WiFi seems to be down #VirginMedia

  Coincidence that BT & EE has been selling broadband all day in area and now my @virginmedia is down.

  Reading all the tweets from you idiots who haven't got unlimited 5g hotspot. Been paying for this for years. For this very moment. **** you #virginmedia

  Ed Foster (@EJJFoster) reported 59 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia I have tried the status but its saying the service is fine. Yet all the people on out estate are complaining they cannot get onto Virgin internet. We cannot book an engineer as isolating. Why is it constantly broken or speeds so slow?

  @OliverGMcManus @virginmedia @MartinSLewis honestly think you should help put more pressure on broadband providers. The fact this person has been without broadband for several weeks and can't leave without paying a exit fee is ridiculous.

• 
  GB Food Finder (@britfoodfinder) reported 8 minutes ago

  @LivThms @virginmedia That’s terrible. I find it quite unbelievable that @virginmedia will not accept this is a widespread problem and are not even admitting so, let alone try to resolve it for us all. How can we be expected to remain customers without the means to access our accounts?

• 
  Chezza O (@LonelyLondoner) reported 12 minutes ago

  @virginmedia 1. Router just loses network every few hours. So I come back from work and have to turn the router off and on. What an upgrade!!!! 2. Reconnecting takes 5 minutes which in itself is a nightmare stealing my joy. This was not the exciting upgrade Inexpected

  Jonnie (@JonnieBoyRacer) reported 29 minutes ago

  @OliverGMcManus @virginmedia That can’t be right. Send a letter complaining the contract has been frustrated by the lack of service

• 
  Humans Being Clever (@HBG_CLEVER) reported 29 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I’ve now been told SEVEN times that an incorrect final bill charge would be removed, yet it’s still showing and I’m still chasing. Account no. 223578504. Please issue a corrected final bill and confirm no collections/credit impact, or I’ll contact the ombudsman

  Like you cannot make this BS up am sick of how bad @virginmedia are. Clearly your automatic systems are busted. And you're making staff do double work to fix ITS problems
