• 
  Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported 4 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia I do need assistance over why the 4G backup didn't kick in when I had an outage last week but I've raised that with you already, I hope

• 
  Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported 9 minutes ago from Wombwell, England

  @virginmedia And I can’t raise a complaint on the site without having an account, which I don’t have, so that is a pointless endeavour as well

• 
  Karen Walsh (@kaw7676) reported 12 minutes ago from Normanton, England

  @virginmedia it’s impossible to contact them with a complaint if you aren’t a customer.

  Ryan Wilson (@rywilnot) reported 12 minutes ago from Darton, England

  @SkyHelpTeam broadband this week has been shocking. Following the help and test in the app says all is well (funny that). Not really sure what I’m paying for. Back to @virginmedia

  @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

  Callum 🏳️‍🌈 🔴⚪⚫ 🔰 (@Callum_SEND) reported 15 minutes ago from Brampton Bierlow, England

  @virginmedia @virginmedia @O2 if you're going to sell merged packages to your customers then you really need to improve your joint customer service.. just batting me back to the other without an answer is simply unacceptable

• 
  The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported 19 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia I've checked and definitely not entitled due to the amount of days with no service. Like I said, a good will gesture. People who are working from home haven't been able to work for a start. Only been with you a few weeks and have nothing but issues.

  @virginmedia hello, my grandmother is having issues with her TiVo Box, she's checked the cables and I've been online to check for service outage, and there's isn't any reported Can you help?

• 
  Claire Stewart (@chococlaire77) reported 21 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  Well @virginmedia what a waste of our time today,we booked an engineer in the time slot 8-12,and nobody arrived I’m afraid.Tried contacting you,and can’t get through...can anyone help?

• 
  Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported 23 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

  Debbie 💜 🦋🦉 (@DeborahTaylor3) reported 23 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

• 
  Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported 23 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @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

• 
  Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported 31 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @StueyDay @virginmedia @lionsgateplusuk The service is awful and customers find it too hard to get a prompt response. Last time this happened it took at least 8-10 emails before they got past the automated letter asking me to switch off, reboot and check all the connections.

• 
  Debbie 💜 🦋🦉 (@DeborahTaylor3) reported 33 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia what's the issue with answering a call? Line went dead, my mum can't receive incoming texts and is due an upgrade. Your customer service is terrible, God only knows what will happen when I call for TV

• 
  Jules Tee (@xjuewx) reported 37 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @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 !!!!

• 
  Andrew English (@andy_english) reported 42 minutes 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.

• 
  Abdullah Mulla (@a8dullah_mulla) reported 45 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? 🤔

• 
  Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported 56 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!

  @virginmedia be nice if my internet didnt keep going down ever since you put my price up to £70 a month

  twocakesdakes (@2cakesdakes) reported 9 minutes ago

  @virginmedia why does your call centre phone me about 3 times a day then just hang up when I answer?

• 
  Mike T (@Tutts558) reported 15 minutes ago

  @fia I can rewind my Virgin Media to show you Max breaking the rules. Why can't you ? It effects the result, and other teams responses to what you do. You clearly favour him. Terrible decision.

• 
  Nicholas Rawlings (@nick_rawlings2) reported 18 minutes ago

  @virginmedia #virginmedia are there any issues in the Orpington area? Broadband keeps dropping out. There's nothing on your status page.

• 
  It's mom not mum (@rchcool) reported 21 minutes ago

  @virginmedia 3rd time this week our broadband is down, no explanation has been given each time only “an outage has been identified” and it takes at least a day to repair. What is the reason? I need to work from home this week and receive the service I am paying for.

  Tillymint67 (@evon67) reported 21 minutes ago

  @virginmedia my media box is not showing the app icons. Is the a problem in WA7 uk area 20

• 
  Casilda Malagon (@casilda1) reported 22 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I have been without broadband since 9 am today and website still doesn’t have an eta for fix. Any info? All I see is “Our engineers are on the case to fix the issue in your area. Check back later for updates”. #notgoodenough
