    Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported 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

    Amanda Brightmore (@mandybaps1) reported 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.

    @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

    @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness Thanks. The 4G backup not working since the service was installed

  • EJJFoster
    Ed Foster (@EJJFoster) reported 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?

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

    What an absolute shower of shite service as usual from @virginmedia they literally couldn’t care any less

  • tevowl9
    Adam (@tevowl9) reported 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

  • andy_english
    Andrew English (@andy_english) reported 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.

  • ArmitageJohn
    John Armitage (@ArmitageJohn) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia hi guys, I’ve been without TV services for over two weeks now. Every attempt to@reach you has me going around in circles. Tried the app. Doesn’t recognise my email, and doesn’t recognise my acct no + area ref. Please help. Can I talk to someone?!!

  • guyrleech
    Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported 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

  • Chm14Mc
    Chris McCulloch (@Chm14Mc) reported from Wakefield, England

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

  • VanceBulla
    V-Bull (@VanceBulla) reported 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

  • ollieinleeds
    Oliver Dean #TeamLH (@ollieinleeds) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia you must have the most unreliable internet service in the UK. Several times a year it goes down for a full working day. Again today, "Unplanned Outage" yet your van was here within seconds. Unplanned my arse. Compensate my loss of earnings! #poorService

  • DeborahTaylor3
    Debbie 💜 🦋🦉 (@DeborahTaylor3) reported 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

    Bryn (@bryn14181) reported

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia Like people have said you’ll be back to Sky within 2 years. Me and the Mrs had Virgin we were paying something like £87 a month for the full package come renewal price they wanted £213 a month for the same package claiming the £87 was a new customer only deal

  • Joeparki
    Joe Parkinson (@Joeparki) reported

    @virginmedia can you confirm if broadband is down in WN3 area?

  • Mickelgarth
    Silver age (@Mickelgarth) reported

    @virginmedia we have had poor internet here for at least a month, if not more. Tonight it is dropping out time and again. Your service is becoming very shoddy. How can I claim conpensation?

  • BroadlandPirate
    Norfolk1850. 🏴‍☠️ (@BroadlandPirate) reported

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia Same with the AA. Stay with them & your payment doubles. Moved to the RAC as new customer. Next year I'll move back to the AA as a new customer.

  • Borochubster
    Al Murray Jnr🔴 (@Borochubster) reported

    @MartinSLewis Virgin media have a call back team. You actually have to cancel your contract, then they call you back within 2 weeks and that's when you get the best deals.

  • MrXenoGaming
    Andrew Conway (@MrXenoGaming) reported

    @VirginMediaIE Seems Virgin Media is down in Tallaght?

  • andrewtalbot72
    Andy T (@andrewtalbot72) reported

    @virginmedia @gblondon1 Good luck with that….!!! I did the same 18 months ago… after 4 months of Virgin messing up my bills I moved back to @skytv The call centres are simply the worst I’ve ever encountered A much better service imo…

  • AniaSowinski
    Ania Sowinski (@AniaSowinski) reported

    @virginmedia I have an engineer booked but no one can come out until tomorrow! I have sent you a dM to no response. I have called Virgin TWICE but they say there is nothing they can do. All was FINE until you had an engineer out on our road doing something yesterday. Everything went down

  • epwhamilton
    Edward Hamilton (@epwhamilton) reported

    @virginmedia You've also texted cancelling the engineer that I'd booked because it's a network issue, but again I have no information. Hence the frustration

  • ImproperFooty
    Eddy James (@ImproperFooty) reported

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia Sky is awful. Treat their long term customers terribly. Was paying a fortune for sky sports & they pack it with you tubers. I'm not paying £80 to watch some **** I can already watch for free but don't! IPTV all the way now 👍
