  @virginmedia please sort the Sky Red button issue which is preventing Sheffield United fans subscribed to Virgin from experiencing the service they've paid for.

  @virginmedia I appreciate your advice, but rather than ask fellow customers for a fix I’d rather hope @virginmedia trained staff would be able to rectify this issue. I’ll try the forum, but this is not the way to run a business….@Ofcom

  @virginmedia’s customer service is appalling. 3 hours to respond to a message has to be the benchmark for worst practice. Last weekend it took them 27 hours to sort out cancelling my account. Absolutely hopeless.

  @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!!!

  Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported 34 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

  The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported 51 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia do you care to give an update regarding services being down in the WF1 area of Wakefield? You estimate keeps changing which is becoming really annoying!! Literally 1000s of households without an Internet connection. #wakefield #poorservice

  @virginmedia very unhappy failed install and had no service since Saturday and I'm within my 14 days to cancel yet your staff don't understand this and want to charge me for a fault call !! When do you become so crap !!!

• 
  lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported 53 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia hi virgin can you explain why you've referred me to a debt collection agency after I cancelled my service within 14 days snd returned equipment as it was a failed install and was advised I wouldn't be charged ? You also luckily never cancelled my sky .

  @virginmedia My broadband hasn't been working since around 11am today. All week, Virgin has said that work was due to be completed in my area around 11:15am today. It's now saying that the Hub is the problem. I've restarted and reset it, but it's still not working 🤬

  parody of a parody of a parody of nothing (@emnm69backup) reported 18 minutes ago

  Hey @virginmedia Why are there constant broadband issues in the fy4 area? Regular cut offs. At least half a dozen times so far this month. Contract to soon, so maybe time to switch if you can't provide a reliable service. Ps,your chat bot is also as useless as your broadband.

• 
  GW (@GGWilliams72) reported 18 minutes ago

  @virginmedia @mthewett I had Stream Box and Broadband set up yesterday. Neither working today, tried Cust Serv’s on hold over 45 mins and still no answer! These people are as garbage as their services, spend your money elsewhere. I’m going back to @SkyUK 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

  Philip Drury (@septembercott) reported 24 minutes ago

  Now I see why Virgin Media is scored so badly for customer service. They ask you to DM, which takes you to a useless Chat Bot! Pointless @virginmedia

  Virgin Media News (@VirginMediaNews) reported 24 minutes ago

  Prince Harry, Elton John and five others have been ordered to pay an initial £9.5 million to the publisher of Britain’s Daily Mail following their failed privacy case. The group had accused the publisher of unlawful information gathering - claims it denied. The judge found there was insufficient evidence to support the claims and said there was a possibility the reporting came from legitimate sources. The £9.5 million payment must be made by August 28.
