  -BMiller- (@BMiller36990477) reported 26 seconds ago from Sheffield, England

  @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 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

  @virginmedia @lionsgateplusuk Wish I could enjoy this but my so called 500mb service is so poor I’ve virtually been without internet for a week. Finally your team viewed it as urgent because I do work from home on Zoom and…an engineer is coming on Tuesday. When BT Reach put full fibre in my area it’s bye bye

  @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 !!!!

  Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported 14 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 @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

  @virginmedia That checker like my service doesn't work

• 
  Andrew English (@andy_english) reported 22 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.

  Andy Shelton (@SheltonAndy) reported 22 minutes ago from Heckmondwike, England

  Absolutely disgraceful service from @virginmedia again. If I could change I would! Do not go with them if you have a choice!!

  Richard Gladwin (@rwgladwin) reported 28 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia were there issues in S9 around 1020 this morning?

• 
  Claire 💙 (@ClaireWinslade) reported 36 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  Moved to @virginmedia on Monday and router didn’t come. Then when it came Wednesday the internet wouldn’t connect. After 7 phone calls and an engineer called out it’s still not working 😡 and it seems if you are on hold for too long they just cut you off. So frustrating

• 
  The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported 37 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

  Andrew Lee (@goonie2008) reported 37 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia @O2 Its definitely you lot Robin as your broadband service was a disgrace when I moved to you and I had to pay out for cancelling contract early. If this is what’s to come O2 then you will a customer of over 15 years.

  lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported 39 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @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

  @virginmedia Yes it’s signal and tried o2 got nowhere xx thanks for the reply

  Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported 53 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!

  Bob Price - bobsrailrelics (@Huxleypiguk) reported 55 seconds ago

  Another two tries today. One I had to give up after 55 minutes waiting, now on 44 minutes. Seriously @virginmedia you are now a joke. Was just going to cancel my TV, I am seriously looking up Broadband alternatives while on hold.

  @virginmedia I’ve been on phone trying to speak to someone for over an hour waiting / web chat is not not working - what is going on

• 
  Carole Winter (@CaroleWinter) reported 2 minutes ago

  @virginmedia please answer the phone. You are one broken system

• 
  Chris Hobbs (@obbsie) reported 4 minutes ago

  @virginmedia For fours hours I've been holding for customer service and listening to the same piece of dire muzak over and over again. Across SM I see nothing but complaints about customer service & a failure to respond. This surely isn't good enough.

• 
  Sean Redmond (@seanpaulguitar) reported 6 minutes ago

  @virginmedia @Dominiho7 Just leave it they scrap them anyway. They ALL have vulnerable exploited intel chips in them that they never patched and keep refusing to admit

• 
  lisa kitching (@lisakitching1) reported 7 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I literally tried all day yesterday to get through to someone, web chat and WhatsApp weren’t working . How are we supposed to get support if can’t contact anyone

• 
  GarethYOURCXC (@GarethYOURCXC) reported 13 minutes ago

  @OCP_84 @virginmedia @tntsports That is just bonkers! Clearly "valuable" is being used in the wrong context. Their 'new' acquisition numbers are more important that long term customer loyalty/value.

  Jess (@jseviour14) reported 17 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I am a new customer and your services are not turning on!! Cannot get through to anyone to speak to, I am thinking of cancelling and going back to my old provider

  @AsstVirginmedia @princehowl_ This is an automated response. Zoe doesn’t exist. Virgin media is crap.
