    @virginmedia hi there! Do you have a customer support email address at all? Broadband customer here. I can’t get through on phone or live chat and need to discuss service issues and wish to downgrade service. Hope you can help!

  • slivaugh51 Sylvia (@slivaugh51) reported from Brampton Bierlow, England

    @virginmedia Had problems with our WiFi, engineer turned up at the door we asked shouldn’t he be wearing a mask 😷 he answered “nah we’ve run out” seriously Virgin you’re sending out engineers to peoples homes without masks!!!!

  • dale_beverley84 dale beverley (@dale_beverley84) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia why did you promise us broadband by today yet still an engineer has not been out to do the work then to install. This is shocking service.

  • stuartbquick Stuart Bolton (@stuartbquick) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia I’m not impressed. Switched for phone and broadband on 31st Aug. Telephone switch got rescheduled on the day of installation! Had to get existing provider to extend contract for 2wks. Broadband is constantly buffering and now gone down. @NOWTV @VodafoneUK better.

  • Reverand_dave Rev dave walker (@Reverand_dave) reported from Horbury, England

    @Ofcom why are you still allowing virgin media to provide intermittent tv, broadband and phone packages without punishment. In our area over the last two year they have provided an awful service. Constantly going down or intermittent. Horrible customer service.

  • gavinr77 Gavin Rees Dance (@gavinr77) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia YES - Finally, after 6 days of waiting online, and phoning and texting everyday. #VirginMedia, you need to sort out your after sales and customer service, it's horrendous!! Nobody should be left waiting for 6 days!!

  • Reverand_dave Rev dave walker (@Reverand_dave) reported from Horbury, England

    @virginmedia Its off more times than its on of late. I'm still getting an intermittent line issue on my bb which ive had pretty much from day one and the whole service goes off in wakefield/ dewsbury area at least once a week. Its off now.

  • cathd100 Cat Wasnidge (@cathd100) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia can you confirm the issues with wifi today in S62WG? Attemping to work from home is very difficult when the wifi keeps disconnecting. Virgin website says no issue!

    @virginmedia Unfortunately, that's where I started -> see the image in my initial tweet. It now says to 'Check back in 24 hours, + if there’s still an issue we’ll help you book a technician.' but it's been this way for weeks.. can we book in a tech now rather than go round in circles?
