  Chirpy Frances (@chirpyfrances) reported 29 seconds ago from Wakefield, England

  Been through 16 mths of lockdown, 3 working from home & hardly a glitch on the broadband. Last 8wks its gone down for several minutes a day between 10am and 1pm. Only on weekdays & its supposed to be a problem with our hub, really? An engineer could find it @virginmedia #shoddy

  Claire Stewart (@chococlaire77) reported 5 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?

  Martin Spiers (@martinaspiers) reported 13 minutes ago from Oughtibridge, England

  @virginmedia That would appear only to relate to your services? I'm not a customer (except via 02).

  Helen-Claire Stone (@Helen_Claire71) reported 14 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @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.

  V-Bull (@VanceBulla) reported 15 minutes ago 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

  @pauldevine1986 @virginmedia We are still down in S7. Nearly 24 hours now. Saying 2pm is the updated fix time. But that keeps getting pushed back 🙄😡

  I’m gonna stop having days off because every time I do the WiFi seems to be down #VirginMedia

  Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported 25 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia Oh yes and I’ve phoned. It appears to be that yesterday’s problems haven’t been resolved.

• 
  Callum 🏳️‍🌈 🔴⚪⚫ 🔰 (@Callum_SEND) reported 28 minutes ago from Brampton Bierlow, England

  @virginmedia I appreciate you trying to help. The issue is with the virgin contract being 18 months and the "new" o2 deal being 24 months and how this would impact as I looked to renegotiate in 18 months

• 
  Richard Gladwin (@rwgladwin) reported 34 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

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

• 
  Mark Hewitt (@Hi1mMark88) reported 41 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia broadband service has dropped out in Sheffield (s5) any know issues or reasons why this has happened. Service checker isn’t giving any information

  Debbie 💜 🦋🦉 (@DeborahTaylor3) reported 43 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

  @virginmedia Thanks for absolutely no help what so ever. Please fix your issues

• 
  Debbie 💜 🦋🦉 (@DeborahTaylor3) reported 47 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

• 
  Abdullah Mulla (@a8dullah_mulla) reported 48 minutes ago from Dewsbury, England

  @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!!!

• 
  John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported 48 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia No problem, and thank you for sorting it out quickly. May be worth making sure telephone staff tell customers about call out charges as I had no idea they applied in this situation.

• 
  Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported 53 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

• 
  Padge 👌 (@AdamPagett3) reported 54 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia do you not have reasonable adjustments in place for disabled people? I visited a shop today and was told by the manager that they do not and just kept saying I have to phone a number. It seems like your company is only interested in grabbing money regardless service

• 
  Dobbin1957 (@dobbin1957) reported 9 minutes ago

  @waughzone @virginmedia Agreed. Our broadband, TV, and landline has been off for 36 hours and won’t be back for another 24!! Chirpy but infrequent and meaningless communication from Virgin to tell me how hard they are trying to fix the problem whilst continually delaying the time it will be fixed.

• 
  Drackard (@Drackard) reported 9 minutes ago

  Virgin Media genuinely have to be one of the worst companies in existence. A no show on an engineer, three days in a row.

• 
  Keivin Crane (@kcranebda) reported 9 minutes ago

  @virginmedia At you can see, attention to detail has been missed within this response. My name is spelled wrong. Why am I not surprised. I’ve contacted their customer service 4 times and even walked into stores. It is still not resolved. They should reach out to me. #not-impressed

• 
  Foredeck (@Foredeck99) reported 11 minutes ago

  @virginmedia When I repeatedly, politely tell your tele sales team to remove my name from your calling list they fail to do so, I am sometimes getting multiple daily calls from you. Execrable customer service, 0/10.

  Robb Pickard (@PourMeAGin) reported 18 minutes ago

  @skytv never met a system so unfit for purpose. The latency on Sky Glass causing freezing is awful. To be told no solution is BS. Cannot wait for contract to be over so can leave. Maybe @virginmedia will make a decent offer to rejoin.
