  -BMiller- (@BMiller36990477) reported 4 minutes 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’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 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 It’s strange because the online help claims there’s no problem but the phone says there’s a major problem in the area. Perhaps the online help needs updating because it’s no help at all

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

  Aidan Carey (@Aidan1964) reported 35 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia I'm a new customer and cannot access my account. I've spoken to your customer service team a number of times and they haven't been able to sort my issue out. My account is tagged as a secondary account, but I'm the primary account holder!

  Nick Lawton (@Pontemiller) reported 39 minutes ago from Knottingley, England

  I think very soon I'll be saying 👋 to @ThreeUK and 🤝 to @virginmedia...over the last couple of years, the signal has got increasingly worse. I have just bought a new phone, but the problem persists...really unhappy.

  Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported 41 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  Anyone recommend a phone network been with @O2 for years and since it merged with @virginmedia it’s shocking. When I went on holiday before I’d never had problems this year wouldn’t let me go my own internet & here signal keeps going for phoning not to mention rise in scam calls

  Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported 43 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @vmbusiness strike yet again!😠 Not only are they charging me £7/month for 4G backup that doesn't work, they are now charging me £4 for paper bills that I never asked for. Oh, and still say I owe them money despite me overpaying due a to a red letter that they took by DD later

  @virginmedia That checker like my service doesn't work

  Adam (@tevowl9) reported 54 minutes ago 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 Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported 56 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @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

• 
  GiinaGii 🐱🌿 (@giinagii) reported 58 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia Third time it's been down today now. Yes completely down, we have no Internet at all. What other services do you mean? We only have broadband with you. Yes, I've booked but not until next week, we CAN NOT have this service for 3-5 days before someone comes out?!

  @virginmedia Hi guys. I received my landline adapter today. Problem is, you’re assuming the phone is near the hub. My hub is upstairs and my landline is downstairs. Is there a solution or am I just buggered?

  🛜 I’m safely back from the dentist’s 😷 (only a 6 monthly check-up and all was well) but now our internet is down and not likely to be resolved until 17:30! @virginmedia 👋 I can’t afford to use up all my mobile data chatting on social media so I’ll see you when if it’s sorted!

• 
  Kev (@victor50) reported 10 minutes ago

  @virginmedia So, 2 days, yes 2 days and the internet is down yet again. You have a very serious issue to sort out. You should be paying me to have your internet.
