  Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported 2 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  Slow glad to be moving from @virginmedia broadband this Friday. Their advertised speeds used to be unparalleled but since FTTP alternatives becoming available their appalling level of service and refusal to acknowledge or deal with faults has forced a once loyal customer

  @virginmedia the cheek or virgin media staff complain about virgin router dropping out constantly call raise a complaint and tell them router is disconnected from network and request a hub 4 as been told this is what’s needed I get told I have to upgrade to 1 gig for new router

  Jamie Whalley (@jamiewhalley87) reported 25 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia I have been trying to get through to your cancellations department since Saturday. In total, I have been on hold for 3 hours. 1 hour intervals before you cut me off. Your txt service is SH*T. Your agent introduced himself as working for Three, before he disconnected

• 
  Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported 27 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia awful and aggressive scare tactics from your not so friendly cancellations rep when trying to cancel my service. God help any vulnerable person that tries to do the same thing. Shameful

  @virginmedia you must have the most unreliable internet service in the UK. Several times a year it goes down for a full working day. Again today, "Unplanned Outage" yet your van was here within seconds. Unplanned my arse. Compensate my loss of earnings! #poorService

  Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported 32 minutes ago from Barnsley, England

  @virginmedia I’ve run test after test, at least 5-6 outages a month for last 2 years. Horrendous service and this is the final straw unless you offer me a refund of say £20 a month for last two years, if not I’m going BT and a dodgy box from Mad Frank in pub

  -BMiller- (@BMiller36990477) reported 33 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

  @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness Thanks. The 4G backup not working since the service was installed

  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

  Gary Fretwell (@GaryFretwell1) reported 49 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @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

  Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported 51 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

  Captain_red_waffle (@Cptredwaffle) reported 4 minutes ago

  @virginmedia 3rd street-wide outage this year in LS6 tonight. Surveyors have confirmed my property is infra-locked with zero Openreach/Altnet access. Virgin holds a total monopoly here, yet the local street infrastructure is failing. Shambolic really, I need this escalating.

• 
  Openreach (@WeAreOpenreach) reported 4 minutes ago

  @RDadpour Good Morning Reza, Thanks for contacting Openreach today regarding your query, If you have not used a provider that uses the Openreach network for more then 2 year (i.e. City Fibre/ Virgin Media) What happens the address gets de-activated from our network but it will still (1/2)

  @virginmedia well done - you fix the issue then it’s broken again so back to no services again and of course your lines are closed so no way of calling
