  @KevEdwardsRetro I've been with them for years (Yorkshire Cable before that) but changed to the @vmbusiness service to get 4G backup only to find that it doesn't work when their device is in modem mode. Unable to get through to them though - worst support/customer service I've ever experienced

  @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

  @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!!!

  @O2PriorityUK I’m struggling to connect with app. I’m a @virginmedia account holder. Initial you sent me a code but via my mobile. Now my phone number is placed in the box it doesn’t recognise it. Help?

  Oliver Dean #TeamLH (@ollieinleeds) reported 47 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @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

  Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported 49 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @StueyDay @virginmedia @lionsgateplusuk The service is awful and customers find it too hard to get a prompt response. Last time this happened it took at least 8-10 emails before they got past the automated letter asking me to switch off, reboot and check all the connections.

  John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported 55 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.

  Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported 56 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  Dad got rushed to hospital still in and @O2 connection is still not working in my house or mums @virginmedia mobile same problem (according to there test it’s fine) well try using it here especially when a loved one is ill and you can’t even connect a phone call &it’s a main road

• 
  The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported 60 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia I've checked and definitely not entitled due to the amount of days with no service. Like I said, a good will gesture. People who are working from home haven't been able to work for a start. Only been with you a few weeks and have nothing but issues.

  Frazzz (@FrazzzYT) reported 11 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Oh it's eligible when the internet has been literally off for days and still says no fix. There was two weeks of up and down. Then it went off for half a day as you were "fixing it" now tis completely been off for days. Like come on now what am I paying for?

• 
  Tweetledumb (@xueshang) reported 16 minutes ago

  @libertyglobal please ask @virginmedia why they sent me a new TB box without any remote to control it. (Finally they say will send one to reach me "in 5 business days" - keep paying for the service throughout this time!)

• 
  hockeymum#5 (@Hockeymum5) reported 17 minutes ago

  So @virginmedia send me a new hub router coz my old one needed a "boost" and it's worse! Can't even mirror my phone to TV to play a short video for buffering, jumping, stopping which I NEVER had an issue doing with my old router! Pointless "upgrade", want my old router back!

  Roy Cadge (@RoyCadge) reported 17 minutes ago

  @Brand_Concierge @virginmedia Good choice to return kit, they don't give a return box go to your O2 shop, they will scan it and send an email straight away, KEEP EMAIL! they will try and say you never returned and keep changing you also make sure the account is closed and demand your data removed!

• 
  Duncan Waugh (@waughzone) reported 19 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Your customer service is a disgrace. I have had intermittent broadband for 4 weeks but you make it almost impossible to get it fixed. I finally managed to connect to a human on a chat who was next to useless and then sent me an email to say everything was resolved.

• 
  OMF (@exolon) reported 26 minutes ago

  @FractalDoctor I called Virgin Media the other day and had to spend 5 minutes shouting slowly at an almost useless AI, before being passed to the loudest call centre in India where they tried to upsell me a mobile phone plan before accepting my instruction to end a broadband service. Greed.

  The absolute consensus among Irish mainstream media on every single issue is remarkable. Across RTE, the Irish Times, The Journal, The (hilariously misnamed) Independent, Virgin Media etc. there’s no diversity of thought, no discord, no dissent on any matter. How is this possible

  Any recommendations for the best internet provider? Moving into a new build in a couple of weeks so trying to get it sorted ASAP, always been with Virgin Media but they don’t provide service in the area!
