• 
  Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported 39 seconds ago from Sheffield, England

  @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

  Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported 7 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

  @Condieflyy My virgin media went down this morning too 👀

• 
  Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported 10 minutes ago from Wombwell, England

  @virginmedia How do I open a complaint then, because I’m still stuck on the phone with her and she is refusing to let me make my complaint.

  Ryan Wilson (@rywilnot) reported 12 minutes ago from Darton, England

  @SkyHelpTeam broadband this week has been shocking. Following the help and test in the app says all is well (funny that). Not really sure what I’m paying for. Back to @virginmedia

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

  @PaulbernalUK @virginmedia It’s fine here but earlier in March we were left without any service for days at a time . The reason given was service upgrades. Ring them on 150 for an automated update

  @virginmedia hi guys, I’ve been without TV services for over two weeks now. Every attempt to@reach you has me going around in circles. Tried the app. Doesn’t recognise my email, and doesn’t recognise my acct no + area ref. Please help. Can I talk to someone?!!

  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

  Paul David Phillips (@paul_phillips83) reported 38 minutes ago from Barnsley, England

  @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

  @virginmedia what’s going on with internet service in HD8 area ? I don’t want to have to wait 23 hours before calling a technician as advised by your service page

• 
  Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported 43 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

• 
  Nick Lawton (@Pontemiller) reported 52 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.

  @virginmedia I've emailed MD and they called me within the hour and sorted my issue out within 10 minutes. You should be ashamed of yourselves

• 
  Amanda Brightmore (@mandybaps1) reported 54 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia Useless you haven't addressed my points. I will go directly to the managing director Lutz Schueler. Really disappointed and I woukd have expected better considering I have been a loyal customer.

  @virginmedia So how do i go about reporting an SNR upstream Area fault now? the forums have been shut down which always handled it before but now ive been stuck with this causing packet loss since early June.

• 
  Chris Love (@chrislove_89) reported 2 minutes ago

  @andy_mac21 @virginmedia You’re right Andy, just a couple of responses from “Core Claim Support” which clearly isn’t affiliated with the actual company and is some spammer/scammer trying to get me to DM them my details. They don’t care.

• 
  Abbie (@abz_06) reported 3 minutes ago

  @virginmedia You could send someone to Mars and back in the time it’s taking you to fix this. What issue could be so big that takes two whole weeks to fix? You’re a billion pound company. Not good enough.

• 
  Dan (@dannog_8) reported 5 minutes ago

  Remind me again why I pay Virgin Media monthly for a service that works whenever it feels like it?

• 
  Brett Williams (@brettwill82) reported 6 minutes ago

  @LFCTV why is your tv guide not working on virgin media ?

• 
  Urm (@erm2urm) reported 10 minutes ago

  Not long upgraded to 360. Is there a reason I need to login to @BBCiPlayer every single time I open it? I can't get into my @DisneyPlus account on one of the boxes. Not too happy with this 360 service atm. Could you help please @virginmedia

• 
  James Durrant (@je_durrant) reported 11 minutes ago

  @coveragechecker @virginmedia Was initially a local outage but turned into someone had unplugged my cable at the exchange and it needed replacing. Sh*t happens, I get it, but to leave someone who pays £1500 a year for a service without anything for a month is plain bad

•
