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

  @virginmedia ongoing intermittent issues with my broadband for weeks now and yet your website gives no option to get through to anyone to help despite it promising to do so. Keeps telling me to check back in 24 hours. Unacceptable level of service!

  @virginmedia I have tried the status but its saying the service is fine. Yet all the people on out estate are complaining they cannot get onto Virgin internet. We cannot book an engineer as isolating. Why is it constantly broken or speeds so slow?

  @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

  @Condieflyy My virgin media went down this morning too 👀

  @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!!!

  @virginmedia got a flashing Internet light on router that won't go away so my WiFi (and therefore TV/ streaming etc) not working. Tried rebooting, resetting, the works. Online help / faq no help. Are there any issues?

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

  @virginmedia please sort the Sky Red button issue which is preventing Sheffield United fans subscribed to Virgin from experiencing the service they've paid for.

  @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 it’s impossible to contact them with a complaint if you aren’t a customer.

  @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.

  Jules Tee (@xjuewx) reported 46 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia not good when my 82yr old mum was left with no phone service so no health emergency service and city wide alarm for the last 2 days.... not good enough !!!!

• 
  The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported 47 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia all services in the WF1 area of Wakefield have been down all day and looking like 6pm to be fixed. Will you be applying any credit to people's accounts?? Good will gesture and all that! #wakefield

• 
  Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported 48 minutes ago from Wombwell, England

  @virginmedia I tried that and that’s how I got stuck in this situation. Is there a number I can call that is DIRECT for a complaint?

• 
  Adam (@tevowl9) reported 50 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

  @virginmedia - so, you apply an update to fix Sky Sports but trying to watch any box recordings now leads to stuttering and freezing. Look up comedian Norman Collier. It's like that! What on earth do we pay our bills for? Well, it isn't customer services is it?

  Joey C (@Joeurovision24) reported 8 minutes ago

  @danielarf21 I’m with you on Virgin Media not showing it anymore, really disappointing tbh as there was a fanbase for it. But willing to give this series a go, the trailer isn’t the worst. People saying it’s “Ai Slop” need to chill, unfortunately it’s gonna be the norm for a lot of shows

• 
  Leigh Gow (@LeighHutch90) reported 10 minutes ago

  Why is the sky sports+ red button option still terrible? @virginmedia

• 
  Tracy Clarkin (@tracyhunter66) reported 10 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I have had no internet or phone service since 10pm on Wednesday , it's now Friday and still no service

  Matty M (@wanna_be_dj) reported 11 minutes ago

  @ryantegan @skytv My renewal offer from @virginmedia kept going down. Ended up getting it for £75 a month for all channels, 1gb internet and 2 boxes.

• 
  Dmh (@Dmhches) reported 12 minutes ago

  @virginmedia the fact that the red button isn’t working for sky sports on your service means you’re not providing the serving I am paying for. Please confirm I am able to exit my contract with no penalties due to this

• 
  H47LE7🐏🍺☀️ (@hayley1884) reported 16 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Yes I have: it says estimated fix time 5.08 which is brilliant as I’m supposed to be working from home!!

• 
  DJ Dilla (@DJDillaBSR) reported 16 minutes ago

  @virginmedia are there currently problems in the Bristol area?

  @ArtTed___4 You are obviously not a @virginmedia customer then!
