  Amanda Brightmore (@mandybaps1) reported 2 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia No one has informed me of this, I feel I have been misold again very poor. No one mentioned this previously I have been told it was a new promotional that was added, so again alot of tosh. Does anyone know what they are doing at virgin.

  Andy M (@AndyM50760310) reported 4 minutes ago from Dewsbury, England

  @virginmedia That is really poor. It should be for Virgin to sort not the public. I spent an hour on the phone on Thursday speaking to a next to useless overseas call centre.

  @LordTets @virginmedia Go to Ofcom... you have clearly given them ample time on numerous occasions to resolve your complaint. Life is too short to spend your time waiting for promised calls and web chats... let the ombudsman deal with them.

  @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 @virginmedia @O2 if you're going to sell merged packages to your customers then you really need to improve your joint customer service.. just batting me back to the other without an answer is simply unacceptable

  Yorkshire Chuff (@YorkshireChuff) reported 34 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  Reading all the tweets from you idiots who haven't got unlimited 5g hotspot. Been paying for this for years. For this very moment. **** you #virginmedia

  Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported 37 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

• 
  Alex (@alexwhit3head_) reported 37 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  Coincidence that BT & EE has been selling broadband all day in area and now my @virginmedia is down.

• 
  Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported 39 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

  Judge Drokk | Mark Hellewell (@JudgeDrokk) reported 47 minutes ago from Darton, England

  @virginmedia Well I don't know if the problem has been restored at virgins end I received help and advice from an outside source who showed show me how to work around the problem with manual DNS entries. But for me, working now. Thanks.

  @virginmedia first day of your internet snd massive regrets ! Can I cancel ? Cutting out constantly 😫

• 
  Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported 53 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

• 
  Ben Brailsford (@benbrailsford) reported 59 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia on hold for 40 mins so far just to get you to cancel a service I don't even want 🤬

  @j0nfuzz @virginmedia Brsk knocked on the door the other month to say they now had service so we’ll likely go with them.

• 
  Ex-Fedupcivvy (@Fedupcivvy) reported 5 minutes ago

  @obbsie @virginmedia Everyone I know who used to be with @virginmedia has moved to another provider having experienced the same rubbish service you're getting. Banged on my door a few weeks ago, got sent packing, told the sales person I'd rather go totally offline than use them

• 
  Ollyp3 (@ollyp3) reported 5 minutes ago

  @Benleo @virginmedia Wait - you have to stay on a contract or cancel. Why can't they just cancel what you were sold, give you the compensation (which they are legally required to on Ofcom auto compensation anyway for lost connectivity) and fix your service urgently. I cannot believe you are being held to a missed contract without the perks of said contract! Apalling

• 
  @j0nfuzz.me (@j0nfuzz) reported 7 minutes ago

  @JMRGBY_ @virginmedia Don’t forget to have that reflected in your service charge

  @virginmedia Hi, i lost internet connection, HP3, is there an issue??

• 
  Phil NSNO (@Mccartney2Phil) reported 9 minutes ago

  @virginmedia there has been issues with the set top/TV since May 18th and it's still not fixed...why ?

• 
  Ivan Elmanov (@GregoryRasputin) reported 12 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I don’t have a problem returning it, I have a problem with your company threatening to charge me because I didn’t send the router back straight away, maybe give people more than two weeks to send it back before harassing them.

  @virginmedia Residential I've had 4 calls that have cut out after a few minutes and I've had to cancel a project. An engineer is coming out tomorrow. Not going well...

  marc (@bighandsmassuer) reported 15 minutes ago

  @virginmedia all I wanted was a new contract, after 16 years I thought it would be quite straight forward Oh no, the 3 customer service people I spoke to were useless Great way to run a business
