  @virginmedia Third time it's been down today now. Yes completely down, we have no Internet at all. What other services do you mean? We only have broadband with you. Yes, I've booked but not until next week, we CAN NOT have this service for 3-5 days before someone comes out?!

  @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 14 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

  Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported 18 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

• 
  Louis Romégoux (@RomegouxLouis) reported 18 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @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.

  Callum 🏳️‍🌈 🔴⚪⚫ 🔰 (@Callum_SEND) reported 19 minutes ago from Brampton Bierlow, England

  @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

  Ed Foster (@EJJFoster) reported 21 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia hi is there an issue in wakefield with the broadband? It has been off all afternoon. Constantly on the blink!!

• 
  Abdullah Mulla (@a8dullah_mulla) reported 22 minutes ago from Heckmondwike, England

  @virginmedia somethings never change, £21 price increase can’t get you good customer service. Complaint logged for the second time, will I get response this time? 🤔

  lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported 23 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia hi virgin can you explain why you've referred me to a debt collection agency after I cancelled my service within 14 days snd returned equipment as it was a failed install and was advised I wouldn't be charged ? You also luckily never cancelled my sky .

• 
  Simon Day (@SiDay14) reported 23 minutes ago from Dewsbury, England

  @virginmedia Did you even read the thread?? Now you want me to complain about an issue I’ve complained about several times already? The whole point is your pathetic response to issues!

• 
  Adam Hutt 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@SBOmad) reported 24 minutes ago from Swinton, England

  @virginmedia Broadband went back down for me around 16:30 and no internet etc and like others your website is still failing

• 
  John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported 32 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia how do I order a new hub please? My current one loses network access and needs rebooting every hour or so. Not ideal when working from home. There are no known service issues so I’m thinking it’s a hub issue.

• 
  Phil J (@TWO_Librans) reported 38 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia Just want to lower my bill or cancel

  Terry Hague (@TezzaBelle88) reported 39 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  I’m gonna stop having days off because every time I do the WiFi seems to be down #VirginMedia

  lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported 40 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia failed install which worked for 2 hours and I cancelled within 14 days . I've now got a a bill for £62 ! Your staff just cut me off and I'm disabled and need help

• 
  Andrew Lee (@goonie2008) reported 42 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia @O2 Its definitely you lot Robin as your broadband service was a disgrace when I moved to you and I had to pay out for cancelling contract early. If this is what’s to come O2 then you will a customer of over 15 years.

  Nick Lawton (@Pontemiller) reported 48 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.

• 
  The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported 51 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia do you care to give an update regarding services being down in the WF1 area of Wakefield? You estimate keeps changing which is becoming really annoying!! Literally 1000s of households without an Internet connection. #wakefield #poorservice

  Andrew Poppleton 💙 (@popsgolf) reported 53 minutes ago from Wentworth, England

  @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?

  Jan (@geminicat7) reported 3 minutes ago

  🛜 I’m safely back from the dentist’s 😷 (only a 6 monthly check-up and all was well) but now our internet is down and not likely to be resolved until 17:30! @virginmedia 👋 I can’t afford to use up my mobile data chatting on social media so I’ll see you when / if it’s sorted!

• 
  Sammo (@redmollster) reported 5 minutes ago

  @virginmedia how do we get a new HBO activation email? We have TNT sports but don't appear to have the invitation email. All the online help simply sends us round in circles and trying to get through on the phone takes ages. Surely this should be quick and simple?

• 
  Mark Oram (@markoram1) reported 9 minutes ago

  And goes on more broken promises of a call to resolve , if you have the opportunity leave @virginmedia as soon as you possibly can .

• 
  Michael (@whatmichaelsays) reported 10 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Into my third hour on chat and my fourth agent - and still no closer to a solution!

• 
  Jo (@WhitmoreJo) reported 13 minutes ago

  I'm on call to one of your sales team and trying to cancel phone and tv and just have broadband but I'm being told that's not ok and I can't? @tradingstandards @virginmedia @virginmedia

• 
  Jackie (@boomerangjf) reported 15 minutes ago

  @virginmedia what is going on? They has been intermittent issues with Broadband in my area for a couple of weeks. No communication? Hoping we won’t notice? Virgin Service is appalling!

• 
  Denny Wright (@DennyTWright) reported 15 minutes ago

  @seanhg72 @virginmedia I’d be fuming as I use my phone as an alarm and it’s nearby incase of family emergency.

  @AlanRob68902430 @Bbmorg Can you drive about with virgin media and get signal even when you are in remote areas ?

• 
  Sinead Nash (@nashs) reported 22 minutes ago

  Thank you @virginmedia for this well timed outage that means I’ll need to need to take my laptop on holiday 🙄🙄🙄

• 
  Jonathan Cantliff (@cantliff9) reported 23 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Well the service status is working again but now it's reporting intermittent issues check again in 24 hours, earlier it was supposed to be fixed by 5pm. Seriously I pay £170 a month for this nonsense
