  @virginmedia I'm a new customer and cannot access my account. I've spoken to your customer service team a number of times and they haven't been able to sort my issue out. My account is tagged as a secondary account, but I'm the primary account holder!

  @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.

  @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

  Gary Fretwell (@GaryFretwell1) reported 13 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia I appreciate your advice, but rather than ask fellow customers for a fix I’d rather hope @virginmedia trained staff would be able to rectify this issue. I’ll try the forum, but this is not the way to run a business….@Ofcom

  @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.

  @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.

  @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

  @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!

  Callum 🏳️‍🌈 🔴⚪⚫ 🔰 (@Callum_SEND) reported 50 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

• 
  Jamie Whalley (@jamiewhalley87) reported 52 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia I have been trying to get through to your cancellations department since Saturday. In total, I have been on hold for 3 hours. 1 hour intervals before you cut me off. Your txt service is SH*T. Your agent introduced himself as working for Three, before he disconnected

  @AncientJellyTot @virginmedia Same problem with religious callers but one replied with "Jesus would want to use to talk to you whatever your sign says". I had to stifle a giggle as I closed the door.

  Jamie Summers (@JimSummersNews) reported 5 minutes ago

  Hi @virginmedia, cables belonging to VM have been detached and hanging dangerously from my building for several weeks. I’ve been told on four occasions an engineer will come to fix, and nothing has happened. Can you help please?

• 
  John Quinlan (@speeednet) reported 7 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I have had a rubbish service for months. Late last year an engineer knocked on the door and said because of a technical problem he had to replace the feed to my house, later informed me he couldn't because of a problem with the ducting. Fast forward to March 26, I get a text saying he is coming 16/03 no show, no explanation no apology. Next text says he will be there 27/04 no show no apology. The last three days the modem/router reboots about every five minutes, phoned again on Sunday explained and the techy advised me can't do anything until 20th June. This is not acceptable, I have been trying for two days to get onto your site, I am told you are sending a confirmation email which never arrives, subsequently I cannot contact the company. Just so that you know I have had enough and will be looking to replace the service ASAP. If I have any contract outstanding, I will see you in court.

  @virginmedia The worst customer service I have ever experienced. Managers can’t even get it right, how hard can it be to cancel a contract

  @virginmedia well done virgin media… you’ve been faffing about with a broadband and tv issue for the last week. Was supposed to be fixed by yesterday, now it says it’ll be the 7th. In the mean time we’ve got no broadband or tv in long intermittent blocks all day. 👎🏼
