• 
  Callum 🏳️‍🌈 🔴⚪⚫ 🔰 (@Callum_SEND) reported 14 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

  @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!

  Andy M (@AndyM50760310) reported 22 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.

  Anyone recommend a phone network been with @O2 for years and since it merged with @virginmedia it’s shocking. When I went on holiday before I’d never had problems this year wouldn’t let me go my own internet & here signal keeps going for phoning not to mention rise in scam calls

  Chirpy Frances (@chirpyfrances) reported 29 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  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

  Alex (@alexwhit3head_) reported 36 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

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

• 
  Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported 38 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia Yes it’s signal and tried o2 got nowhere xx thanks for the reply

• 
  Andrew Kerrison (@AndrewKerrison6) reported 43 minutes ago from Rotherham, England

  @virginmedia To box not working. Got it sorted now but not happy with been miss sold a package I didn't need then had to waste more time on the phone to cancel it

• 
  Ben Brailsford (@benbrailsford) reported 43 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 🤬

• 
  Helen-Claire Stone (@Helen_Claire71) reported 45 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia’s customer service is appalling. 3 hours to respond to a message has to be the benchmark for worst practice. Last weekend it took them 27 hours to sort out cancelling my account. Absolutely hopeless.

• 
  The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported 45 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

  Richard Gladwin (@rwgladwin) reported 46 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia were there issues in S9 around 1020 this morning?

• 
  Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported 55 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

• 
  Jamie Whalley (@jamiewhalley87) reported 57 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

  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

  🇺🇦 Clive Davies #FBPE 🔶🇬🇧🇪🇺🇭🇰 (@CliveDaviesUK) reported 7 minutes ago

  @O2 There’s really no point as nothing ever changes! And when Virgin Media goes down (which happens far too often) I have zero means of communication. The price hike was the last straw really - time to move to another provider.

  @Kirsty_x85 @virginmedia it's just a leaflet you retard.

  @virginmedia Is there a broadband outage in ML1 postcode ? No service for last 30 mins

• 
  Paul ▶️ (@customerchamp1) reported 11 minutes ago

  Who remembers when @O2 customer service was good? Since the merger with the appalling @virginmedia it's been absolutely diabolical. Trying to help a vulnerable relative, been on hold for 45 minutes 🤮🤮🤮 to reset his password. Shameful.

  @virginmedia @emmamcl_xo Crap service - always going down, and they never refund you..

• 
  Murdocke (@murdocke) reported 16 minutes ago

  @virginmedia your broadband has gotten noticeably bad these last few years, you used to be impeccable but now there’s always some fault you can’t fix and it gets pushed back again and again. ******** has happened to you? Your engineers lately are ******* shite. (Customer for 25 years)

  Mykrodot 💚☘️🇨🇮 (@Margare45125811) reported 17 minutes ago

  @arabiaclaire @AnGabharCliste @rte I'm exactly the same ! Virgin Media who run The Tonight Show with Master Gaslighter & Deflector Shane Coleman is just as bad. Thank God for Netflix !

• 
  Man in Black 2125 (@In2125) reported 19 minutes ago

  @virginmedia yeah did that. it says all fine. no issues .... yet a quick scan of social media ( not using virgin broadband obviously, reveals there's an outage in my area .... perhaps you should move your status checker to another provider? It's going to 24 hours apparently. great service
