@SkyHelpTeam Losing patience waiting for you to contact me about changing my V1 Sky Q box for V2. Fed up with some UHD recordings having software errors. 6 months left on my contract but I’m considering taking a financial hit, terminating it & leaving for @Virginmedia

@virginmedia can you confirm the issues with wifi today in S62WG? Attemping to work from home is very difficult when the wifi keeps disconnecting. Virgin website says no issue!

@virginmedia hi , your text service is awful and your agent went missing for 20 mins after I passed security and then said they were going to be an hour? It took 2 days for you to get back in the first place

@virginmedia I’m not impressed. Switched for phone and broadband on 31st Aug. Telephone switch got rescheduled on the day of installation! Had to get existing provider to extend contract for 2wks. Broadband is constantly buffering and now gone down. @NOWTV @VodafoneUK better.

@virginmedia YES - Finally, after 6 days of waiting online, and phoning and texting everyday. #VirginMedia, you need to sort out your after sales and customer service, it's horrendous!! Nobody should be left waiting for 6 days!!

@virginmedia hi there! Do you have a customer support email address at all? Broadband customer here. I can’t get through on phone or live chat and need to discuss service issues and wish to downgrade service. Hope you can help!

@Ofcom why are you still allowing virgin media to provide intermittent tv, broadband and phone packages without punishment. In our area over the last two year they have provided an awful service. Constantly going down or intermittent. Horrible customer service.

@virginmedia why did you promise us broadband by today yet still an engineer has not been out to do the work then to install. This is shocking service.

@virginmedia calling to support just says it's an area fault, and there's absolutely no information on what/why or WHEN is it going to be fixed? and then sends me a link to your service checker which says everything is fine. So just wait until it magically gets fixed? 8th day with no info

@alexbloor It’s basically BT being allowed to swallow up EE all over again. That should have never been allowed, also Virgin Media and o2 joining forces should have been stopped also.

So you cant watch Eubank Jr Vs Benn unless you pay for a monthly subscription to DAZN and then pay PPV price on top or you are a Virgin Media customer. I wonder how many illegal streams will be watched for this fight. The DAZN model is so broken!

@virginmedia Really not helpful. Still lost my complaint. Called to check appointment, got text a link to report issues. The link doesn't work. Shambles.

@virginmedia ive been waiting since 8am for a reply from your team to cancel my internet. I cant be in a queue as i was there as soon as you opened today. Can i just cancel my direct debit? Because this is ridiculous and its not the first time ive tried

@virginmedia are turning into complete fascists! Cost of living crisis and yet no leeway on delayed account payments. When querying with your webchat, I was lied to about "network disruptions to improve service quality" and then told "Pay or we will cut you off". Tf? Foul CS!

@virginmedia For the past day, I've not had a stable internet connection (keeps disconnecting and reconnecting) for longer than the 30s it takes to check my "connection" on your service status. Could you please tell me if there are issues in the postal code HA1 area?

@virginmedia @Ofcom - can you help with this situation? As you monitor, telecoms companies; Do you think 3-hours worth of phone calls, being cut off 3 times and 80 minutes on WhatsApp (and counting) is good enough service from @virginmedia just to renew a contract ? #virginmedia

@virginmedia No outages In the area. Some things connect but others constantly disconnect, or refuse to connect. Wi-Fi is slow other things are wires but still don't connect
