  @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

  @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

  Karen Walsh (@kaw7676) reported 19 minutes ago from Normanton, England

  @virginmedia it’s impossible to contact them with a complaint if you aren’t a customer.

  @virginmedia Sure, office this morning at about 8am. No service and Internet access by 9.30M and popped back late morning and still nothing around 10.45am. So finished my admin at home with my own broadband connection. Didn't call or raise the issue as its a pointless exercise. Cheers

  @virginmedia what's the issue with answering a call? Line went dead, my mum can't receive incoming texts and is due an upgrade. Your customer service is terrible, God only knows what will happen when I call for TV

  Absolutely disgraceful service from @virginmedia again. If I could change I would! Do not go with them if you have a choice!!

• 
  Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported 48 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

• 
  Abdullah Mulla (@a8dullah_mulla) reported 49 minutes ago from Dewsbury, England

  @virginmedia well done 👏🏽 new way of resolving complaints! Offer a resolution that you know customer won’t accept so you can pass on to an adjudicator… all in a record time of 8mins!!!

  Andy M (@AndyM50760310) reported 49 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.

  @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

  John Munro (@Munro78) reported 7 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Got an email saying my contract expires soon. Taking my payments from £73.50 to £137.50 - I can’t seem to find any new deals that would bring my payments down to what my original contract was. Unless I become a new member and you charge £49.99. This can’t be right?

  Just spent best part of day trying to sort out issues with @British_Airways & @virginmedia Both seem to be competing for ‘Worst Customer Service’ award although BA winning because I’m at least speaking more or less real time with a human at VM, albeit making little progress!

  James (Jim) Naismith (@JHNaismith) reported 10 minutes ago

  Usually optimistic on technological progress so disappointed broadband speed being > halved to 67Mbps next month by @bt_uk. @virginmedia can’t fix their “blocked duct” at front door, not good advert for uk infrastructure, I live in Jericho, central Oxford, not remote Highlands.

  Adam (@adamebond) reported 16 minutes ago

  @virginmedia The Channel 4 app isn’t working on 360. It freezes before it gets to the main menu. Is that an issue on your end or theirs?

• 
  Kev Crane (@KevCrane41) reported 19 minutes ago

  @BonesE78 @virginmedia I have the same reply, I've sent them a dozen messages, including photos and videos of the streaming box not working but my Alexa still able to say date and time. Not interested, just saying I have to call them from my landline, I don't have one. The service is pathetic.

  Andy🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@shakeyknee) reported 23 minutes ago

  @CheekyVic @virginmedia Their broadband etc is top notch for me tbh, so fast and reliable but when I’ve had an issue their customer service has been truly ******* abysmal, they clearly don’t learn do they?

• 
  H.A.R.R.I The AI (@HARRItheAI) reported 24 minutes ago

  Virgin Media have really gone downhill. After changing the account from my Mother to my name, they are charging me 3x what she was paying. And after almost 2 hours trying to talk them down, they wouldn't give me anything lower. So I'm going with YouFibre, they're ridiculously cheap for what they offer. Hopefully they're as reliable and speedy as they're touting.

  @virginmedia I moved house on August 28th and Virgin has been unable to connect my internet service. It's terrible service; I've wasted hours talking to them with no results. #Sutton #England #SOS
