  The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported 23 seconds ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia I've checked and definitely not entitled due to the amount of days with no service. Like I said, a good will gesture. People who are working from home haven't been able to work for a start. Only been with you a few weeks and have nothing but issues.

  Sam Walker (@SamWalker03) reported 12 minutes ago from Dewsbury, England

  @virginmedia I’ve been hung up on three times this morning by your contact centre! All your willing to do is pass on the “feedback” do you have anyone customer service trained I can speak to ?

  Ed Foster (@EJJFoster) reported 25 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia I have tried the status but its saying the service is fine. Yet all the people on out estate are complaining they cannot get onto Virgin internet. We cannot book an engineer as isolating. Why is it constantly broken or speeds so slow?

  Alison Pearson (@pearson_alison) reported 26 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia why is the red button not working I've paid for this service

  Phil J (@TWO_Librans) reported 26 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia Just want to lower my bill or cancel

  Martin Spiers (@martinaspiers) reported 31 minutes ago from Oughtibridge, England

  @virginmedia That would appear only to relate to your services? I'm not a customer (except via 02).

  @virginmedia That checker like my service doesn't work

  -BMiller- (@BMiller36990477) reported 35 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @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

  Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported 39 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

• 
  Karen Walsh (@kaw7676) reported 40 minutes ago from Normanton, England

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

  Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported 45 minutes ago from Barnsley, England

  @virginmedia No it didn’t help, what is the score SL V England John

  Adam (@tevowl9) reported 50 minutes ago from Brinsworth, England

  @virginmedia on the phone for 30 minutes, WhatsApp message and technical support still not sorting us out! Oh but we can double what we pay and get a new hub!! New customers get it for £25

  Padge 👌 (@AdamPagett3) reported 52 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia finally after 5 days without a service no streaming tv, being unable to work from home and having to sit in Saturday teatime eaiting for engineer while family go to Halloween party It's finally fixed Now the impossible part making contact to discuss compensation

  Alex (@alexwhit3head_) reported 53 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

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

• 
  Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported 57 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @vmbusiness strike yet again!😠 Not only are they charging me £7/month for 4G backup that doesn't work, they are now charging me £4 for paper bills that I never asked for. Oh, and still say I owe them money despite me overpaying due a to a red letter that they took by DD later

  @virginmedia My point was more that you’d know better than me, but whatever. No issues in my area are showing.

  JS. (@ExCathedra44) reported 5 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I have just installed your 360 platform. Got it working but starting this AM the set top boxes ( I have 2)do not switch on automatically and show a No signal sign.Been on to your help line for hours as thought it might be software upgrade. Manual no use.

  @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK Same experience when my father died in September. Everyone was fantastic. Insurance, banks, utilities. Everything dealt with, no dramas & gave us plenty room & time to get paperwork. Virginmedia were horrible. Forced my mum to take out another contract before they’d close my dads

  Virgin Media simply do not seem to grasp customer service, I really fear the damage the merger with O2 will do to the service there. Penny pinching over a bereavement is proof of a fundamentally mismanaged customer service.

  b (@ihavejordans) reported 13 minutes ago

  @BobbyMan747 @Virgin Personally i was thinking of making the switch to Virgin Media, but the last couple of weeks i have been hearing a lot of this. I thought they had sorted out their issues, but it appears they haven't.

  Michael Crick (@MichaelLCrick) reported 13 minutes ago

  @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK As I have said here before, Virgin Media treat customers with total contempt. The worst type of British capitalism. Branson must be so ashamed.

  @dublinvoter I will never pay my licence fee again. This joke of a broadcaster all ready receives revenue from advertising like virgin media, they will survive without the licence money if they stop paying stupid wages to talentless hacks.

  SalfordOriginal (@Salfordoriginal) reported 17 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Obviously a capacity issue and rate throttling going wrong!!!

  @virginmedia Tried numerous times to contact you (not a customer) for someone come to my home and remove virgins outside media biz and associated cables as they are unused, not required and unsightly Webb site just ask repeatedly if I am a existing/ joining customer and repeats
