  Chirpy Frances (@chirpyfrances) reported 1 minute 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

  @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 The TV that it glitches on cant reach the box to get it wired in (but its only 10 ft away) I can't hard wire my laptop in. It goes off all the time! And then keep texting me saying you are coming for the WiFi pod after speaking with customer service. Im paying a fortune for this

  Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported 15 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @KevEdwardsRetro I've been with them for years (Yorkshire Cable before that) but changed to the @vmbusiness service to get 4G backup only to find that it doesn't work when their device is in modem mode. Unable to get through to them though - worst support/customer service I've ever experienced

  @virginmedia I’ve had that email. I’ve also had another email this morning saying they’re sorry to hear I’m unhappy with my broadband speed. I’m not! I’m unhappy with a call out charge being applied, which was promised to be reversed and never has been!

  @virginmedia is the email down again??

  Sam Walker (@SamWalker03) reported 21 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 ?

  lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported 23 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia failed install which worked for 2 hours and I cancelled within 14 days . I've now got a a bill for £62 ! Your staff just cut me off and I'm disabled and need help

• 
  Aidan Carey (@Aidan1964) reported 28 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @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!

  Judge Drokk | Mark Hellewell (@JudgeDrokk) reported 31 minutes ago from Darton, England

  @virginmedia Well I don't know if the problem has been restored at virgins end I received help and advice from an outside source who showed show me how to work around the problem with manual DNS entries. But for me, working now. Thanks.

• 
  Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported 33 minutes ago from Wombwell, England

  @virginmedia And I can’t raise a complaint on the site without having an account, which I don’t have, so that is a pointless endeavour as well

• 
  Martin Spiers (@martinaspiers) reported 35 minutes ago from Oughtibridge, England

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

• 
  Andrew Lee (@goonie2008) reported 45 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia @O2 Its definitely you lot Robin as your broadband service was a disgrace when I moved to you and I had to pay out for cancelling contract early. If this is what’s to come O2 then you will a customer of over 15 years.

• 
  V-Bull (@VanceBulla) reported 46 minutes ago from Brampton Bierlow, England

  @virginmedia Faceless customer service. Can’t live chat, can’t chat to anyone on the phone. All they want to do is send you a text or a link to their website. Poor. What am I paying for? Certainly isn’t customer service

  Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported 55 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia @lionsgateplusuk Wish I could enjoy this but my so called 500mb service is so poor I’ve virtually been without internet for a week. Finally your team viewed it as urgent because I do work from home on Zoom and…an engineer is coming on Tuesday. When BT Reach put full fibre in my area it’s bye bye

  @virginmedia Thanks for absolutely no help what so ever. Please fix your issues

• 
  Ed Foster (@EJJFoster) reported 58 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?

  Can anyone at @virginmedia please let me know when the outage in south Ayr will be fixed?

  🇺🇦 Clive Davies #FBPE 🔶🇬🇧🇪🇺🇭🇰 (@CliveDaviesUK) reported 13 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.

• 
  Robert de Bruin (@RdeB1973) reported 14 minutes ago

  @virginmedia @BBCWatchdog Virgin Media do not care about there customers, they don't take serious complaints seriously! They take unauthorised monies then fail to refund ! They make it up as they go along. In other words please sort out my refund ASAP.

  @HarrietHarman A government minister's family members were downloading porn on virgin media and claiming it back off the taxpayer the last time you lot were in power, so I'd pipe down if I were you.

  10+ years. 50M+ users. £11M+ revenue impact. Mercedes. Citibank. Sky. Virgin Media. NatWest. Here's what I learned: Bad product flows can cost thousands, or even millions, in lost revenue. Regardless of company size. What kills conversions in big-name products does the same for startups: - Onboarding that loses people in the first 60 secs - Pricing pages that confuse instead of convert - Sign-up flows that cause decision fatigue I’ve seen that when you fix these - you get more from the traffic you already have. Now I build those same systems for funded startups - so they keep the users they've already paid to get.
