  @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!

  Jamie Whalley (@jamiewhalley87) reported 18 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

  @virginmedia hi virgin can you explain why you've referred me to a debt collection agency after I cancelled my service within 14 days snd returned equipment as it was a failed install and was advised I wouldn't be charged ? You also luckily never cancelled my sky .

• 
  John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported 26 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @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!

• 
  Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported 42 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia ongoing intermittent issues with my broadband for weeks now and yet your website gives no option to get through to anyone to help despite it promising to do so. Keeps telling me to check back in 24 hours. Unacceptable level of service!

• 
  Martin Spiers (@martinaspiers) reported 43 minutes ago from Oughtibridge, England

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

• 
  Marc Riley (@Sheffield_Boy) reported 48 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia got a flashing Internet light on router that won't go away so my WiFi (and therefore TV/ streaming etc) not working. Tried rebooting, resetting, the works. Online help / faq no help. Are there any issues?

• 
  Debbie 💜 🦋🦉 (@DeborahTaylor3) reported 49 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @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

• 
  Amanda Brightmore (@mandybaps1) reported 58 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @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

• 
  Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported 60 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia awful and aggressive scare tactics from your not so friendly cancellations rep when trying to cancel my service. God help any vulnerable person that tries to do the same thing. Shameful

• 
  Simon (@cleggy1966) reported 2 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Yes. Because there was still an outage in the area, you cancelled the appointments. My issue was separate to the outage, but apparently you just cancel any appointments when there is an outage, irrespective of whether the issue relates to it or not. Madness.

• 
  Emma Spurdle (@EmmaSpurdle) reported 2 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Yes but it’s no help if it keeps changing, this is the third estimated time fix it’s shown since Thursday

• 
  RPD Pacer (@rpd_pacer) reported 3 minutes ago

  @Cloverbeech @virginmedia Just checked. Their top range broadband is as much as my VM bundle. The service we get is really good, it's the absolutely shocking customer service that comes with it 🙄🙄🙄

• 
  Simon (@cleggy1966) reported 4 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I already have done and it is hopefully being sorted. All depends on whether the engineer turns up this afternoon or whether you decide to cancel the appointment again

• 
  B (@1992JDBX) reported 5 minutes ago

  @virginmedia you lot are ******* shocking !!!! Needed internet for my new house you installed the outside service to the wrong address had to cancel the order and now everyone I speak to you at yourself passes me to someone else or don’t understand simple English !!

  Bilgin Art (@art_bilgin) reported 6 minutes ago

  @ virgin #virginbroadband @VirginAtlantic Virgin media broadband 4 days without broadband from crappy Virgin. Mast down, so it takes 4 flipping days to fix it yet everything internet, business, security and entertainment is down

• 
  Blain (@Blaaiin) reported 13 minutes ago

  Hi @virginmedia, I have been passed from pillow to post since yesterday morning and have been lied to about an appointment that was booked for someone to come to my property and repair my internet and TV services. How do I escalate this? Honestly, the service is a shambles!

• 
  🌸 🙀 Teresa Cooper (@Teresacooper) reported 14 minutes ago

  I cant get downstairs to an ambulance anyway and 2 days later @virginmedia is still down.

  The crap I've heard about Virgin Media. I wouldn't go near them

  TB (@Peerabeee) reported 17 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I am paying for a service you cannot deliver. Multiple failed engineer visits (Dec 24, Jan 22) and internet is still broken. you demand an illegal cancellation fee? I have raised a formal complaint: C-010626172 (Yeliz Guven Bilgin). Sort this out under Ofcom rules.
