  Ed Foster (@EJJFoster) reported 2 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?

  @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness Thanks. The 4G backup not working since the service was installed

  @virginmedia So you're telling me to be without stable /any Internet for at least 3-5 days and that is okay and acceptable? No. We work from home. You need to fix this.

  @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 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!

  What an absolute shower of shite service as usual from @virginmedia they literally couldn’t care any less

• 
  V-Bull (@VanceBulla) reported 19 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

  Nick Lawton (@Pontemiller) reported 32 minutes ago from Knottingley, England

  I think very soon I'll be saying 👋 to @ThreeUK and 🤝 to @virginmedia...over the last couple of years, the signal has got increasingly worse. I have just bought a new phone, but the problem persists...really unhappy.

  John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported 37 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!

  @virginmedia as usual Virgin media lets me down when I need it. Trying to watch the West Ham game and am in an impossible loop as my passkey is not recognised, it doesn’t actually show how or why and then the link does nothing. Pathetic as usual what a waste of money

  @virginmedia No you can’t log on in that way. I’ve tried it. And we shouldn’t have to when we’ve paid for the service. Very poor.
