  @virginmedia @virginmedia @O2 if you're going to sell merged packages to your customers then you really need to improve your joint customer service.. just batting me back to the other without an answer is simply unacceptable

  @virginmedia our broadband down without warning and service update says you hope to fix this by 5th April! Why so long? We rely on this for work - unacceptable

  Rebecca (@Bexwa) reported 28 minutes ago from Dewsbury, England

  @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

  @virginmedia Oh yes and I’ve phoned. It appears to be that yesterday’s problems haven’t been resolved.

• 
  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!

  Jamie Whalley (@jamiewhalley87) reported 39 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

• 
  Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported 43 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @PaulbernalUK @virginmedia It’s fine here but earlier in March we were left without any service for days at a time . The reason given was service upgrades. Ring them on 150 for an automated update

• 
  John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported 43 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia how do I order a new hub please? My current one loses network access and needs rebooting every hour or so. Not ideal when working from home. There are no known service issues so I’m thinking it’s a hub issue.

  Martin Spiers (@martinaspiers) reported 44 minutes ago from Oughtibridge, England

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

• 
  Chris McCulloch (@Chm14Mc) reported 46 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia as a rejoining customer, how do I set up an account with my old accounts e-mail address? #gettingstuck #shouldbeeasier

  @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

  Hello @virginmedia the Internet has been down since 7.30am and I haven't been able to register a loss of service on your website. Wtf

• 
  Simon Gallagher (@SiGallagher) reported 9 minutes ago

  @virginmedia What's the issue with the app and website log ins? It's not working, not showing an error message other than "server_error" in the URL, and I see no status update from you?

• 
  GarethYOURCXC (@GarethYOURCXC) reported 13 minutes ago

  @OCP_84 @virginmedia @tntsports That is just bonkers! Clearly "valuable" is being used in the wrong context. Their 'new' acquisition numbers are more important that long term customer loyalty/value.

• 
  Steve Smith (@SteveSmith98) reported 16 minutes ago

  Hi @virginmedia. Fault F012283434 started last Thursday and you're now saying you don't intend to fix it at all this week. Do you actually think it's OK for your customers to be unable to work for a week? Could you not even try to explain what's wrong and what you're doing?

  cameron scotece (@CameronScotece) reported 16 minutes ago

  @virginmedia why is the WiFi so poor around Nottingham area , getting 1mb download , not acceptable when paying £60 a month+

• 
  Stuart Mills (@MooeyMills) reported 18 minutes ago

  @virginmedia you need to employ more staff it’s impossible to speak with a human being when support is needed and your online solutions are totally inadequate and result in unwanted enineers visits

• 
  Elizabeth Ellis (@LizEllisPianist) reported 26 minutes ago

  Ghastly customer service from @virginmedia #O2mobile , no resolution to an issue which started in August 2024 ! Beyond a joke at this point ! Legal route is now the only way forward with this !

• 
  Gary (@garyjdale) reported 30 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Good Morning, can I speak to someone about my internet please? I have no service at present. It says there’s a fault in my area but nothing about a total loss of service 🤔
