  @virginmedia well done 👏🏽 new way of resolving complaints! Offer a resolution that you know customer won’t accept so you can pass on to an adjudicator… all in a record time of 8mins!!!

  @virginmedia I appreciate your advice, but rather than ask fellow customers for a fix I’d rather hope @virginmedia trained staff would be able to rectify this issue. I’ll try the forum, but this is not the way to run a business….@Ofcom

  @virginmedia very unhappy failed install and had no service since Saturday and I'm within my 14 days to cancel yet your staff don't understand this and want to charge me for a fault call !! When do you become so crap !!!

  Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported 31 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia It’s strange because the online help claims there’s no problem but the phone says there’s a major problem in the area. Perhaps the online help needs updating because it’s no help at all

• 
  Andrew Lee (@goonie2008) reported 32 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.

  Amanda Brightmore (@mandybaps1) reported 38 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia No one has informed me of this, I feel I have been misold again very poor. No one mentioned this previously I have been told it was a new promotional that was added, so again alot of tosh. Does anyone know what they are doing at virgin.

  Reading all the tweets from you idiots who haven't got unlimited 5g hotspot. Been paying for this for years. For this very moment. **** you #virginmedia

  Martin Spiers (@martinaspiers) reported 40 minutes ago from Oughtibridge, England

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

• 
  Callum 🏳️‍🌈 🔴⚪⚫ 🔰 (@Callum_SEND) reported 44 minutes ago from Brampton Bierlow, England

  @virginmedia I appreciate you trying to help. The issue is with the virgin contract being 18 months and the "new" o2 deal being 24 months and how this would impact as I looked to renegotiate in 18 months

• 
  Phil J (@TWO_Librans) reported 53 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia Just want to lower my bill or cancel

• 
  Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported 54 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 And it’s gone down. Again. Are you actually kidding me. What is this lunch time and virgin stops supplying broadband. How hard is this. Get it sorted. I’ve done all the trouble shooting and I’ve paid my bills. Jesus wept. I pay enough. Sort it out.

  @saltyy_savage @virginmedia When will people realise that Virgin Media internet is just awful? They promote crazy how download speeds, decent upload speeds, only for it to fluctuate like crazy, switch to BT/EE & don't look back 💪 @FriendlyGuyTTV
