  Steven Peterson 🏳️‍🌈 (@squeakytoy) reported 42 seconds ago from Islington, England

  I called @virginmedia back and they are now saying they won’t be able to install my internet until February 15th, a month after they sent me the modem. They’ve already activated my account and are charging me, but are telling me that shouldn’t have happened and they can’t fix it.

  @virginmedia It’s arranged (3rd time) for engineer visit tomorrow 4-7pm…. I just hope they don’t randomly cancel again

• 
  Andee Byford (@BobCratchitt) reported 1 minute ago from Romford, England

  @virginmedia Yes I have checked the service status, it is the first thing I do & all was fine. The issues is with the cable Ethernet & the phone connection in the Hub 4. I don’t use your WiFi setup as my house is fully cabled for networking. I am a Network Architect, so have done basic tests

  Deli (@DelDelovely) reported 7 minutes ago from Eltham, England

  So @virginmedia who do I invoice for the lost revenue for my husband and I as you can’t send an engineer out for 6 DAYS to fix our broadband/TV fault??! Please tell me who I’m to send the invoice to, and also how to get compensation for 6 days of lost service 😡

  @virginmedia How long have you got? I have just sat down in a restaurant to cry on a friend’s shoulder. The nice server said, “how are you?” I just burst into tears! Seriously. My disappointment is palpable. I want to go back to @BT

  @petercardwell @MichaelLCrick @virginmedia Did they hang up because they thought it was a spam call?

  Andrew Colman (@scuttyoftheyard) reported 23 minutes ago from Ilford, England

  @virginmedia And now the service checker doesn't seem to be working either....

  Anybody else's @virginmedia #V6 box been down for the last week? The old #Tivo box is still working in another room

  Richard Gendal Brown (@gendal) reported 31 minutes ago from City of London, England

  @virginmedia Thanks for your help but this is a problem only Three can sort! Their new system works where it’s deployed. The problem is that they haven’t deployed it everywhere - eg Elizabeth Line.

  virgin media was asking for my customer’s card details over the phone which i found suspicious but he goes to me “i ain’t got anything in the bank for them to nick anyway hahaha” 😭😭😭

  Elmarie Hahn💙 (@elmah69) reported 38 minutes ago from Ilford, England

  @virginmedia someone on your 0800 number told us to ring back at 9pm, said she would be there till 10pm. Tried to call at 9 pm no one there. Disgusting customer service.

• 
  Andee Byford (@BobCratchitt) reported 42 minutes ago from City of London, England

  @virginmedia Well I guess as it went down Wednesday afternoon and if all goes well back up tomorrow we will automatically qualify.

• 
  Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported 45 minutes ago from Hackney, England

  @virginmedia The quality of customer service cannot be recommended. The long delays are a constant problem Coming up to 2 hours this morning and no response

• 
  Helen Pinkers (@Barchetta66) reported 49 minutes ago from Islington, England

  @virginmedia So that’s it. We’re still no closer to solving this issue than we were when it went down at the beginning of the week. Absolutely dreadful service.

• 
  Mark Connolly (@macon1375) reported 49 minutes ago from Crayford, England

  @virginmedia Of course. I’ve done everything required of me: I was told it’s caused by my home move and the disconnection due on 12th. Things seem to have been prematurely actioned affecting my signal

• 
  Declan Higgins ☘ (@declan1968) reported 53 minutes ago from Southwark, England

  @virginmedia Oh yeah. Nothing that explains why it keeps happening though. Fix dates are usually meaningless. Feels like we're being rationed.

• 
  Derrick Brown (@DerrickSWB) reported 54 minutes ago from Lower Clapton, England

  @virginmedia Green up/down arrow flashing and router restarting

• 
  SallyH (@sallyhhk) reported 55 minutes ago from Islington, England

  @virginmedia 3 hours of online chat and I’m still haven’t managed to cancel my subscription. Why is it so difficult??

  Dionne (@dionnepat2000) reported 55 minutes ago from Walthamstow, England

  @vmbusiness LOST FOR WORDS I have been a business customer of yours since May 2021 my broadband has gone down 8 times and 6 engineers have come out. The broad band is down again I’ve called and now waiting for a message to confirm when someone will be coming out again!

  @virginmedia I’m getting so fed up with this. Every weekend. Every bank holiday. How long are you going to allow this intermittent signal to go on? I reckon it’s 4 weeks in a row now

• 
  DonegalDúnedain 🇮🇪 (@DonegalDunedain) reported 57 seconds ago

  @moefitzpatrick I was expecting less support tbh, but the anomaly that is FFG 90 year old voters whose only source of info is Virgin Media and RTÉ will always upset perceived public opinion.

• 
  Becca Jane (@BeccaJane182124) reported 1 minute ago

  @virginmedia not impressed with customer service! As a loyal customer for over 5 years I was looking to upgrade to the sports package with Netflix and WiFi. I was refused the £52.99 deal as that is “only for new customers”. I was told I would need to pay £130 for the same deal!

  Rolland Law (@rolo852010) reported 2 minutes ago

  @virginmedia can you explain to me how the cooling down period works, I got a broadband and tv package last year and I got a new tv box a few days ago but I’m not happy with the tv box am I in the cooling down period on cancelling my contract as it’s a new device I received ?

  @virginmedia you have the worst streaming service EVER. Thinking of quitting you, because it's 💩

• 
  Cububo (@pokerchamp_Cbbo) reported 4 minutes ago

  @koenjideck Only worked well for me in recent years, but it gave me a decade of packet loss and outages before then 😵‍💫 I remember playing games with people on my street at uni, and half the people would disconnect in a lobby whenever Virgin Media had an outage 🥀

  Marcus Keane (@TelfordMemories) reported 6 minutes ago

  @misselledee @virginmedia This is normal. My friend has been on a broken line for weeks now. Engineers came out 3 times. His internet is still worse than his mobile internet. Virgin is saying everything is ok. Engineers barely know much more than: Let's reboot your router. Get out. Get City Fibre.
