  Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported 8 minutes ago from Sale, England

  @virginmedia It’s everything connected via Wi-Fi. I don’t have the connect app. I check for service status on your website and it usually says there isn’t an issue, but that doesn’t reflect my service.

  Paul Terry (@SurrealPaulT) reported 9 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia hi Virgin. We had an outage of broadband and TV services beginning 23rd Sept which lasted for 4 days. At the time we were told we would be compensated for this loss. As it hasn't come off our latest bill, how do we claim?

  @virginmedia I tell them to ring 999 or 0151 709 6010 if they want to report a crime. They hang up but they sound South Asian and their English is poor. I worry about other oaps being conned. Good luck chasing them.

  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 13 minutes ago from St Helens, England

  @virginmedia can someone help me please? I’m about to lose my ****. Never ever known anything like this company. Now telling me lies on WhatsApp. Saying i logged an issue weeks after engineers had already been out to find the fault. Refusing compensation after 4 mths no service.

  You say you care about your customers and if you did you would fix your ******* **** Internet problems that everyone is having and don't even bother replying @virginmedia

  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 32 minutes ago from St Helens, England

  @virginmedia All the while taking my direct debit payments for a service I am not getting

• 
  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 33 minutes ago from Atherton, England

  @virginmedia Could the problems in the area have caused damage to the equipment? As it was working fine before. Do I get compensation for all this time as the earliest appointment is Friday 14th?

  Weirdly even older fan (@Karamonkey1) reported 36 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia And the sum total of welcome texts I received during my 7 night stay in Jamaica was 189. I never moved from the same hotel. I often got 4-8 texts whilst sat at the same restaurant table or in my room. @virginmedia get your act together

  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 36 minutes ago from Atherton, England

  @virginmedia 2/2 who can I speak to as it was working fine on Friday until the issues that were nothing to do with me happened, so don’t see why I should now pay for a technician

• 
  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 38 minutes ago from Atherton, England

  @virginmedia See thread above, nothing changes except the time of the estimated fix. It must be very localised as not everyone in my area is affected. So if it is damaged cables, I haven’t seen anyone out repairing them over the weekend, it’s a joke

  Tom Rushton (@tomrushton88) reported 42 minutes ago from Haydock, England

  @virginmedia Don't use this company its disgusting and disappointing the way they treat customers. Been trying to sort my contract out for 3 months now while they rob my money, create contracts that I've not agreed to and cancel complaints that I've raised.

• 
  Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported 47 minutes ago from Eccleston, England

  @VirginMedia Received message. Now not accepting my email address. I have one only. My problem is with the remote control which is activated by pressing 2 buttons when they light up. Have had nothing but trouble with one remote for one TV. Your communication us not helpful.

  William Connolly (@WCONNOLLY2512) reported 47 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @beverleyturner @virginmedia Virgin Media had gone ****. Poor broadband, crappie TV channels and half don't even work.

• 
  Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported 52 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia As I say. I don't like publicly shaming a company that was once good. But your customer service is an absolute disgrace

• 
  Lindz Devine (@LindzDDub) reported 53 minutes ago from Wigan, England

  @virginmedia @virginhelp I've never had this much issue as I have had today. I'm plugged in on ethernet, I've reset my hub, and checked my area and there is no issue at all. My WiFi is working from my hub but yet its booting me out of Destiny 2 and not just that but the chat parties on PS5 itself

• 
  Tony Jacobs (@tonyj01) reported 56 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia seems to be down nationally. 1: tell us status 2: tell us when back on

• 
  Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported 59 minutes ago from Westhoughton, England

  @virginmedia I seem to be the first one to report them, still saying intermittent problems in my area. Can't get to speak to anyone on phone, I rely on the Internet.

• 
  Jack Kelly (@realjackoh187) reported 59 minutes ago from Widnes, England

  @virginmedia Visit was fine replaced wifi. I was never out of Internet completely like it says only your compensation page, but it was equally as bad since my step daughter had online training to do which couldn't be done at all. My children also were not able to do homework.

  Josh B (@JoshuaBurns) reported 60 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia on my second week of being a first time customer with you and my connection has been down for nearly 10 hours now. What’s going on?

  Dave (@bigdave22003388) reported 60 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia im guessing technical support ain’t working ? Got no tv and can’t get any help

  @virginmedia An estimated fix time would be nice. Just getting a standard error message… would really like to know what the problem is please

• 
  Diane Elebert-Morgan (@GMCC_Diane) reported 5 minutes ago

  @virginmedia loving the even further dial down of our broadband as we enter InTo the last few days of contract with you! You already turned it down after the first 8 weeks so we had to upgrade! We have never used you before and we will never use you again! Good riddance!

• 
  dAve Fletcher 🦉 (@_dAveFletcher_) reported 5 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Maybe it's just premiers that I can't watch, The Bride, The Running Man etc.... I can watch older stuff. That's poor form!

• 
  megb (@Gbarch1) reported 9 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Our service has been down since 10pm Thursday 28th. Latest updates keep pushing reconnection forward to latest info: 1st June 12pm. What on earth are you doing? Clearly not working on Friday-Sunday. Replies have dried up and your Whatsapp is disabled. We pay £123 pm

• 
  O2 (@O2) reported 12 minutes ago

  @kimerthywoo Hi it's us from Virgin Media O2. Sorry to hear your having this issue. If possible could you send us a screenshot of the error you are getting over a private chat, so we can look into this for you.

  Bill Y (@BillY18201250) reported 12 minutes ago

  @PeteUK7 @virginmedia #Vodafone did this to me with my dad's estate. 2months left on a 24month. Gimme the money and kit back. Then had the cheek to try and upsell the package during the call. I lost it on that one. Think its time #ofcom cracked down on bereavement account closure tactics.

• 
  Kelli Jayne Nunez (@JayneNunez11) reported 13 minutes ago

  @keithward329 @virginmedia Depends. Auto replies are usually garbage, but the real issue is no human loop. We set up Replymer to catch mentions, then still route the messy ones to a person.

• 
  Wayne Dannatt (@wadannatt) reported 17 minutes ago

  @virginmedia instead of sending a text message stating that services will be fixed soon, how about giving a timeframe? My Internet has been out all day, you've just increased prices yet again, this is the second time in six months and last time it took you two days to fix it!

• 
  the_beeb_23 (@thebeeb_23) reported 19 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Oh, I can think you should rest easy in bed knowing that this will never happen. I on the other hand have to spend every moment of every day telling people about what a bunch of front b0ttoms your organisation is and how 5hitty sticks should be deployed to keep away from you

  @virginmedia Sent an email ad for Wifi Pods. Clicked the link — can't buy one. Googled it — same issue. You're actively losing sales from your own marketing. Someone needs to audit your funnels urgently - you're losing money.
