    Cracks me up that the main feature of BT’s internet provision currently being advertised is that it breaks! And you can book a slot to fix it Why not invest your advertising budget in stopping it from breaking? Not to be smug but (touch wood) @virginmedia has never conked out!

    @virginmedia How are things?? Footpath left full of mud. Having to clean footwear off or remove before coming into the house! The whole length of the footpath in front of the houses where your workers have been is a disgrace. Not even rain has washed it clean!! Terrible standard of work! 😤

  • LauraR1707 Laura (@LauraR1707) reported from Bury, England

    @virginmedia hello our box attached to our outside wall is broken and won’t close, wires could be exposed and with the weather changing the water could get in. This has been since we moved in, in April

  • uk_haj john Hajdar (@uk_haj) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Requested a free booster, which comes in two parts, which duly arrived and I installed them. Then got an envelope telling me to return something, another letter explaining what came later. I am now confused but keeping the boosters. Does that help?

  • naj028 N Jules (@naj028) reported

    @tomwinter999 @virginmedia Nightmare isn’t it! I would love to cancel, but our postcode only allows for Virgin. We are stuck 🥲

  • dirkdiglett00 michael smith (@dirkdiglett00) reported

    @virginmedia I've mistakenly placed 2 orders for broadband to be installed at my address. I am a new customer and have so far been on hold to your customer services for over 30 minutes, despite the initial automated service stating I'd only be waiting 5 minutes. Can you help?!

  • Str8Buckets_ BANG!³ (@Str8Buckets_) reported

    @virginmedia is there an issue in London with your mobile connection?

  • bonjovibird Elaine F (@bonjovibird) reported

  • snookie1971 Ellen Eve Reid (@snookie1971) reported

    @virginmedia So basically I can only claim if is down for 24 hours? So have to put up with hours of no service and still be expected to pay for it? Not good.

  • shellbryson Shell Bryson (@shellbryson) reported

    @virginmedia Please, please, please increase the upload speeds on your services. I currently have the gigabit service which is excellent (solid 990Mbit downloads), but 50Mbit upload is pitiful. Uploading video is painful.

  • Allensmith81 Allen Smith (@Allensmith81) reported

    @virginmedia Sorry VM social media team I know that’s the scripted answer but while it’s a part of it an 11% rise when everyone is having a hard time already, except o2/vm who are literally making thousands of pounds a minute, stinks of customer abuse @O2

  • snookie1971 Ellen Eve Reid (@snookie1971) reported

    @virginmedia It says that should be fixed by 19.30 today! That's a lot of service to loose. In what way can I claim compensation? I'm going to have to use a lot of mobile data, so is my daughter.

  • ShadeyBangs ṣadé (@ShadeyBangs) reported

    I’ve waited 3 weeks for wifi from @virginmedia just to be told THE NIGHT BEFORE (21:36) they’re going to delay my installation for another 2 weeks. I’m cancelling my contract. Rubbish company with very poor communication
