    @virginmedia why does your broadband never work between 5am and 7:30am in #Farnworth Surely this a poor service as things are not never working... If there are works why does your website never update to say so

  • lorraineayrton Lorraine Ayrton (@lorraineayrton) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia OK I am getting mad 🤬🤬🤬 This has been my problem I CANNOT GET THROUGH TO A HUMAN BEING. Everything is automated. When I try to call it goes round the houses and then the call drops. #lostacustomer #igiveup

  • dejkirkby 'Motivated And Confident' Mags (@dejkirkby) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia @btsport as a VM customer with the BT Sport add-on, can you explain to me the idea behind having the only reason I have the BT Sport add-on, UFC, having major events locked behind a secondary paywall and then still increasing the package cost. Not only double

  • lorraineayrton Lorraine Ayrton (@lorraineayrton) reported from Bolton, England

    @blackheartorch @virginmedia 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 is all I have to say right now. Just want to talk to a human and not deal with an automated service x

  • bizzarebird BBird (@bizzarebird) reported from Bolton, England

  • deghunter dianeG (@deghunter) reported from Brierfield, England

    @virginmedia trying to work from home with regular weekly loss of broadband isn’t a service, it’s a disgrace. Will be leaving

  • Aftab147 Aftab (@Aftab147) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia Hi do we have a service issue at my postcode OL16 2JJ. Had issues on Tuesday as well.

  • Aftab147 Aftab (@Aftab147) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia Hi its regarding broadband, was down most of Tuesday and we are having in and out connection today.

  • baabaa89 Victoria. 🐝 (@baabaa89) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia We have been experiencing issues with our hub. We often lose connection and then the connection is not very strong at all when connected. This has been happening for a couple of weeks. Please advise further.

  • baabaa89 Victoria. 🐝 (@baabaa89) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia No issues and my box has no issues after running a test, but it still loses connection regularly.

  • diygolf John Pennington (@diygolf) reported from Ramsbottom, England

    @MotoNutJob @virginmedia Should be that if your provider can’t fix the problem within 24hrs you should be allowed to terminate the contract at no cost to yourself & they must give you a Uk contact number because the Bombay warriors are F..kg useless at sorting a problem

  • IanCardy2 Ian Cardy (@IanCardy2) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    Service from @virginmedia is disgusting for existing customers! Dial 150 hold for 20mins someone answers but can hardly speak English then hang up when I ask for a new deal #customerservice try calling back & it’s busy so “sorry can’t help today call tomorrow 8am some of us work!

  • RubbermanPaul Paul Barton (@RubbermanPaul) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia well come home from working away on Friday with a lot of emails to reply to. To discover my router is broken wife phoned up Friday afternoon customer service said they would send one out by Monday shocking service I’m out of contract so will look elsewhere 😡😡😡

  • Marsoma Marsoma (@Marsoma) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve done all that. There was an issue in the post code but it says it’s sorted now, but it’s not. Still nothing at all!

  • lorraineayrton Lorraine Ayrton (@lorraineayrton) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia I have tried EVERYTHING to speak to a human however the automated rubbish doesn’t let me get there. It just tells me there is a problem that you are trying to fix. Clearly I am aware there is a problem and has been for sometime I have done all usual diagnostics my end

  • lorraineayrton Lorraine Ayrton (@lorraineayrton) reported from Bolton, England

    When you have 1001 things to do, Uber slow internet (yes @virginmedia I’ve tried switching on/off etc but still feel like I’m on dial up) and still haven’t a call time for job tomorrow is making me a proper grump #mondaythoughts #MondayMotivaton #MondayBlues #MondayMood

  • lorraineayrton Lorraine Ayrton (@lorraineayrton) reported from Bolton, England
