  Wightpie (@wightpie) reported 23 seconds ago from Blackburn, England

  @virginmedia So why then a) does it specify postal and b) not provide a field for mobile number. At best it’s misleading and at worst incompetent

• 
  Ian Hawksey (@ShanklyBob77) reported 23 minutes ago from Aintree Village, England

  Absolute nightmare trying to watch @SkySportsF1 on my phone because of how poor @virginmedia are especially since merging with @o2, used to just put email and password in, now going around in circles with same message asking me to verify email link and switch, very poor practice.

  @virginmedia Internet is down in our area since Monday. I keep getting multiple emails saying it'll be fixed by 12pm tomorrow, then 4pm Wednesday 12pm Thursday, 12pm Friday and now 4pm Friday. None of your call centre staff can help us we've spent hours on hold this week.

  @virginmedia really poor coverage here PR4 6, is there a mast problem?

• 
  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 34 minutes ago from Atherton, England

  @virginmedia I looked and that says it’s from the day I registered the total loss of service which was yesterday but really it should be from Friday afternoon when I did the online chat. If I DM you can you check?

  @virginmedia you are so crap we don't pay you to keep having problems daily

  UtilitaRian 🔶 (@SoloUtilitaRian) reported 40 minutes ago from Bolton, England

  With the intro of new dedicated Gigabit lines in my street I can't wait to switch over and leave Virgin Media for good. 3x internet has gone down this week and I just called VM. The systems there are down and gotta call back in 3hrs..... useless

  Bert Nash (@BertNashCha) reported 41 minutes ago from Bolton, England

  @virginmedia @VirginMedia_TV any help/advice on moving house. Want to stay with Virgin but can't speak to anyone and the home move team have said they've cancelled the policy? 3 days trying to speak to someone.

• 
  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 41 minutes ago from St Helens, England

  @virginmedia I reported a total loss of service on 31/8. It was finally fixed this morning. After no shows, lies and weeks between visits. They have not even offered to cover the cost of my last 3 dd’s which I wish I hadn’t paid as I had no service whatsoever

• 
  Christopher Fox (@ChrisFoxRacing) reported 41 minutes ago from Bolton, England

  @virginmedia Already reported the broadband issues, and it's an issue where estimated fix times keep getting pushed back. With regards to mobile issues, this has been around the same length of time. The only way I've been able to get any connection at all is by switching to 3G

• 
  Richard Foster (@fos100) reported 42 minutes ago from New Longton, England

  Since I moved, the @virginmedia connection has been terrible. I’ve had an engineer out, had a booster put on, been told on numerous occasions to reboot the hub. This shouldn’t be needed. Their website is horrendous to use and largely involves linking to help guides 1/?

• 
  Baxy (@Baxy2001) reported 44 minutes ago from Wigan, England

  @virginmedia please can you explain why I have been in a queue to speak to someone for over 35 minutes to try and cancel my contract? Absolute joke of a company, poor services and poor customer service.

• 
  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 44 minutes ago from St Helens, England

  @virginmedia 3 x engineer visits, each time telling me there’s a blockage. Why does nobody fix it? I can’t even get through to cancel my services and get a refund for the direct debits I’ve paid when I’ve had zero service.

• 
  Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported 48 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.

• 
  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 49 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

• 
  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 50 minutes ago from St Helens, England

  @virginmedia Telling me an engineer will come next week now, not good enough. Waited in all morning for one that never came and still no service.

• 
  Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported 51 minutes ago from Westhoughton, England

  @virginmedia 3 times in 3 weeks we are without internet! We are paying for a service we are not able to use! Are we going to be compensated for this?

• 
  owen southworth (@obpls1995) reported 54 minutes ago from Wigan, England

  @virginmedia can you explain why the moment I told your staff over the phone that I was disabled they decided to speak to me as if I was an idiot and then tell me they can't help me because I can't spell out my password despite telling them 5 times what the password was.

• 
  TheAspiLawStudent #NoReturns (@LawAspi) reported 57 minutes ago from Chorley, England

  @nerdscav @the_hinchy @virginmedia Yes because a WiFi extender will fix the issue when it's the incoming line and not the hardware 😳. The routers gives a 3ping and 1GBps connection. The issue is virgin's crappy network 👍

• 
  kevin.james (@pillbo01) reported 58 minutes ago from Bolton, England

  I have virgin media but they don’t have a Customer service that you can speak to. Or email I’ve had a problem for over a month since an engineer messed about in the box in the street. Picture on tv keeps pixilated.

  Darren Danks (@thedazdanks) reported 6 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I’m sure I’m not the only one who doesn’t have their phone next to their hub. What if an elderly customer has phone and hub in separate rooms but need the phone as part of their care and wellbeing. Would your advice still be to just move one of them?

• 
  MachineGunLukey (@MachineGunLuk3y) reported 6 minutes ago

  @virginmedia will I get compensation from you for being down ? …… I work from home and you are now costing me money for every hour you are down ?

• 
  The Way We Will Be (@TheWayWeWillBe) reported 10 minutes ago

  @virginmedia so cross with you again today Not only is the broadband up and down as usual (but tests show fine) but you won’t allow me to log in from my Apple Mac and you won’t allow me to update parental controls Useless

  DEAN SUPPORT (@Dean_Xyber1) reported 15 minutes ago

  @lukewarm14 @O2 @virginmedia I can help send me a DM

  jason (@Jason29wctb) reported 15 minutes ago

  Thanks to the VM staff on here for all the attempted help , found me first text on this broadband fault and it was January 2021 , disconnection next month off to get working internet ,VM needs to stop concentrating on speed and fix lack of quality @virginmedia

• 
  Claire Branscombe (@DjClaireb) reported 17 minutes ago

  @virginmedia any reason why we have constant buffering issues on all HD channels at all? Primarily sky sports and More 4. Have checked our status and all good. Unable to watch the Hundred ticket today as it freezes

  @trapdoor456 @virginmedia I have had You Fibre for 2 1/2 years and had no issues

  @virginmedia YOUR SERVICE IS ******* ****!!!!!

• 
  James Durrant (@je_durrant) reported 22 minutes ago

  @coveragechecker @virginmedia Was initially a local outage but turned into someone had unplugged my cable at the exchange and it needed replacing. Sh*t happens, I get it, but to leave someone who pays £1500 a year for a service without anything for a month is plain bad

  @Szlater2 This happens with loads companies I.e AA- Virgin Media-Pet Insurance companies being a loyal customer is not worth it like youst to be they rely on people just renewing rather than shop around
