  Tom Rushton (@tomrushton88) reported 4 minutes ago from Haydock, England

  @virginmedia And the last complaint I raised over this got cancelled because it didn't have any details to the complaint even though all the messages are there to see through your WhatsApp service but the retentions team can't see that or deal with the complaint or help in anyway way

  @virginmedia Yeah.. apparently its down in WN1 but nobody is telling me what's wrong or how long it will take. I need Internet to work.

  Richard Foster (@fos100) reported 9 minutes ago from New Longton, England

  @virginmedia That just wants me to upgrade my package; I just want to order the pods. Why is the website so poor?

  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 10 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.

• 
  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 12 minutes ago from Atherton, England

  @virginmedia I first informed Virgin Media that my internet was down via online chat on Friday afternoon. Will this have automatically been the time when my loss of service was registered as at the time the advisor said it would be fixed in 24 hours?

• 
  Rick Leeming - Beaker (@BeakerRick) reported 16 minutes ago from Preston, England

  @virginmedia Yes and yes. I even wiped it totally a week or so ago. My wife as an iPhoneSE and is experiencing the same problem.

  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

  Graeme Radebe (@Radebreast) reported 36 minutes ago from Ormskirk, England

  @virginmedia Hi - Ive noticed alot of people are having the same issues. Its the Sky TV Go app on Playstation 4. Ive checked it on another internet and it works fine so it is definitely an error on your side. You need to sort the internet settings. It struggles to load “on Now” on the app.

• 
  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 39 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.

  John Kelly (@John_Kelly17) reported 43 minutes ago from St Helens, England

  @CruisingTheCut I’ve had very few issues with virgin media - depends if you need TV though. Otherwise I’ve heard very good things about over the air using the three network or EE.

  @Virgin #virginmediadown Virgin media is an absolute bag of ****, pass it on

• 
  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 45 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?

• 
  Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported 46 minutes ago from St Helens, England

  @virginmedia are an absolute joke. Was told to call back at half 6 and guess what? They’re shut! And again, no engineer visit. Getting cancelled 1st thing in the morning. Over a month of total loss of service, piss take. #avoid

  Tim Cooke 🇺🇦 (@timmycooke) reported 49 minutes ago from Wigan, England

  @virginmedia Both wired and wireless. We've had 8 engineers out, a rewire, new hub and still endless drop outs. Was told finally it was an upload issue from the amp that supplied the box on the street. But still we're having issues. The 150 number is joke, make it simple!!!

  🥔 A bean has no name 🥔 (@ylilxanoi) reported 52 minutes ago from Wigan, England

  @virginmedia my interest been down for a whole week. Call centre staff don't know what to say. An engineer has been on site every single day apparently. Can someone fix my internet. I pay £52 a month this is beyond a joke. I've used all my 4g& bought a ****** dongle just to WFH

  Wightpie (@wightpie) reported 54 minutes 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 59 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.

  Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported 60 minutes ago from Eccleston, England

  @virginmedia I have a booster. It was sent to me last Spring because of previous problems with TV in this room.

  Melvyn Malloch (@melvynmalloch) reported 14 minutes ago

  @virginmedia moved to your broadband service from @TalkTalk a few months ago it's something I regret everyday. Your customer service is non existent calls cut off before getting any help same as online help. I have a smart home with multiple devices that can't connect have never

  @TheNotoriousMMA @LOCthedreamer2 Ireland 🇮🇪 needs an alternative news channel to the government funded stations like Rte/ newstalk/ virgin media etc until then things will not change as we have s generation who solely watch this absolute garbage… we need an alternative like GB news in the uk …

• 
  CarryOnGemma (@CarryOnGemma) reported 18 minutes ago

  And the two guys who help us get our media up and running don't get a mention because Virgin have not asked us how they did. That'e because they were from another region and it doesn't represent how **** VIRGIN MEDIA is in Scotland.

  Kelly Turner (@kellyj70) reported 20 minutes ago

  @virginmedia My son is job hunting and needs the internet. What with issues with you taking over my son’s Netflix account and giving us ads, we’ve had several times where we have lost services. Only renewed a few weeks ago! Wish I’d gone to Sky.

  @mitchlog @dejanirasilveir What in God's name does he get at that price?? I hope it's top notch. That#s a rip-off. I've heard bad things about Virgin Media. Help him to change to someone else.

  Gareth (@GPRO2023) reported 23 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I want a call from a manager ASAP as I am sick of all your empty promises and poor customer journey. I've been trying to get this resolved the past 3 weeks!!!

  @JayneCellis @PatrickChristys @virginmedia I would hope all HR departments up and down the country are urgently reviewing their safeguarding policies not only when their Sikh employees are working in customers homes but also in their workplaces working alongside others who can not and do not carry any weapons when at work
