  • richardcbishop Richard C. Bishop 🏃‍♂️ (@richardcbishop) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @Damien_Clyburn @virginmedia They're appalling. I've had business version for 10 years. BT never miss a beat. Outstanding. Get rid of them.

  • measlewolf Steve Lees (@measlewolf) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia Yes, the fault dates back from the 25th August and hopefully a fix will be made tomorrow, if not an engineer is booked for next week. When I finally got through the team were very helpful

  • CaseyRain Casey Rain (aka S-Endz) (@CaseyRain) reported from Birmingham, England

    Had an @virginmedia broadband outage on Sunday for 2 hours. Since then, connection so spotty that I'm getting 10 seconds of completely dropped packets followed by 20 seconds of slow-as-molasses ping times once every 10 minutes.

  • kolapoagunbiade TheBosz (@kolapoagunbiade) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately, you dont have a ticketing system or cobtact email to track issues, rather a phone system that requires you to wait forever to get through to an agent. A/c number: 095063606. I was charged x2.5 of what i was tp pay.

  • jordyanslow1 jordy (@jordyanslow1) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia any chance of an update regarding the outage in my local area regarding internet connection? It’s been down 2 days straight!

  • ________Danny Satish Danny Paul (@________Danny) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia I received my new 500+mps broadband only to get 6mps on my phone in my room. The Router is Terrible and cannot send the speed to devices via wifi. Not Good for anyone

  • Phil_Bonna Bonna (@Phil_Bonna) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Angela_Griffin @virginmedia I have the fibre optic broadband for £23.95 month and the customer service is great

  • jenkin99 jen (@jenkin99) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia We had issuse with our service, and was told we would need new cables. We the new cables installed. They left cabels hanging in the garden which has since been removed. Our grass is ruined (I have photos) it looks like next doors cable are also under or grass????

  • CaseyRain Casey Rain (aka S-Endz) (@CaseyRain) reported from Birmingham, England

    Causing me to drop out of a work meeting once every 10 minutes. Oh, and Virgin tried to blame it on my hardware? Except... My neighbour is seeing the EXACT same thing. This wasn't happening before the outage. @virginmedia why am I paying you lots of money for a spotty connection?

  • measlewolf Steve Lees (@measlewolf) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia I’m currently on hold. My mum is in her 70’s and waited in for an engineer only for them to send a text 10mins before to say you were coming in the 26th. The original appointment was the 21st and her TV service has been down for well over a week.

  • beffycuk 𝚋𝚎𝚝𝚑 (@beffycuk) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia Yes, and every-time it says no issue, when there clearly is! It interferes with everything, the hive, the tv everything! Really considering going elsewhere.

  • redron1975 Ronnie Harris (@redron1975) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia guess what ********* your system is down again. Useless pricks.

  • timhazelwood2 Tim Hazelwood (@timhazelwood2) reported from Bewdley, England

    @virginmedia Hi, following on from the resolution of the issue outlined above. My dad has received a full bill despite being assured by every employee we have spoken to that he wouldn't be charged for the period he was without service (more than two months). Please advise

  • measlewolf Steve Lees (@measlewolf) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia afternoon. I’ve been on hold for 25 mins and when I finally got through the line went dead after security questions. My mum has been without her TV service for over a week. Last night an engineer was due by 6 o’clock and never showed. Another text stating the 26th

    @Tilton247 @virginmedia I had the same for 2 years. Constantly disconnecting on a daily basis . Changed the Hub and it worked straight away. No issues since. Good luck getting a new hub off them though.

    @virginmedia I understand that your systems were down last night, which happens, but I’ve been on hold for 30 mins this morning. We have a text to say it’s resolved but it isn’t. I just need to speak to someone please.

  • NightRidervr1 Night Rider vr (@NightRidervr1) reported

    @virginmedia I fully understand the cost of everything is going up; did consider staying till your reps started insulting my intelligence, gaslighting me into thinking my new package with @Vodaphone4 was a 4g dongle plan, followed by a rep saying no cancel the new contract with the new isp

  • Jargon64 James Jarman (@Jargon64) reported

    @virginmedia One last question, do we pay for the days we are unable to access your service? Previously, when we've had outages, we've been compensated. I assume the same will occur?

  • peterjs0007 Pete (@peterjs0007) reported

    @virginmedia the worst customer service I’ve ever had the displeasure to experience. If this is how you treat all your customers you’ll soon have none

  • Jimlogan610 Jim Logan (@Jimlogan610) reported

    @virginmedia Yes - there has been damage to cable in the street but I have been promised every day that a technician/team will be to repair it but no-show everyday. No information forthcoming from customer services team - they don’t know as work to be done by 3rd party

  • PaulCrookhall Paul Johnson (@PaulCrookhall) reported

    @virginmedia What is the best number to call to get straight through to cancel my contract. Still having issues every night. Was told it would be fixed by today and sat here using my mobile data to write this.

  • teachkw81 Katy (@teachkw81) reported

    @virginmedia They tried to help us, it didn’t work, they cut us off. Literally don’t know what to do but we have no internet and the tv does not work properly

  • AshMoore_ Ashley Moore (@AshMoore_) reported

    @virginmedia I can't wait to leave this overpriced crappy broadband service this month. An absolute joke of a company, constantly losing connection

  • tomdkeating Tom Keating (@tomdkeating) reported from Carryduff, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia any idea why Broadband and TV are down all day today in BT8?

  • NikiRussell11 Niki Russell (@NikiRussell11) reported

    @virginmedia Yes but been on far ages and keep getting cut off. Tried chat too but they keep saying they are putting me through to the customer services team and then nothing happens.

  • LukeTilt88 Luke Tilt (@LukeTilt88) reported

    @virginmedia Absolute shambles of a company, never experienced worse customer service in my life! Anyone reading this DO NOT take out products with Virgin, they won’t let you cancel even after emailing you advising it’s ok to do so!!
