  • MJ_Humphries Martin Humphries (@MJ_Humphries) reported from Wilmslow, England

    @virginmedia I'm not typing out everything, having repeated myself for the last four months. See a/c 594717402 (area ref 20) for details. Customer service promised to call 30 mins after our latest conversation today. No call, 7 hours and counting. Just send the cheques!

  • leehow2 Lee Howarth (@leehow2) reported from Urmston, England

    @NOW awful service from you! You've messed me about for two weeks getting an engineer out to my #broadband and you still can't come for another 2 weeks despite the fact I'm a critical worker with no connection #cancelled and gone back to @virginmedia #usless

  • maximuslid Norbert Lad. (@maximuslid) reported from Knutsford, England

    @virginmedia I was advised everytime that the original agreement was correct in the notes and the bill would be amended. Each time it comes through on email it is wrong. And the credit has not been authorised. I'm paying £38 excess in first month as no credit applied. Help.

  • markroberts0007 Mark Roberts (@markroberts0007) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia hi there, we’ve had internet issues since we went to sleep last night. We live in m30. There is a flashing green light on the box, I’ve been on your website to try and reset the box etc. Have you any idea what’s going on?

  • maximuslid Norbert Lad. (@maximuslid) reported from Knutsford, England

    @virginmedia Hi, John sorted the problem, but sky sports HD is still NOT showing. It should be on BOTH boxes. Please fix ASAP.

  • andy4321 Andy Collier (@andy4321) reported from Stockport, England

    I'd never switch broadband to @virginmedia after hearing about their unfair charges on @joelycett #virginmedia

  • johncoxonmedia John E. Coxon (@johncoxonmedia) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Hi. Have reported to you here that independent engineer confirmed my connection is OK but hub 3 is faulty & needs replacing. You advised phone 150 again to book engineer. Your system does not enable that just offers fault trouble shoot txt message.

  • leehow2 Lee Howarth (@leehow2) reported from Urmston, England

    @NOWTV awful service from you! You've messed me about for two weeks getting an engineer out to my #broadband and you still can't come for another 2 weeks despite the fact I'm a critical worker with no connection #cancelled and gone back to @virginmedia #usless

  • Fatbelly57 Fatbelly 🇪🇺 💙💛 (@Fatbelly57) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Yes. I've checked the service status yesterday and twice today. I have screenshoted the result in my earlier tweet on this thread. What do I do now?

  • chrissy__w Chrissie (@chrissy__w) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia when your marketing team ring you and tell you that you have internet issues, advised I didn’t have any issues and the rude call handler just hung up. Rang from 01484313420. Not the best reflection for the company is it.

  • Fatbelly57 Fatbelly 🇪🇺 💙💛 (@Fatbelly57) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Hi John, I did that yesterday & the result was Virgin booked an engineer to attend Monday. However you texted this morning saying due to issues you had to cancel the Engineers visit that was booked for Monday. No further update or comms were given. What do we do? PLEASE HELP

  • SiManM20 Simon Manning (@SiManM20) reported from Manchester, England

    Anyone else on @virginmedia getting that weekly thing when their internet collapses again on a Sunday night? I’ve asked them repeatedly and they deny it but it’s a weekly outage like clockwork #VMSundayOutage

  • rickcharlesuk Rick Charles Media Services (@rickcharlesuk) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia fastest bb worst ping 💪🏻

  • leehow2 Lee Howarth (@leehow2) reported from Urmston, England

  • MJ_Humphries Martin Humphries (@MJ_Humphries) reported from Wilmslow, England

    @virginmedia Numerous times, and they are simply obstructive and unwilling to sort the problem. I'm appalled by the service quality.

  • Fatbelly57 Fatbelly 🇪🇺 💙💛 (@Fatbelly57) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Done that and it says no known issues. Why have you cancelled our engineer visit tomorrow. Please help

  • Fatbelly57 Fatbelly 🇪🇺 💙💛 (@Fatbelly57) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Hi Guy's, we've had no broadband for 36 hours now and you've just text to say you've had to cancel our engineer call tomorrow! What's going on? No broadband and no communication

  • SarahBeePhotos Sarah Bee Photography (@SarahBeePhotos) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia Terrible as always, you cannot deliver in this area, you’ve promised for a few years now but nothing changes, I’ve had to put us on unlimited data on the phones as the WiFi is not fit for purpose, I am on the highest speed apparently… shocking

  • MJ_Humphries Martin Humphries (@MJ_Humphries) reported from Wilmslow, England

    @virginmedia No thanks. Why is it so difficult for customer service to make a promised call?

  • JiriKPinnock J K P (@JiriKPinnock) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Does your customer service normally phoning at this time after 8pm from 08000521251?? Asking to verify my account??

  • xLepebble Lep (@xLepebble) reported

    @virginmedia Checked the service status yesterday and its still the same, its something wrong with the hub itself, its currently working perfectly fine but i can guarantee it will cut out soon for no reason, i think its broken itself. Its having some sort of wifi box electric mental breakdown

  • mightymarkuk Mark Bell (@mightymarkuk) reported

    @virginmedia What part of they haven't helped and will not help don't you understand?

  • DavidMrplumber David (@DavidMrplumber) reported

    @virginmedia Unfortunately but predictably no….unsurprising from VM. I’m now on a WhatsApp chat, been all morning trying to resolve this issue yet no nearer to doing so!

  • xLepebble Lep (@xLepebble) reported

    @virginmedia Went down again at 4am so I went to bed and its still not fixed itself since then. Just gonna have to pin reset it and hope it works till the engineer arrives between 12 and 2, which massively collides with my plans but it was either today or wait till Monday which is stupid 😒

  • mightymarkuk Mark Bell (@mightymarkuk) reported

    @virginmedia I've called 150 many times they still don't solve my problem. I'm not "privileged" yet I have a genuine problem & you have better equipment that could solve it. The forums aren't going to help me. I'm not investing in mesh wifi either when your equipment should be adequate.1/2

  • Fringillacious Andrew Brixey-Williams (@Fringillacious) reported

    @virginmedia please confirm any outage in the Southend on Sea area.

  • DavidMrplumber David (@DavidMrplumber) reported

    @virginmedia So I’ve just rang that number and the automated message says there’s still an issue yet you tell me everything is back on. Can you understand now how frustrating VM are?

  • mejulie64 Julie Bailey (@mejulie64) reported

    @virginmedia I said I had rebooted, reset etc the green flashing power light means there is a problem outside!

  • donnykebab1972 Kieron Griffin (@donnykebab1972) reported

    @virginmedia internet/WiFi down again

  • Rache1Cxx Rachel (@Rache1Cxx) reported

    @virginmedia Not great-your website says service should be back to normal but we have no internet or TV yet-bottom light on hub is just flashing green even after restarting
