    @virginmedia I have not been able to connect to the Internet for well over 48 hours now, can't work, watch TV or even listen to the radio as no 4g or 5g signal at home. Not happy

    Karen Simpson (@kaz123s) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia so we’ve been with out our tv service since yesterday morning. The service checker has had the fixed time extended twice. What is going on?

  • Macsaint99
    Mark Cook (@Macsaint99) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia @TimTastic38 Ok, so if we paid part of the bill as we had a loss of service for part of the day that would be fine too?????

    Sarah-Jane Finch (@formula1girl) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I have just spoken to collections team who told me they cannot deal with my issue. They passed me to cancellation team who said they cannot deal with it only collections can. The issue is that I cancelled in July but you have no record of my call or letter.

  • KpRoebuck
    Spider (@KpRoebuck) reported from Eastleigh, England

    @virginmedia I have twice called to discuss the price of my package & twice, after eventually speaking to someone, they attempt to transfer me to customer services but cut me off. I've been with Virgin for over a decade but I'm being penalised for my loyalty. Please help

  • DIZZYDJC
    Daniel John 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺 (@DIZZYDJC) reported from West End, England

    @virginmedia It's both. I have been doing some digging and it's the upload speeds. They are not getting anywhere over 2MB /sec which is not good enough. It has been very slow over the last couple of days

  • Alec2306
    Alec Clapperton (@Alec2306) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia I have been constantly looking at the site and it keeps telling me there are no issues. It only appears to be WiFi that is an issue

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia Yes. A third party has just arrived to pull cables and they can’t do their work because Virgin haven’t actioned the construction. 9 weeks down the line and it hasn’t even been actioned from your end. So poor.

  • rahim94
    Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    I'm gonna summarise 2 things I've developed a verdict on since my tv broke down. the @virginmedia app for windows = perfect. works great. the @SkySports app for windows = ******* horrendus! i dont understand why sky sports needs a separate app to watch them

  • PandaKingPinder
    Panda 🐼 (@PandaKingPinder) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia We have tried adding a new service and thinking of leaving as none of the others apply and there is no option to call for upgrading. Your automatic service is not helpful and it would be easier to just go through to speak to someone.

  • rahim94
    Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    So there's me hoping to watch the #SingaporeGP in full before work then it gets delayed by an hour. **** sake. Thank God for the @virginmedia app. (Dear god I hate working late shifts with a passion) #F1

  • BrainTumourSurg
    Paul Grundy (@BrainTumourSurg) reported from Winchester, England

    Thanks to @virginmedia they install new broadband which worked for about 5 minutes. Now nothing. Follow all instructions to fix. Waited 5 hours this morning for the privilege and now 1 hour on phone still on hold Should have paid attention to the terrible reviews #wastedmyday 🤬

  • Mike4Eastleigh
    Mike Thornton (@Mike4Eastleigh) reported from Fair Oak, England

    @virginmedia So absolutely no help from Virgin Media. My broadband is down. I go on line and it says there are no issues in SO50 6BP. I click on fox my broad band and of course it can’t because I have NO broadband!

  • Alec2306
    Alec Clapperton (@Alec2306) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia I have done all of this multiple times and nothing has come up. Today has been particularly bad where I lose signal every 5 minutes. I don’t need to keep doing the troubleshooting steps, I need a new router or an engineer

  • obcans
    mark wilson (@obcans) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I fail to see wot difference that make my Wi-Fi is rubbish my Internet drops in and out all the time I have hours on the phone with people and it's still the same I want something done about it 😫

    @virginmedia Internet down yet again, sick of this crap. Time to cancel.

    @Carolestfc1 @virginmedia Worst company I have ever dealt with and it's not even close. They'll screw your credit rating by mistake and never, ever fix it. They'll hang up on you, the staff don't put notes on accounts and you have to tell the same story to 20 different disinterested call centre staff.

  • PeteNCFC1862

    @Derek959Derek @RayJones34 All the big 3 providers do it via the Good Things Foundation, apart from EE and BT who have there own arrangements for helping with data poverty. These help people on benefits so official status and a NI number is needed . Virgin Media O2 Vodaphone 3 do it via Databank .

    Tilal Manzoor (@tilalx) reported

    @virginmedia Another day, another excuse from your service team. I message them and they have say nobody is coming: "I'm really sorry for the inconvenience caused. As I checked, the appointment was not attended due to technician unavailability."

    Hey @virginmedia and @SkySports do you want to give people a heads up about this weekend RED button matches not ******* working again while taking millions of pounds out of people's bank accounts for ******* **** service ? #Virgin #RedButton #Football

  • The_real_Jambo_
    Jambo (@The_real_Jambo_) reported

    @virginmedia @alexand979677 I had no TV service for 16 days during the worldcup. Eventually fixed it and they refused to discount my bill because I still had internet. Been with them for nearly 7 years, renewals up soon and the best price they can offer is £15 DEARER than my current price.

    @virginmedia It’s been going on for weeks now and the completion date keeps getting pushed back meanwhile I have to deal with terrible internet connection

  • AdrianBoarder
    leave us alone (@AdrianBoarder) reported

    @IainSankey @virginmedia Depending on the 5g service where you live I purchased a £100 5G router and an EE unlimited data sim for £20 a month. I’m not in an especially good area for EE 5G but I still get 80-100MB download and 2-10 upload which is more than enjoy for me.
