    @samsamm @virginmedia Sorry to hear, you must have a different issue. This was definitely a transient blip every hour last night

  • GemFitzsimmons Gemma Fitzsimmons (@GemFitzsimmons) reported from Southampton, England

    @GarganEstelle @virginmedia My elderly mother is having the same problem, Virgin billed her again for the second month after cancelling. So now it'll be another day spent on hold and lied to. They are a nightmare and they do not care about the vulnerable. I hope your issue gets resolved!

    @sallyhillyear @virginmedia We always had broadband problems with them, so went back to Sky.

  • planetf1 Nigel Jones (@planetf1) reported from Eastleigh, England

    @sxaTech @antonpiatek @virginmedia @github Had some odd failures affecting other household members work and since poor geographical results sadly. So lost a fair bit of confidence

  • JessHambley J-Bear🌹🦋⚫ (@JessHambley) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I'm convinced not one single one of your staff members wants to help me. I'm high risk. NHS letter and everything... I only want to know when I'm finally getting my broadband 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

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

    its all well looking around for broadband, and I'm a @VodafoneUK customer, however, when @virginmedia are the only broadband provider you can get because @OpenreachHelp didnt bother covering your street, it makes it rather difficult #MartinLewis

  • JessHambley J-Bear🌹🦋⚫ (@JessHambley) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I have spent a stupid amount of time waiting for a response on your online chat, I'm classed as high risk and can't go shopping. I have been waiting for my broadband box to arrive. PLEASE HELP!!! Going insane....

  • kmadden96 Kevin Madden (@kmadden96) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia just had a handler hang up on me when trying to sort out a complaint about a debt that's not even mine! I get there's a pandemic but WTF. And I really cannot be assed waiting on hold to get through to someone. Can you look into it!

  • mummyhulk Lucy (@mummyhulk) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I am absolutely disgusted right now! My internet has been so slow since the weekend (dial up in the 90’s was quicker!) I have text the number to number I was told to and I have messaged on the chat and NOTHING!

  • GemFitzsimmons Gemma Fitzsimmons (@GemFitzsimmons) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I had confirmation that my mother's cancellation was noted, but never actioned. She was transfered to the cancellation team on the text, but has had no response after that, this was 4pm yesterday. This is a lot of stress for my 78 year old mother

  • _simon_taft SimonT (@_simon_taft) reported

    @virginmedia I need help! Moved out my home on 21st May. Received a txt from VM engineer on 24th May (3 days later) saying would pick up router on 9th July from new address. I agreed. Last week received txt saying will be charged on 21st June if equipment isn’t returned by then

  • lostcause25 TERRY AKA LOSTCAUSE XB.GT:oloPODGEolo (@lostcause25) reported

    @virginmedia Well me and my family won't be watching the euros at all as the Internet is Down again in Lancing I've reset the router turned off and on rebooted it from the main router admin page turned off all appliances so it can boot up still nothing what's the reason of this.

  • DelHillan Del Hillan (@DelHillan) reported

    @virginmedia Wires have been cut outside his property by the council cutting the grass, you refuse to come and fix it. Claim its an area outage, that's obvious because the wires have been cut, you refuse to acknowledge the wires and refuse to send an engineer,

  • littlespottydog 🍭 Lolly Golightly #GTTO🟥🟨#YesCymru (@littlespottydog) reported

    @_inspir3d @virginmedia Take your business somewhere else, these guys are shills. Sick of paying thru the nose for a shoddy service. Christ, even Talk Talk have to be better than this.

  • DelHillan Del Hillan (@DelHillan) reported

    @virginmedia Well you won't know until you send someone out to look at it, your refusal to do this is outrageous, 2 weeks to send someone out to even look at an issue, you are allowing a vulnerable pensioner to be alone without his services, why is absolutely no one in your company concerned?

  • amylitch Amy Litchfield (@amylitch) reported

    @virginmedia The Netflix app on your service hasn’t been working for a few months now. Any reason why??

  • BenMason232 Ben Mason (@BenMason232) reported

    I beg you NEVER to sign up to @Virgin @virginmedia 10 yrs of service and now THEY CANNOT PROVIDE THAT SERVICE where we are moving to. Their answer to that? £250 cancellation charge. Disgusting. Please like/share this to save others money #theives #Disgraceful #virginmediadown

  • DelHillan Del Hillan (@DelHillan) reported

    @virginmedia Ok so why won't you fix it then? Why is it taking 2 weeks to send someone out?

  • arslxnmc Shan (@arslxnmc) reported

    @easyjengy @ChrisAley1 @virginmedia Yikes so basically every broadband provider in the UK is crap
