  • omarqureshi Omar Qureshi (@omarqureshi) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia What's the procedure if this isn't rectified? It's not a unusual request, yet I'm around 10 days without phone service.

  • Lacie_Adams1 Lacie_Adams (@Lacie_Adams1) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia Havent spoken to anyone since my post there are issues in my area which means I have no internet and no TV, during lockdown this is not the most ideal situation 2 nights in a row after finishing work! Been down for over an hour so far that I know of as thats when i got home

  • Lacie_Adams1 Lacie_Adams (@Lacie_Adams1) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia There are known issues in my area. Apparently 2 days in a row at, what i would imagine, are peak times. I seriously need to consider a new provider. This is getting beyond a joke for the money that I pay

  • kittykatrollins Helen Rollins (@kittykatrollins) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia hi. Trying to get through to you but permanently met with an automated voice. Please can someone contact me. We’ve been having broadband issues for a long time. tried to log into the hub but it says someone else is already logged in. We really need support from you.

  • Lacie_Adams1 Lacie_Adams (@Lacie_Adams1) reported from Wednesfield, England

    @virginmedia Back up and running but disruption in service and recorded programmes. With the amount of issues I've had since being with you, not once do I get an apology or money back for service I cant use

  • Lacie_Adams1 Lacie_Adams (@Lacie_Adams1) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia Come back home from work and all services are down again.... 2 days in a row...reported the issue... couldnt speak to a person... robot told me to wait 10 minutes and my problems will be fixed.... let's see what happens John

  • Lacie_Adams1 Lacie_Adams (@Lacie_Adams1) reported from Wednesfield, England

    @Truthisaperspe1 @virginmedia I do inform them of the issues.

  • Aaliya_UK Aaliya (@Aaliya_UK) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Not officially complained as hoped it would be resolved due to repeated reassurances I’ve had! Shouldn’t have to log a complaint for your error (verified by your engineers)! Cost of GP Partner husband (&my) time far exceeds cost of line rental we are paying for no landline!

  • MartinClarke165 Martin Clarke (@MartinClarke165) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia are the worst I’ve known them in 15 yrs! I’ve had no tv for the last few days and an engineer coming in a week! Really! Also have an outstanding contract issue since March 23rd. Promised call back by managers but never comes. Avoid them!!

  • ADaveWard David Ward (@ADaveWard) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    Thanks for the reply @virginmedia but in your instructions following your system check on your site it states you will be sending a signal to my hub to improve something. Nowhere does it date for me to do a pinhole reset. So which is correct because you need to correct something

  • sophiemorbey morble (@sophiemorbey) reported from Birmingham, England

    Within 24 hours of me ringing @virginmedia, we’re up and running with broadband (it’s also dead fast, bonus) 👏🏼 If anyone is considering @NOWTV for internet, PLEASE don’t bother. They are honestly the worst provider I’ve ever come across.

  • Junction10 Jason Sheldon (@Junction10) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia It always used to. It sees my address from the postcode & gives me the house number and street to choose, then asks me to complete a form for you to contact me to tell me within 10 days if the service is available in my area. It used to be instant, but no-one ever did contact me.

  • Fubz21 Fubz (@Fubz21) reported from Dudley, England

    @Angriper @virginmedia @SkyUK If I could get Sky here (at least decent speeds) I'd have switched years ago mate. Although, the way things are going, I'd be better off with poor download speed and uptime, rather than super fast speeds and always down.

  • Aaliya_UK Aaliya (@Aaliya_UK) reported from Birmingham, England

    Had v patchy internet, when @virginmedia resolved it in April, they connected the wrong cable, cutting off our landline for pt calls (mobile blackspot) Numerous promises frm managers @virginmedia & “urgent service requests” since. Last engineer visited yest. Still not resolved😡

  • Fubz21 Fubz (@Fubz21) reported from Dudley, England

    5th time today @virginmedia has gone down, got zero work done and no response from customer services. Last straw for me this, as if I'm not under enough stress from work as it is!

  • FroggattSimon Simon Froggatt (@FroggattSimon) reported from Solihull, England

    @davo1982 @virginmedia Went down in B92 also Fudgy. Up again after 45 mins. Does crash too often

  • JamieEveriss . JAY! (@JamieEveriss) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia can you please advise how I’m able to log a complaint?

  • mavMclovin77 STEEEB (@mavMclovin77) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia been very poor,in B29, had the hub replaced Friday,still no better,awful service

  • Lacie_Adams1 Lacie_Adams (@Lacie_Adams1) reported from Wednesfield, England

    @Phlebian @Truthisaperspe1 @virginmedia If you go to there website and type in your postcode it states if there are issues in the area. I am aware of how to report issues and how to check for them without making contact, when call always same response of the script they have in front of them. No human aspect to the cal

  • Lacie_Adams1 Lacie_Adams (@Lacie_Adams1) reported from Wednesfield, England

    @virginmedia Someone actually looking into my account, the issues I've had and money back would be nice

    @virginmedia What's the update on services. I would like to be able to watch the service you charge me so much for!

  • Redchris1964 Red Chris (@Redchris1964) reported

    @virginmedia..... Hi the last few weeks your broadband has gone on and off in the daytime and now we have only a few TV channels left to watch because of another outage problem..... can you make your service "fit for purpose" .

  • Chillidreams Dave Holland (@Chillidreams) reported

    @virginmedia when are you going to fix the tv problem in Slough. Can’t get through on your site or by phone

  • paulslunny Paul Lunny (@paulslunny) reported

    Weird... I just had my VirginMedia v6 TV box collected a couple of days ago - had never known it go down. #virginmedia #cutwascut

  • lavery_gg Gavin Lavery (@lavery_gg) reported

    Thanks @virginmedia Your new equipment arrives almost 48 hrs late and then your help line for installation just says call back later. Very poor service for a new customer! 👎👎

  • WHITE_R12 RICHARD WHITE (@WHITE_R12) reported

    @virginmedia I take it we will be reimbursed as you cannot supply the service ,look forward to your quick response, as I am sure if I held my payments back to you ,you would soon be on to me .

  • Dje1889 Daniel Edwards (@Dje1889) reported

    @virginmedia hi there, my TV has been down for some time, can you tell me what the problem is, I'm based in leeds !!!

  • AnnieGE2 AnnieGE2 (@AnnieGE2) reported

    @MrsWardley @FreeviewAdvice After giving up on the freeview channels, I did check again about 90 mins later before I had to leave home and the channels had returned... Still want to know what happened to cause this big outage? (Btw our separate Virgin Media cable TV service suddenly failed today too, odd.)

  • irinamwells Irina M Wells (@irinamwells) reported

    @virginmedia What about the internet? I was just told on the phone by your team that broadband is down because of this issue, yet no mention of that here and I can see that you're asking ppl additional questions when they say their broadband is down as if it isn't part of it
