  • kaths77x Kathryn Skelly (@kaths77x) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia disgusted that as a valued customer for over 15 years, I’m moving property, wanting to move my services to my new address but because it is above a business you will not install so you are charging me for closing my account which I do not want to do 😡

  • Benmorley23 Ben Morley (@Benmorley23) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia @Ofcom I now have a recording of the last advisor who I spoken to... terrible terrible service and I will not ever return to @virginmedia. What a waste after 20 years of being with you. What a shame, I will send the recording to @ofcom and cancel the direct debit 👍🏻

  • jmcloughlin jmcloughlin (@jmcloughlin) reported from Liverpool, England

    ITV is down on Virgin Media in Liverpool. This means Gardeners’ World is going to get ratings akin to City of Death Part 4.

  • BobbyBattersby bobby (@BobbyBattersby) reported from Chorley, England

    @ITV gone down on @virginmedia

  • Benmorley23 Ben Morley (@Benmorley23) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia You replying like this is extremely poor customer service. You are insinuating I have been disconnected when I simply want cancel my account. **** it I’ll cancel the direct debit and just leave the country. @Ofcom

  • CllrMichaelHaw Councillor Michael Haw (@CllrMichaelHaw) reported from Eccleston, England

    @stevehhh so if there are issues with Virgin Media they can easily switch to BT. If BT High Speed Fibre Optic broadband can be secured sooner, rather than later, those residents who are experiencing issues with Virgin Media can switch/be able to access the High Speed Fibre Optic service.

  • KRobbo1982 Karl Robinson (@KRobbo1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia are a joke! Ive lost my services for today due to their incompetence. Been on the phone for 45 mins and got nowhere. Complaint lodged which will also get nowhere i bet.

  • Alisonbirchall4 Alison Birchall (@Alisonbirchall4) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia and I can’t get on the service status page either!

  • ChrisPhelps78 Chris Phelps (@ChrisPhelps78) reported from Urmston, England

    @virginmedia No area problems I am at a lose I’m tech savvy and rather sort myself but if I can’t or your engineers I give up.

  • UBuildmain Jeff Griffiths (@UBuildmain) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia Thanks virgin media for putting my bill up yet agin with out any prior warning. Messaged and still no reply shocking customer service 🤬

  • Shotstopper007 Karl Smyth (@Shotstopper007) reported from Urmston, England

    @virginmedia @VikkiJohnstone Your service page doesn’t work either. Get the message, this page isn’t working right now. Try again later or log into your own account. Try to log in, and that isn’t working either!!!!! What the hell is going on. I moved from sky to get away from this, and not it happened again

  • CllrMichaelHaw Councillor Michael Haw (@CllrMichaelHaw) reported from Eccleston, England

    @stevehhh Virgin media is accessible, the problem has been reliability. A number of residents on those roads listed have had severe issues with the service & from experience BT Broadband is the more reliable. For example, in Eccleston Park residents now have access to Virgin & BT... [cont]

  • pettifet lester pettifer (@pettifet) reported

    @virginmedia Morning the Wi-Fi had switched itself back on without us doing anything so must have been an issue with yourselves!? If you want to cancel the appointment we are OK with this so look forward to hearing from you?

  • CaNNs4 CJ (@CaNNs4) reported

    @virginmedia I recommend having a look at the tweets from people all over the country which been posted since approx midnight. Service lines don't have up to date info, service pages are off line, diag pages just refuse to load. When I was VM tech support this info would be escalated ASAP.

  • QuantumSkyline Quantum Skyline (@QuantumSkyline) reported

    @virginmedia Have you checked the service status website? It isn't working either! Can you find out if it was planned works instead of telling us all it "may" have been?
