    @virginmedia advice please! I’ve been a customer for over ten years and am also an o2 customer and my account is now going up by another £12 per month on a pretty basic package! Phoned twice and been told that someone will get back to me with a new price package - still nothing

  • tuite_liz
    Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia Could the problems in the area have caused damage to the equipment? As it was working fine before. Do I get compensation for all this time as the earliest appointment is Friday 14th?

  • tuite_liz
    Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia I looked and that says it’s from the day I registered the total loss of service which was yesterday but really it should be from Friday afternoon when I did the online chat. If I DM you can you check?

  • MarkLangshaw
    Mark Langshaw (@MarkLangshaw) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Was Thursday or Friday but you never call me back when you say you will, so I'm not confident it will be completed unless I keep chasing it up.

    @virginmedia any help?

  • RWBJ1997
    Jonesy (@RWBJ1997) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia your customer service team is proper shite. Your router is in the bin outside ours

  • AckerHeron
    Tony (@AckerHeron) reported from Liverpool, England

    Hi @virginmedia, my dear old mum has been on the phone for 20 minutes because her broadband has gone down. Your advisors keep saying to reset the hub and disconnecting before it's sorted. Any ideas? Still using the crap one you sent years ago despite her recontracting

  • DoctorRood
    DRood 🏳️‍🌈🎗 (@DoctorRood) reported from Chester, England

    @virginmedia I never expected any engineer, because I'm aware it's an outage that affects a lot of people. But your CS responses could be a lot better.

  • alandean1878
    Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia The nightmare continues!!! Buffering is now a way of life for us. As is watching any programme on a streaming service in short two minute bites!

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia 3 x engineer visits, each time telling me there’s a blockage. Why does nobody fix it? I can’t even get through to cancel my services and get a refund for the direct debits I’ve paid when I’ve had zero service.

  • aralph50
    Amanda Ralph (@aralph50) reported from Liverpool, England

    Please sort this out. You charge enough, surely we are entitled to a service that actually works??@virginmedia #virginmedia

  • Simonrob1984
    Simon Roberts (@Simonrob1984) reported from Saughall, England

    @virginmedia why is the service down in Chester area? #virginmediadown

  • realjackoh187
    Jack Kelly (@realjackoh187) reported from Widnes, England

    @virginmedia So I had loss of service but not complete even tho the service I had wasn't enough to even complete a 15 minute online training. Great. Even though you only have cold water, would you still get a bath? Nah don't think you would

  • jgrailpics
    James (@jgrailpics) reported from Liverpool, England

    Completely pathetic useless company @virginmedia Every single day there's some sort of problem EVERY SINGLE DAY Can't wait til this contracts over, after that in a bit useless crap

  • ChrisWAzure
    Chris Wright (@ChrisWAzure) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia The guy was the most arrogant person I've ever spoke to in CS, retentions is meant to be the end of the line, if it was my service and not my wife's 93 year old nan i'd have cancelled the contract. I asked to speak to a manager and was told "managers don't speak to customers"....

  • TimmyJ1972
    Tim Jackson (@TimmyJ1972) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve been told this before… yet it never happened when my bill was generated. Let’s see eh..

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia All the while taking my direct debit payments for a service I am not getting

    Internet down no good when working home #virginmediadown #virginmedia

  • tomrushton88
    Tom Rushton (@tomrushton88) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia And the last complaint I raised over this got cancelled because it didn't have any details to the complaint even though all the messages are there to see through your WhatsApp service but the retentions team can't see that or deal with the complaint or help in anyway way

    Virgin Media is still having an outage. Was supposed to be fixed yesterday, but now estimated fix is 15th April. I'm going (more) insane and I can't afford to not stream so I'll try to stream today at like 8pm ish regardless! 🫠

  • dandufton
    Daniel Dufton (@dandufton) reported

    @virginmedia My VM account has been locked out 'for security reasons' for over three weeks. I called the number given and was told it has been escalated to the techteam. Now three weeks on and I've heard nothing. Trying to chase on the phone but been on hold 25 mins. Help!

  • CNeto97
    Cal (@CNeto97) reported

    @virginmedia need help M217NS , WiFi down, landline down no way to call keeps disconnecting me on call and your team can’t hear me need to sort this asap

  • AlloquiStrix
    Alloqui Strix (@AlloquiStrix) reported

    @virginmedia Perhaps, but not 1 day then 7 days between updates on the same day & within minutes. If this was a water outage for this length of time there would be water tankers delivering water to houses - why are you not providing us with mobile data during this extended SNAFU.

  • shauny67
    Shaun (@shauny67) reported

    @virginmedia @sharonmariahall Yes excellent internet speeds & the only provider you can put the router into modem mode & add your own kit. 9 times out of 10 any WiFi issues are down to devices or where you have the router not the service. If you have a WiFi pod ensure you set up WiFi back haul.

  • dononerigby
    Riggers (@dononerigby) reported

    @virginmedia truly awful customer service stay on hold for an hour then get cut off I pay for services and then don't get them and then you can't get hold of them

  • clintontayls
    Clinton (@clintontayls) reported

    @virginmedia guess what another day being disappointed with a partial tv service. I complain using this medium and I get the run around🤬. It’s been ok for 2 years but sky was for 20+ years🤔

  • AlloquiStrix
    Alloqui Strix (@AlloquiStrix) reported

    @virginmedia First thing this morning you said the outage in my area (22) would continue for another week,then another message saying it would be fixed today, and now a message saying it'll be a week again. Is there a playbook you guys are using to wind up its customers?

  • ruthmpayne
    Ruth Payne (@ruthmpayne) reported

    @virginmedia the WiFi in Edgbaston / B16 has been down for 48 hours now. Tried finding out what’s happening but call centre was useless. When will this be sorted??? 48 hours is ridiculous
