  • jim_dawes James Dawes (@jim_dawes) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia service just gets worse and worse. 3 days with no TV service whatsoever, and now no Internet either in SE7. It's simply not good enough anymore. Your service has been declining rapidly for over a year. Sort it out please.

  • kellydyke08 Kelly **** (@kellydyke08) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia time now 11:14pm and certain channels still aren’t working, things said they have recorded when they haven’t, search function also still not working code c133. I think a refund is due to a lot of customers 👎🏻👎🏻#virginmediadown

  • moebius1967 ron palmer (@moebius1967) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    Wow Virgin media TV services are down nationwide due to a power outage. That's an awful lot of compensation.

  • damienk11 Damien Kelly (@damienk11) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia broadband service in Greenwich London is shocking, hasn't been working for 1 week now and when I've rang customer services multiple times, all they try to do is up-sell me on their other more expensive packages. Terror to think we pay for this service!!!!

  • richardpettet Richard Pettet (@richardpettet) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia And the reset password page doesn't work either. Same issue. I've seen others reporting this.

  • AdiStaempfli Adi Staempfli (@AdiStaempfli) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Rather loose a long-standing customer then?

  • bultifish Nick Bultitude (@bultifish) reported from Gravesend, England

    Hmm, #Skyglass is looking like a decent option if this #virginmedia outage becomes a habit.

  • pinknblue Helen Dickens (pinknblue):) (@pinknblue) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia hello Merry Christmas. If any one is there today so you know 8f the e mails are down as from early this morning it keeps asking me to put in mu password and then not recognising it but won't let me re set either and I can't send or receive any e mails :(

  • markandall Mark O'Brien (@markandall) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia 4.45 on Saturday evening you text me to move my install from Monday 9am to some day in 3 weeks time .. And now no one available to help?

  • hairydalek ⭐️ 🇪🇺 Paul ⭐️ Dunning 🇪🇺 ⭐️ (@hairydalek) reported from Writtle, England

    Sadly, the @horror_channel catchup service isn’t on @virginmedia , which is a total bummer.

  • alanburkittgray Alan Burkitt-Gray (@alanburkittgray) reported from London, England

    I have hardly ever heard a good word about @virginmedia service. Why is it so hard to fix?

  • briggsym matt (@briggsym) reported from Wickford, England

    @virginmedia how can I complain about internet reliability from your service. It has been appalling and inconsistent and seriously considering moving to another provider.

  • briggsym matt (@briggsym) reported from Wickford, England

    @virginmedia broadband speeds are awful - who should I go with @SkyUK or @BTGroup

  • VenusEnvi VenusEnvi (@VenusEnvi) reported from Grays, England

    @virginmedia what’s the point of asking me to text when I’m ready to set up the new hub if your going to deactivate the old one before I’m ready!! Good job I have unlimited data on my mobile network!!

  • pauldee74 Paul Dwyer (@pauldee74) reported from Grays, England

    @virginmedia 02038271376 is this one of your numbers been getting calls for 3 days saying there virgin and problem with my internet!!!

  • RogerHighfield Roger Highfield (@RogerHighfield) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia l have lost the internet - any issues in Greenwich/area 21/SE10 and, if so, when can l get my life back!?

  • jim_dawes James Dawes (@jim_dawes) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia WiFi is down in the London SE7 area yet again - that's the 3rd time this month. What's the 'engineering fault' this time, eh? Is it incompetance, apathy or a combination of the two? When will my service be resumed???

  • AViTSCJ Scott Jackson (@AViTSCJ) reported from Gravesend, England

    @virginmedia why is it when you request cancellation of service via phone and getting cut off mid call , then sending and email and also trying to chase via web chat which I also sent my request for cancellation and then move out two months later . They keep the account open 🤬

  • AdiStaempfli Adi Staempfli (@AdiStaempfli) reported from London, England

    After 10 years with @virginmedia , & after weeks of terrible WiFi & customer service, I asked they equal BT’s deal. Operator could not do that and would not let me talk to manager, nor send a message for call back. I asked x3. Operator terminated call. Poor service!

  • adiesmith64 ⚒Adrian Smith⚒ (@adiesmith64) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @KAYI50747133 @virginmedia Yep how you have explained it is exactly the same for me, have tried my 2nd box upstairs but the same problem!

  • mulac1992 Cal (@mulac1992) reported

    @virginmedia so I’ve had to pay a £140 bill that I’m not going to have a service for, and you wait 30 days to refund me via a cheque? Are you stuck in 2005? You horrible thieving *****

  • melissar954 Melissa (@melissar954) reported

    2 whole months with out broadband. @virginmedia are a complete joke. No communication, no idea if I’ll ever get my service which they are still billing me for back.

  • plzuninstall Richie (@plzuninstall) reported

    @virginmedia I can't login to find out. My email is attached to a closed account.

  • rahul_ghose mirage (@rahul_ghose) reported

    @virginmedia Problem was resolved by the customer care chat

  • SandraIronside Sandra Ironside (@SandraIronside) reported

    @virginmedia You don’t have to look far to see many people have the same issue. I note from one FB post where someone’s elderly mother without phone service was also still waiting for her letter, that the blame was placed on Royal Mail.

  • arnie1984 James Arnold (@arnie1984) reported

    @virginmedia Speed test or black spots or something I've been told. The issue we have is the previous tenant has the main connection upstairs. Therefore the router is in our bedroom rather than the centre of the house or front room where it should be.

  • PaulMcHugh22 Paul McHugh (@PaulMcHugh22) reported

    @virginmedia I’m trying to cancel my service. I haven’t been able to speak with anyone in days. Is this how you retain your customers?

  • BacalieriB BobbyBacalieri (@BacalieriB) reported

    @virginmedia how do I speak to an advisor. Tried for 3 days on WhatsApp service?

  • KW___04 KW4 (@KW___04) reported

    @virginmedia pls can someone respond on the chat service 😩

  • LegitBoss69 🦄 UnicornFarts641🦄 BossQueenie 👑 (@LegitBoss69) reported

    @virginmedia That's problem. They aren't. We had to pay our food money that we should not of needed to pay ontop of what we usually pay and our services are STILL off!!! I'm very ill and had enough of the hassle
