    This is what I get for being a customer for over 8 continuous years and then 5 years before that. This is awful customer service by Virgin media. #Virginmedia @virginmedia

  • BobCratchitt
    Andee Byford (@BobCratchitt) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia But your hub has died and as such I cannot access my broadband, use my landline as you moved it from copper to Ethernet and the TV services are impacted as I cannot record, watch the BBC or any streaming service. In short an outage.

    Your website for checking status is not loading. Can you verify if there are known issues with broadband in the se3 area. Thanks @virginmedia

    Baz, Wacky worm! (@mobiusb2) reported from Lambeth, England

    Oh great Broadband broken! , and now got to wait in for Virgin media to fix it tommorow afternoon. Probably punishment for not watching the funeral.

    @virginmedia Hi @virginmedia guess what? I still have no wifi. Our 8th engineer visit scheduled for today (this time rescheduled because they needed a permit for the work). Just had a text saying engineer will be here next Tuesday now. Livid does not cut it. What kind of service is this?!

  • DJMRT
    DJ MRT (@DJMRT) reported from Sutton, England

    It would appear that despite 3 emails to @virginmedia regarding their lack of service, their rubbish broadband and the fact my TV hasn’t worked since November - they have instead chosen to engage debt collectors for a £141.54 (for ONE MONTH) bill. See you in court then I guess.

  • markselondon
    Mark 🌈🏳️‍🌈 (@markselondon) reported from Blackheath, England

    @virginmedia Broadband down again this morning in SE London, got through to customer services and they advised the outage expected to be fixed by 12th April. No compensation offered and I would have to pay a penalty to cancel my contract.

  • Phil_Swallow
    Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, England

    @vmbusiness outage estimated fix date is 20/09. What planet are you lot on?

  • declan1968
    Declan Higgins ☘ (@declan1968) reported from Southwark, England

    @virginmedia Oh yeah. Nothing that explains why it keeps happening though. Fix dates are usually meaningless. Feels like we're being rationed.

  • Ivan_Petrov
    Ivan L Petrov 伊凡🇺🇦 (@Ivan_Petrov) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia Is there an outage in SW4? I checked the online status on your webpage, but it says there are no issues and yet I do not have internet at home.

  • gorgeousuk
    anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from Bromley, England

    My day off and I still cannot watch Amazon prime due to virgin media delivering a ****** service. I really think we need to switch providers now. Enough is enough.

  • itsmartamoya
    Marta (@itsmartamoya) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia I have had replies from a bot but impossible to speak to the agent. I will put a formal complaint if I don’t hear from an agent.

  • traymca
    traymca 💙 (@traymca) reported from Worcester Park, England

    @virginmedia this is getting ridiculous now! What’s happening with your service again today!!! Trying to watch on @BBCiPlayer and it buffers every 30 seconds!! Can’t watch anything and accessing websites including your own is so painful #virginmediadown #virginmedia

  • RPLibDems
    Raynes Park Lib Dems (@RPLibDems) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia @RichMeader Could the web page be updated with the fix date please so people can plan accordingly?

  • markselondon
    Mark 🌈🏳️‍🌈 (@markselondon) reported from Blackheath, England

    @virginmedia Broadband gone down again in SE3 8HT area, I’ve reset the hub 3times and still no Wi-Fi or broadband. I’m using data on my phone again.

  • Flipringer
    Philippa Rooke (@Flipringer) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I've been on the website & phone help for 2 hrs trying to get contact number changed on our acct (it's incorrect & won't save any edit via any device) but can't get a route to the correct help. We have an engineer coming who needs correct number, what can I do?

  • PJacksonClark
    #TeamParkinsons Paul (@PJacksonClark) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia I've covered all the options; there aren't many. It tells me there are no problems in my area and then defaults to the bot chat.

  • millwalljdb
    Millwall halfwayline (@millwalljdb) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia I am trying to watch millwall on the sky sports red button service.....the commentary is of the wrong game.....can you fix please.....this is not effecting sky viewers

  • strutcakes
    Chris 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 (@strutcakes) reported from Lambeth, England

    Called Virgin Media to complain about the TV box not working and to get it removed from my package. Somehow ended up singing another 18 month contract with the TV box included but at a reduced price. Not ideal but not horrendous.

  • AnnaThurmanLDN
    Anna Thurman (@AnnaThurmanLDN) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @virginmedia sort it out! I’ve got Betty next door hollering at me over the fence when I’m trying to get the washing in asking if it’s gone down! #virginmedia #VirginMediaoutage

Virgin Media Issues Reports

  • cbm64
    Chris 🍺 (@cbm64) reported

    @Benleo Some years back I was having awful issues with VirginMedia. On one visit my then 3yr old son looked at the engineer and said in a super clear voice - Sky is even better - the tag line at the time. The chap and I stopped arguing and just started laughing our asses off!

  • Mat_Man_Miracle
    Andy Nightingale (@Mat_Man_Miracle) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia They are without a doubt the worst. I'm in a cable area and they jack the price up every 6/12 months and send a letter out confirming. Had an issue they never, ever sorted despite promises and engineers saying it would be. Never again.

  • 6igantuar
    6igantuar (@6igantuar) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia I left them for BT and never looked back. BT have call centres in the UK. They'll reply to you on here and offer to help but you'll end up getting nowhere as I also did this about 3 times, so I know. Useless company.

  • IAmMattVC
    Matt Valentine-Chase (@IAmMattVC) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia I had a similar issue with plusnet and open reach, still waiting for the fibre to be fitted. I think it's the beginning of the end for this level of poor service, people have had enough.

  • PaulAllen007
    Sir Paul A (@PaulAllen007) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Wait til you try and cancel or move house. They are the absolute pits. Never use Virgin Media people

  • grancake
    cclinton.! (@grancake) reported

    @virginmedia I have had to do a factory reset the lady on the phone,was brilliant but at my age it wasnt it easy now I have to reset all my passwords for Netflix prime etc very bad

  • LWTMartin
    LWT Martin (@LWTMartin) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia I’ve been hearing this for years and as a consequence would never, ever, consider anything from Virginia Media. Doesn’t help you, I know, it’s just a ‘you’re not alone’ type sympathy.

  • deputynclegg
    NC (@deputynclegg) reported

    @Benleo @ChrisSleven @virginmedia I concur......Virgin are crap...and I moved to Sky at the earliest chance I could....but can also say Sky aren't much better - and they both make it as difficult as possible to actually talk to someone if you have a problem - I would say though that Virgin are the worst

  • KathyMi25429227
    Kathy Miller (@KathyMi25429227) reported

    @virginmedia I can't log in because noone will change the outdated email I registered with you 25 years ago so I cannot access onlime... am about to go to Ombudsman as have complained 3 times and nothing done, truly appalling service. Others in my area are moving from Virgin as too unreliable

  • ACforReformUK
    AndyC (@ACforReformUK) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia This "quality" service is endemic in the UK these days, there's no accountability, if you got £50 for every aborted attempt, you can bet they'd get it done 1st time every time. OFCOM should punish these firms with huge fines and bring in accountability, otherwise this will just go on.
