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

    There’s a new Hitron Chita paperweight from @vmbusiness @vmbusinesshelp - it’s expensive but the only thing it can do without going out of service every few minutes

  • ranaraptor Rana Rahman (@ranaraptor) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia Do you have a date/time? What is the tech issue? I’m trying to run a business remotely, and Virgin is severely letting me down unfortunately. #virginoutage #virginmediadown

  • Boubs1985 Kerry Vaughan (@Boubs1985) reported from Addington, England

    Aint it funny how my Internet was good as gold until @virginmedia tried to convince me to upgrade. Now its absolutely terrible 🙄

  • Champs707007 Stephen Champion (@Champs707007) reported from Wandsworth, England

    Again my Virgin Media broadband has shat itself. Shows it’s connected to the net but with zero download zero upload yet service checks says no problems In your area. Can’t wait to leave fed up of this

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

    Shockingly bad experience (again) from @vmbusiness @vmbusinesshelp - “upgrade” yesterday has wiped out my Wi-Fi - engineer coming next week. Couldn’t make it up, these cowboys really are the worst

  • iamAleFerrara Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Can you just send a technician over to us? I’d assume you’d prioritise a customer that has been left with no Internet for 5 days? I’m not going to post the issue on an online forum, I’m asking you to provide support please.

  • wowbaggerish (An)TonyM 🇺🇦 (@wowbaggerish) reported from Epsom and Ewell District, England

    @virginmedia @gosportjack75 Yes. Please ensure you do. It's appalling customer service.

  • emmalouchu Emma Churcher-Holt (@emmalouchu) reported from Camden Town, England

    @BBCWatchdog I was without TV service with Virgin Media for over a week this month, could only use chat bot, eventually a live chat with a person because I took to twitter, but they couldn't help me either. Still waiting for the comp form they said would come automatically.

  • ranaraptor Rana Rahman (@ranaraptor) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia It’s still not working!! I have this message from your site, “There's a broadband issue in SW11 XXX. Thanks for your patience while we work to fix things as quick as we can. You've registered that an area fault causing a loss of broadband service is affecting you.”

  • ZJM_331 CJ (@ZJM_331) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia your service checker isn’t working. Can you please advise of service issues in the N1 area as the broadband has gone down again? Thank you.

  • appariciojunior AJ (@appariciojunior) reported from East Ham, England

    Checked the speed and 150mb I cant. It can be foolish of me but 150? I cant for real. 900mb minimum, my house moves are planned based on fiber connectivity. ps: 150mb from virgin media hahahhahahhahaha everyday in the phone screaming with customer service, nope im good

  • Champs707007 Stephen Champion (@Champs707007) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia It’s now showing there is a problem. It’s been going on for 3 days now being very intermittent but only just started showing there was a problem this morning

  • ranaraptor Rana Rahman (@ranaraptor) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia My broadband is finally back on. But after this latest horrific outage, I am now actively searching for a new provider. #virginoutage

  • Champs707007 Stephen Champion (@Champs707007) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia It’s been erratic all day on both connections and your service check says no issues identified. One minute it’s doing 40-60mbps then it’s just plain dead but shows a connection

  • iamAleFerrara Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Yes I did try to call but couldn’t get hold of anyone after a 20 min wait. As you can see from the screenshot above in previous tweet, every appointment I make gets cancelled. Are you able to do something about this? Any help would be much appreciated

  • emmalouchu Emma Churcher-Holt (@emmalouchu) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia No, I have TV service only and the live chat agent said I would get the compensation form.

  • mihaialaci Mitzy (@mihaialaci) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia They escalated my complaint,but looks like the package is not available to us.When my contact expires will definitely looking at other options as I don’t trust Virgin Media anymore

  • iamAleFerrara Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Hello there, DAY 5 without Internet connection here and I haven’t received any update from you. Can you PLEASE make some clarity on what is going on and when we can expect this to be fixed? Surely you should have sent a technician to check on us by now… Absolutely awful.

  • Champs707007 Stephen Champion (@Champs707007) reported from Wandsworth, England

    Really losing my patience with Virgin media now. Down for 8 days been told 3 times it’ll be fixed within 24 hours but won’t send an engineer out

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

    @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness Ah, so when there will be nothing to do or see you will become interested, is that the customer service ethos at VMB? Staggering, but not surprising

  • Rossi2k Ross Wilcox (@Rossi2k) reported

    @virginmedia I have done the text thing twice now and been put through to the “right department” each time. And each time promised a manager will call me back but call never happens. Why will doing this this time be any different? Why can a manager just not call me as promised?

  • thira93 حرا (@thira93) reported

    @KamranKhalid02 @Akhund_Bilal1 @bt_uk Idk, maybe this area is not great for WiFi 😓 but honestly we had virgin media before and it was never this bad!

  • CraigyP83 Craig Paterson (@CraigyP83) reported

    ******* raging that I can’t watch Real-Barca because @virginmedia are tinpot as ****

  • Kellygr15 Kelly gray A to be 👰 (@Kellygr15) reported

    @virginmedia Can someone please help, paid to upgrade my package to have sports this afternoon and it’s still not updated 😢

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported

    @virginmedia And that's your problem, garbage like that link, I was on the phone for 1 hour on Wednesday to your "support" 20 mins was telling me I haven't phoned since 2011 then the phone went dead, after 1 hour no phone call back though @virginmedia crap, crap, crap, "technical" my bottom.

  • classicm Mike Moody (@classicm) reported

    @virginmedia having real problems with catch up. 6 weeks now. Both boxes saying network connection fault and can’t watch any catchup. Constantly dropping out. All other services ok. Help!

  • IsMiseMarcas Marcas (@IsMiseMarcas) reported

    @nordyteacher @BOD80 Oh god Virgin Media was just AWFUL in D3. But up in Derry at the moment, and VM is fantastic up here!

  • katz404 Cathy Briggs (@katz404) reported

    @GaryWBacon @virginmedia They have been a nightmare!!! Called them four times about speed. Apparently the speed they advertise only applies to devices attached directly through ethernet cable, wtf. I thought buying a new router might be better but I might just change too. Who you change to?

  • MrAngryPantz Andrew Fortescue (@MrAngryPantz) reported

    Hey @virginmedia! I arranged a TV360 upgrade. Got a text the next day cancelling it. Phone support said it wasn’t cancelled. Then got another email this morning saying my package had changed and has reverted back. What’s going on please? I’m getting tired of going from one person

  • yvonnehart90 Yvonne (@yvonnehart90) reported

    @virginmedia i am moving home and need to cancel my contract!
