    @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?

    @virginmedia Abysmal service. Pay a premium for this stuff and nothing but aggro; TV freezes, ages to boot up… been sat here 20 minutes and still “starting up”. **** show.

    @YodelOnline OK have sent DM with details of the *Three* shipments @virginmedia have now sent due to their faulty software or equipment none of which shipments have been provided with a two hour delivery window by the carrier @YodelOnline as promised. Truly awful customer service.

    @virginmedia Well, no one bothered to turn up, called to chase and still not here past the time they told me on the phone they would arrive. Usual excellent service I have come to know from you 🥳

  • JaneCommon
    Jane Common (@JaneCommon) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia hi, internet down in se5. A bit of a disaster for me as I have so much work on. Could you ask someone to check it?

    @virginmedia It has just come back on. The annoying thing is your website said no problems, so I went through the usual, unplugging, checking cables etc. only for the website to be updated later. I should have learned by now.

    @virginmedia @massrossini1 System was restored this AM then stopped again at 4pm cannot do no work at all and customer service lines busy

  • 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.

  • AdamHMatthews
    Adam H-Matthews (@AdamHMatthews) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia How does £8.40 a day cover 2 people unable to work for a full day? Still no contact from Virgin engineer or any comment on what the issue is? The time to fix the issue just keeps getting later.

  • Keldavey
    hippychic (@Keldavey) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia @YogaBear2 Some? Everyone I know With a virgin account in Bromley having problems today including myself. Not worked all day. What's happening, have you been hacked?

  • 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.

  • millwalljdb

    @philclarke0170 Virgin media seems to be the problem

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

    @virginmedia What does an area outage mean? I pay Virgin about £150 a month for services. This is over the odds but I thought I was getting a reliable service and so went with it.

  • Biggsy58
    Bernie Biggs (@Biggsy58) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @virginmedia putting their tariffs up by 17.3% from 1st April - that’s 3.9% over the Retail Price Index Inflation of 13.4%…people getting nowhere near this sort of increase in their pay packets…hang your heads in shame especially in a cost of living crisis.

    @virginmedia You're internet is down *again* in sw9 and your internet service checker page does not work on mobile phones

  • ninepine
    Mike Fuller (@ninepine) reported from Banstead, England

    @virginmedia Talked 150 who managed to change one error message for another! Total #fail so far by @virginmedia

  • ninepine
    Mike Fuller (@ninepine) reported from Banstead, England

    @virginmedia Callback should have happened days ago. Now the person on 150 says that you failed to complete a process. They then tried to miss-sell me an upgrade to my package. Still not fixed but "should be" in a few hours! I doubt it. Abysmal deceptive service.

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

    @redheadlass1402 @virginmedia We’ve got the business service but it’s no better. They don’t seem to have any proactive monitoring or fault prevention and pretty much don’t care. They have a 3 hour service level that passed 12 hours ago, totally useless bunch of money-grabbers

    @virginmedia Please explain why your Virgin checker site was down too. Disgraceful

    @virginmedia And idea what you have not replied to my post and now ignoring my DMs? Breach of contract and you are now in breach of your complaint procedure

    @virginmedia @Carolestfc1 I havelogged a complaint, as paying for service we aren't receiving from Virgin Media

    @DavidPaintdw @virginmedia Just browsing different packages as mine has run out with my provider. Won’t be touching these now - seems a lot and poor contract agreements.

  • colonbarbarian
    Captain Howdy (@colonbarbarian) reported

    @Dratcliffe1986 @virginmedia @ExeterBub You need to first register the outage through Virgin media itself. I do this everytime there is an outage. Virgin will usually then give you any compensation, if they don't, then report to Ofcom.

  • dean_risley
    Dean Risley (@dean_risley) reported

    @virginmedia my wireless router was upgraded by you because it was old. Installed new & now have less wifi coverage at my home than before. Engineer attends & recommends 2 boosters, have now spoken to customer services on several occasions & made a complaint but still waiting !!

  • chrishenry88
    Sir Christopher (@chrishenry88) reported

    @virginmedia my services will be suspended because of an outstanding bill , however , this is not the first time , that the bill was paid , screenshots taken and now it’s up to Virgin media . Why should I be paying for a shoddy service , at best , anyway ?

    @RJAldous1 @virginmedia Oh dear you got the scammers. Their help dept is shown on the profile

    Quick update following my post - I did have a DM discussion with VirginMedia. Apparently all refunds are process via cheque payments and posted to you - and I’ve got to wait up to 45 days - yes 45 days for the cheque. If I’ve not received it by then I’ve got to contact them again and they will investigate why - probably waiting another 45 days. This is disgusting behaviour @virginmedia, despite it being so called company policy. You took £1,070 from our account despite assurance the equipment return date had been extended, causing us to be overdrawn, yet you now hang on to our money for up to 45 days! It doesn’t take 45 days for a computer to print a cheque!
