    @virginmedia Looks like there are issues that need to be resolved hopefully by tomorrow.. Is this something that might be fixed sooner and am I able to seek compensation?

    @virginmedia This issue has been going on since August. Loss of power for hours on end is adding up to several days. I am currently on hold which I've been doing for 30 minutes. Shocking @Se7 residents please take note of @virginmedia

    @virginmedia been down for most of the day (thank god for @EE mobile data). No mention of local network issues.

    I've just had to suffer the same 4 songs,1 a poor cover of 'Where my Rosemary goes', on a loop, in 2,45 mins of waiting for @virginmedia to pick up. Within 10 mins of engineer fixing fault, its playing up again. Its also the end of my contract so I want to deal with it.

    @virginmedia No, memory was at zero when I turned the box on & went to recordings yesterday afternoon. Even the planned recordings were missing. It was about 50% used, but I never tried a Factory Reset yesterday, just turned off & on again, hoping that would fix it.

    @virginmedia broadband has been absolutely dire in the last few weeks. Phases of outage or sun 2mbps speeds. Anyone else experiencing similar in SE26 area? Remember it was around cold snap it got bad - maybe affected the infrastructure.

  • _RhysThorne
    Rhys (@_RhysThorne) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia have to be *the* most unreliable WiFi providers. 2 days with no internet and it’s still not working!

  • t3xuga
    𝒯𝑒𝓍𝓊𝑔𝒶 (@t3xuga) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia with the new price increase it states with don't need to pay any cancellation fees. My contract ends on the Summer, if I were to cancel do I need to pay the remaining months?

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

    @virginmedia, your app does not seem to think there's a problem with the internet in area 21. I think different. Can you check?!

  • mariobucolo
    Mario Bucolo (@mariobucolo) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia i have an issue on my broadband...just 2 after i complaint against a openreach engineering. what a coincidence!

  • SandraS80775853
    Mary (@SandraS80775853) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia @Miss_SKM That is correct. What it does not cover is the persistent loss of service since August!!! #se7. Nor does it cover the absolute woeful customer services, and I use that phrase lightly, which @virginmedia is able to offer.

  • 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?

  • joybrenda
    Brenda (@joybrenda) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia help why have you made it so difficult to log a landline vault on line. Need to call, as line out of order since friday. I am certain it's systems fault as display message I have seen on previous occasions.

  • PIPPAaM
    Pippa Moss (@PIPPAaM) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia They keep saying an engineer is coming to fix it. It's down again this evening. 😠SE26 4HN

  • jfcolomer

    @virginmedia what's the reason for the intermittent broadband service in the Charlton #SE7 area? Any ETA when this will be solved?

  • KBHeadteacher

    I wonder if anyone has a #skyglass connected to a #virginmedia broadband? At least with #SkyQ your TV service will be unaffected

    @virginmedia had a phone call from Virgin Technical Support. How can i be sure this is genuine ?

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK Thank you for sharing. I have been meaning to move from virgin media for a while because of their poor customer service and this has decided it for me.

  • Howard1963OT
    Howard Borrington (@Howard1963OT) reported

    @JasonAlderwick @richardbranson Confusing though it is Jason, Richard Branson has never owned Virgin Media. He held a minority stake of roughly 10% and licensed the Virgin brand name to the business until the company was bought out by Liberty Global in 2013.

  • samhardiman92
    Samuel (@samhardiman92) reported

    I have never in my adult life had to deal with a more inept bunch of incompetent people than those who work at virgin media, I wager I would get more sense from an extinct species than I would from their "customer service" department

  • clairebaigent
    Claire Shaw (@clairebaigent) reported

    @virginmedia I will not be sending you a private message because despite repeated calls over the past 2 years you have done nothing to help or sort it out. You’re currently charging a 90 yr old man £160 for services he doesn’t use, so please don’t patronise me.

  • William_fleet_
    Will (@William_fleet_) reported

    @upmyallie This is why my mum left Virgin Media and went over to Vodafone; it is so much better, and we never have any issues.

  • TheEternalJay
    EternalJay (@TheEternalJay) reported

    @TomPickering @EKOcasts @Hyperoptic Virgin Media died on me less than an hour before a broadcast...twice. Forced me to move my entire setup to a different house just so I didn't flake on my commitments. Switched to a different provider immediately after the 2nd incident. Never looked back since.

  • lgwlgwlgw
    LGWLGWLGW (@lgwlgwlgw) reported

    @virginmedia Done this multiple times. Engineers have confirmed there are regular intermittent network outages in my local area which cause broadband to drop out for up to 10 mins at a time. Not good. Also no priority for anyone at Virgin Media to fix the issue any time soon

  • Samet_UK
    Samet (@Samet_UK) reported

    @AmyHeppi @virginmedia Same here. It’s been over 24 hours and my Wi-Fi is still down. I’ve called support twice—they only say there’s an area outage with no updates. The status page isn't helpful too. Really disappointed with Virgin Media. Time to look at other providers.

  • Samet_UK
    Samet (@Samet_UK) reported

    @virginmedia It is still showing the same in status since the early morning. There is no any other update or any estimated time. At least I would expect another update saying about the outage and estimated fix time.
