    Hey, ‘RP,’ again, @virginmedia is down. The lack of resilience is shocking and embarrassing for a major broadband provider. #VirginMediaDown #VirginMedia

    Neil Simpson (@nippa77) reported from Swindon, England

    @virginmedia why is it that your service is up and down more than a yo-yo? It’s getting ridiculous now!!!

  • HJMKent
    Howard Martin 🇺🇦🇪🇺 (@HJMKent) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @virginmedia You have just repeated, word for word, the last tweet you sent me, to which I replied! Pointless trying to have any conversation with @virginmedia because it just goes round in circles! The most appalling customer services in UK in my experience! No more tweets from you, please!

    @virginmedia @WaynesWorld20_ How many areas have this 'intermittent' loss of service? O have it in DY6 too.

  • stumccullagh
    Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia But when a contract is agreed like a mortgage or a fixed energy deal surely the agreement should last the full term. I’ve had issues since September & been told I can’t leave due to being under a contract so why should my costs go up when I’ve got an agreement in place until Dec

  • nealesj
    Simon Neale (@nealesj) reported from Swindon, England

    @virginmedia Dear ‘RP,’ I find your tone unacceptable. I don’t care how many times you’ve had to repeat the statement; customers are paying for a service they’ve not been getting, so dial down your level of obnoxiousness please.

  • SusieWJr
    Susan Johnson (@SusieWJr) reported from Swindon, England

    @virginmedia @ste1984r But YOU say 'intermittent' loss when it isn't. It's FULL loss of service. And to only compensate after 2 days is crazy.

  • NickHickey84
    Trickie Dickie (@NickHickey84) reported from Bradmore, England

    @virginmedia a customer of yours for years. Had a cpi increase letter to say leave with out penalty. Competitor massively cheaper than you for faster speeds. Only to be told by a colleague I have to pay £110 to leave today?

  • Stephen12857059
    Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Nobody has called me and the WhatsApp chat is very frustrating and not dealing with the issue. This is very simple, I was sent contract paperwork with an agreed monthly fee of £86.75. Why have I paid two months of excessively higher payments. I should have left VM

    @Tilton247 @virginmedia I had the same for 2 years. Constantly disconnecting on a daily basis . Changed the Hub and it worked straight away. No issues since. Good luck getting a new hub off them though.

    @Angela_Griffin @virginmedia I have the fibre optic broadband for £23.95 month and the customer service is great

  • nealesj
    Simon Neale (@nealesj) reported from Swindon, England

    It looks like @virginmedia name servers are not accessible so no DNS records can be resolved. A major outage for their services. Seems to be no comms from them. @BBCNews are you aware? #VirginMediaDown #VirginMedia

    @virginmedia Unfortunately this is still an issue, comes up saying that we are fetching account details and after 15 minutes Error CS1012 appears, so so frustrating! Been going on since Thursday now!

    @Benleo @virginmedia They've always been ****. Their broadband is down more than the internet in Iran. Toob is way better

  • Monapics
    Monapics.com (@Monapics) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia They have been fined by the mediator in my case but still have not fixed a simple email issue. They have now been pulled up again to get it sorted from last year. Dealing with the Indian call centres have had no progress there, and only one person spoke understandable English

    @jomickane @Benleo @virginmedia Sky is alright, TV too expensive but internet by itself ok price. Good customer support too.

    @Benleo @virginmedia They cannot be worse the Vodafone or BT, maybe as bad, but impossible to be worse

  • tkly57
    Ted (@tkly57) reported

    @virginmedia I have had no TV since Thursday morning. Every year your prices go up above the rate of inflation and the is NO improvement in service. I have no reason to stay with Virgin Media.

    @Benleo @virginmedia Had the same issue with Vodafone and sky. Both companies upsold to me, then they totally let me down when it came to turning connection on. Vodafone was 2 weeks, sky was 4 days. Its not just 1 company. They're all the same. Contacting them is totally disgraceful
