  @virginmedia Yes, it’s showing issues but we are still being treated like this is a new issue with no history. 😩

• 
  Paul Simmonds (@paulusthegrey) reported 3 minutes ago from Borehamwood, England

  @virginmedia I think I may have an idea what’s happened to your service in #borehamwood It looks like a kerbside box has been totalled by a drunk driver.

  @virginmedia your business is great when things are working, however I have had terrible service for the last 24 hours- no broadband and differing explanations as to the reason- no follow up and still no connection.. very frustrated this morning as I can’t attend online meetings

  PCPresenter (@PcPresenter) reported 4 minutes ago from Hemel Hempstead, England

  @virginmedia Any chance you can DM me about an issue? Trying to find an avenue to contact you through the website is shockingly ****. What's the point of having an option to contact when it's impossible to find it??

  @MartinSLewis @bbc5live Had replacement windows from a local company 18 months ago and they were excellent but I will tell you the worst people I have ever dealt with - Virgin Media, even worse than British Gas used to be.

  @virginmedia is there a problem impacting broadband in wd17? Services dropped suddenly at around 1:30-1:45pm today.

  Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported 7 minutes ago from Barnet, England

  @virginmedia Customer Service is shocking. It’s now almost 6 hours since I asked on WhatsApp for email address to be corrected and I’m still waiting for a response.

  Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported 7 minutes ago from Watford, England

  @virginmedia …and now download speed is 50-70 mbps as opposed to 500 mbps + before the incident (hard wired to router not over Wi-Fi). Please can you look into this?

  @SilentMugger @virginmedia Yes I'm shocked too, didn't think it would be this long & they best fix it as I can't work and I'm using all my mobile data to try and contact them. Really bad service.

  Rebecca Dundon (@Rebeccadundon1) reported 18 minutes ago from St Albans, England

  Hey @virginmedia I've been on hold for 20 minutes and I'm losing the will to live. Need help with WiFi password

  maureen robert (@morish1) reported 21 minutes ago from Hillingdon, England

  @virginmedia This is false advertising. My broadband goes off more than it’s on and then it is so slow. I have lost count on the times I have called the help line. I have rebooted routinely, it works for a while then off again. I have had enough now as enough is enough!!!

• 
  ᒍᗩᑎE (@gemmak500) reported 23 minutes ago from Chesham Bois, England

  @virginmedia There is no link. No one appears to know what’s going on and there is no ownership or continuity of help. As the paying customer we are supposed to just wait, lose business and accept the situation.

  Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported 23 minutes ago from Barnet, England

  @virginmedia Finally sent letter on 28 September and on checking my account realised you’ve got wrong email address attached to complaint file. Funnily enough you have correct email address for sending bills. 3/

  ᒍᗩᑎE (@gemmak500) reported 26 minutes ago from Chesham Bois, England

  @virginmedia To be honest you probably can’t, I’ve been this route often previously and nothing changes. Made to jump thru the same basic hoops time & again by staff members who don’t understand the systems, it’s a perpetual, frustrating loop. Still my service is dreadful.

  RICHARD GRIFFITHS (@Griffo2018) reported 42 minutes ago from London Colney, England

  @virginmedia Now I am told they will send me a new hub as they do think I have problems T the house . That’s why VM booked a engineer it was not me who did it . Time will tell if the goal post moves again today

• 
  Snatch (@U2Gorilla) reported 42 minutes ago from Southall, England

  Nick Chainey 💙 (@NLFG) reported 43 minutes ago from Hemel Hempstead, England

  @virginmedia I've tried both of those. I was going to restart the router and see if that made any difference. Appreciate the help 👍🏼

• 
  Ben Shaw (@bendog90) reported 45 minutes ago from Shenley, England

  @virginmedia I’m still stuck. No one answering the phone - my internet is down and I can’t get any service .. really need one of your service team to call me please on 07850 647 490

• 
  Spencer Millbery (@SMillbery) reported 45 minutes ago from Harrow Weald, England

  @virginmedia Yes, I’ve done all these. Very frustrating as I only had a new super hub and cabling to house installed 2 weeks ago. Never had such intermittent service in 20 years of using virgin.

  @virginmedia any idea why services are down across the board in WD23 postcode area?

  Serenity Solo Studios (@SerenitySoloDev) reported 6 minutes ago

  Virgin Media may have the best broadband speeds for me, but lying salesmen and Virgins policies really has me thinking about cancelling during this cooldown period. I was told 1000mbps was the maximum speed here. I found out it was 2000mbps. I tried to change as I was unaware of this at the time, due to what the saleman told me, but they wanted to charge me £88 per month or so for the 2gb package when the 1gb only costs £33 per month. Even though the website says £55 per month for the 2gb package. I then asked about the upload spped matching the download speed. At first, I was told this was a different package, not an addon, so it would cost £88 per month in total. What? I then threatened to leave and rejoin with a new package as I was in the cooling off period. I was then told this was an addon for £6 per month. They can't change anything on my package though apparently. It now has to be sent to another team to check through this and I have to wait 5-10 days. This is the most confusing company I have ever dealt with. When joining Sky, I could change my package at any time and still be given the in contract discount. Sky may have slower speeds, but @Virgin have to have to the worst policies that kind of makes me regret changing over. If they say I still have to pay almost triple the cost, I may just take the loss of the broadband speed and move back over to Sky. Virgin are trying to rip me off as their sales representative who came to the door and sold me the package never gave the full information to me and said 1gb was their highest package they had for my area.
