    Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia @dpjohnston10 Complaints procedure is non existent. If you phone, promised call back never happens, webform complaint doesn’t work and hasn’t since at least 28/09. Sent letter 3 wks ago - no response, despite website saying response within 48 hours. Ombudsman here we come.

  • Mrspdyer
    Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Yes, we’ve all reported it and service update says fix by 4pm today. Thanks.

  • seanhannam
    seanhannam (@seanhannam) reported from Chesham Bois, England

    Didn’t realised upgrading our @virginmedia internet would cripple my home office. Wireless @HP printer can’t find the network and I have to get new boosters for the other rooms in the house. So frustrating - I’ve wasted so much time trying to sort it all out. To no avail.

  • U2Gorilla
    Snatch (@U2Gorilla) reported from Southall, England

    Possibly the worst service Iv ever experience by @virginmedia signed up to a new contract on 4/08/22. Installation engineer was due today, no contact from virgin. called call centre on the phone for 56min multiple transfers asked to redo everything including provide bank details

    @virginmedia can you confirm if there's an outage in my area (area code 21)?

  • gashead
    Alistair 🏴‍☠️ Burns (@gashead) reported from Hatfield, England

    Used to tell my colleagues on @virginmedia to switch to @BT to overcome reliability issues. Moved house and little choice to pick Virgin. No internet or TV for 7 days, fix due by 1pm today. Queried at 1.30pm and 6.30pm, assured it would be today, told to relax. Frankie says BS.

    David Renton (@david_renty) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia I'd just like to cancel! Nothing personal! But stumbling blocks are being put up and it is tiresome.

  • bendog90
    Ben Shaw (@bendog90) reported 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

  • EnriqueGuadiz
    Enrique Guadiz (@EnriqueGuadiz) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia WiFi is an absolute total **** of a service! Reliable WiFi With the hub 5 bullshit! Should be thrown out of the window! No WiFi /service in HP2!

  • spandya1
    Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported 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?

  • paulusthegrey
    Paul Simmonds (@paulusthegrey) reported 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.

  • yessibelloperez
    Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Last time, our wifi was down for over a week. I spoke to an agent on the phone who was utterly useless. You never offer any solutions. I’m starting to think that the only way for you to take any action is if I cancel my DD.

  • SMillbery
    Spencer Millbery (@SMillbery) reported 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.

  • spandya1
    Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Watford District, England

    @virginmedia broadband is up and down again, today in WD17. Are you continuing to experience general service issues ?

  • seanhannam
    seanhannam (@seanhannam) reported from Chesham Bois, England

    @virginmedia Is this how you treat your ‘priority customers?’ During a cost of living crisis, we have chosen to stay with you, yet you can’t pull your finger out to look after your customers. I work from home but can’t fully use the service I’m paying for due to your incompetence.

  • angelstorm13
    Ella A Cutler (@angelstorm13) reported from Welwyn Hatfield, England

    Yet again dispicable lack of customer service from #virginmedia for the 7+ hr outage. Not even one tweet. Your customer service dept needs sacking! How can you run a company like this and charge us so much! @virginmedia #virginmediadown

  • dip2ooo
    Dipak (@dip2ooo) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @Gusubeda @virginmedia My broadband is also down HA7 0800 status number keep telling me there's no problem in the area

  • PaulswainDJ
    Paul Swain (@PaulswainDJ) reported from Kings Langley, England

    @virginmedia This is boring. I’ll reach out to third parties to resolve my account issue.

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

    @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

  • thefitebegins
    jrd1982 (@thefitebegins) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia Yet again Virgin Media is down and yes I have tried the checker. Why are services with VM constantly going down across the UK?

  • pstaylor1412
    paul taylor (@pstaylor1412) reported

    @virginmedia shocking service !You want to change my elderly mother’s tv package which is far in excess of her needs and charge her extra for it. Fleecing oaps is not a good look after 20 years loyalty we will be cancelling.

  • AngelH71051
    Angel Howland (@AngelH71051) reported

    Tired of paying for multiple subscriptions like Sky, BT Sport, Virgin Media, Now TV, Amazon Prime, Disney+, Apple TV+? I have got the solution. This IPTV @8k_Ultra_View07 offers: • 300,000+ live channels • 65,000+ VODs • PPV events • Netflix • 78,000+ movies

  • s0phtakesphotos
    soph (@s0phtakesphotos) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah, I’ve been doing that… the time just keeps being pushed back but there’s no actual explanation of the issue…

  • DavidBa97629651
    David Bartholo (@DavidBa97629651) reported

    @virginmedia There’s no point in me DM because you won’t change it just for me however I hope you take notice of the number of customers raising this as an issue, I would ask you to consider elderly folks like myself with joint and mobility issues who don’t wish to keep pressing the remote

  • glentfc27
    Neil Skivington (@glentfc27) reported

    @virginmedia That's all well and good but everyone is paying for a service......which we aren't getting presently.

  • conjuredundead
    Conjured Undead 🧟‍♂️ (@conjuredundead) reported

    @virginmedia . Can someone please give me an update on an intermittent service issue dating back to 30/7/26? We’ve been told there’s a service cable issue but no update on a “fix” and the disruption is costing me as I can’t work from home, because broadband is unstable. Thanks.
