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

    @virginmedia I’m afraid not. I did ask to speak to a supervisor/manager and they said they would submit this request. My question is: is there actually a fault or is this an ongoing issue? It seems to be the latter, tbh.

  • TimmyLDN
    🦒🤓TimmyLDN🙄🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇦🏳️‍🌈🦒 (@TimmyLDN) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Yes at £37 when as a new customer I could get it for £25. I am happy to stick at the £32 but you are not willing to match.

  • StephenCavinder
    Steve Cavinder (@StephenCavinder) reported from Bricket Wood, England

    @virginmedia do you think it’s acceptable for a customer to be waiting for more than 20 minutes (and still waiting) for one of your agents to answer the phone? #justasking

  • Johnboy82903002
    John carroll (@Johnboy82903002) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia Done that, and still doesn't work

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

    @virginmedia I’ve given up for tonight. I’m struggling to deal with a company that has lied on record and taken money wrongfully out of my account. @MartinSLewis help!

  • Gosbo68
    Grant Osborn (@Gosbo68) reported from Northaw and Cuffley, England

    @Bazza_68 @virginmedia Up. Then down again. That’s the 4th time today.

    Virgin media down all over it seems… need #Internet what’s wrong with you @virginmedia

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

    @virginmedia any chance of a stable service?!?

  • Johnboy82903002
    John carroll (@Johnboy82903002) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Its a fault in the area, I have been given a fix time of 9am on the 19th for the landline and broadband, now my tv has gone down as well

  • spandya1
    Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @virginmedia If you remember I told you that it was likely that work occurring at the cabinet in our street caused our issue. The engineer visited and fixed the issue caused by that work. So, it was an engineer/maintenance caused issue.

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

    @virginmedia Yes there were, we received a text at 2am to say it was (finally) fixed but it isn’t & we are now expected to go through the entire reporting/testing the router process again. No engineer for days.This is NOT a router issue, it’s affecting many homes. #bangsheadonwall

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

    @virginmedia We’ve spoken to eight people to try and resolve our internet issues.We’ve ordered new boosters because the new service isn’t compatible with the old ones.We’re a ‘priority customer’ - the new boosters still haven’t arrived…So frustrating. Your service is appalling.

  • silvergoatish
    The waving mechanical roadgoat™ (@silvergoatish) reported from Camden, England

    @virginmedia Duly noted. I'm not likely to be a customer for much longer though, with your general level of service and pricing.

  • ThomasPirouet
    Thomas Pirouet (@ThomasPirouet) reported from Chesham Bois, England

    @virginmedia is everything ok with the network today? Router has been flashing red on and off all morning, really intermittent connection however nothing shown on the service checker. Done the usual unplugging of the router, checked cables etc however still flashing red, then…

  • 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.

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

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

  • crimimel
    Mel B (@crimimel) reported from Welwyn Garden City, England

    @virginmedia Hope we’re getting a refund for lack of service as daughter is trying to write her 10,000 word dissertation but very difficult to do without internet. Should not advertise deals to new customers if you don’t bother sorting out the network issues. Cancelling

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

    @virginmedia No, I’m trying to find out the status of my complaint received by Virgin on 30 September. I’ve had zero communication or acknowledgment of it.

  • 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?

  • 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!

    It's becoming increasingly clear that @VirginMedia customer service is based on the premise that if you make it excruciatingly difficult to make a complaint and then follow it up, people will simply not bother.

  • KatReynolds5
    Kat Jackson (@KatReynolds5) reported

    @virginmedia internet out again. This is the 5th week now for UB10 area. Still saying fix date of 17th July when it’s the 21st today. Any update please?!!?

  • erm2urm
    Urm (@erm2urm) reported

    Not long upgraded to 360. Is there a reason I need to login to @BBCiPlayer every single time I open it? I can't get into my @DisneyPlus account on one of the boxes. Not too happy with this 360 service atm. Could you help please @virginmedia

  • Jess_Simpson645
    Jessica Simpson 😺🐶🐾 (@Jess_Simpson645) reported

    To @virginmedia- Many thanks to your Technician who came out today following the outage in my area. Although I was back online by this time he checked over all the equipment and settings, and also discovered that the router needed changing-which he did - very polite and efficient man. I don’t use my real name on here for safety and security reasons, but if you want to send me a DM, I will let you know.

    Next time virgin media ring me from Bangladesh or any Asian country im going to put the phone down on them, I can't understand a dam word you are saying 😡 @virginmedia

  • PaulFJonescom
    Paul Jones (@PaulFJonescom) reported

    @virginmedia are totally incompetent. Cancelled my service. Was told I will get a final bill and can ignore my current bill. Now have final bill and have a late payment charge for previous bill added. Cant get through on phone lines. Be wary when cancelling your services people!

  • nickncs_cP
    Nick S. (nickncs) (@nickncs_cP) reported

    @virginmedia something is wrong with your internet network. maybe DNS server issue? some sites down on all devices but able to reach them if using a vpn.

  • octoexp490
    krono aka a dogtor in 2 years (@octoexp490) reported

    @DeviateDefiant @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt Telecom contracts in this country don't make any sense to me. Anywhere else in the world, the more loyal you are to the operator, the better deals they give you to keep you as a customer.

  • NitonCalling
    Rachel (@NitonCalling) reported

    @virginmedia Is there an issue with your email servers? I’m getting the odd few emails but know I’ve not received others and not showing on webmail either

  • DoireSheridan

    @Rugby_Scoop @virginmedia Ireland Derangement Syndrome on full display. Pointing out that a shoulder to the head, where the arm was pre-tucked, should have been a red card, and that slapping the ball down when there was a 2 vs 1 on the outside, should not send a grown-*** man into a fit of hysterics.
