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

    @virginmedia Thanks for trying. Three Exec Dept people in the last 10 days promised to call me back after initial calls - none have. I have put it all in an e-mail against what I believe is my reference number. I want the mobile internet service you've arranged to work.

    @virginmedia We had issues last month, a nice engineer came (Mohamed) and said it was a local problem. I reported it on the phone again on Tuesday (Aqeelah), she said there are local problems (again). I fed up wit this, it’s been a week of impossible internet, day and night!

  • MarkGRyan
    Mark Ryan (@MarkGRyan) reported from Ealing, England

    Once again @virginmedia let us down with internet in W13 area ... not a good service at all

  • 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

    ⚡️TᕼE ᕼYᑭEᖇ⚡️O Índio 🇧🇷🇬🇧🇺🇦 (@the_hyper) reported from Croxley Green, England

    @virginmedia all services are down in Watford/Croxley area! Modem with green light since 6am. Any idea??

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

    @virginmedia any chance of a stable service?!?

  • brobbo55
    robbo (@brobbo55) reported from St Albans, England

    @virginmedia sort out the wifi in AL4. Been down two days now joke of a provider

  • MSiewniak
    Michal Siewniak (@MSiewniak) reported from Welwyn Garden City, England

    Dear @virginmedia & @VirginMediaCC A day to forget, wasn’t it? All day problems with my internet connections. Thousands of people affected. In my case, I needed the internet to work and it seems like that the issue was resolved this afternoon. How can I claim compensation?

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

    @virginmedia Thanks, John. No they didn’t confirm. All they said was that the issue *might* be fixed by August 2nd, which as you can imagine is far from ideal. Meanwhile, I’m also being charged a full month despite not having a reliable connection for over a week.

  • Rebeccadundon1
    Rebecca Dundon (@Rebeccadundon1) reported 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

  • 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!

  • IstvanOFatyol
    Oliver Fatyol (@IstvanOFatyol) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia It is incredible, what you're doing is just pushing the date on your service page to one week to another. We don't have Internet for two months now! What are your engineers doing? I am going to cancel your contract and I will go with an better provider. @virginmedia #virginmedia

  • 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.

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

    Called @virginmedia , now a technician booked. Outages are now common, there’s little communication from @virginmedia on actual status, even the service status page is usually out of date and the call centre staff admitted to me they don’t know what’s going on.

  • manan2661
    Manan (@manan2661) reported from Barnet, England

    Hi @virginmedia . My internet has just completely stopped working today and I have restarted my router number out times today without any luck. Can you please help?

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

    When you’re trying to upload and synch 20gb of wedding photos via a 4g hotspot because your @virginmedia broadband has been down for days on end with useless customer service and you have a deadline. It’s never ending! 😩 #virginmedia #custometservicefail #fail

  • mmpa4
    Mansukh (@mmpa4) reported from Watford, England

    @virginmedia Been a long term customer of Virginmedia and recently renewed contract along with O2 mobile but customer services has gone downhill. Having issues with Wi-Fi,phoned again today and was told technical support will call me by 1:30pm, but no one has bothered.

  • 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…

  • gmkfyi
    Glenn Matthew (@gmkfyi) reported

    @virginmedia @O2 I can only assume the reason I’m getting an IDF-12B error is because I’m now using a Sky connection rather than a Virgin one. Same computer, no VPN… Trying to get into my O2 account btw… which support line do I contact?

  • AlanRob68902430
    Alan Roberts (@AlanRob68902430) reported

    @TheAFC0522 @virginmedia Its grounds to terminate the contract folks you can save lots of money bining these leaches off

  • Dmhches
    Dmh (@Dmhches) reported

    @virginmedia the fact that the red button isn’t working for sky sports on your service means you’re not providing the serving I am paying for. Please confirm I am able to exit my contract with no penalties due to this

  • robincarder
    Robin Carder (@robincarder) reported

    Is this a known issue? Same here for us @virginmedia

  • dpolayah

    @virginmedia is virgin BB down?

  • briamjam
    Jamboy (@briamjam) reported

    Just to.let you know I have successfully agreed a new contract with you happy with the result and over-the-years haven't had any major issues,touch wood of course @virginmedia

  • FrazzzYT
    Frazzz (@FrazzzYT) reported

    Houses before, after and across the street from us have access to @WeAreOpenreach full fibre and all the companies but our block doesn't....like come on! Am kinda sick of how often @virginmedia dies out. On off yet again. Yet again complaint submitted

  • RGE_Art
    Richard Geraint Evans (@RGE_Art) reported

    @JFab208 @virginmedia I hope you don't have to endure the hell that is modern day corporate customer services ...

  • MrMoanivator
    Mr Moanivator (@MrMoanivator) reported

    @virginmedia My broadband hasn't been working since around 11am today. All week, Virgin has said that work was due to be completed in my area around 11:15am today. It's now saying that the hub is the problem. I've restarted and reset it, but it's still not working 🤬

  • GazzaAdams
    Gary Adams (@GazzaAdams) reported

    @UKDan86 @virginmedia I have read the T&Cs, Dan. Working from home isn't the basis of my complaint — paying for a broadband service that's been repeatedly intermittent for four weeks is. Virgin Media themselves acknowledge an ongoing fault. Whether I use my connection for work, Netflix or watching cat videos is irrelevant to expecting the service I'm paying for to actually work.
