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

    @virginmedia Not good enough! I would believe you if this was the first time it happened but I am not paying £53.75 a month for this awful service and unreliable service… not when there are plenty of providers offering more for less.

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia Once again, your status checker says there’s nothing wrong but I have just called the number provided and was told by an automated messaging say your engineers are working to resolve a very complex issue. This is the second time in less than a month.

  • MisterLeeDaniel Mr Lee Daniel (@MisterLeeDaniel) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Stop calling me then hanging up. That’s rude.

  • MisterLeeDaniel Mr Lee Daniel (@MisterLeeDaniel) reported from London, England

    Please could @virginmedia on 0330 303 5309 stop calling me, then immediately hanging up. That’s rude. I’ve now blocked your number.

  • DrewSalisbury5 Drew Salisbury (@DrewSalisbury5) reported from Barnet, England

    [1] @virginmedia I have not had access to WiFi for a couple of days now. I have checked the cables, rebooted the Hub and run the final diagnostic tests several times. Still nothing. On the one hand, your system tells me that there is a wider broadband issue in the area and […]

  • david_renty 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.

  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia Yep, not good enough. What’s the issue? Why does it keep happening and what are you doing about it? And how are you compensating customers?

  • nicolas_laborie Nicolas Laborie ( He/Him ) (@nicolas_laborie) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Whats is happening ?? Been put in a queue only to have the CV phone put down on me twice without even talking to an operator ? What do I need to do to speak to someone??

  • david_renty David Renton (@david_renty) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia bit of a pain that if you want to cancel a new connection on a weekend then the first line cancellation don't seem to know you can't do this...

  • nicolas_laborie Nicolas Laborie ( He/Him ) (@nicolas_laborie) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Still no broadband and now the estimate is over a week !?! Terrible

  • yessibelloperez 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.

  • KlymkoNataliya Nataliya Klymko 🇺🇦🇬🇧 (@KlymkoNataliya) reported from Southall, England

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

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

    @virginmedia I’ve had REALLY bad connectivity all week. Please can you help? Have reset device to little avail. Ty

  • Mustxkim Mustakim. (@Mustxkim) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia Wi-Fi is SO BAD. I’ve check service status online it says it’s fine but I hasn’t been working for 2 hours now. Wtf is you lot doing. It’s been disturbing for weeks now too.

  • 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.

  • nicolas_laborie Nicolas Laborie ( He/Him ) (@nicolas_laborie) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia still no answers and no broadband - can someone help !? I’m working from home and it’s so frustrating

  • smahes4 Sid M (@smahes4) reported from Chesham Bois, England

    @virginmedia The reason given to us that you don’t want to put extra 10mtr cable to service 3 properties. That’s a shame on you and a classic lie that you say on your advert regarding coverage @richardbranson @Ofcom

  • childhearthos jeremy reynolds (@childhearthos) reported

    @virginmedia There has been days and days with complete intermittent service and days with no service. They tell me the only way to get rid of the fees is by having on three occasions different engineers out but its too late for that I jilust wanted it cancelling. It is virgin who has broken

  • graeme_cobb Graeme Cobb 🇬🇧⚡️🚙 (@graeme_cobb) reported

    @virginmedia Not my fault. Virgin Media should take the cost of a failed service on the chin and not pass it on to your customers.

  • WeedenColin Colin Weeden (@WeedenColin) reported

    @Ogsy_SFC @virginmedia VM can contact me by email about my bill, so why not when there is going to be maintenance? I have asked VM about this, but I don’t expect the management to take a blind bit of notice about customer feedback. The service is shambolic

  • enchanted1966 Helen Stephanie (@enchanted1966) reported

    @_HeatherAshton @virginmedia Think they brought J & J down when they complained . Greedy companies wanting more and more 😠 😡

  • gingfinger Giff 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@gingfinger) reported

    @virginmedia So, the scenario is : Existing VM broadband customer & new O2 contract customer.. is there statutory wait time before o2 service staff can press activate, or even see activate as an option? Or even see that it’s pending or in progress?

  • enty126 Stu Entwistle (@enty126) reported

    @virginmedia No, it doesn't show 'WiFi Max' or agreed credit that's the issue. The pod to my home & I was told Royal Mail or Evri by Sat 15th. Can you resolve this or am I going to be signposted to a telephone number? I totally understand its not your doing I am just fed up of it now.

  • sazmeister88 Sarah 🚩 #WearAMaskYouStupidBastards (@sazmeister88) reported

    @virginmedia no, it never does, virgin have previously advised me that there are a lot more people in central milton keynes using the 4G and that is why it disappears all the time every day, but they're not doing anything about it, but i'm still paying my full bill for data i can't use.

  • sazmeister88 Sarah 🚩 #WearAMaskYouStupidBastards (@sazmeister88) reported

    @virginmedia amazing, so this is just going to continue with me paying my bill in full every month and not getting the service i pay for and there's not even a time limit on how long this problem is going to last, thanks

  • PeteTho90990085 Pete Thomas (@PeteTho90990085) reported

    @virginmedia telephone opertors dont listen so been trying web chat for the past hour. Bill keeps creeping up new wifi is crap. Been withem in its various forms for near 30 years and service is worse than its ever been ......

  • RozBass1969 Roz Page (@RozBass1969) reported

    @virginmedia We are paying u 2 provide a service & part of that is you ensuring we have a working line which a LIFELINE runs off. You have left us without this emergency line for 6 days & refuse to fix it. Let’s just hope there is no medical emergency or @richardbranson u will b responsible
