  • OrrinEdenfield Orrin Edenfield, an 🇺🇸 living in 🇬🇧 (@OrrinEdenfield) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia Well, I'm nearly certain my issues were caused or fixed by the gentleman in the Virgin Media van outside my residence. All seemed to be well yesterday afternoon and evening (and today so far).

  • czar_nik Dr Nick (@czar_nik) reported from London, England

  • sumitra094 Sumitra (@sumitra094) reported from Watford, England

    I’ve had no issues with you @virginmedia but I want to watch the @England game tonight and there is no way to reach you. We have all been working from home and doing our job. Why can’t you???? I never complain but I’ve been trying to get in touch for days now!! #virginmedia

    Virgin TV GO app down @virginmedia

  • spookyjulie Sarah Elizabeth Cox (@spookyjulie) reported from London, England

    @CateSevilla @virginmedia They then tried to fine me for not sending their 'hub' back and refused to refund the house move cost I'd paid a few months earlier. So so incompetent! SO stressful when all of us work from home too. I moved to TalkTalk & is cheaper and no problems so far, at least :)

  • enders1 Richard Endacott 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇬🇧 (@enders1) reported from Windsor, England

    @virginmedia 4 complete service failures in our area in 6 weeks, do you think this is acceptable?

  • enders1 Richard Endacott 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇬🇧 (@enders1) reported from Windsor, England

    Dear @virginmedia we have lost service on a Saturday night at 7pm, we were watching @DisneysMulan on @Disney for which we have paid £20. My children are very upset and your call centre is closed. I suggest you contact me urgently. Thank you

  • waabbaC Waqas Abbasi (@waabbaC) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia can someone please contact me, I have had no BB service since Friday. I’m extremely disappointed with ur customer service. I have been trying to get hold off someone from ur customer service since last two weeks with no luck. Your chat bots are useless. #virginmedia

  • iamninapina Nina Davis (@iamninapina) reported from Harpenden, England

    @virginmedia your service is shocking. Constant faults with broadband and no way of speaking to anyone to get it resolved

  • OrrinEdenfield Orrin Edenfield, an 🇺🇸 living in 🇬🇧 (@OrrinEdenfield) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia internet was off for an hour or more, then worked for a hot 5 minutes and now is down again.

  • jorgeml Jorge Martínez López (@jorgeml) reported from London, England

    @JamesJWalsh @virginmedia That's to discard physical problems with your cable.

  • jorgeml Jorge Martínez López (@jorgeml) reported from London, England

    @JamesJWalsh @virginmedia Don't mention the word WiFi, your problem is the WAN connection. Plug you laptop via the LAN cable when testing / calling them.

  • jorgeml Jorge Martínez López (@jorgeml) reported from London, England

    @JamesJWalsh @virginmedia I used to be a customer before moving to Lewisham and left them because I was getting about 10% of the contracted speed and they were taking months to resolve it. They ended up admitting it was oversubscription.

  • JamesJWalsh James-J Walsh (@JamesJWalsh) reported from London, England

    Hey @virginmedia are there problems in #Lewisham? My WiFi keeps dropping out regularly. Tried ringing CS. Closed.

  • jorgeml Jorge Martínez López (@jorgeml) reported from London, England

    @JamesJWalsh @virginmedia The router has a couple of pages that are useful, one has the logs (check the error timestamp matches when your connection went down). There is also a more technical page that shows the uplink / downlink channels, have a look and check there is some voltage on them.

  • karenbull2301 Karen Bull (@karenbull2301) reported from Shenley, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I hope I have the right tweet address to beg for some help. I need a number urgently that will get me to someone to talk about a historic mobile bill. I can’t find anything in line to help me and I’ve spent hours trying to speak to someone

  • DebsySmith Debs smith (@DebsySmith) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia need to find out who to contact about bad single on my mobile????

  • czar_nik Dr Nick (@czar_nik) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia hello, our Internet has been down for over 4 hours now in Barking. Is there any update on this or when we can expect to have functional Internet back? Its not the first time this has happened and we're reaching the end of our tether!

  • rmjfletcher shannon (@rmjfletcher) reported

    @virginmedia my wifi keeps freezing but you’ve not updated your service page to reflect these issues, how can I get this in writing to confirm to my work please?

  • argen Bruno Belcastro (@argen) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, I'm being charged more than a contract that I recently signed and there's no option to contact you on the site. Can you please help?

  • lisalouann Lisa Martin 🤍🖤 (@lisalouann) reported

    @virginmedia 1) After being on the phone for over an hour explaining our issue of no WIFI upstairs, Tivo box not working properly and not able to view Prime or On Demand Live Events we’ve purchased, the polite Virgin rep needed to get authority from a Floor Manager to book

  • StuartAParker Stoo Parker (@StuartAParker) reported

    @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness OK, I’ll play the game again. I’ll report back here with how well they did resolving the issue.

  • nanipals Dr. Renuka Mudunuri (@nanipals) reported

    @virginmedia When myself and my wife both are in teams or zoom call, we are facing issues after a few minutes. We are also finding issues when connected to VPN. Your technical service guy told us that you don’t support using VPN Is it correct?

  • NoswadLegin Nigel (@NoswadLegin) reported

    @virginmedia what are the issues with the broadband/ internet / WiFi in the Caterham area? How long until they are fixed?

  • nanipals Dr. Renuka Mudunuri (@nanipals) reported

    @virginmedia , why internet is more unstable when we are in zoom or teams call? What is the use of 350MBPs or 1GBPs connection? Most unreliable provider.

  • lisalouann Lisa Martin 🤍🖤 (@lisalouann) reported

    @virginmedia 4) I will be cancelling my contract and moving to Sky as you are not providing the full service we are paying for. From a very dissatisfied and unhappy Virgin customer with over 16 years’ loyal service to you! Please respond.

  • StuartAParker Stoo Parker (@StuartAParker) reported

    @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness This is beyond a joke. Contacted CC and explained. The response? “Sorry to read this Stuart, give the guy’s a faults a crack at fixing the issue” with a link to check outages!!! And a suggestion to contact the faults team! OMG, you are beyond incompetent!

  • nanipals Dr. Renuka Mudunuri (@nanipals) reported

    @virginmedia , All guys we realised a new fact from VirginMedia. They are saying that We should not use VirginMedia broadband for work from home as we are using VPN. The most unstable,and unreliable service in UK.
