  mara penzo (@magma62) reported 21 minutes ago from Brentford, England

  @virginmedia I know where to check, thanks! My problem still persist! It's Friday night and I have no Internet?! Why? They have been carrying out works for weeks now. I think I need a compensation. Why am I paying money for no service?

  Stephen Moran (@stephen_j_moran) reported 22 minutes ago from Harrow Weald, England

  And another day has gone by with no landline service from #virginmedia in this part of Harrow HA1 and still the same recorded message saying they've found the problem and are working on it. @virginmedia

  @virginmedia An engineer came today. Issue resolved. If you remember I told you that it was highly probable that work being performed at a cabinet on our street may have resulted in our issue. I also told your telephone support team. That’s exactly what had happened. Appalling service.

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now common, there’s little communication from @virginmedia on actual status, even the service status page is usually out of date and the call centre staff admitted to me they don’t know what’s going on.

  @virginmedia will lose my money as a loyal customer of 20 years standing, by slapping a 120% rise on my next contract due to start in November! Who else has seen such a massive percentage rise?

  @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.

  @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…

  @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

  @virginmedia To be honest you probably can’t, I’ve been this route often previously and nothing changes. Made to jump thru the same basic hoops time & again by staff members who don’t understand the systems, it’s a perpetual, frustrating loop. Still my service is dreadful.

• 
  Snatch (@U2Gorilla) reported 31 minutes ago from Southall, England

  Requested to cancel my contract and told my account doesn’t exist anyway. Thank you Virgin Media.

  @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

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

• 
  Snatch (@U2Gorilla) reported 44 minutes ago from Southall, England

  @richardbranson virgin media U.K. business service is appalling , customer service and tech support are lying, promising callbacks just to get you off the line, 3 weeks no service my business is chaos, my SLA is 12 hours yet no one to talk to fault: F010324227 No one is helping

• 
  Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported 51 minutes ago 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.

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

• 
  ᒍᗩᑎE (@gemmak500) reported 57 minutes ago from Chesham Bois, England

  @virginmedia I don’t doubt it will be fixed eventually but there have been significant issues here for months & I need more info than this. The message on your link hasn’t been updated since PRIOR to being told it was fixed. When reported this morning it was treated with no history.

  seanhannam (@seanhannam) reported 57 minutes ago 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.

  @Ofcom So you're gonna pay those customers for their troubles out of the 28 million? Of course not. Who knows what ******** you're gonna do with the millions, but we can be certain that the people that Virgin Media dicked get nothing.

  @MatthewStadlen @virginmedia Virgin Media are the single most useless, duplicitous, awful company on the planet. I wouldn't piss on them if they were on fire.

  Emmanuel – Big Tech & AI Investor (@EmmanuelInvest) reported 11 minutes ago

  🚨 UK Regulator Fines Virgin Media £28 Million ($37.4M) Ofcom has slapped Virgin Media with a £28 million fine for systematically preventing customers from cancelling contracts over nearly three years (Jan 2022 – mid-Sept 2024). Key Findings: - Deliberate call-dropping tactics - Excessive and unnecessary call transfers - Repeatedly putting customers on hold for no reason Ofcom described the failings as systemic and repeated. Background: Virgin Media is a joint venture between Spain’s Telefónica and Liberty Global. This is the second major fine for Virgin Media recently (previously fined £23.8M in December for issues with telecare customers during landline migration). Impact: Another hit to Virgin Media’s reputation in the UK broadband/mobile market.

  Emma Cowdrill (@CowdrillEmma) reported 13 minutes ago

  @virginmedia my vulnerable 90 yr old mother is one of those caught up in the tactics that caused you to be fined 28m by Ofcom. I still cannot extricate her from her contract or get through to someone who will help. I can't even do the basics and set up a DD!

  @virginmedia please can someone from a UK based call centre call me as I am having serious issues with your services and your staff

  @virginmedia Is there any technical breakdown on BH6 area where no Sky transmission? Or is this an isolated one incident linked to one property? We have no transmission since mid day today, 07/07
